dishwasher and booster tank power supplies. Lockout/Tagout to prevent the power supplies

2) Remove the front panel and top panel of the booster tank.
3) Remove the control box cover, and disconnect the CN8 connector from the control board
(see "II.F.2. Control Board Layout").
4) To check the booster tank water level fl oat switch, check for continuity across the orange

when the fl oat is down and closed when the fl oat is up.

pink and light blue wires (#3 and #4) on the CN8 connector. Confi rm that the fl oat switch

2. Float Switch Cleaning

Depending on local water conditions, scale may build up on the fl oat switches. Scale on the
switches can cause the fl oats to stick. In this case, the fl oat switches should be cleaned.
1) Use the "ON/OFF" button on the operation panel to turn off the unit, then turn off the
dishwasher and booster tank power supplies. Lockout/Tagout to prevent the power supplies
from being turned back on inadvertently.
2) Remove the front panel and top panel of the booster tank.
3) Use a soft brush to remove scale or soil on the fl oat switches, or wipe down the fl oat
switches with a mixture of 1 part of Hoshizaki "Scale Away" and 25 parts of warm water.
4) Rinse the parts thoroughly with clean water.
5) If the fl oat switch is removed, replace it in its correct position. Be careful not to confuse
the positions and directions of the booster tank water level fl oat switch and the booster
tank backup water level fl oat switch. Make sure the fl oats can move freely in the vertical
directions (see "II.A.2. Booster Tank").
6) Replace the booster tank panels.
