Anti-Tilt/Hose Restraint Chain
Each appliance is supplied with a restraint chain. The restraint chain prevents strain being applied
to the hose when the appliance is pulled forward and prevents the appliance from tilting forward.
The chain should restrict the appliance movement to no more than 80% of the hose length.The
chain should be connected to a suitable anchor point as close to the behind of the appliance as
possible. If the appliance is installed between two cabinets, drill holes into the cabinetry and
secure the chains inside the cupboards.
WARNING: Ensure the chains are correctly anchored to prevent the appliance from tilting
forward and to prevent strain on the hose when the appliance is pulled forward.
MAKE SURE THE ANTI-TILTING CHAINS ARE TAUT WHEN ANCHORED TO PREVENT THE
APPLIANCE FROM TILTING.
FS 600-LEG and AR 900-LEG-1 Models
These models have extendable legs that you can use to raise and lower the appliance to the
desired installation height. It is important not to over extend these legs as the appliance can
become unstable.
1.
Lay the appliance on its back, being careful not to damage the appliance. It is advisable that
two people carry out this operation.
2.
Extend the legs to the desired height.
3.
Screw the legs into the base, ensuring that the legs are hand tightened only.
4.
With two people, lift the appliance back upright. Take extra care during this process to avoid
placing excess stress on the back legs as this may result in the full weight of the appliance
landing on the legs and bending the bottom plate of the appliance.
5.
When moving the appliance in and out for cleaning, always take care to lift the appliance and
not slide the appliance, as this can bend the legs.
