OPERATION
INTERLOCK
The hoods are interlocked with the Control Handle (Fig. 1) which prevents operation of the automatic wash and rinse cycle with a hood open. Also, the hoods cannot be opened while the dishwasher is in an automatic wash and rinse cycle.
FILLING THE TANK
Be sure that the Overflow Pipe (Fig. 3) is properly seated. Then close the hood and turn the Control Handle to the rinse position (Fig. 2). Hold it there until the wash tank is filled to the top of the Overflow Pipe.
DETERGENT
Use only commercial grade detergents recommended by your chemical professional. Do not use detergents formulated for residential dishwashers. Contact your chemical supplier to obtain a recommendation for an appropriate detergent that is suited to the water in your locality.
The wash tank capacity is 5 gallons. Rinse water usage adds 1.36 gallons of fresh water per cycle at 20 psig.
HEATER
The electric heater with thermostat (standard) must also have a fused disconnect switch (not provided) installed in the electric service line supplying this device and should meet the requirements of your local electrical code. The switch must be placed in a convenient location for the operator. To operate the heater, set the dial on the thermostat to the desired water temperature.
The heater should be turned on and off by the disconnect switch and not by the thermostat dial. If the thermometer does not indicate the proper temperature with the pump running, the thermostat can be set higher or lower as required.
CAUTION: Be sure the tank is filled with water before turning on the heater and always turn off the heater before draining the tank.
NOTE: Should the tank be accidentally drained before turning off the heater, the thermostat will automatically shut off the heater. When this type of heater
