SECTION I OPERATION

1-1 Water

The wash tank is equipped with a float assembly that turns water off when proper level is achieved.

The water temperature is controlled by a heater and a thermostat. The thermostat should be set to provide a wash water temperature between 145° F /60° C and 160° F /71° C.

1-2 Filling Wash Tank

Ensure that the standpipe is in place. Put the toggle switch in the “AUTO” position. This will also turn the heater on. To start the conveyor and detergent pump, put the main switch on the front of the machine in the” ON” position.

Detergent is fed from the supply container into the detergent tank in controlled amounts by the detergent pump. Use detergent at strength of 0.35% or as recommended by your chemical supplier to accomplish the necessary cleaning job.

NOTE: Use a heavy-duty NON-CHLORINATED liquid detergent manufactured specifically for glassware washing machines.

Your chemical representative will test the solution to insure the proper strength is recommended.

NOTE: Many of the detergents used in glass and dishwashers are harmful to the skin in their concentrated form. To prevent accidental exposure to this danger, be sure all hoses are secure and clamped after service to machine.

1-3 Chemical Settings

Approximate chemical settings can be obtained by counting the revolutions of the injector rotors.

For detergent, one revolution per second equals approximately .035% concentration.

For sanitizer, one revolution in 5 seconds equals approximately .035% concentration

For rinse agent, on revolution in 8 seconds is suggested.

1-4 Detergent Injector Adjustment

1. Install the detergent tank standpipe and switch tank fill toggle switch to “AUTO” position. The detergent feeder will now feed detergent into the detergent tank with water fill.

2.To increase detergent volume, turn the detergent adjustment screw clockwise.

3.To decrease detergent volume, turn the detergent adjustment screw counter-clockwise.

1-4 Sanitizer Injector Adjustment

The sanitizer is automatically fed into the line through the sanitizer injector. Injection is into the final rinse sprays.

1.When a new sanitizer container is installed, push the prime button in and hold until sanitizer feed tubes are full.

2.Start the washer—take a sample from the final rinse spray tubes.

3.To increase sanitizer volume, turn the detergent adjustment screw clockwise.

4.To decrease sanitizer volume, turn the detergent adjustment screw counter-clockwise.

NOTE: If iodophor is being used as a sanitizer, it is not necessary to use a separate rinse agent. To turn the rinse agent injector “OFF” in this case, turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise until the rotor stops turning.

NOTE: If chlorine is being used, a separate rinse agent is required to prevent spotting.

1-5 Rinse Agent Injector Adjustment

1.When a new rinse agent container is installed, push the prime button in and hold until sanitizer feed tubes are full.

2.Start the washer—take a sample from the final rinse spray tubes.

3.To increase rinse agent volume, turn the detergent adjustment screw clockwise.

4.To decrease rinse agent volume, turn the detergent adjustment screw counter-clockwise.

NOTE: The above only allows for testing the sanitizer being fed. Actual sanitizing rinse solution should be tested by your chemical supplier representative.

NOTE: To meet the requirement of N.S.F. standards, iodophor in a concentration of 12.5 p.p.m. of chlorine at 50 p.p.m. must be used in the final rinse.
