4.
Open the draw-off valve to drain the
wash water.
5.
The draw-off valve should be
cleaned as follows:
a.
Remove the drain screen from
the bottom of the kettle.
Thoroughly wash and rinse
the screen, either in a sink or
dishwasher, then replace it
into the kettle.
b. Disassemble the draw-off
valve, first by turning the valve
knob counter-clockwise, then
turning the large hex nut
counter-clockwise, until the
valve stem is free of the valve
body.
c. In a sink, wash and rinse the
valve stem, hex nut, and
knob. Wash and rinse the
inside of the valve body using
a nylon brush.
d.
Reassemble the draw-off valve
by reversing the procedure for
disassembly. The valve's hex
nut should be hand tight only.
6.
Rinse the kettle interior thoroughly,
then drain the rinse water.
7.
Leave the cover and draw-off valve
open when the kettle is not in use.
8. Exterior Care: Allow kettle to cool
before washing. Use the same
cleaners and cleaning procedures as
for other kitchen surfaces of
stainless steel and aluminum. Mild
soapy water, with a clear water rinse,
is recommended.
Do not allow water to run into
electrical controls.
Always turn off
equipment power before using water
to wash equipment.
DO NOT HOSE DOWN THE
KETTLE.
NOTE:
For more difficult cleaning
applications, one of the following can be
used: alcohol, baking soda, vinegar, or a
solution of ammonia in water. Avoid the use
of chloride cleansers, which may damage
the kettle's stainless steel surface.
WARNING:
Steel wool should never be
used for cleaning the kettle. Particles of the
steel wool become embedded in the
surface and rust. This will weaken and
corrode the stainless steel surface.
MAINTENANCE
Cleveland kettles require very little
preventive maintenance, other than daily
cleaning
.
DRAW-OFF VALVE MAINTENANCE
To correct a leak at the draw-off valve, the
source of the leak must first be determined.
Leaks from around the valve stem are
corrected by simply replacing the "O"ring.
Faulty seating of the valve stem disc
against the valve body seat may cause
dripping from the valve even when the
valve is tightly closed. This can often be
corrected by cleaning any residue from the
disc and seat.
