Foster, Automatic, Defrost, Prove, Retard. 2 Trolley
The pizza processing operation is provided in three formats:
- Fully automatic program incorporating all three functions.
- Manual Thaw/store program.
- Manual Prove/ Retard program.
The cabinet is designed to accommodate two special pizza trolleys.

Installation Instructions
Installation of these units should be carried out by a competent person and
appropriate codes of practice adhered to, thus ensuring safe installation.
Removal Of The Panels From The Pallet
The cabinets are of modular construction with the wall panels and ancillary
items delivered with retaining shrink-wrap. This exterior should be removed,
which after cutting the bands will allow all the components to be removed and
then checked for damage before placement in a convenient area for assembly.
There could be more than one crate – so check each one as above.
Installation Of Panels And Equipment
The following instruction is suggested as a method of installation.
The ceiling panel is supplied with the refrigeration system / heater assembly
pre-fitted, ready for installation, once the wall panels are erected.
The cabinets are floorless and therefore require fitting to a clean level
floor.
The wall panels are attached to the floor by inserting them into PVC ‘U’
Channel. This is supplied cut and mitred and should be fitted to the floor
prior to installation
Location
Flat, level, clean, sound surface.
This appliance has a top mounted system and will need a minimum of 300mm
clearance above the unit.
Panel Layout and Dimensions
Ceiling panel with the refrigeration system / heater assembly
Cabinet Dimensions
‘U’ Channel Fitting
The ‘U’ channel is supplied cut to the correct lengths.
The external dimensions of the room are – 1206mm Wide X – 1042mm Deep
It is important that the ‘U’ channel is fixed squarely so that the panels will
lock together when inserted.
It is
recommended that there should be no more than 3mm tolerance in the floor
level, as this can affectthe correct location of the panels.
Using a spirit level, check floor level on all four sides.
If required use packing shims to take up any anomalies in the floor.
Once you are satisfied with the level, the U channel can be rawl-plugged or hilti-nailed into position, ensuring it is sealed with silicone sealer between the floor and the channel to prevent moisture penetration. Apply ‘mastic sealer’ to the inside of the channel to provide a vapour seal when the panels are located.
Assembly Of Wall Panel
Note: there is no door header panel, as this is integral with the ceiling
panel.
Fit the side panel into the channel and apply a bead of mastic (see figs) to
create a vapour seal. Place the rear panel in the channel, these can now be
locked together (see fig 2). Repeat this process for the remaining panel until
all panels are locked internally.
Fitting The Ceiling Panel
At the top of the wall panels there is a recess that accepts the ceiling.
Apply mastic to the recess so that when the panel is fitted there is a good
vapour seal.
Slacken the screws securing the front panel to the sides and rest it securely
on the top of the ceiling panel, taking care not to damage the interconnecting
cables, See below.
Lift the ceiling panel complete and lower into the top recess.
With the ceiling panel in place slide the
galvanised angle bracket into place (see fig 4). Secure using the screws
provided (see fig 5 and 6).
With the ceiling panel secured in place seal the
internal joints with silicone sealer.
Insert the buttons into the lock holes.
Fitting The Rear Air Duct
- Prior to fitting the rear air duct check that the Air Return Duct is correctly located into the Coil Driptray Flange, see fig 7.
- Place the air duct against the rear of the cabinet and insert into the space between the air return duct and the rear of the cabinet to a depth of 10mm, see fig 7, secure in place using the self tapping screws provided.
Fitting the Bumper Bar
The rear and side bumper bars at the height indicated, using the self tapping
screws provided.
Fitting The Door
Hold the door at a 90° angle to the cabinet and lower the door on to the
hinges, see (fig 10) for the correct hinge alignment in the closed position.
Check that it hangs squarely to the cabinet. 
Re-fit the unit cover and check that the top of the door lines up with the
bottom of the unitcover.
To remove the door, reverse the process.
After hanging the door inspect the door gasket. Ensure that it seals fully to
the doorframe.
Also ensure that the door wiper gasket, fitted to the bottom of the door is in
contact with the floor (see fig 11).
Important Note !
If the ceiling panel has been tipped during installation. The product should
not be switched on for 24hrs.
