MODEL: FT -20CE
ELECTRIC SELF-GENERATING COUNTER- TOP STEAM JACKETED KETTLE
3.2 CLEANING
The kettle interior and exterior should be thoroughly washed after each use in preparation of a different food.
1. Add water and mild detergent to the kettle immediately after use.
2. Scrub kettle interior with a nylon brush.
NOTE:
Never scrape the inside of kettle with metal tools, steel scouring pads, or abrasive cleaners. Scratches will result which
will spoil the kettle's general appearance and make it harder to clean and maintain in a sanitary condition.
3. Loosen food which is stuck to kettle by allowing it to soak at a low temperature setting.
4. Rinse with clear water and dry.
WARNING:
Do not hose down unit under any condition. Failure to comply will void warranty.
5. Wipe down exterior, rinse and dry.
3.3 VENTING
Check vacuum/pressure gauge when kettle is cold. Gauge should be in the vacuum
zone between 25-30 In. Hg (84-100k/Pa). If not, air is present which must be vented
(removed) for proper heating. Use the following procedures to vent air.
1. Place power switch in ON position; kettle empty.
2. Set temperature control thermostat to '10'. Heat kettle until heat indicator light goes off.
3. Using a 7/16" wrench, open bleed vent one full turn for 10 seconds and close.
4. Cool kettle. Check for proper vacuum of 25-30 In. Hg (84-100k/Pa). If reading is not
low enough, repeatentire procedure, steps 1-3.
3.4 FILLING-JACKET RESERVIOR
The reservoir water level must be maintained at or above the minimum needed to
submerge the heating elements. If the low water light turns on during use, the water
level is not adequate and the low water protection control has automatically shut off the
heating elements.
CAUTION:
Before adding water to the reservoir, water supply should be analyzed to ensure that hardness is no greater than 2.0-
grains per gallon and pH level is within the range of 7.0-8.5. Water which fails to meet these standards should be
treated, or ionized distilled water with sodium used. EQUIPMENT FAILURE CAUSED BY INADEQUATE WATER
QUALITY IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
Use the following procedure to fill reservoir. Check vacuum/pressure gauge to ensure that there is no pressure in kettle when
adding water.
1. Turn thermostat and power switch to OFF position.
2. Remove 7/16" vent fitting from bleed vent on back of kettle. Insert a funnel into vent opening and add prescribed volume of
water. 20 gallon model, add 200 ounces (6 liters).
3. Replace and tighten vent fitting.
4. With kettle in upright position, the low water light should be off at this time. If so, follow venting procedure to vent air from
reservoir (see Sec. 3.3 Venting). If low water light is not off, repeat Sec. 3.4, Filling Jacket Reservoir.
