SECTION 2: INSTALLATION/OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before the first start up of the machine, check that all tools, cleaning rags, and all foreign parts are removed from
the operation areas of the machine.
PREPARATION: Before proceeding with the start-up of the unit, verify the following:
1. Ensure wash arms, rinse arms, pump suction strainers, pan strainers, and curtains are all installed correctly.
2. Close all doors on dishmachine.
3. Close the drain valve(s).
4. Open the main stop valves for water.
5. Pull out all Emergency Stop Switches. Switch on the main switch at the control panel.
POWER UP: To energize the unit, turn on the power at the service breakers. The voltage should have been previously verified
as being correct. If not, the voltage will have to be verified.
For electrical booster operation, ensure that the electric booster heater’s power switch is in the “ON” position. Can be seen
when electrical sections lower dress panel is removed. Check that the power light is illuminated.
For steam booster heater operation, ensure switch below front control door is in the “ON” position. The light beside of the switch
should be illuminated to indicate on and the light beside of the steam guage will turn on and off depending as to whether steam
is cycling to the booster.
WARE PREPARATION: Proper preparation of ware will help ensure good results and less re-washes. If not done properly, ware
may not come out clean and the efficiency of the dishmachine will be reduced. It is important to remember that a dishmachine
is not a garbage disposal and that simply throwing unscraped dishes into the machine simply defeats the purpose altogether
of washing the ware. Scraps should be removed from ware prior to being loaded into a rack. Pre-rinsing and pre-soaking are
good ideas, especially for silverware and casserole dishes. Place cups and glasses upside down in the track so that they do
not hold water during the cycle. The dishmachine is meant not only to clean, but to sanitize as well, to destroy all of the bac-
teria that could be harmful to human beings. In order to do this, ware must be properly prepared prior to being placed in the
machine.
FILLING THE WASH TUB: Close all doors. Press the white “On Fill/Heat” button. As soon
as the green indication lamp “Tank Filled” lights up, the filling and heating cycle is com-
pleted and the machine is ready for operation. The operation cycle can begin. Press the
green “Start” button at the switch cabinet door or press the green “Start” button at the feed-
ing or discharge ends. Now the transport belt can be loaded with dishes in the feeding
section.
Two transport speeds can be selected. During operation, the transport speed can be
changed from low to high or vice versa. Transport speed “low” moves slower through the
machine which is more suitable for heavily soiled dishware. Transport speed “high” moves
quicker though the machine and is more suitable for lightly soiled dishware. The transport
speed must be selected according to the soiling of the dishware, the belt load and the
washing results.
BREAK SWITCHING: By means of the red “Stop” button (located on the electrical control box, and at each end of the machine),
the operation cycle is temporarily interrupted, (i.e. the wash pumps and transport are switched off), however the tank heatings
continue running. Press the black push button “Off Fill/Heat” at the switch cabinet door. The green indication lamp “Tank Filled”
continuous lighting, as the machine is still ready for operation. The operation cycle is only temporarily interrupted and remains
ready for operation. The machine is in stand-by operation and can start operation at any time. After an interruption of opera-
tion, you can continue the wash cycle by pressing the white “On Fill/Heat” button. Press the white push button “On Fill/Heat” at
the switch cabinet door or the feeding or discharge end to continue washing.
