Getting Started

2.2.Receiving and Installation

The dishwasher is shipped from the factory in a corrugated box on a wooden pallet. The installation guidelines give a systematic procedure for setting up the machine.

1.Start by removing the box and packaging material. Check for the following component parts:

A.Drain Screen:

The Wash Tank Scrap Screen is shipped inside the wash cavity of the machine. This screen must be in place during operation. It has been designed to perform two basic functions:

•Strain water that is circulating through the spray arms and pump assembly.

•A basket to catch heavy solids or broken glass that may plug the impeller.

B.Spray Arms

The end caps on the spray arms have been taped to protect them in shipping. Remove the tape from the spray arm end caps.

C.Tube Stiffeners:

The tube stiffeners must be used to prevent the feed tubes from curling up inside the chemical pail allowing the tip to rise out of the chemical. Remove the tie-wraps securing the tube stiffeners to the dishmachine to free them up for use. Be careful not to remove any of the tie-wraps securing the tube bundle.

2.Set the machine in place and, using the leg adjusters, level from side-to-side and front-to- back.

2.2.1. Electrical*

A 20-amp, 115 volt, 60 Hz dedicated circuit must be used to supply electrical power to the L-1X or L-1X16 Dishmachine (see specification sheet page 1). The power connection must be such that there is sufficient length of flexible conduit or power cord to permit the machine to be moved for cleaning.

2.2.2. Plumbing*

The machine is equipped with a gate valve with a ½” female NPT connection located at the lower left-hand corner (facing the back) of the machine. A 140°F water line should be plumbed to this point. The water line used must be of sufficient length and flexibility to permit the machine to be moved for cleaning.

A 1” male NPT fitting is provided for the drain connection on the discharge port of the diverter valve (lower, right-hand corner of machine). This fitting may be removed and user provided hardware may be used if necessary to facilitate compliance with local plumbing codes. Code requires that the drain discharge provides an air gap no less than 1” or two pipe diameters, whichever is greater, above the flood level rim of an approved floor drain.

2.2.3. Post Instructions

Mount the wall chart provided in a conspicuous place and instruct the operators on proper cleaning and operation of the L-1X and L-1X16. The instruction chart is also provided as an appendix to this manual (see appendix).

*Electrical and plumbing connections must be made by a qualified person who will comply with all available Federal, State, and Local Health, Electrical, Plumbing and Safety codes
