Turn the screw counterclockwise to decrease the pressure setting. The USN-10 dishwasher requires a flowing pressure of 20-22 PSI during the final rinse. With the dishwasher in normal operation, place a dishrack in the machine. While final rinse water is flowing, monitor the final rinse pressure gauge located at the top of final rinse piping assembly.
Reinstall in reverse order. Turn on water supplies and check for leaks. 5.3.3 Vacuum Breaker Repair Vacuum Breakers are located at the top of the USN-10 in the 1/2" final rinse water line and each of the 1/2" tank fill lines. They prevent the siphoning of dish-machine water back into the potable water supply.
Replace the thermometer and reassemble in reverse order. Be sure to apply plumber's putty, (Champion P/N 104889), to seal the thermometer bulb fitting in the tank. Return the dishwasher to normal operation and check the temperature reading.
Install the new high limit in the reverse order, making sure that you apply a plumber's putty (Champion P/N 104889), to seal the high limit fitting in the tank. Return the dishwasher to normal operating condition.
To replace the final rinse/ cutoff thermostat: Turn off the water and steam supplies to the booster. Place a rack in the dishwasher to operate the final rinse and bleed off any water pressure from the line. Turn power off to the dishwasher at the dishwasher control. Remove the protective cap from the thermo- stat body.
1/2" NPT thermodynamic steam traps are installed in the condensate lines for the steam booster and tank heat steam coils. All condensate lines for the USN-10 must be gravity drain with no back pressure in order for the steam trap to function correctly.
No acids are needed to clean the heater tubes. NOTE: A single spiral, fine wire brush, 3/4" external diameter, (Champion P/N 112806), or comparable is recommended for cleaning the booster heater tubes. Annual Heater Tube Cleaning...
16. Reinstall impeller, and new flange gaskets. Reinstall bolts. Reinstall drain plug. 17. Reinstall the pump/motor assembly and reconnect the pump hoses. 18. Fill the dishwasher with water. 19. Check motor rotation by bump starting motor. Correct motor shaft rotation is clockwise when viewing motor from the rear.
“0” showing then the overload has tripped on an overload. To Reset the Motor Overload: • Flip the starter switch to the On position. • Run the dishwasher and test the AMP draw of the motor in question. If the motor checks okay then there may be a wiring problem or the overload may be defective.
