Water Tube Cleaning
In areas that have very hard water conditions, scale can accumulate in the water tube, preventing proper water
dispensing. Thus, the water tube should be cleaned during the deliming process as well as during the daily cleaning. It
is recommended that the steamers go through a deliming procedure once a month. Some hard water areas may
require daily, weekly, or biweekly deliming based on actual buildup.
Turn unit off and unplug the
power cord from the electrical
receptacle. Proceed with
caution. The unit is still hot.
Items needed:
– McDonald’s Delimer
– Insulated gloves
– Steamer brushes
WARNING
Immediately after turning off the unit, prepare the
deliming solution. Add one packet of McD Delimer
to 16 ounces (437 ml) of warm water. To ensure
that all of the delimer dissolves, stir solution
vigorously. Remove top cover, venture plate,
spatula and top plate.
These pieces are hot.
Pour the delimer into the steam chamber.
WARNING
1
Let solution soak on the platen for five minutes.
While deliming the
platen, dampen the
bristles of the brush
by dipping them in
delimer solution.
2
Insert and remove brush into and out of the
water tube to disintegrate any scale build up in
the tube. Insert the brush at least 1 inch into the
tube.
Repeat for 30
seconds.
The platen is hot!
CAUTION
3
If the tube is severely clogged, the tube will need to
be removed from the unit and replaced. Refer to the
Water Tube Replacement Instructions found in the
equipment owner’s manual. Additional copies can
be ordered from Prince Castle.
