Single Speedcook Installation
30"
21"
36-3/4" Min.
Required
Order a 30-in. wide single oven cabinet or cut the
opening in a wall to dimensions shown.
The rough opening must be:
• Depth - 19 in. min.
• Width - 28-1/2 in. min.
• Height - 21 in. min.
• 36-3/4 in. from the floor to the cutout is
required.
• These ovens require 3/4-in. overlap on each
side, top, and bottom of the cutout.
• Oven overlaps will conceal cut edges on all
sides of the opening.
When installed over a single oven or a warming
drawer, allow at least 2 in. between the two
openings. This separation will provide clearance
for bottom overlap of the speedcook oven and top
overlap of the single oven or warming drawer.
• Construct a solid oven floor of 3/8-in. min. thick
plywood supported by 2 x 4 or 1 x 2 runners
on all sides.
• The support must be level and rigidly
mounted, flush with the bottom edge of the
cutout.
WARNING: For personal safety, the mounting
surface must be capable of supporting the cabinet
load, in addition to the added weight of this
approximately 100-lb. product plus additional oven
loads of up to 50 lb., or a total weight of 150 lb.
