INTRODUCTION

The Hatco Thermo-Finisher is designed to rapidly
heat or thermalize a range of food products which
allows operators to serve customers faster, thereby
improving customer satisfaction. The Thermo-Finisher
is perfect for melting toppings or finishing soup
and foods like Mexican entrees, nachos and potato
skins. It also thermalizes frozen foods such
as appetizers, french fries and pizza. Thermo-Finisher
can also be used to heat plates prior to serving.

This manual provides the installation, safety
and operating instructions for the Thermo-Finisher Food
Finisher. We recommend all installation, operating
and safety instructions appearing in this manual be read
prior to installation or operation of your Hatco Food

Finisher. 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 Thermo-Finisher Food Finisher 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

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 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.

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. Do not locate unit under shelving or closer
than 12" (305 mm) from the ceiling.

Allow a minimum of 1" (25 mm) clearance along
the sides. Allow a clearance of 26" (660 mm) along
the front and rear discharge (if equipped)
to ensure proper operation and safety.

Model TF-2030 is designed for “pass-through”
use only. To avoid burning or charring
of materials, adequate clearance must
be maintained from front and back openings.
Do not install any closer than 26" (660 mm)
from either opening.

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

Unit is not waterproof. DO NOT submerge
in water. Do not operate if it has been submerged
in water. Do not steam clean the interior or flood
with water or liquid solution.

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

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].

CAUTIONS
Unit is not weatherproof. For safe and proper
operation locate the unit indoors

where
the ambient air temperature is a minimum
of 70°F (21°C).

To avoid any injury or damage to the unit
do not operate appliance without installation
of supplied legs.

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

DO NOT use “Pyrex” glass plates or serving
pieces in the finisher. “Pyrex” glass may break
causing personal injury and/or food
contamination.

Plate/tray will be very hot upon removal;
use oven mitt, protective clothing, or pan gripper
to remove.

Do not remove the glass from the unit for cleaning
purposes. Doing so may cause injury or damage
to the unit.

To avoid any 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.

Do not place anything on top of the unit: doing
so could damage the unit or subject personnel
to injury.

DO NOT use paper or plastic serving pieces
in the finisher. These materials may melt or burn
causing a fire hazard and/or food contamination
and may damage the unit.

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

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNINGS
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 Replacement Parts
when service is required.

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
Do not place any objects on the metal rack during
preheat. Doing so will most likely over-cook
the product.

Use only non-abrasive cleaners. Abrasive cleaners
could scratch the finish of your Thermo-Finisher,
marring its appearance and making it susceptible
to dirt accumulation.

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