THERMOSTAT SETTING
IMPORTANT:
Thermostat adjustment not covered under
warranty.
IMPORTANT:
The recommended temperature of the bases
is about 250°F (121°C). In order to obtain the best possible
heat-keeping effect, the setting should not be much lower.
You can easily check the temperature by shaking one of the
bases — if the wax has melted completely, it will make a
“gurgling” sound.
The thermostat is pre-set at the highest temperature set-
ting for the dispenser. If you find that the bases are too hot
for your application, reduce the temperature by turning
the thermostat knob to a lower setting. Since virtually all
facilities operate differently, the best way to determine
your optimal thermostat setting is to start with the pre-set
temperature, then adjust to determine the setting which
best suits your application.
The heaters in the unitized base are controlled by an
adjustable thermostat located behind the access panel
inside the unit.
1. Make sure that the master switch is in the “0” position
and remove the plug from the receptacle.
2. Remove the four screws on the access panel and remove
the panel.
3. The thermostat is located on the left-hand side, just
below the blower motor.
4. You can now change the thermostat setting while
pulling the knob into the desired adjustment.
5. Replace the panel, connect the unit with the main
outlet, switch on the unit and check the result of the
new setting.
INFO:
Once the proper temperature setting is determined,
it is not necessary to reset the thermostat for every meal.
Leave the thermostat at the desired setting and turn the
unit ON and OFF using the master switch.
LOADING OF BASES
WARNING:
Overfilling dispenser silos may cause injury
to operator or damage to the dispenser, thus voiding the
warranty.
1. To avoid bruised fingers or hand injuries, make sure the
level of the upper base is 2” (5cm) higher than the upper
edge of the housing. (See Level Adjustment No. 2 for
Spring Adjustment)
2. Check to be sure that the guide basket is placed in the
supporting frame with the “feet extenders” side down.
Line up the guide basket with the supporting frame so
that the two nest together.
3. Each silo is designed for use with 50 Dinex unitized
bases. This number may vary when using bases of
different structures or dimensions.
WARNING:
Never drop stacks of bases into the silo
assembly. This can cause damage to the silo components
and void the warranty. Place three to four bases at a time
into the silo.
IMPORTANT:
The recommended temperature of the bases
is about 250°F (121°C). In order to obtain the best possible
heat-keeping effect, your setting should not be much lower.
You can easily check the temperature by shaking one of the
bases — if the wax has melted completely, it will make a
“gurgling” sound.
CAUTION:
In spite of the housing insulation, temperatures
at the surface may be high. Never touch the unit without
using thermal protection gloves.
• Please pay attention to the air escape opening at the
rear side. This is where heat is vented by the electric
system using a blower wheel.
• You should keep sufficient distance from that vent
and never cover it during operation. Due to system
technical reasons the temperature level increases
after every heating interval.
DISPENSING OF BASES
WARNING:
Severe burns may occur if instructions are not
followed.
1. Turn the master switch to “0” position and disconnect
electrical plug from the receptacle. Move the dispenser
to the start of the tray make-up line.
2. The operator must wear thermal protection gloves or
use a base lifter while dispensing bases. Never touch
bases with bare hands. Never assume that bases are
cool enough to be handled with bare hands.
3. If a base becomes jammed in the silo, do not reach into
the silo to free it — use a long stick instead.
