If the steamer is to be installed on a countertop or other surface without using legs, the steamer must be sealed to the 
surface to prevent any water, grease, etc., from accumulating under the steamer. The steamer can be bolted to the 
surface, but will still have to be sealed. Make sure that the installed steamer is level before applying the sealant.. The 
installer may use GE
®
 or Dow Corning
®
 RTV type sealant. Consult local code for exact requirements. 
1.  Lower the steamer gently onto a level surface. Never drop or allow the steamer to fall. 
2.  If desired, bolt the steamer to the surface (use 3/8-16 bolts to fit the threaded holes used by the legs). 
3.  Make sure that the steamer is level (both side-to-side and front-to-back). 
4.  Apply sealant around all four bottom edges of the steamer (see Figure 5)
5.  Go on to Installation Step 3.

If the steamer is to be mounted on the optional cabinet base, first attached the legs to the cabinet base (if not already 
attached). Then place the steamer on top of the cabinet base and line up the threaded holes on the bottom of the 
steamer with the holes in the cabinet-base top. Secure the steamer to the base with four 3/8-16 bolts. Go on to 
Installation Step 3.

If two steamers are to be stacked, mount the lower steamer first on either legs (Step 2a), a countertop (Step 2b), or 
the optional cabinet base (Step 2c). Remove (if present) the four chrome-plated plugs from the holes in the top panel 
of the lower steamer. Place the upper steamer on top of the lower steamer and line up the threaded holes on the 
bottom of the upper steamer with the holes in the top of the lower steamer. Secure the upper steamer to the lower 
steamer with four 3/8-16 bolts. The remaining steps of the installation must be performed for both steamers (they do 
not share any connections internally).
