Site Preparation

1 Position the unit on a flat, level surface capable

of supporting the entire weight of the unit.
Remember the unit will be significantly heavier
once it is fully loaded.

2 This unit requires a grounded and polarized

115 VAC, 60Hz, 15A circuit (normal household
current).

3 Avoid connecting the unit to a Ground Fault

Interruptor (GFI). GFIs are prone to nuisance
tripping which will cause the unit to shut down.
GFIs are generally not used on circuits which
power equipment that must run unattended for
long periods of time.

4 The unit must be installed according to your

state and local laws and regulations.

WARNING

The Anti-Tip Kit must be installed on this unit
before it is used. All screws supplied with the
Anti-Tip Kit are for mounting the bracket directly
to wall studs. These screws will not work if used
with sheetrock (dry wall) or anything other than
wall studs.

to back (to ensure that door closes and seals
properly).
