Repair And Replacement - Market Forge Industries MT6 Owner's Manual

In the event that the kettle fails to operate correctly,
the difficulty should first be isolated to either the kettle
itself or the steam supply which heats the kettle. While
mechanical problems are obvious faults of the kettle,
any deficiencies in volume and pressure of the steam
should be traced to the steam generator and the cause
determined. Steam input requirements are listed be-
low. This list recommends delivered boiler horsepower
for kettle size and steam flow.
