Scotsman RS160 - Manual (Page 5)

In order to comply with National Sanitation
Foundation (NSF) requirements, this unit must be
either elevated above the counter top sufficiently to
provide space for cleaning under the unit or
sealed to the counter top.
Elevating the unit may be accomplished by using
the leg kit. Legs screw into threaded holes in the
base of the unit.
If the unit is to be sealed to the counter top, the
soda tubing installation should be planned such
that its connections may be finished after the unit
has been sealed to the counter.
Seal the unit by the use of room temperature
vulcanizing (RTV) rubber sealant such as General
Electric IS 808 Industrial Sealant, Dow Corning
731 or the equivalent.
With the unit located on the counter as desired:
A. Tilt or lift the unit to expose the bottom flanges
of the base frame.
B. Apply the sealant to cover the bottom flanges of
the base frame.
C. Return the unit to the desired position on the
counter top.
D. Add sealant around the base frame and counter
top to provide a seal with a radius of 1/2". Follow
the sealant manufacturer’s instructions on the
package for working with the sealant, and cleaning
up.
E. Seal around all access holes in the counter top
with Permagum or Mortite caulk or an equivalent
material.
