ILLUSTRATIONS AND SCHEMATICS Model 1529 OWNER'S MANUAL

AVAILABILITY AND TESTING:

A prospective customer may see a unit in operation as follows:

• At a dealer’s showroom,

• At an existing installation,

• At the TOASTMASTER® manufacturing facility.

If contacted, TOASTMASTER® will provide information on the nearest location and
availability. In the event that a customer desires to test a unit at his place of business
arrangements can be made based on a specifically defined program. If a customer wants
to try a specific product arrangements can be made to determine what conditions are
necessary for baking or cooking so the customer can determine the suitability for his or
her program. Technical product information can be generated by customer-requested
testing of various products and equipment.

CONSTRUCTION:

The 1529 model is constructed of stainless steel both inside and outside. Aluminized steel
is used on the outside back and bottom. All of the exterior shell or frame members and the
internal shells are welded to provide long life construction, durability and rigidity. Unit is
thoroughly tested before shipment. On-going research and development projects are used
to introduce the latest and most dependable parts.

SHIPMENT:

TOASTMASTER ® equipment is usually shipped directly from the factory or delivered
from a dealer, unless sold at a show or after a test or demonstration. Unless otherwise
agreed to by TOASTMASTER® freight is paid by the buyer F.O.B. from the
TOASTMASTER® manufacturing plant in Menominee, Michigan. Shipping time may
vary depending upon the original shipping point, time of the year, and shipper or shippers
used.

TOASTMASTER® works closely with all of its customers in tracing shipments to speed
deliveries and minimize handling. TOASTMASTER® employs the latest accepted
packaging standards to ensure that your equipment arrives in excellent condition.
However, damage may still occur due to accident or mishandling by the freight company.
For this reason it is necessary for the receiving party to immediately do a thorough
inspection of the equipment when it arrives.

TOASTMASTER

The TOASTMASTER® Model 1529 is electrically powered and operated, and generally
does not require a hood. However, the final decision as to hood requirements will always
rest with your local authorities. This unit consists of a stainless steel well that is heated by
a tubular heating element. This unit is designed to accommodate standard food inserts.
This model is designed for wet applications and may be used as a single unit or banked
with other units. It is equipped with a pre-set thermostat, “on-off” switch and “dry
receptacle” alarm. It is designed to be operated with a volume of water in the well.

Standard pans are to be inserted into the well with their lips resting on the outside flange
of the unit.

RECEIPT AND INSTALLATION:

It is essential to inspect the unit immediately when it arrives. TOASTMASTER® has
placed instructions on the packaging to help avoid damage in transit. However, negligent
handling can produce hidden damage. These steps should be followed:

A. Inspect the entire perimeter of the package for damage or punctures to the packing

material. This may indicate damage to the unit inside. Call any and all damage to
the attention of the delivery person.

B. If any packing damage is found, uncrate the unit immediately in the presence of

the delivery person to determine if the unit is damaged. If any damage is found,
indicate the type and amount of damage on the shipping documents and notify
TOASTMASTER® at [phone] immediately after filing a freight claim.

C. Uncrate the unit carefully and check the entire unit (top, front, back and both

sides) for any visible or hidden damage.
D. Remove the unit from the shipping pallet and inspect the bottom for any damage.
E. If any damage is noted after the driver leaves, immediately contact the freight

company and TOASTMASTER®.

INSTALLATION AND INITIAL START–UP:

A. Check to determine that the power source is the same voltage and phase as that

indicated on the label on the side of the unit.
B. Attach the included Appliance Legs to the bottom of the unit. Each Leg stud

screws into a threaded hole in each corner of the base.
C. Position the unit where it is to be operated and adjust the Appliance Legs so the

unit stands level and solid. TOASTMASTER® recommends a minimum 1” spacing

all around the sides and back of the unit when installed.
D. Set switch to the OFF position.
E. Connect your unit with the attached Power Cord into a (NEMA 5-15R Amp)

receptacle. Allow enough slack in the Power Cord to allow for equipment to be

moved about during installation and any future servicing.
F. Fill the unit with approximately 1” of hot water and the switch to the “ON”

position.
G. Check to see if unit is warming up. If unit fails to heat, check the main disconnect

and the food warmer to see if both are on. Have the installer recheck all electrical

connections.
H. Insert pans in place or cover the unit to conserve heat and prevent water

evaporation.
I. Never place food items directly into water well. Always use pans.
J. Alarm will sound if unit is out of water. This indicates more water needs to be

added.
