FOOD SERVICE EQUIPMENT

It is our policy to build equipment which is design certied by U.L., A.S.M.E., N.S.F. and C.S.A. However, a continuing program of product improvement

makes it necessary to submit new models to the agencies as they are developed and consequently not all models bear the appropriate agency labels at all times.

NOTES: Allow 12” (305mm) spacing on left and 6”
(152mm) spacing on right if height of adjoining wall or
equipment exceeds 29” (737mm). Matching spacer
cabinets, either 12” (305mm) or 6” (152mm) wide, are

available and should be specied.

Interior dimensions of cooking compartment:
28-3/8” Wide x 12-34” High x 21-1/4” Front-to-Back
730mm Wide x 324mm High x 540mm Front-to-Back

The only available space to supply utilities to the boiler

is 6” (152mm) height between the oor and the cabinet

base.

CAUTION: Before connecting water to this unit, have
water supply analyzed to make sure hardness is no
greater than 2.0 grains and pH level is within the range
of 7.0-8.5. Water which fails to meet these standards
should be treated by installation of a water conditioner.

EQUIPMENT FAILURE CAUSED BY INADEQUATE
WATER QUALITY IS NOT COVERED UNDER WAR­RANTY.
