possibility of fire. In the event of fire, use a fire extinguisher as follows.

2. De-energize the machine immediately by turning OFF the DISCONNECT SWITCH.
3. Turn off the remote main disconnect (customer supplied disconnect).
4. Shut off fuel.
5. Call the fire department.
6. Stay away.
Danger!
Always disconnect all power before extinguishing a fire.
Attempting to extinguish a fire in a machine connected to
electrical power can result in serious injury or death.
2.6. Equipment Lockout Requirements
To prevent injury or equipment damage during inspection or repair, the LAC-7 Series oven must
be locked out.
2.6.1. Emergency Stop
When a risk of personal injury or damage to the LAC-7 Series oven exists, turn OFF the oven by
removing/unplugging the cord. This shuts off all electrical power to the oven.
2.7. Disconnecting Devices
2.7.1. Power Requirements
Despatch recommends the LAC-7 have unobstructed access to a dedicated power source.
Use a power stabilizer if voltage fluctuation is greater than ±10%
nominal voltage fluctuation.
2.7.2. Disconnecting Hard-Wired Units
LAC-7 permanently-connected (hard-wired) ovens include models LAC2-12-7 and LAC2-18-7.
Permanently-connected and multi-phased equipment must employ a switch or circuit-breaker as
means for disconnection. For permanently-connected equipment, installation instructions must
specify a switch or circuit-breaker is included during the facility oven installation for complete
isolation.
