IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

13. Always operate with the lid in place.

14. Display window area will scratch when contacted with a scouring pad or

sharp object. Use a soft cloth to wipe the control panel area clean.

15. The T&G 2 Blending Station®cannot be cleaned with a water jet.

16. Installation for a 120 VAC unit requires you to have at least one 20 amp

outlet per machine, available within six feet of the T&G 2 Blending

Station. 220 VAC and 100 VAC units require a dedicated line. Consult

an electrician for proper electrical needs.

Enjoy the safety of this grounded appliance. The T&G 2 Blending Station

U.S. power cord comes equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug which

mates with a standard three-prong wall outlet (Figure A). This cord will vary for

countries outside the United States.

Adapters (Figure B) are available for two-prong outlets. Do not cut or

remove the third (ground) prong from the plug or power cord.

Consult your electrician if you are not sure if the wall outlet is grounded

through the building wiring. With a properly grounded two prong wall outlet,

ground the T&G 2 Blending Station by attaching the tab on the adapter to the

wall outlet cover by means of the screw in the center of the cover (Figure B).

id Assembly

Cover with Removable Hinge Design

Cover Door:

1. The Cover Door can be removed by opening it until the door is horizontal. Then,

gently spread the sides of the door over the round hinges and remove.

2. To reinstall the Cover Door, gently spread the sides of the door and place the door

hinge cutouts over the round hinges. (Figure C)

Back Cover:

1. To remove the Back Cover from the Blending Station:

a. First remove the Cover Door from the unit, as described above.

b. Remove the two (2) Back Cover mounting screws located on the rear of the

machine. (Figure D)

c. From the rear of the machine, firmly push the bottom of the cover forward

(towards the control panel), keeping the bottom edge of the cover against the

motor base. DO NOT tilt or strike the cover during removal.

d. Slide forward until the side latches on the front of the cover are released from the

motor base. DO NOT strike the cover to “pop” the side latches from their

tracks. Doing so will cause damage. The cover must only be removed by

sliding it forward (toward the Control Panel).

2. To replace the Back Cover on to the Blending Station:

a. Place the Back Cover on the motor base approximately one (1) inch forward of its

normal position.

b. Slide the cover towards the back of the machine (away from the Control Panel).

Make sure the side latches slide into their tracks.

c. Push until back of cover is seated against the Motor Base.

Make sure the Back Cover is fully seated in the back and the side latches

are in their grooves before inserting and tightening the mounting screws.

d. Replace and firmly tighten the two (2) Back Cover mounting screws. (Figure D)

DO NOT overtighten. DO NOT use the mounting screws to pull the Back

Cover into position. Doing so will cause damage.

Preparing the counter area:

• Before cutting holes, make sure that there is adequate clearance under the counter for the

motor. The motor will extend about 5-2/3" (14.4 cm) below the counter but it is best to allow

at least 10" (25.5 cm) from the under-counter to shelves or any other equipment under the

counter. Also, when using the removable cover design, the back of the hole must be at least

6” (15.2 cm) from any wall to allow for cover door clearance.

• An extra 6.5” (16.5 cm) of open space, above the top of the cover will be needed for

placement and removal of the In-Counter machine and for custom programming the SIX

PRE-SET buttons.

• If installing unit into a closed cabinet, use a 4” dia. (10 cm) flexible vinyl duct (dryer hose) to

vent exhaust. Attach the vinyl duct to the bottom of your In-Counter T&G 2 Blending

Station®by forcing the end of the hose over the exhaust baffle of the unit. Run the vinyl duct

out of the cabinet for proper ventilation. Do not vent hose into a wall, ceiling, or a concealed

space of a building. Multiple units should not vent to a common manifold unit but to

separate places. If running your In-Counter T&G 2 Blending Station causes a suction on

your cabinet door, place a spacer in the door frame to allow proper intake of air.

DO NOT use hose clamps or equivalent to attach exhaust hose on machine.

• When cutting holes for placement of multiple In-Counter units, position the edge of the

machines at least 12” (30.48 cm) apart to ensure quick cleaning and proper venting

between machines.

• In-Counter installation for 120 VAC unit also requires you to have at least one 20 amp outlet

per machine under the counter, available within six feet of the T&G 2 Blending Station.

220 VAC and 100 VAC units require a dedicated line. Consult an electrician for proper

electrical needs.

• The In-Counter T&G 2 Blending Station also requires a gasket (provided in the machine’s

original package) to be placed between the machine and the counter. See page 10 for

instructions.

DO NOT strike the blender when removing from the counter.

Electrical requirements:

• 120 VAC • 50/60 Hz. • 11.5 amps

All 120 VAC T&G 2 Blending Stations are built using a U.S. 3 prong grounded cord and

require a 20 amp outlet.

• 220/240 VAC • 50/60 Hz. • 1073-1176 Watts

• 100 VAC (Japan) • 50/60 Hz. • 900 Watts

Gasket Installation Instructions:

1. Follow the instructions on page 8 on preparing the counter area for the installation of

your In-Counter T&G 2 Blending Station.

®Also, use the Template Sheet (provided in your

machine’s original package) to assist you in the placement and ventilation of

your machine.

2. Lay the blender on its back with the motor pointing toward you. Allow 1-2 in. (2.54 -5.08 cm)

of the motor base to hang over the edge of the counter top to facilitate easy fitting of the

gasket.

3. Slide the power cord through the gasket, with the groove of the gasket pointing toward the

machine base.

4. Starting at one corner of the motor base, press the gasket onto the motorbase, so that the

groove in the gasket seats itself onto the stepped bottom edge of the motor base.

5. Working around the bottom edge of the motor base, press the gasket onto the motor base

until the entire perimeter of the gasket is firmly attached to the motor base.

6. Carefully place the blender into the hole in the counter.

7. Be sure that the gasket is properly seated on the motor base and against the counter top.

8. Do not secure the machine to the counter with bonding materials.

This gasket was designed to protect your machine from water damage and to

reduce noise. Failure to properly install this gasket could result in moisture

damage.
