The Variety Steamer produces steam using plain
tap water for quick heating and reconstituting of food
items. Simple push button action delivers an impulse
of steam. Because the amount of steam is consistent,
it removes the guesswork and produces a uniform finished product from one operator to the next.
This manual provides the safety, installation and oper
ating procedures for the Variety Steamer. We recom
mend that all information contained in this manual be
read prior to installing and operating the unit.
Your Variety Steamer is manufactured from the finest
materials available and is assembled to Roundup’s
strict quality standards. This unit has been tested at
the factory to ensure dependable trouble-free operation.
Please read the full text of the Limited Warranty in this
manual.
If the unit arrives damaged, contact the carrier imme
diately and file a damage claim with them. Save all
packing materials when filing a claim. Freight damage
claims are the responsibility of the purchaser and are
-
not covered under warranty.
The warranty does not extend to:
• Damages caused in shipment or damage as
result of improper use.
• Installation of electrical service.
• Normal maintenance as outlined in this manual.
• Malfunction resulting from improper maintenance.
-
• Damage caused by abuse or careless handling.
• Damage from moisture into electrical
components
• Damage from tampering with, removal of, or
changing any preset control or safety device.
IMPORTANT! Keep these instructions for future reference. If the unit changes owner-
ship, be sure this manual accompanies the equipment.

WARNING
BE SURE TO FOLLOW ALL GUIDELINES, PRO
CEDURES, AND PRECAUTIONS LISTED IN THE
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION SECTION OF
THIS MANUAL.
PLUMBING
CAUTION
This equipment is to be installed to comply with
the basic plumbing code of the Building Officials
and Code Administrators, Inc. (BOCA) and the
Food Service Sanitation Manual of the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA).
NOTE: Variety Steamer models are designed to
use cold tap water.
This unit requires a direct water hookup. A Water Inlet
Hose and Strainer Assembly (Figure 2) are supplied.
1. Turn off the water valve (not supplied) that pro
-
vides water to the unit (Figure 2).
2. Connect the 1/4” (6.5 mm) I.D. flexible tubing to
the outlet side of the Water Pressure Regulator
and secure with the Worm Clamp as shown in
Figure 2.
NOTE: A Water Pressure Regulator (P/N 7000314)
must first be installed as shown in Figure 2.
Failure to do so will result in poor steaming and
possible flooding.
3. Turn water valve on.
4. While holding over a bucket, press and hold the
“white” plastic tip on the Quick Disconnect insert
until good, steady water flow is noted. This will purge all air out of the line. Release and note
the pressure on the Water Pressure Regulator
Gauge. If should read 20 PSI. If it reads more
or less, adjust the pressure by pulling the black
knob upwards and turning it clockwise to increase
(counter clockwise to decrease) the water pressure. Push the knob down to lock it in place.
NOTE: When adjusting the knob, you must relieve
the existing pressure by pressing the “White”
plastic tip on the Quick Disconnect insert for 3 seconds. The gauge will now show the new pressure
setting.
5. Push the Quick Disconnect insert into the fitting
at the rear of the unit until it “clicks.” (Figure 2).
NOTE: Incoming water is controlled by a solenoid
valve inside the electrical housing of the steamer.
6. Connect the black drain hose to the drip tray as
shown in Figure 2. Place the other end of the
drain hose in a drain or collection pan.
CAUTION
Water pressure must not exceed 30 psi (2.1 kg/
cm2 or 207 kPa). Higher water pressures may
cause poor performance or flooding. To reduce
water pressure, install a water pressure regulator, and set water pressure between 20-25 psi (1.4
- 1.7 kg/cm2 or 138 - 172 kPa). To order a water
pressure regulator from your authorized service
center, order Roundup part no. 7000314.
