2. Installation

This section provides a summary of the procedures necessary for proper installation of your new Giles equip­ment, Model WOG-MP or WOG-MP-VH. To prevent personal injury or equipment damage, please ensure the
following steps are taken.

2-01. Location

NOTE:

• The decibel level of the hood on the WOG-MP-VH when operating is approximately 65 dB’s.

CAUTION

!

• DO NOT MODIFY, ALTER OR ADD ANY ATTACHMENTS TOTHIS EQUIPMENT

1. Keep the appliance and surrounding area free and clear from combustible materials. See Section
1-03.01 and Section 1-03.02.

2. Please retain this manual for future reference.

3. Please note wiring diagrams for this unit are located on the rear of the unit. Ensure the
wiring diagram corresponds with the model being operated.

4. Please ensure this unit is electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of
local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-1999.

5. Please provide adequate room for servicing and proper operation of this appliance. Also, provide
adequate ventilation in the operating area where necessary.

6. Always consult an electrician or other qualified individual prior to installation.

7. Ensure voltage and amperage supplied to the unit are as specified on the fryer’s rating plate.

8. Make sure this unit is in a secure position and will not move. Locking casters are supplied on this
unit and must be placed in the locked position during unit operation.

9. Based on local codes, room size and appliances in use, exhaust ventilation may be required for the
WOG-MP-VH. This often can be accomplished by the installation of an exhaust fan in the room in
which the hood is installed. To determine the requirements for your installation, supply the HVAC
dealer the following information.

a. The WOG-MP-VH Hood exhausts between 267 to 382 cfm of air.

b. The average temperature of the air being exhausted from the Hood, after four (4) hours of contin­uous frying, is approximately 90°F (32°C).

10. This appliance is to be installed, used and maintained in accordance with the Standard for
Ventilation Control, and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations, NFPA 96.

The above steps will help to ensure safe and proper installation of your fryer. If you have any questions con­cerning these procedures, contact your local Giles representative or other qualified service person.
