Installing the Unit

Use the following procedure to install the unit using the supplied
angle brackets.
NOTE: Units can be ordered with up to 3 m (10') of element
wire leads, depending on the installation location of the
control box. On light-equipped units, the LED wire leads
always will be 457 mm (18") longer than the element
wire leads.
Damage to any countertop material caused by heat
generated from Hatco equipment is not covered under
the Hatco warranty. Contact manufacturer of countertop
material for application information.
1. Determine the exact mounting location on the underside of
the shelf.
NOTE: The attached angle brackets provide 25 mm (1")
clearance between the unit and an overshelf.
NOTE: Units can be mounted to a flat shelf or a shelf with
rolled/flanged edges. The unit must be installed with
the minimum 25 mm (1") clearance measured from the
lowest part of the overshelf. For example, a shelf with
a 25 mm (1") flanged edge would require the unit to be
installed 51 mm (2") below the underside of the shelf. If
minimum distances are not maintained, damage to the
surroundings and/or failure to the unit could occur.
2. Fasten the angle brackets to the underside of the shelf using
appropriate fasteners (not supplied by Hatco). Make sure the
unit is facing the desired direction with the wire leads on the
proper side before fastening the unit to the shelf.
