2.Push the quick disconnect insert into the fitting on the back of the unit (Figure 4).

NOTE: Incoming water is controlled by a solenoid valve inside the electrical housing of the steamer.

CAUTION

Water pressure must not exceed 25 psi (1.7 kg/cm2 or 172 kPa). Higher water pressures may cause poor performance or flooding. To reduce water pressure, install a water pressure regulator, and set water pressure to 20 psi (1.4 kg/cm2 or 138 kPa). To order a water pressure regulator from your authorized service center, order Roundup part no. 7000235.

OPERATION

General

When the operate button (Figure 5) is pressed, power is supplied to the water pump (MS-150/155/355) or solenoid (MS-250/255). The pump/solenoid operates and water sprays onto the heated steam generator. The water flashes immediately into live steam and shoots down onto the product.

One of two operational modes can be used: Single Shot or Timed Cycle

SINGLE SHOT

The operate button is pressed to initiate a single timed shot. The control board applies power to the water pump/solenoid and a timed “shot” of steam occurs.

TIMED CYCLE

The control is set to the desired cook time (up to 99 minutes, 59 seconds), then the Start/Stop Button is pressed. The main control board applies power to the water pump/solenoid at regular intervals for the dura- tion of the displayed cycle time. The display counts down to zero when the cycle is complete sounding a audible signal then reverts back to the original pro- grammed cycle time. The unit is ready for the next cycle when the green ready light is on.
