Operation of the Boiler
Turn on water and power supply.
Open cabinet door and turn main power switch ON. Pilot light ignites and water begins to fill boiler - observe water gauge
sight glass to verify that proper water level is reached.
Once the proper water level is reached, the heaters begin to heat the water. Heaters require about 15 minutes to begin
steam generation. The boiler pressure gauge in the cabinet should indicate steam pressure in a range of 9 to 11 psig.
Operating Procedures
The appliance and its parts are hot. Use care when operating, cleaning and servicing the appliance.
With Boiler In Operation Mode
1. Fill kettle with product to desired level.
2. Slowly turn the steam control valve to full open position.
3. The water or food should boil 3 - 4 minutes per gallon. If it does not, then incoming pressure should be checked to
determine that it is adequate to operate the kettle efficiently.
4. Regulate steam control valve depending on type of food being prepared.
5. When food is cooked, turn off steam, remove food and clean kettle immediately to prevent residue from drying on
kettle bowl surface.
Shut Down
Turn the Main Power Switch OFF. Open manual drain valve. If unit is supplied with Automatic Blowdown Valve, it will
open, draining the boiler and releasing hot water and steam to the drain.

the boiler tank and releasing water and steam to the drain. This should be done daily to
remove sediment, lime, or scale.
-
Indicates main power is ON.
-
Should read 9 -11 psi during operation; 0 psi during shutdown.
Observe level of water and water quality in the boiler. Murkiness in the water indicates
inadequate water quality; the owner must supply proper water to the boiler (see Service
Connections Water Quality Statement).
-
While boiler is ON, briefly open the water level control valve once a day to remove any sediment
that might accumulate. (see Periodic Maintenance Section).
-
This valve will release (pop off) if the boiler has too much pressure. Once a week, this
valve should be tripped during operation to make sure it functions properly.
