GAS KETTLES
BEFORE OPERATION
1. Check Gauge Pressure – should read 20-30 In. Hg. below zero when cold. (Higher reading
indicates air in jacket. See Venting instructions.)
2. Check to make sure gas supply valve is turned on.
3. Check water level in sight glass. Water level should be in the middle of the sight glass. If level
is less than ¼ of the sight glass or the low water light is illuminated, water must be added to the
jacket (See Jacket Water Level.) Do not over fill.

kettle jacket and void the warranty.
