GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Keep the utensil washer clean to provide best results. Do not allow foreign objects to enter the unit, especially metallic contaminants.

Do not wash aluminum utensils in the utensil washer. The caustic detergent and high water temperature will cause aluminum oxide formation (black). Copper utensils may require polishing to remove oxide formation after exposure to utensil washer cleaning for a period of time. Stainless steel utensils should clean quickly and easily if the food soil is not baked on.

It may be necessary to scrub or prewash some hard-to-remove substances which may not come clean in the utensil washer with even a 6-minute washing. For stubborn food soil, a plastic scraper, plastic abrasive pad, nylon bristle brush or sponge with abrasive surface (Scotch Brite) may be used before washing in the utensil washer. Never use steel wool on ware to be loaded into the utensil washer. Use only products formulated to be safe on stainless steel. Rinse items thoroughly after scrubbing to remove metallic debris.

CLEANING THE UTENSIL WASHER

Disconnect electrical power supply and follow lockout / tagout procedures.

The utensil washer must be thoroughly cleaned at the end of each working shift or at least daily. Never use steel wool to clean utensil washer surfaces.

Turn the Selector Switch OFF.

Open the doors and lift up on the drain lever to drain the tank.

Remove the strainer pan and strainer basket (Fig. 5), and empty into a waste disposer or garbage container. Wash and rinse strainer pan and strainer basket thoroughly. Do not bang strainer pan or basket on tables to remove food soil.

After the tank has drained completely, lower the overflow tube to close the drain. Reconnect the electrical power to the machine.

Fig. 5

Turn the Selector Switch to FILL and press the Start button. The machine will fill and rinse any debris into the tank.

After Fill is complete, turn the Selector Switch OFF, open the doors and lift up on the drain lever to drain the machine.

Disconnect electrical power supply and follow lockout / tagout procedures.

Remove the overflow cover and the overflow tube. Wash and rinse the overflow tube inside and out.

Thoroughly cleanse and flush the interior of the machine. Remove remaining soil with a soft cloth or brush and a mild cleanser. Rinse again. Do not allow food soil to accumulate in the tank bottom.

Reinstall the overflow tube.

Carefully reinstall the strainer pan, strainer basket and drain cover. The opening at the corner of the strainer pan allows the capillary tube to go into the tank.

On machines with the capillary tube in the tank, use care when assembling strainer pan so the capillary tube is not damaged during assembly.

Make sure that the wash and rinse arms rotate freely and are free of any obstructions. If any obstructions are present, remove the wash and rinse arms. Clean the wash and rinse arms under running water in a sink.
