POSTITIONING
Position the kettle in its permanent location, and level
the kettle by turning the adjustable flanged feet. Once
positioned and levelled, permanently secure the kettle's
flanged feet to the floor using lag bolts and floor
anchors (to be supplied by the installer).
SERVICE CONNECTIONS
Install service connections as required. Locations and
other data are shown on the Specification Sheet.
FOR POWER TILT UNITS ONLY
NOTE: Ensure the electrical supply matches the kettle's
requirements as stated on the rating label.
This kettle is built to comply with CE standards. Many local
codes exist, and it is the responsibility of the owner and
installer to comply with these codes.
STEAM
All steam plumbing to and from the kettle and steam
boiler should be thoroughly cleaned and inspected for
dirt and debris before final connection to the kettle are
made.
Check the rating plate for the maximum steam pressure
that your kettle is rated for. If the steam supply pressure
exceeds the rated pressure, a pressure reducing valve
is required. The steam inlet is at the right side of the
kettle, as seen from the front.
CONDENSATE
A steam condensate trap must be plumbed to a drain,
using minimum 1/2" NPT plumbing. The condensate line is
limited to a maximum rise of 10 feet in order for the steam
pressure to adequately force the condensate through the
plumbing. Any higher rise requires a pump.
If the steam boiler to which this kettle is installed has a
condensate return (closed loop system), a 1/2" steam
strainer, a 1/2" steam trap, and a 1/2" check valve must be
installed on the output (condensate) side of the kettle.
POTABLE WATER
The water faucet (optional) with swing spout, requires 1/2
inch O.D. copper tube plumbing for hot or cold water
supplies to the faucet (SPK - cold water connection only,
DPK - hot and cold water connection).
INSTALLATION CHECK
1.
Partially fill the kettle with water.
2.
Slowly turn the steam supply valve's knob to the

3.
Release the safety valve, ensuring that the steam

releasing the safety valve.
4.
Observe that the water in the kettle comes to a
boil.
5.
Close the steam supply valve.
6.
Drain off the water in the kettle.
