Operation
3. Operation
3.1. Initial Setup
3.1.1. Check…
Drain screen is in place
Spay arms and end plugs are secure
3.1.2. Chemicals
Assure there is a sufficient supply of chemicals before beginning a shift.
3.1.3. Filling the Machine
With the power ON, toggle and hold the Fill/Start switch in the “FILL” position
until the water level in the wash tank is about 1” deep, or just below the
bottom wash arm.
3.2. General
Caution: Do not operate the dishmachine without the drain screen in place. Debris
getting into the pump impeller can damage the pump.
1. Load a rack of properly pre-scrapped dished into the machine and close the door.
2. With the machine filled to the proper level, toggle the Fill/Start switch to the “START”
position – the machine will automatically begin its cycle. The green running light will
illuminate while an operational cycle is in process.
3. At the end of the shift, drain the machine by holding the Drain toggle switch in the
“DRAIN” position until the machine is completely drained. To avoid running the pump
dry, do not hold the Drain toggle switch in the “DRAIN” position any longer than
necessary.
4. Remove and clean the drain screen. Remove and clean the spray arms. (See wall
chart instructions or instructions provided in Appendix A: Operator & Cleaning
Instructions).
5. Replace the drain screen and spray arms.
3.2.1. Pre-Scrapping
It is essential that the operator thoroughly understand the importance of pre-scrapping the
dishes before loading them. The L-1X and L-1X16 are equipped with a removable drain
screen. The drain screen can be easily removed for cleaning between Operational Cycles
of the dishmachine. Properly pre-scrapping the dishes should permit the dishmachine to
operate for an entire shift before needing to remove and clean the drain screen.
3.2.2. Proper Chemical Dosage
The amount of chemical delivered, whether it is detergent, sanitizer or rinse aid, is
determined by its respective cam on the cam timer.
Cam number 2 runs the detergent pump
Cam number 5 runs the sanitizer pump
Cam number 6 runs the rinse aid pump
