1.2.2 Heat Deflector Installation
If the Pasta cooker requires a heat deflector, a removable label will be located at the rear top edge of
the cooker. This label has instructions for positioning and installing the heat deflector. Refer to the
label and the following instructions to install the deflector:
a. Remove the two self-drilling screws from the top, back area of the cooker.
WARNING
DO NOT obstruct combustion or ventilation openings around the
cooker. Adequate clearance around the cooker is necessary for proper
burner operation. Ensure that the minimum clearances specified in
the installation instructions, paragraph 1.3.1, are followed.
b. Position the heat deflector so that the angled portion of the deflector is facing toward the front
of the cooker. Secure the heat deflector to the back of the cooker using the sheet metal screws
removed in step a.
c. When properly installed, the angled section of the heat deflector will extend over the flue
opening to redirect the heat. It SHOULD NOT cover the flue opening. Blocking the flue
opening will cause the cooker to overheat and produce dangerous Carbon Monoxide gas.
1.2.3 Basket Lift Access
The basket lift mechanism is installed at the factory and does not need adjustment. If it is necessary
to gain access to the basket lift motors or linkage, the rear panel of the cooker must be removed. The
motors do not require lubrication.
1.3 Installation
Although the cooker is easy to install and set up, it is STRONGLY recommended that this
installation be done by qualified professionals. The professionals that install the new cooker will
know the local building codes and ensure that the installation is safe.
NOTICE
Proper connection to electric, gas, water, and drainage services is
essential for safe, efficient, and trouble free operation of the Pasta
Perfect cooker.
