Installation Safety Instructions
Read all installation instructions thoroughly before
installing.
CAUTION: DO NOT lift the oven by the
door handle(s). Doing so will require a door-leakage
test to be performed (see page 5.4), and could cause
the door(s) to come off or misalign, requiring repair
and/or replacement.
CAUTION: Th e Double Wall Oven weighs 410
lbs (186 kg), and the Single Wall Oven weighs 230
lbs (105 kg). Two or more individuals are required to
lift either oven.
CAUTION: DO NOT remove bottom wood
support rails until the oven is lifted into the cabinet.
Due to the oven’s weight, it is sometimes
ƒ
necessary for installers to utilize special handling
equipment, such as hand trucks, dollies, etc. Use
of such equipment can damage the kitchen fl oor
surfaces. TurboChef recommends that all exposed
fl oor surfaces be protected by applying laminate
or plywood sheets, along with protective moving
blankets before using such equipment. Failure to
do so may result in scarring and damaging the
homeowner’s
fl oors.
Installation, electrical connections, circuit
ƒ
breakers, and grounding must comply with local
codes.
Ensure power is disconnected at the breaker
ƒ
throughout the installation process.
Th is oven contains breakable components – use
ƒ
extreme caution when lifting and placing it.
A minimum 1-inch clearance, to allow for proper
ƒ
airfl ow, is required above the top control panel
area and below the base. Failure to maintain this
clearance may cause the oven to function
improperly.
DO NOT push on the outer frame. Doing so
ƒ
could cause the door(s) to misalign, requiring
repair and/or replacement.
During installation, TurboChef recommends
ƒ
removing the lower door prior to lifting the oven
from the front (Double Wall Model only.) DO
NOT remove the top door of the oven during
installation or at any other time. Th
is door should
only be removed by an authorized service agent.
Installation
Cabinets should be cut according to dimensions on
pages 1.4 and 1.5. Failure to adhere to the
Rough
Wall Opening specifi cations may cause corners of
the cabinet opening to be exposed. If the oven is
being installed near a wall or door, there should be at
least .25 in (6.35 mm) space between the wall/door
and the sides of the oven trim.
TurboChef recommends using standard 2x4 wood
support posts with a minimum of .5 in (12.7 mm)
solid base to support the oven. Support posts should
be level with the fl oor line and well secured to the
base of the cabinet. Base cabinet support must be
able to support the oven’s weight – 410 lbs (186
kg) DWO and 230 lbs (105 kg) SWO. TurboChef
strongly recommends a solid base as shown in the
illustrations on the following page.
Due to the oven frame’s overall depth, adhere to the
power supply line location shown in Figures 1.2 and
1.3 on page 1.4 to obtain a proper fi t in the cabinet.
If necessary due to a low or high conduit box, a 2”
diameter hole should be drilled where indicated to
allow the power cord to reach the power source.
NOTE: DO NOT shorten conduit. Correct conduit
before installing oven into cabinet.
Th e oven utilizes ambient air from the kitchen to
assist in keeping the operational components cool.
Th
is air is drawn in through the top control panel
area through openings in the top access panel and
exhausted through an opening at the base of the
oven. Please allow a 1-inch minimum clearance
above and below these areas.
Should you have any questions or concerns about
how the cabinets are built, please contact TurboChef
Customer Service 866.447.3783 before installing the
oven.
