WHAT TO DO IF SURFACE RUST APPEARS (Continued)
TO REMOVE HEAT TINT: Darkened areas sometimes appear on stainless steel surfaces
where the area has been subjected to excessive heat. These darkened areas are caused by
thickening of the protective surface of the stainless steel and is not harmful. Heat tint can
normally be removed by the foregoing, but tint which does not respond to this procedure calls
for a vigorous scouring in the direction of the polish lines using SCOTCH-BRITE™ scouring
pads or a STAINLESS scouring pad in combination with a powdered cleanser. Heat tint action
may be lessened by not applying or by reducing heat to equipment during slack periods.
All food contact surfaces must be thoroughly drained and flushed prior to cooking in the kettle.
CONTROL PANEL: The textured control panel should be cleaned with warm water and mild
soap. Never use an abrasive cloth or steel wool . Never use cleaning solvents with a
hydrocarbon base.
7.0 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
SAFETY VALVE MAINTENANCE AND TESTING
CAUTION! Under normal operating conditions a "try lever test"
should be performed every two months. Under severe service
conditions, or if corrosion and/or deposits are noticed within the
valve body, testing must be performed more often. A "try lever test"
should also be performed at the end of any non-service period.
CAUTION! Hot, high pressure fluid may be discharged from body
drain and vent during "try lever" test. Care must be taken to avoid
any bodily contact.
CAUTION! High sound levels may be experienced during "try lever"
test. Wear proper safety equipment and exercise extreme care! Test
at, or near, half of the operating pressure by holding the test lever
fully open for at least two seconds to flush the valve seat free of
sediment and debris. Then release lever and permit the valve to
snap shut.
If lift lever does not activate, or there is no evidence of discharge,
turn off equipment immediately and contact a licensed contractor or
qualified service personnel.
