INSTALLATION
1.3. LEG/CASTER INSTALLATION AND LEVELING
When you receive your appliance it is completely assembled with the possible exception of the legs (or casters). This
appliance must be installed with legs or casters; it cannot be curb mounted. Curb mounting will seriously inhibit this
appliance’s ability to effect proper component ventilation. The legs/casters must be installed before connecting the
appliance to the gas supply. The legs provide the necessary height to meet sanitation requirements and assure
adequate air supply to the combustion system. Use the following procedure
Required tools: 7/16 “ wrench and socket and a large pair of water pump pliers.
1. Remove all loose accessories and carefully place the appliance on its back to avoid damage to the cabinet and
splash back. Protect the outside of the appliance with cardboard or a drop cloth when laying it down. Take care
not to pinch any electrical cords between the cabinet and the floor.
2. Attach each leg/caster with the hex head screws and nuts supplied. Each leg/caster requires four 1/4-20 x 5/8”
hex head screws and nuts. Insure that all screws are tight.
3. Mount the screws from the inside of the appliance with the nut on the outside (bottom, see diagram below) of the
appliance. The nuts have lock washers attached to them, therefore it is not necessary to use separate lock
washers.
4. When all four legs/casters are securely mounted, stand the unit upright, being careful not to put too much weight
on any one leg or caster. Adjust the height and level the appliance by adjusting the leveling devices (B) with
water pump pliers. Rotating the leveling device in a Clockwise (CW) direction will reduce the height of the
appliance, Counter Clockwise rotation will increase the height of the appliance. For casters, loosen 2 set screws
(A) before leveling, adjust the height, then retighten.
WARNING
This appliance must be installed with the legs or casters provided by the manufacturer.
WARNING
DO NOT install legs or casters, or perform leveling procedure when
appliance is in operation or full of hot liquids. Serious injury could result.

INSTALLATION
1.4. PLUMBING CONNECTIONS
The plumbing installation should be done by a licensed plumber and must comply with local and national codes.
The instructions for appliances connected to the water mains by detachable hose sets shall state that new hose sets
will be used and that the old hose sets should not be reused (if applicable).
1.4.1. WATER INLET CONNECTIONS
If your appliance is equipped with a faucet or a water fill option connections to a potable water supply will be
required. If a single water connection is required it is recommended that the appliance is connected to hot water
supply. This will greatly decrease the time and energy required for the appliance to reach operating temperature.
Prior to installation, a water treatment specialist should inspect the water supply. Water hardness should contain
no more then 2.0 grains/gallon. The pH level should be between 6.5 and 8.0. These conditions can be obtained
with the use of a properly maintained water softener. The incoming water pressure should be between 20 psi (138
kPa) to 60 psi (414 kPa). For higher water pressures, a high-pressure regulator must be installed to inlet plumbing
to avoid damage caused by water hammer. The maximum allowable incoming water temperature is 180°F
(82°C). Have your water tested and record the measured values below.
WARNING
When water is at a high temperature and high pressure, excessive splashing of hot water
may occur that could result in injury.

1.4.2. DRAIN CONNECTIONS
Each tank has a drain that can be connected to a drainage system. Each tank also has an overflow line. The
overflow connection is after the drain valve to provide an unobstructed overflow path. The tank drain and
overflow line for each tank is connected together to form a common drain line.
When there are more than 2 appliances joined together the common drains can be connected together with a
manifold that has a 1-1/4” NPT outlet connection. The outlet on the can be mounted so it can drain under the left
or right hand unit.

SSPG14: Floor Model High Efficiency Gas Pasta Cooker
INSTALLATION
1.5. GAS CONNECTION
Your appliance will give you peak performance when the gas supply line is of sufficient size to provide the correct gas
flow. The gas line must be installed to meet the local building codes or National Fuel Gas Code ANS Z223.1 and
NFPA 54 (latest editions). In Canada, install the appliance in accordance with CSA B149.1 or .2 and local codes. Gas
line sizing requirements can be determined by a qualified installation professional, your local gas company or by
referring to the National Gas Fuel Code, Appendix C, Table C-4 (for natural gas) and Table C-16 (for propane). The
gas line needs to be large enough to supply the necessary amount of fuel to all appliances without losing pressure to
any appliance. A properly sized and installed gas line will deliver a supply pressure between 7.0” W.C. (17.4 mbars,
1.74 kPa) and 10.0” W.C. (24.9 mbars, 2.49 kPa) natural gas or between 11.0” W.C. (27.4 mbars, 2.74 kPa) and 13.0”
W.C. (32.4 mbars, 3.25 kPa) propane to all appliances connected to the supply line, operating simultaneously at full
demand. The pressure at the gas valve must not exceed 1/2 PSI.
Each appliance is equipped to operate on one certain fuel type. The type of fuel with which the appliance is intended
to operate is stamped on the data plate, which is attached to the inside of the door.
WARNING
NEVER supply the appliance with a gas other than the one that is indicated on the data
plate. Using the incorrect gas type will cause improper operation and could result in serious
injury or death. If you need to convert the appliance to another type of fuel, contact the
dealer you purchased it from.
NOTICE
NEVER use an adapter to make a smaller gas supply line fit the appliance connection. This
may not allow proper gas flow for optimum burner operation, resulting in poor performance
and improper operation.
1.5.1. QUICK DISCONNECT CONNECTION
In North America gas appliances equipped with casters must be installed with connectors that comply with the
Standard for Movable Gas Appliances, ANSI Z21.69 • CSA 6.16 latest edition. This connection should include a
quick disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas Fuel,
ANSI Z21.41 • CSA 6.9 latest edition.
When installing the appliance you must also install adequate means for limiting the movement of the appliance
without depending on the connector or quick-disconnect device or it’s associated piping to limit the movement of
the appliance. The restraining device should be attached to the appliance on the back panel.
1.5.2. FUEL SUPPLY LINE LEAK AND PRESSURE TESTING
The fuel supply system must be tested before the appliance is used. If the fuel line is going to be tested at a
pressure greater than 1/2 PISG (3.45 kPa), insure that that appliance is disconnected from the fuel line. If the fuel
line is to be tested at a pressure equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.45 kPa), the appliance can be connected
during the test, but the unit’s gas valve must be shut. Test all gas line connections for leaks with leak detection
solution, or a solution of soap and water when pressure is applied.
