INTRODUCTION

Hatco Portable Lamp Warmers are designed to hold
your food products at serving temperatures without
affecting quality.

The LW-2 model incorporates a specially designed
stand that keeps food holding pans above the
countertop, providing an effective insulation to
prolong serving times. The base of the LW-2 holds
full-size and half-size Gastronorm pans of
appetizers, chicken wings or other hot foods.

The LW-3 model can be used as a stand alone unit
and placed above food holding pans, or it can be
mounted on top of the Hatco GRSDH-36
Merchandising Display Warmer to provide additional
warming space above the unit. Special mounting
brackets are included with the LW-3.

This manual provides the installation, safety and
operating instructions for the Portable Lamp

Warmers. We recommend all installation, operating
and safety instructions appearing in this manual be
read prior to installation or operation of your Hatco
Portable Lamp Warmer. Safety instructions that
appear in this manual after a warning symbol

and the words WARNING or CAUTION printed

in bold face are very important. WARNING
means there is the possibility of serious personal
injury or death to yourself or others. CAUTION
means there is the possibility of minor or moderate
injury. CAUTION without the symbol signifies the
possibility of equipment or property damage only.

Your Hatco Portable Lamp Warmer is a product of
extensive research and field testing. The materials
used were selected for maximum durability,
attractive appearance and optimum performance.
Every unit is thoroughly inspected and tested prior
to shipment.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT! Read the following important safety instructions to avoid personal injury or
death, and to avoid damage to the equipment or property.

Genuine Hatco Replacement Parts are
specified to operate safely in the
environments in which they are used. Some
aftermarket or generic replacement parts do
not have the characteristics that will allow
them to operate safely in Hatco equipment. It
is essential to use Hatco Replacement Parts
when repairing Hatco equipment. Failure to
use Hatco Replacement Parts may subject
operators of the equipment to hazardous
electrical voltage, resulting in electrical shock
or burn.

CAUTIONS

To avoid injury or damage, locate the unit at
the proper counter height, in an area that is
convenient for use. The location should be
level to prevent the unit or its contents from
accidentally falling, and strong enough to
support the weight of the unit and food.

Unit is not weatherproof. For safe and proper
operation the unit must be located indoors
where the ambient air temperature is a
minimum of 70°F (21°C) and a maximum of
85°F (29°C).

CAUTIONS

Use only non-abrasive cleaners. Abrasive
cleaners could scratch the finish of your unit
marring its appearance and making it
susceptible to soil accumulation.

Damage to countertop material caused by
heat generated from Hatco equipment is not
covered under the Hatco Warranty. Contact
the manufacturer of the base material for
application information.

WARNINGS

Plug unit into a properly grounded electrical
outlet of the correct voltage, size, and plug
configuration. If the plug and receptacle do
not match, contact a qualified electrician to
determine the proper voltage and size, and
install the proper electrical outlet.

To avoid any injury, turn the power switch
OFF and unplug the unit from the power
source and allow to cool completely before
performing any maintenance or cleaning.

For safe and proper operation, the unit must
be located a reasonable distance from
combustible walls and materials. If safe
distances are not maintained, discoloration or
combustion could occur.

To avoid electric shock or personal injury, do
not steam clean or use excessive water on the
unit.

The unit is not waterproof. To avoid any injury
or damage DO NOT submerge in water. Do not
operate if it has been submerged in water.

Some exterior surfaces on the unit will get
hot. Use caution when touching these areas
to avoid injury.

To prevent any injury or damage to the unit do
not pull unit by power cord.

To prevent any injury, discontinue use if
power cord is frayed or worn.

Only light bulbs which meet or exceed N.S.F.
standards, specifically designed for food
holding areas must be used. Breakage of light
bulbs not specially coated could result in
personal injury and/or food contamination.

If service is required on this unit, contact your
Authorized Hatco Service Agent, or contact
the Hatco Service Department at 800-558-0607
or 414-671-6350; fax [phone] or
International fax [phone].

This product has no “user” serviceable parts.
To avoid damage to the unit or injury to
personnel, use only Authorized Hatco Service
Agents and Genuine Hatco Parts when
service is required.
