OPERATION
Operating Instructions
All kettles must be supplied with steam from a boiler
which is remotely located. Consult steam boiler informa-
tion or instruction plate and complete all start-up instruc-
tions. Proceed with kettle operating procedure as follows:
1. Check pressure gauge of steam supply source to in-
sure steam input is at 15 PSI (1.0 kg/cm2). For di-
rect connected steam, turn on external steam supply
valve.
2.
Check that Draw-Off Valve is tightly closed.
3. Lift kettle lid and place either a Solid or Perforated
Drain Disc over the drain inside kettle. Use solid disc
to retain liquids; perforated to strain liquids from food.
4. Load kettle with foods to be cooked.
5. Add water for cooking by swinging spout over kettle
and using Combination Faucet.
6.
Turn Steam Control Valve to full counter-clockwise
position to heat kettle content to an initial rapid boil.
NOTE: The volume of steam going into the kettle
jacket can be controlled at any time by ad-
justing the kettle steam control valve in either
direction. Turn clockwise to reduce heat and
counter-clockwise to increase.
7.
Close Steam Control Valve (full clockwise position)
when cooking is complete.
CAUTION
Food must be removed from the kettle imme-
diately.
8. Remove food from tilting kettles. With a full pan in the
pan support, and the crank installed in the front of
the cabinet, turn the crank clockwise to tilt the kettle
for pouring. (Tilting mechanism is infinitely adjust
-
able and non-coasting in kettle elevation and lower-
ing). Liquid foods may also be removed by use of the
Draw-Off Valve.
PAN SUPPORT MOUNTING TILTING KETTLES
For convenience during cooking, the pan support need
not be installed until needed for removing food from the
kettles. To ensure correct operation and to prevent spills
the support must be securely installed as shown in “Fig-
ure 3” and as explained below:
1. Hold the pan support in front of the upright as shown
at A.
2. Place the stud of the left-hand support upright into the
hole in the left side of the pan support. Then push the
right side of the support in until it engages the spring
loaded pin of the right-hand support upright, shown
at B.
3. Rotate the pan support upward (C) and engage the
slotted ends of the support links in the studs at the
base of each support upright as in D.
The removal procedure is the reverse of installation with
the exception that in step 2 support upright springs must
be pushed out to release the support from studs.
