Installation
WARNING
THE BRAISING PAN MUST BE INSTALLED
BY PERSONNEL WHO ARE QUALIFIED TO
WORK WITH ELECTRICITY. IMPROPER
INSTALLATION COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.
Internal wiring for the Braising Pan is supplied complete. When you receive the unit, it
is ready for connection. A wiring diagram is located inside the console on the side of
the pan, as well as in this manual.
Your pan was performance-tested at the factory to confirm that its controls and
heating elements were functioning correctly.
Installation is as follows:
1. Set the unit in place on a level surface. The unit must be level to avoid uneven
cooking across the pan.
2. Provide the proper electric power supply as specified on the electrical
information plate. Observe local codes and/or The National Electrical Code in
accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition.
3. Bringing the electrical service through the entrance in the control box, make
a waterproof connection with the incoming lines. A BX connection is not
recommended. GROUND THE UNIT ELECTRICALLY AT THE TERMINAL PROVIDED.

Initial Start-Up
CAUTION
STAND AWAY FROM THE HOT WATER
WHILE TILTING THE PAN TO EMPTY IT.
Now that the Braising Pan has been installed, you should test it to ensure that it is
operating correctly.
1. Remove all literature and packing materials from the interior and exterior of the
unit.
2. Turn on the electrical power to the unit.
3. Put enough water into the pan to cover its bottom to a depth of ¼” to ½” (6 to 13
mm). With the pan body in the horizontal position, note how the water covers the
pan bottom. This is a good method to use for confirming that the unit is properly
leveled.
4. Set the thermostat to 235°F. The heating indicator light should come on to show
that the pan is heating. Heating should continue until the water boils.
5. To shut the unit down, turn the thermostat dial to “OFF.”
6. Position a container for the pour-off. Turn the handwheel clockwise to pour the
water out. This will confirm that the pan body tilts from horizontal to vertical.

The operator controls braising pan operation with the thermostat dial, which is located
on the right front of the unit. Setting the dial sends electric power to turn the heaters
on or off and sets the operating temperature of the pan.
A. To Start Pan
1. Turn on the electric power supply to the unit.
2. Turn the thermostat dial to a desired setting between 100 and 400°F
(38 and 204°C). The red indicator light will glow, showing that the pan
is heating. The light will cycle on and off, which indicates that the pan is
being held at the set temperature. Once in each cycle the contactors in the
control box will make a clicking sound. This is normal.
3. For best braising or frying results, preheat the pan before you put in any
food. To get an even temperature across the pan, preheat at a setting of
300°F (149°C) or less for 15 minutes (several thermostat on/off cycles).
B. Cooking
1. To simmer or slowly heat an item, set the dial at about 210°F (99°C)
or lower. Put the optional cover on the pan to keep moisture loss at
a minimum, or leave it off to help dry or reduce the product. Set the
thermostat higher to cook or drive moisture off faster. The thermostat may
be adjusted to any setting in its range to cook exactly as you wish.
2. When using the optional cover, leave the cover vent open to allow excess
steam to escape. For longer simmering, you may wish to close the vent to
retain moisture.
3. Be careful when lifting the optional cover. Lift its rear edge a few inches to
allow any steam or and hot vapor to escape the pan. Then tilt it further to
allow any hot condensate to roll off the cover and back into the pan.
4. To pour or dump product, remove grease, or assist cleaning, first remove
the cover, then tilt the pan. Be careful!
C. To Shut Down the Pan
1. Turn the thermostat dial to “OFF”.
2. For prolonged shut-down, or before cleaning the outside of the unit,
completely shut off the power supply to the unit.
D. Routine Cleaning
After each use, turn the thermostat to ”OFF” and clean all food-contact surfaces.
At the end of each day, or at least once every 12 hours, turn off electric power
to the unit, and clean both the interior and the exterior. See detailed cleaning
instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual.
OM-BTT-E 7
Page 10
Sequence of Operation
The following “action-reaction” outline is provided to help you understand how the
braising pan actually functions.
When you start the pan by turning the thermostat dial from “OFF” to a desired
temperature, the thermostat switch closes. This action causes the contactors to close,
allowing power to flow to the heating elements and the indicator light. When the
temperature of the pan rises to the value set on the thermostat dial, the thermostat
switch opens and causes the contactors to open. This stops the flow of power to the
heaters and indicator light.
As soon as the thermostat senses that the pan has cooled below the set temperature,
the thermostat switch closes, the contactors close, and the heaters and indicator light
come on again.
This on-off cycling continues, holding the pan at the set temperature. These cycles
cause the indicator light to go on and off during normal operation.
If the pan temperature rises above 425°F (218°C) for any reason, a high-limit
thermostat shuts off power until the pan cools. At that point the thermostat
automatically resets and allows normal operation to begin again.
Setting the thermostat dial to “OFF” shuts down all control and heating circuits.
The thermostat controls heating by alternately feeding full power and completely
cutting off power. The pan will heat as fast as it can until it reaches the set
temperature, no matter what that temperature is. Turning the thermostat dial to a
higher setting will only cause heating to continue longer, until the pan reaches the
higher temperature. It will not make the pan heat any faster.

Cleaning
WARNING
BEFORE ANY CLEANING OPERATION,
TURN THERMOSTAT DIAL TO “OFF” TO
CUT ANY POWER TO THE HEATING
ELEMENTS. BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART
OTHER THAN THE INSIDE OF THE PAN,
DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AT
CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX.
CAUTION
KEEP WATER AND CLEANING SOLUTIONS
OUT OF CONTROLS AND ELECTRICAL
EQUIPMENT. DO NOT SPRAY OR HOSE
THE CONTROL BOX OR OTHER
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS. THEY ARE
NOT WATER-PROOF.
CAUTION
MOST CLEANERS ARE HARMFUL TO THE
SKIN, EYES, MUCOUS MEMBRANES, AND
CLOTHING. PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE
TAKEN. WEAR RUBBER GLOVES,
GOGGLES OR FACE SHIELD AND
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING. READ THE
WARNINGS AND CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE
DIRECTIONS ON THE CLEANER LABEL.
A. Suggested Tools
1. Cleaner, such as Klenzade
2. Brushes in good condition
3. Cloth for cleaning controls
4. Chlorine sanitizer such as Klenzade
5. Heavy Duty Cleaner, such as Klenzade LC-30
B. Procedure
1. Clean all food-contact surfaces soon after use. It is best to clean the pan
before it has completely cooled. If the unit is in continuous use, completely
clean and sanitize both the inside and outside at least once every 12 hours.
2. To remove any large amount of food left in the pan, tilt the pan all the way
up and flush it with lukewarm water. Do not damage the surface of the pan
by scraping it with a metal tool. Scratches make the surface more difficult
to clean, and provide ideal breeding places for bacteria.
3. Following the supplier’s directions, make up a warm solution of the cleaner.
Carefully wash the inside and outside of the pan body with the cleaning
solution.
4. Use a cloth moistened with cleaning solution to clean controls, the control
console, and electric conduit.
5. Rinse the pan very well with lukewarm water, and drain it completely.
6. As part of the daily cleaning program, clean all inside and outside surfaces
that may have been soiled. Remember to check such parts as the electrical console and other remote spots. Clean between the pan body and the
console using a brush.
Don’t use metal implements or
steel wool when cleaning.
Use a brush, sponge, cloth, plastic or
rubber scraper, or plastic wool to clean.
7. To remove materials stuck to the equipment, use a brush, sponge, cloth,
plastic or rubber scraper, or plastic wool with the cleaning solution. To
make washing easier, let the cleaning solution sit in the unit and soak
into the residue, or briefly heat the solution. Do not use any gritty cleaner
or metal tool that might scratch the surface. Scratches make the surface
harder to clean and provide places for bacteria to grow. Do not use steel
wool. Small bits of steel wool left in the surface of the unit can cause rusting and pitting.
8. The outside of the unit may be polished with a recognized stainless steel
cleaner such as Zepper from the Zep Manufacturing Company.
9. When the equipment needs to be sanitized, use a sanitizing solution
equivalent to one that supplies 100 parts per million available chlorine.
Get advice about the best sanitizing agent from you supplier of sanitizing
products.
10. Following supplier instructions, apply the sanitizing agent after the unit has
been cleaned and drained. Thoroughly drain off the sanitizer.

Cleaning
CAUTION
NEVER LEAVE A CHLORINE SANITIZER IN
CONTACT WITH STAINLESS STEEL
SURFACES FOR LONGER THAN 30 MINUTES.
LONGER CONTACT CAN CAUSE CORROSION.
11. After the unit has been cleaned, sanitized and drained, let all surfaces air
dry unless the unit must be used again right away.
12. It is recommended that the unit be sanitized just before use. Follow the
directions of the sanitizer supplier.
13. About once a week (more often if the water is very hard), use a heavy duty
cleaner to remove mineral deposits or film left by hard water or foods. Follow the supplier’s directions very carefully, and thoroughly rinse the unit off
as soon as cleaning is finished.
14. If especially difficult cleaning problems persist, contact your cleaning
product supplier for help. The supplier has a trained technical staff with
laboratory facilities to serve you.
