Constructional changes to the area where the Pasta
System is installed shall not affect the air supply to the
Pasta System. The installation, start-up and changes
required when changing from one gas type to another can
be performed only by a certified professional.

The Pasta System is intended only for commercial use and
is to be operated only by professionals.

It is required that the Pasta System is regularly inspected for
proper functioning. The frequency of inspections are
dependent of the Pasta System usage, however it should
be performed at least once a day.

After adjustment or service work the Pasta System has to
be checked for gas leaks.

NOTE:

After conversions, readjustments or service,

work the Pasta System has to be tested for proper
functioning. Basically the following applies:

CALIBRATION

For Calibration refer to page 10 – Calibration. Note:
Calibration is not covered under warranty.

WATER AND DRAIN 
CONNECTIONS

The water supply connection, located at the bottom rear of
the Pasta System and marked water inlet, is a standard

"

female pipe connection. The water pressure should be
between 20 - 60 psi. If the pressure exceeds 60 psi, a
pressure regulator must be used. The water temperature
must not exceed 150°F(65.6°C). Hot or warm water is not
needed due to the instant recovery of the Pasta System. 

Connections suitable for hot water must be used.
All connections must be tested for leaks before
using the Pasta System.

NOTE:

For Pasta Systems with casters, flexible hose

must be used to avoid leaking when the Pasta System
is moved for cleaning.

If during operation the boil is killed when water
automatically enters the Pasta System, turn the water
pressure down until water is added without killing the boil. 

The drain terminates within inches of the floor and is
designed for the standard dump to drain opening. In most
cases, the health department will not allow a direct
connection between the Pasta System drain and the floor
receptacle. Contact your local health department for
specific information in your area.

IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO INSTALL A BACK FLOW
PROTECTOR OR CHECK VALVE ON THE WATER
SUPPLY LINE TO THE PASTA SYSTEM. CHECK WITH
EITHER YOUR LOCAL

WATER OR HEALTH

DEPARTMENT TO DETERMINE IF THIS IS
NECESSARY IN YOUR SPECIFIC AREA.

III OPERATING

FILLING

NOTE:

Before filling the Pasta System make certain the

vessel is sanitized, dry and the drain valve is completely

closed. 

Figure 3-1

Manual Water Fill Level

When the water fill toggle switch (located between the
green and blue indicating lights) is turned on, the Pasta
System vessel automatically will be filled to the proper
level. If the vessel is being manually filled with water
from a faucet or through the manual fill button, fill to just
below the overflow deck. The black manual fill button is
located to the right of the blue water fill indicating light.

LIGHTING

In the event of a power failure, check to see if constant
pilot is still burning before resuming operation. If not,
wait five minutes to allow any accumulated gas to
escape and then re-light the constant pilot.
