OPERATION
OPERATION
Follow the procedure below to operate your dishwasher properly.
1. Check that spray pipes, curtains, overflow drains, and scrap screens are in place and clean.
2. Turn on detergent dispenser switches and check detergent supply.
3. Turn on exhaust vent system (if applicable), and make sure it is operating.
4. Close door(s). Push the power switch to the ON position. Tanks will begin filling with water.
5. When tanks are full, check wash tank temperature gauge. Minimum wash temperatures are:
• KL44, KL66 - 140°F/60°C
• 44KB, 54KB, 44WS - 160°F/71°C
• 44KPRB, 54KPRB, 66WS - 160°F/71°C
6. Press the START button on the control cabinet. Only the conveyor will start. The pumps
WILL NOT OPERATE until the first rack enters the machine.
7. Scrap and pre-flush all items to be washed, and load the items into the rack.
DO NOT OVERLOAD RACKS.
Place dishes edgewise in a peg rack, cups and bowls upside down in a flat rack.
Spread silverware evenly in a single layer in a flat rack or
upright (loosely packed) in a cutlery rack.
7. Push the rack into the machine, and the pumps will start automatically.
8. Check the rinse pressure and temperature as the racks pass through the final rinse. This rinse
pressure MUST be 20-22 psi [138-151 kPa] and the final rinse temperature MUST be
180°F/82°C minimum.
9. The pumps will automatically stop shortly after the last rack leaves the machine.
The conveyor will continue to run.
10. The machine may be stopped any time during the cycle by pressing the STOP button on the
control cabinet. When restarted, items inside the machine will be fully washed and rinsed.
11. CLEAN scrap screens, scrap baskets (if applicable) and REPLACE tank water every 2 hours
of operation or after each meal period. Check chemical supply.
CAUTION:
DO NOT allow racks to remain on unload dishtable. This could cause the conveyor to jam
and may damage machine. The installation of a table limit switch is highly recommended and
will reduce the risk of damage.
WARNING:
Do not leave water in tanks overnight.
