4.3 CONNOISSEUR 825™

4.3.1 Installation

Connoisseur 825 Above Counter Installation

• Select a location that is near an electrical outlet� Also, consider proximity to

ingredients, and patrons as well as available counter space�

• Place the blender on the counter in a spot where the air intake vents on thesides

and exhaust on the back of the blender are unobstructed�

• Ensure there is enough room above and around the unit to allow forunhampered

movement of the sound enclosure (see Figure 4 formeasurements)�

• Plug the unit into an outlet with appropriate electrical protection�

Connoisseur 825 In-Counter - Preparation for Installation

Note: You may locate your Blendtec Connoisseur 825 in the same space asyour previous Blendtec in-counter blender. Just remember to ensure proper spacing for the sound enclosure (see Figure 4 for measurements).

• Identify the desired blender location� Consider proximity to ingredients, and

patronsas well as available counter space� Also, ensure that an electrical outlet is

readily accessible�

• Ensure the location meets all dimensional requirements (see Figures 4 and 5)�

• The countertop can be no thicker than 0�75” (1�9 cm)� A thicker countertop will

obstruct motor ventilation�

• If installing more than one blender, allow 14” - 16” (35�6 - 40�6 cm) of center-to-center

blender spacing�

• If installing a sound enclosure, allow a clearance of at least 5” (14 cm) from the

sound enclosure to the wall and 26” (66 cm) from the countertop to any over-the-

counter cabinetry�

• Ensure lower cabinetry allows adequate airﬂow�

• The blender draws ambient air into the vent holes located on the upper sides of the

motor and then evacuates hot air through the vents on the bottom of the motor� For

the motor to cool properly, a sufﬁcient amount of air must be able to circulate around

the motor�

• There should be at least 6” (16�5 cm) of space from the countertop to the next lower

shelf of the cabinet, leaving a minimum space of 3” (7�6 cm) between the bottom of

the motor and the lower shelf� Cabinetry should not be closed; it should allow air to

ﬂow freely from the outside to the inside of the cabinet space�

• Plastic bags, cups, and so forth, should not be stored closer than 3” (7�6 cm) fromthe

bottom of the motor�

• Cut a hole in the countertop 4 ⅜“ (11�1 cm) wide and 5 ⅞” (14�9 cm) long (see the

countertop hole template in Appendix A)� Ensure that the 4 ⅜” (11�1 cm) sides are

parallel with the machine operator�

Note: Double check to ensure that all space requirements and measurements are correct BEFORE cutting.
