MAINTENANCE
WARNING: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY (BOTH DISHWASHER AND BOOSTER
IF APPLICABLE) AND PLACE A TAG(S) AT THE DISCONNECT SWITCH(ES) TO INDICATE THE
CIRCUIT(S) ARE BEING WORKED ON BEFORE BEGINNING ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE.
WASH ARMS
Upper and lower wash and rinse arms (Figs. 11, 12) should turn freely and continue turning for a few
seconds after being whirled by hand. To check, DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY
(BOTH DISHWASHER AND BOOSTER IF APPLICABLE), rotate arms, and remove any obstructions
causing improper operation.
If the slanted strainer or strainer bucket is not properly in place, obstructions (such as food particles
or bones) may clog the wash arm nozzles. The wash arms are easily removed for cleaning.
Removing Wash / Rinse Arms — AM14 / AM14C
To remove the lower wash arm, first lift off the rinse arm; then, using a dowel (or end of punch),
unscrew the rinse arm bearing pin (Fig. 11) and lift off the lower wash arm. It is not necessary
to remove the spacer located on the lower wash arm shaft.
The upper wash and rinse arms are removed by unscrewing the hand knob (Fig. 12) and lowering
both arms together. Be careful not to drop these arms.
MOTOR(S)
The wash pump motor and the blower motor used on gas heat machines are equipped with
permanently lubricated bearings and require no lubrication maintenance.
GAS FLUE (Machines equipped for gas heat only.)
When cool, check the flue opening every three months for obstructions.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Manual Reset Button on Pump Motors (When Equipped)
In case the pump becomes overheated, the thermal overload will
cause the motor to not operate. Motors equipped with Automatic
Reset will become operational after they cool down. Some motors
are equipped with a gray manual reset button on the bottom of the
motor near the endbell opposite of the motor junction box (Fig. 13).
To restart motors equipped with reset button after the motor has
cooled, press the gray manual reset button.
