Equipment Description

The Groen TA/2 assembly is an electrically powered mixer with dual counter rotating agitators, which is incorporated into Groen kettles of 20 or 40 quart capacity.

The agitator frame is constructed of tubular stainless steel and fitted with scrapers. It is easily removed for cleaning.

For a description of the kettle component of your cooker/mixer, see the separate kettle manual.

Installation and Start-Up

WARNING

TURN OFF POWER AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER PRIOR TO INSTALLATION.

THE MIXER MUST BE INSTALLED BY PERSONNEL WHO ARE QUALIFIED TO WORK WITH ELECTRICITY. IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN RESULT IN INJURY TO PERSONNEL AND/OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.

ANY MECHANICAL OR ELECTRICAL CHANGE MUST BE APPROVED BY THE GROEN FOOD SERVICE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT.

Your Groen mixer has been test operated at the factory and is furnished with all internal wiring. It is complete and ready for final connection. A wiring diagram is furnished at the rear of this manual.

A. Installation is as follows:

1.Set the cooker/mixer in place and level it. If the mixer is a tilting model, confirm that there is enough rear or side clearance, depending on model, and overhead clearance to tilt the mixer safely through its entire tilting range. Provide enough clearance to permit access for service as well. Fasten the cooker/mixer to the floor or deck to reduce chances that the unit could tip over if unit is provided with flanged feet.

2.Provide the proper electric power supply as specified on the electrical information plate attached to the mixer. Observe local codes and/or The National Electrical Code in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition. The installation must conform to the code that has the more strict requirements.

3.TA/2 mixer requires a seperate 120V, 60Hz, 15 Amp outlet. Unit is provided with a 6 ft. long cord and grounded plug.

WARNING: DO NOT cut off the ground plug.

4.Electrical service for the kettle will require a separate connection. See the specific kettle manual.
