LOCATION
INSTALLATION
Immediately after unpacking the oven, check for possible shipping damage. If the
oven is found to be damaged, save the packaging material and contact the carrier
within 15 days of delivery.
Prior to installation, test the electrical service to make sure that it agrees with the
speci cations on the machine data plate located at the lower outside corner of
the oven.
The oven must be installed on a level surface. If permanently plumbing the sump
drain output, the oven must also be installed within 5 feet of an open drain. The
installation location must allow adequate clearances for servicing and for proper
operation. Suitable space is needed for the grease container, and for access at the
doors. For stand*, stacked and countertop con gurations, the minimum clearance
on the right side for plumbing and electrical connections is 3". (*Note: the sump
drain output cannot be dropped through into stand on grease assist models and
requires 3" clearance. 0" clearance is only available on non-grease assist models
using out-of-sight drop through utility connection into stand accessory.) The rotary
oven must not be installed in high-moisture environments such as meat room or
where high pressure cleaning is used.
LEGS, CASTERS OR STAND ACCESSORIES
A set of four 4" tall legs is available as an accessory. Casters are included with the
stacking kit accessory. An oven stand accessory is available; the oven is mounted
on top of the stand.
Tethering is required for units equipped with casters, either on a stand or
stacked.
Refer to the Stand or Stacking Kit Instructions for additional installation
information.
Oven comes standard with utility connections on the right side (Figures 1 & 2).
A drop-through utilities relocation kit and additional instructions are included with
the stand accessory.
Note: Non-Grease-Assist models allow out-of-sight drop-through utility
connection (E1, P1) into stand accessory.
Grease Assist models only allow (E1, P2) to drop through into stand
accessory. Sump drain output (P1) cannot be dropped through into stand
on Grease Assist models.

Electrical Connection
Electrical and grounding connections must comply with the
applicable portions of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, latest
edition, and/or other local electrical codes.
Disconnect the electrical power supply to the machine and
follow lockout / tagout procedures.
The electrical connection is E1 (Figures 1 and 2 ). Make sure that the electrical
power supply agrees with the speci cations on the oven data plate. Refer to the
wiring diagram located inside the side panel.
Connect the power supply to the terminal block as shown on the wiring diagram.
Inspect and check all wiring and terminal connections for tightness and proper routing
away from any moving parts or pinch points. Carefully replace side panels.
Field wire electrical connection is 11/4" and/or 11/2" knockout (strain relief not
supplied).
Stacked units must be wired independently.

PLACING THE ROTOR IN THE OVEN
Do not wrap the rotor or any other parts inside the oven with aluminum
foil. Soft metals can react with oven cleaners, and hazardous interactions can
result.
The rotor must properly engage with the drive mechanism. Orient the rotor so that the
end plate with square drive slots is on the same side of the oven as the drive arm.
STEP 1: Stop the drive arm so it is in the down position (Figure 4).
STEP 2: Place the rotor shaft onto upper notch of support bearing
on the non-drive side of the oven (Figure 5).
Figure 5
Figure 4
STEP 3: Place the drive side of the rotor shaft on the drive arm
support notch (Figure 6).
STEP 4: Turn the rotor, lining up the square drive slots on
the rotor end plate with the pins on the drive arm
(Figure 7).
STEP 5: Nudge rotor toward the drive arm. Non-drive end
of rotor shaft falls into the lower portion of support
bearing hub (Figure 8). Drive end of rotor shaft is driven
into center hole of drive arm.
STEP 6: Rotor is now in normal operating position (Figure 9).

BEFORE FIRST USE
Oven must be burned in to release any odors that might
result from heating the new oven surfaces.
1. Wipe off oven and accessories with a damp or clean
soapy cloth, both inside and outside (Figure 11).
Wipe clean any soapy residue with a clean damp
cloth; allow to dry.
2. Operate oven at maximum temperature setting of
482°F for 45 minutes. Smoke with an unpleasant
odor will normally be given off during this burn-in
period.
