SECTION 2: INSTALLATION/OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLING THE JFT DISHMACHINE

NOTE: All JFT models are accompanied by a certified Jackson technician for the initial installation. Many of the ques- tions and problems that arise, as well as the proper procedures for installation, should be directed to this person.

VISUAL INSPECTION: Before installing the unit, check the container and machine for damage. A damaged container is an indi- cator that there may be some damage to the machine. If there is damage to both the container and machine, do not throw away the container. The dishmachine has been inspected and packed at the factory and is expected to arrive to you in new, undam- aged condition. However, rough handling by carriers or others may result in there being damage to the unit while in transit. If such a situation occurs, do not return the unit to Jackson; instead, contact the carrier and ask them to send a representative to the site to inspect the damage to the unit and to complete an inspection report. You must contact the carrier within 48 hours of receiving the machine.

UNPACKING THE DISHMACHINE: Your JFT model dishmachine will come packaged in several containers as each individual section is packed separately. Once the machine sections have been removed from the container, ensure that there are no miss- ing parts from the machine. This may not be obvious at first. If it is discovered that an item is missing, contact Jackson imme- diately.

CONNECTION OF MACHINE COMPONENTS: The dishmachine will arrive in separate pieces for ease of installation. Silicone will have to be used between each section for sealing purposes before each is bolted together. Apply the sealant onto each surface to be connected together. Observe that the openings and bolt holes are covered with the sealant. When connecting the sections, use pins or spikes to center components before clamping the machine together. Once clamped, the sealant will be squeezed from all cracks where applied. The sections are now ready to have the hardware inserted into place.

DO NOT TIGHTEN THE HARDWARE AT THIS POINT!

Check that all sheet joints, bends, and especially, guiding rails are properly aligned and if necessary, readjust at this point. After all connections are ready, tighten the hardware. Excess protruding sealant is to be removed with a plastic scraper. Once removed, smooth the sealant seam with the fingers and soapy water.

LEVEL THE DISHMACHINE: The dishmachine is designed to operate while being level. This is important to prevent any damage to the machine during operation and to ensure the best results when washing ware. The unit comes with adjustable bullet feet, which can be turned using a pair of pliers or by hand if the unit can be raised safely. Ensure that the unit is level from side to side and from front to back before making any connections.

PLUMBING THE DISHMACHINE: All plumbing connections must comply with all applicable local, state, and national plumbing codes. The plumber is responsible for ensuring that the

incoming water line is thoroughly flushed prior to connecting it to any component of the dishmachine. It is necessary to remove all foreign debris from the water line that may potentially get trapped in the valves or cause an obstruction.

Any valves that are fouled as a result of foreign matter left in the water line, and any expenses resulting from this fouling, are not the responsibility of the manufacturer.
