Page 11: Troubleshooting Maintenance
6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING MAINTENANCE 6.1 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE No preventive maintenance is required other than adhering to the Cleaning Procedure instructions. 6.2 DRAW-OFF VALVE LEAKS If a leak occurs through the valve steam, replace the “O” ring. If the leak can be attributed to faulty sealing occurring between the stem disc and valve seat, then quite often this problem can be corrected by cleaning off the dried on food residue with an extremely fine emery cloth or the rubber vulcanized stem piece has been damaged and must be replaced. - Page 12 located at the base of the kettle jacket may be opened to remove the water. It may be necessary to repeat this procedure several times depending on the number of batches being cooked as each batch will create condensate. If the kettle appears to be slow in heating, this would indicate that there is water in the jacket.
