Maintenance
NOTICE: Contact an authorized representative when
repairs are required.
A Maintenance and Service Log is provided at the back of this manual. Each time
maintenance is performed on your kettle, enter the date on which the work was done,
what was done, and who did it. File the log with the warranty.
Periodic inspection will minimize equipment down time and increase the efficiency of
operation. The following points should be checked:
1)
Once a day, with pressure in the jacket, check the operation of the safety valve.
Lift the lever of the safety valve until steam is released. Then release the
lever and let the valve snap shut. If the lever does not activate, or there is no
evidence of discharge, or the valve leaks, immediately discontinue use of the
kettle and contact a qualified service representative.
2)
At least once every 90 days, inspect fittings and valves for signs of damage
or wear. Regularly examine trunnion packings and valve seats for wear, and
replace them when necessary.
NOTE: Service performed by other than factory authorized personnel will void
all warranties.
3)
Lubricate trunnions and gears with a good grade of high temperature grease.
Grease trunnions at least once every 60 days, and grease gears when
inspection shows that they are dry.
