Vulcan-Hart C24GA6 ML-136056 Cleaning, Disconnect the electrical, Cooking Compartment Drains

CLEANING

Disconnect the electrical

power to the machine and follow lockout / tagout procedures before cleaning.

Cooking Compartment Drains

Keep compartment drains running freely. Inspect compartment drains daily for blockage. Remove any particles or debris from the perforated strainer daily (or more often if needed).

After cooking greasy foods or seafood, close the doors and operate each compartment for 25 to 30 minutes to flush any residual grease and oils down the compartment drain. Make a solution of warm water and non-chloride detergent and pour ½ gallon (1.9 liters) of it down each compartment drain. Rinse by pouring ½ gallon (1.9 liters) of hot water down each compartment drain.

Draining Generator

To prevent malfunction of controls and clogging, it is essential to drain the generator every day. This will flush out any accumulated minerals from the feed water. It will also aid in preventing internal scale buildup which would interfere with proper generator operation. Failure to drain the generator every day will void the steamer warranty. The presence of minerals in suspension is indicated by a murky or milky condition in the first portion of the water drained.

The water being drained is hot and under pressure. Use care when cleaning or servicing the generator.

After the generator has been in operation, turn the unit off with the power switch located on bottom cooking cavity to drain the generator. The generator will drain for approximately 15 minutes, removing sediment, scale and lime buildup in the generator.

Compartments

Wash the inside of the compartment with a solution of warm water and non-chloride detergent. Rinse with warm water.

Once a week, thoroughly clean the exposed surfaces (sides, front, door and top) with a damp cloth and polish with a clean cloth. To remove discolorations, use a nonabrasive cleaner.

Door Gaskets

Clean the gasket sealing surface of the compartment doors to remove food acids for maximum gasket life. Do not use any solvents or sharp instruments. Wash with a cloth moistened in a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse with a fresh cloth moistened with warm water to remove all traces of detergent.

Wipe dry with a clean cloth. Never apply food oils or petroleum lubricants directly to the door gasket. Petroleum-based solvents and lubricants will reduce gasket life.
