Maintenance
Dairy Draw-Off Valve Cleaning
1. Remove the plug by first removing the handle, then turn the plug to line up with the pin and pull with both hands. It is
important to use both hands because the plug is heavy.
2. Put the plug in a plastic pail that contains a mild soap solution. A plastic pail works best, as it reduces the possibility of
nicking or scratching the plug. If the plug gets scratched it may not seal correctly and could leak.
3. Use a soft cloth or soft brush and clean all surfaces.
4. Using both hands remove the valve from the soap and rinse well in another plastic pail that contains fresh water.
5. Wash out the kettle as normal.
6. Once the kettle is washed out, return the plug into the body. Be sure the plug is inserted into the notch and turned.
Ensure the plug is tight and secure before letting go of it.
If you are cleaning a body and plug assembly, remove the plug and follow the above procedures. When finished with the
plug, follow the same instructions for washing the body. Always use both hands when handling the plugs. Reassemble the
plug into the body and use as normal.
What to Do if Surface Rust Appears
Metal utensils should never be used as they will scratch the surface of the equipment and rust may begin to form. To
remove surface accumulation of rust from the inadvertent use of such utensils, the following procedure may be used.
1. Use undiluted white vinegar with a non-abrasive scouring pad (plastic) or cloth on the affected area to remove the rust
stain. The appliance should not be heated and remain at room temperature during the entire cleaning process.
2. If the stain resists removal, additional exposure time with vinegar may be required, to a maximum of one hour.
3. Thoroughly wash all of the vinegar away with fresh clear water. Dry the surface completely and allow one hour before
using the appliance to cook.
Following daily and period maintenance procedures will prolong the life for your equipment. Climatic conditions - salt air -
may require more thorough and frequent cleaning or the life of the equipment could be adversely affected.
