Requirements
GENERAL INSTALLATION
Install equipment on a solid, flat, level
surface in a location where ambient
temperatures will not exceed 100 F and
away from grease laden vapors from other
equipment. For proper ventilation of the
equipment, allow 2-inch clearance on all
sides, particularly around any ventilation
holes. Plug the equipment into a properly
grounded outlet of the correct voltage and
phasing as indicated by the equipment ID
labels. Please read the installation instructions
that follow.
water
If manually filling equipment with water, fill
evaporator pan with approximately 2.5
gallons of water.As water evaporates,
minerals in the water will deposit on the
surface of the evaporator. These mineral
deposits will inhibit the transfer of heat.
Deposits can also degrade and damage
stainless steel. To avoid mineral deposits
clean the equipment daily. It is advisable to
contact your water utility for advice on
minimizing deposit buildup.
!CAUTION:CAUTION:
High Temperature Hazard
Can cause damage to equipment >>
If utilizing vapor heat, ll evaporator with
water prior to turning power on and do not
allow evaporator to run dry.
Do not place equipment in an area where
ambient temperature (air temperature
around the equipment) exceeds 100° F
(38° C). A heat shield may be required to
prevent excessive heat exposure and grease-
laden vapors from affecting the equipment
if adjacent to heat, vapor, or grease
generating devices (such as grills, steamers,
ovens, etc.). Excess heat and grease inside
the equipment cavities may cause electrical
components to fail.
Vent Hood: Generally this equipment does
not need to be installed under a mechanical
ventilation system (vent hood). Check local
health and fire codes for requirements
specific to your location.
auto water fill
Automatic water fill is available as an
optional feature. Auto water fill systems
must be hooked up to a potable water
supply line. The maximum incoming water
temperature may not exceed 140 ˚F (60 ˚C)
and the incoming water pressure must be
between 20 and 150 psi (137.9 kPa to 1034
kPa). Equipment with auto water fill systems
MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO RUN DRY. Heat
damage to the water valve may result.
It is the responsibility of the owner and
installer to ensure that installation complies
with all local and state plumbing codes.
shelving
The load limit per rack is 65 lbs (29.25kg).

Contact Information
For locations with hard water, add one
tablespoon (15 ml) of white vinegar or
lemon juice to water to help minimize scale
buildup. Please consider contacting your
local water authority to obtain advice on
possible water treatments to protect the
equipment. Some water supplies are high
enough in chemical content to be capable
of damaging stainless steel (if used
untreated). The evaporation process can
concentrate the chemicals in the water to a
level which could cause a damaging
reaction with the stainless steel.
ventilation
Ventilation Clearances: To operate properly,
the equipment will need sufficient space for
air circulation. Allow at least 2" (51 mm)
clearance on all sides, particularly around
ventilation holes. Care should be taken to
prevent placing the equipment close to
anything combustible. It must be installed
with its supplied casters or legs. Equipment
may be stacked upon each other using only
a Winston supplied stacking kit and
following the instructions enclosed with the
kit. Your warranty may be void if you do not
adhere to these ventilation requirements.
!CAUTION:CAUTION:
High Temperature & Grease Hazard
Can cause damage to equipment >>
Avoid placing equipment near high heat or in
grease-laden atmosphere.
