DRAIN WITH BUILT-IN VALVE IS INSTALLED IN THE BOTTOM OF THE TANK
The sink must be accessible from its top side and its bottom side in order to install the accessories. Be aware that the backsplash is unsupported at this time and can be bent out of shape by trying to support the entire weight of the sink on the edge of the backsplash.
IMPORTANT: THE RIM OF THE DRAIN MUST SEAT IN THE RECESS OF THE SINK OR IT WILL WORK LOOSE OVER TIME AND ALLOW WATER TO LEAK AROUND THE DRAIN.
Install Sink Drains
There is one sink drain in the Power Prep Intro that must be installed. The drain with a valve built into the body is installed in the bottom of the sink and oriented with the drain valve handle toward the front of the sink. The flange at the top of the valve must be sealed to the recess formed in the inside sink bottom.
Apply a generous bead of a drain sealant around the lip of the drain body.
While holding the drain body to prevent it from rotating, tighten the drain nut with a wrench to firmly seat the nut against the rubber vibration ring and the vibration ring against the surface of the sink (approximately ¼ turn past "hand tight"). Wipe or trim the excess sealant from around the drain flange inside the sink. Allow the sealant to cure before filling the sink with water (see instructions on the sealant container for drying time).
Leg Installation
The Power Prep Intro is usually shipped without the leg assembly attached to the machine. Different options have different types of leg assemblies. Some leg assemblies are all welded together and others are pieces that need to be assembled. If the leg set is welded together, skip to the section labeled "Leg Set and Sink".
Leg Set Assembly
Install the two leg end weldments and the two stretchers. The stretchers are the horizontal tubes that connect the leg weldments to provide lateral stability. The long stretcher will be installed between the back legs on the wash sink.
The drain will be oriented with the handle connection toward the front of the sink. From inside the sink, insert the drain through the drain hole and seat the flange against the recess around the drain opening. Be sure that the sealant compresses so the top flange of the drain actually touches the sheet metal surface of the sink. If the drain does not touch the sink it will work loose and leak as the sealant compresses over time.
From the outside of the sink, place the rubber vibration ring over the threaded body of the drain followed by the Teflon ring and then the drain nut. Tighten the nut "hand tight" until the handle is installed.
Orient the stretcher socket with the set screw facing toward the sink drain and then slide the stretcher sockets over the top of the leg sets so that the stretcher will be positioned above the welded joint of the leg when the legs are assembled onto the sink. Install the stretchers between the leg sets by inserting them into the sockets before inserting the legs into the sockets on the bottom of the tank and drain board.
IMPORTANT: AFTER TIGHTENING THE SET SCREWS, FILL THE OPENINGS IN A CLEAN AND SANITARY MANNER WITH THE SILICONE SEALANT THAT IS SUPPLIED WITH THE MACHINE
Using two nuts, attach the drain handle bracket to the studs on the bottom of the tank. Insert the drain valve handle through the bracket and into the drain body. It may be necessary to rotate the handle a partial turn to align the flats on the end of the handle shaft with the flats on the valve so that the handle will fully insert into the valve. Secure the handle to the valve body by screwing the handle nut onto the valve body.
Leg Set and Sink
Insert the leg assembly into the sockets on the bottoms of the sink and drain board. Be sure that all the legs are seated in the bottom of the sockets. Use an Allen wrench (5/32) to tighten the set screws in all of the sockets. After tightening the set screws, apply silicone sealant (supplied with the machine) to the set screw openings in order to seal the openings in a clean and sanitary manner.

Adjusting the Feet Use a tape measure and adjust the feet to the approximate height required. Turn the hexagon foot clockwise to shorten the height of the sink or counterclockwise to raise the height of the sink. Final adjustment of the feet will be done after the sink is in the installed location. Set the sink and leg assembly upright on its feet.
IMPORTANT: CHEMICAL DISPENSER AND CHEMICALS FOR THE POWER PREP INTRO MUST BE OBTAINED FROM A SOURCE OTHER THAN UNIFIED BRANDS.
Chemical Dispenser Connection Chemical dispenser and chemicals for the Power Prep Intro are not sold by Unified Brands; these must be obtained through other sources. Some Power Prep Intro units are provided with a dispensing tube located in the back splash for directing the chemical flow into the wash sink.
The discharge tube from the chemical dispenser is pushed over the end of the tube to secure it to the backsplash. This keeps the hose in the correct location for dispensing chemicals into the wash sink. Faucet Installation Open the faucet package and locate the water connection elbows, faucet body and escutcheon assemblies. Apply Teflon tape to the threads of the elbows and insert them though the backsplash of the sink.
Loosely fit the escutcheons to the elbows and the faucet body. When the alignment of the body with the sink is confirmed, tighten the escutcheons onto the elbows and faucet body. From the back side of the backsplash, tighten the brass nuts on the elbows when the faucet body is parallel with the rim of the sink.
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: THE POWER PREP INTRO SINK ASSEMBLY MUST BE LEVEL FROM SIDE TO SIDE AND FRONT TO REAR WITH ALL THE FEET MAKING FIRM CONTACT WITH THE FLOOR.
FINAL INSTALLATION STEPS
Machine Placement
Position the Power Prep Intro so that the back splash rests against the wall and is placed according to the floor plan or customer's selected location. Examine the drain and water supply lines to determine that the plumbing can be completed when the Power Prep Intro is in the final location. Verify that the plumbing from the faucet can be reached with the sink against the wall.
Downturned-Backsplash ("Z-Clip" Installation)
If the Power Prep Intro has an upturned backsplash, skip this step.
If the Power Prep Intro has a backsplash that is downturned, it will be necessary to attach the provided Z-Clips to the wall. Using a level, adjust the feet on the Power Prep Intro until the front rim and the rear rim of the sink are level. The sink must also be level front to back. Measure from the floor to the top edge of the backsplash, and then move the sink away from the wall. Locate the Z-Clips by marking a level line on the wall approximately 3/32" below the height of the backsplash top edge. Locate the wall studs and mark the locations. Align top edge of Z-Clips to the marked line and securely fasten the Z-Clips to the wall, using fasteners provided. Install screws directly to the wall's studs whenever possible. The Z-Clips should be spaced as evenly as possible. Move the sink to the wall and lift the back edge over the Z-Clips.
Upturned-Backsplash
If the Power Prep Intro has a downturned backsplash, skip this step.
Using a level, adjust the feet on the Power Prep Intro until the front rim and the rear rim of the sink are level. The sink must also be level front to back. Locate the wall studs and mark their location on the top edge of the back splash. Measure down ¾" from the top of the backsplash and then drill ¼" diameter holes through the back splash in line with the center of the studs. Use the included #10 stainless steel screws to attach the Power Prep Intro directly to the wall.
Seal around the Backsplash and Screws
Examine the installation to see that the wall and backsplash are clean and free of dust and oils. Seal the top and sides of the backsplash to the wall using the clear NSF approved sealant provided with the Power Prep Intro. Seal around the screw heads to be sure they do not allow water to leak behind the backsplash. Wipe off all excess sealant leaving a smooth, clean and sanitary bead of sealant on all the edges.
Rinse Riser and Anchor Installation
Follow the faucet manufacturer's directions on the assembly of the faucet and riser. Anchor the riser supports to the wall using the flange plate provided with the riser assembly. It may be necessary to cut the support rods to a shorter length in order to fit between the wall and the riser.
Complete the faucet assembly according to the manufacturer's instructions which are included with the faucet. Attach water lines to the faucet so that the lines extend below the sink. This will make the plumbing easier to complete when the machine is placed against the wall.

IMPORTANT: INSTALLER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL PLUMBING TO CONFORM TO LOCAL BUILDING CODES WHICH MAY BE DIFFERENT FROM ILLUSTRATIONS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL.
Plumbing Connections
Connect the water supply lines to the faucet. Connect all the drains to the waste drain connection.
· Open the drain valve and inspect the drain joints for leaks as the water is draining from the sink.
Check the Electrical Installation
· Verify that there are no loose wires or open holes in the electrical enclosure.
· Check for correct motor rotation as indicated by the arrow on the pump housing.
· Fill the wash tank with water and turn the handle on the control enclosure to the "ON" position. Have a qualified electrician verify that the amp draw on the electrical supply is within the specifications on the identification tag.
Electrical Connections
The final electrical connections between the Power Prep Intro and the electrical supply must be made by a licensed electrician. The Power Prep Intro has several options for motors. Review the information tag for determining the specific requirements of the machine being installed. See Verify the Electric Requirements section of this instruction booklet.
Checking the Motor Rotation
The motor must rotate in the correct direction in order for the Power Prep Intro to function properly. An arrow indicating the direction of rotation is located on the pump housing. Running the motor in the wrong direction does not damage the motor or pump, but the pump will not circulate water in the wash sink correctly. After the connection to the electrical supply is properly made, turn the motor on momentarily and watch the cooling fan blades on the end of the motor to see that the motor is turning in the correct direction. The fan blades can be seen through the vent holes on the end of the motor. It is usually necessary to watch the fan as the motor coasts to a stop, because the fan is difficult to see when the motor is running at full speed.
Check the Faucet Operation · Open each faucet knob and verify that water flows from each hand control. Verify
that hot and cold water are running from the correct hand control. · With the water valves open, turn the center knob to see that it will shut off flow to
the faucet and that the hand sprayer is still functional. · Purge the water lines according to local code requirements.
IMPORTANT: CHEMICAL DISPENSER AND CHEMICALS FOR THE POWER PREP INTRO MUST BE OBTAINED FROM A SOURCE OTHER THAN UNIFIED BRANDS.
Check the Chemical Dispensing System The Chemical Dispensing System must be checked by a representative of the company that manufactured it. It will need to be verified that the proper amount of chemical is being dispensed and that the proper chemical concentration is maintained during operation.
IMPORTANT: THE MOTOR MUST ROTATE IN THE CORRECT DIRECTION FOR THE MACHINE TO OPERATE PROPERLY.
Shelving
Reinstall any shelving that was removed for convenience of installation. If the shelving is damaged or corroded, it is recommended that the shelving be replaced. Remember that whatever equipment or supplies are located above the sink might accidentally fall into the food being processed by the Power Prep Intro.
VALIDATING THE INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: MOTOR ROTATION MUST BE CORRECT FOR THE MACHINE TO OPERATE CORRECTLY.
TESTING THE COMPONENTS Check for Leaks · Turn on the water supply and inspect all joints for leaks. · Close the drain valve, fill the sink with water and inspect the drain fittings for
leaks.
