The kettle is tilted by means of the crank on the front of the control
housing. The kettle remains in the position to which tilted until
cranked again.

b. For a prolonged shut-down:
1. Follow the procedure above.
2. Disconnect electric power from the unit.
C. Lift-Off or Counterbalanced Cover
As with stock pot cooking, an optional cover can speed up the heating of water
and food products. A cover helps retain heat and reduces the heat and humidity
released into the kitchen. Using a cover can reduce some product cook times
and help maintain the temperature, color and texture of products being held or
simmered for longer periods. Be sure the handle is secure on the lift-off cover
before using. ALWAYS use the handle to place or remove cover from the kettle.
Wear protective oven mitts and a protective apron.
When putting a lift-off cover on the kettle, position it on top of kettle rim, with its
flat edge facing the pouring lip.
When removing the lift-off cover:
1. Firmly grasp the handle.
2. Lift rear edge (farthest from operator) 1- 2” (3-5 cm) to allow steam and
water vapor to escape the cooking vessel. Wait 2-3 seconds.
3. Tilt cover to 45-60° angle to allow any hot condensate or product to roll off
cover back into kettle.
4. Remove cover, ensuring that any remaining hot condensate or product
does not drip on operator, floor or work surfaces.
5. Place cover on safe, flat, sanitary, out-of-the-way surface, or return to
kettle.
