Instructions For Steam Generator Care
Protect your steam generator, prolong its life and preserve its performance by giving it the required daily attention, on a regular
schedule. Follow servicing instructions for your steam generator which are printed on Data Sheet 260-LC in your Owner s Manual,
and also or an adhesive label attached to the unit. To obtain an additional data sheet or label carrying servicing instructions, write to
the Cleveland Range Company.
No work should be dorm on the steam generator while it pressurized or hot. Service of the steam generator
should only be performed by a trained and experienced service technician, thoroughly My familiar with servicing
steam generators. When maintenance or repairs are required, contact a located food service equipment service
agency, or call the factory, or a factory representative for the name and address of one in your area.
WARNING
Steam Generator (Boiler) Safety
Rigid regulations govern the design and construction of a boiler. However, the responsibility for the safe and efficient
operation of a boiler shifts to the owner/user after the boiler leaves the factory.
A sound boiler if improperly installed, or if improperly maintained, or if improperly repaired, will create a dangerous situation and
may cause injury to personnel.
Most sates, provinces and some cities nave a boiler safety law. Many underwriters require that their clients' boilers comply with these
boiler safety laws. These safety laws call for action by the boiler manufacturer and action by the boiler owner/user.
As a manufactur er. The Cleveland Range Company delivers steam generators built me ASME Boiler Code. Section IV. which have
been inspected by a National Board Inspector. Also. each Cleveland Range Company boiler is built to comply with the boiler safety
law of the state t o which it is sent
Safe and Effecient Boiler Operation Depends on Proper Installation
Install the boiler in compliance with following regulations, where they apply:
— The National Fuel Gas Code. ANSI Z223.1-1984
—— installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances and
Equipment B149.1 and B149.2
— The Cleveland Range Company Installation instruc-
tions
— The National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No.70-1984
The water for the boiler should be analyzed by a reputable boiler water specialist to see if the quality will permit safe and
efficient boiler operation. Water treatment is becoming increasingly necessary because the quality of water sources is
deteriorating. although treatment will not be required in every case. A boiler will not operate properly for very long if the
water causes boiler corrosion or scale. Even water which 13 safe to drink may be detrimental to a boiler. Refer to Water
quality Requirements page for details.
Safety Requires Periodic Inspection and Maintenance
Any leaks around the boiler's hand note plate must be Quickly stopped. Small leaks, it unchecked, cause corrosion and
pitting on the boiler face around the hand hole gasket, making it unsealable.
Application of undue stress on the parts that are used to seal the boiler's hand hole opening, in an attempt to seal an
unsealable opening, by sledging the handle of the wrench, by increasing the leverage of the wrench a length of pipe. or
by other means, is dangerous because it may result the breakage of parts, or injury. No attempts should be made 10
tighten up the nut on the retaining stud beyond the recommended 15 foot pounds of torque.
When a repair affecting the safety of the boiler is necessary. call a National Board Inspector consultation and advice as to
the best method of making the repair, so that the completed work will get his approval. Repairs to the boiler must conform
to the applicable provisions in the ASME. Code or the National Board Rules for Repairs.
A boiler will last many years before it has to be retired from service. Periodic inspection will reveal the approaching
retirement time. It a better to schedule a convenient replacement time than to wait for the boiler to fail. When a boiler older
man 10 years is replaced, the entire steam generator base assembly should be replaced for a number reasons:
— Replacement parts become increasingly difficult to obtain for older controls.
— Dependable performance of the new controls can be assured for a longer time.
— The new steam generator, including controls, will comply with the latest industry and safety standards.

PRESSURE STEAMER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: These instructions pertain to steamers equipped with self-contained steam generators (boilers).Forr steamers direct-connected to a
remote (in -house) steam source, disregard those instructions which are directly and solely related to the self-contained steam generator. These
instructions are to be retained by the owner/user for future reference.
1A Open the cabinet base door and close the drain valve if it is open.
B Make sure the hot and cold water supply valves are open
C For steamers equipped with a gas-fired steam generator (boiler) follow the lighting instructions noted on the instruction label displayed on
the unit before continuing to instruction in item 2.
2 Flip the t oggle switch on front of the cabinet console to "ON" The red console light should then glow and the boiler will automatically
begin filling with water (if it is not already full).
3 After approximately five minutes (after water appears in the sight gauge), depress the ""START" reset button on the console. This will
energize the electric heater elements or ignite the gas burners. This cannot be accomplished until the boiler is full of water.
4 in approximately 15 minutes you will notice the console's steam pressure gauge register 5 pounds.(10 pounds if the boiler is also supplying
steam to a kettle- Theupper pressure gauge will register 5 pounds.) You can now preheat the cooking compartments.
5 Compartments should be preheated before use and should be kept hot between loads. If a Kettle and steamer are to be used at the same
time, always heat the kettle unit first. When kettle contents begin to simmer, preheat the steamer compartments- When pressure on the
boiler gauge returns to 10 pounds, cooking may begin in the steamer
6 Close and latch door securely. Turn bar handle clockwise until the door gasket just touches the compartment face
7 Start steam supply by pulling steam valve handle out. If fined with automatic timer, set timer for 5 minutes. At the start, compartment
thermostatic traps should release air and wet steam tor about two minutes, then shut off.
8 Seal compartment door by turning bar handle clockwise just until steam leakage stops. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
9 At the completion of the 5 minute preheatin g cycle, push steam valve slowly in, to avoid boilovers. This shuts off the steam supply and also
depressurizes and drains the compartment. If fitted with an automatic timer, the steam shuts off automatically and a bell rings when the
timer reaches zero. Setting the timer to "Off" stops the bell.
10 To open compartment door, turn bar handle counter-clockwise and delatch.
11 Cooking can now begin by following the above operating steps #6 through #10, but setting the timer for the required cooking time- At the
end of a cooking cycle 40 minutes long or longer, or when defrosting frozen foods, wait at least two minutes for the compartments) to
depressurize and drain before opening the compartment door.
CAUTION: After each cooking cycle, ensure that all water is draining, and not accumulating in the
compartment. Should a drain become obstructed, it must be cleared before attempting to cook in that
compartment.
12. At the end of each day's operation, flip the console toggle switch to the "Blowdown" position, open t he door in the cabinet base and open
the boiler drain valve, (red handle). This "Blowdown" drains the boiler and helps to keep it dean. When the boiler is empty, flip the console
toggle switch to the "OFF" position and dose the boiler drain valve
13. It is recommended that the boiler be refilled with water after the "Blowdown" is performed. This can be accomplished by flipping the
toggle switch to the "ON" position for a period of five minutes and then returning the switch to the "OFF" position.
1. Blow down the steam generator daily.
2. A periodic boiler inspection must be performed by a qualified serviceman to prolong its life and to minimize service calls
3. At the end of each day's operation, wash the pan slides, drain screen covers, door gaskets, and compartment interiors with mild detergent
and warm water- Thoroughly rinse with clean water. Rinse water should drain freely through the compartment drain openings. If it does not,
the drain must be cleaned before using the steamer.
4. Once a week. flush each compartment drain with a food service equipment drain cleaner and a deliming solution
5 Once every three months, shut off the water supply (hot and cold), and clean the water line strainers.
6. Compartment thermostatic traps can be disassembled and cleaned, by hand or in a mechanical dishwasher. This procedure is recommended
if the traps act sluggishly, as they may if contaminated by grease or other film. If cleaning fails to restore the trap's proper functioning,
replace the trap. For more detailed thermostatic trap servicing instruc tions., refer to Data Sheet 260-LH.

7. Shelves, drain screens, and pan slides arc stainless steel, and can be washed safely in a mechanical dishwasher.
8. Exterior Care: Allow steamer 10 cool before washing. Use the same cleaners and cleaning procedures as for other kitchen surfaces of stainless
steel and aluminum. Mild soapy water, with a clear water rinse, ;s recommended. DC no: allow water to run into electncal controls- Always
turn off equipment power before using water to wash equipment.
9. Compartment Door Care:a. When doors are closed tor preheating or cooking, turn bar handle just enough to stop steam leakage. Overtightening shortens gasket life.
b. When doors are open or unlatched. Do not turn bar handle.
c Always leave compartment doors ajar when not in use, to extend gasket life and to prevent gaskets from adhering to the steamer.
Unnecessary compression of a gasket shorten its life.
d Keep bar handle screws clean. Lubricate frequently but not excessively.
e. Door gaskets provide many months of service when care is taken to operate doors properly. When a gasket finally wears and does not
maintain an effective seal, it must be replaced. Door gaskets can be replaced easily without special tools or cement, and the steamer may
be used immediately afterwards- Remove the old gasket and dean the channel. being careful not to damage the channel. The new gasket
can then be pressed into place. Insert the gasket in thecorners of the channel first, adjusting the slack evenly between the comers - Then
work from the comers to the center. Ridges hold the gasket firmly. The gasket is designed to be oversize, so once it is compressed into the
door's channel, it remains firmly in place.
PRESSURESTEAMER SAFETY
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Being the owner of a steamer carries with it the responsibility for Keeping it in as safe a condition as when it was shipped from
the factory. Safe steamer operation dictates that every pressure steamer must have the following safety inspection at least every
12 months.
1. Steam Valve Linkages
Have a qualified serviceman examine the steam valve linkages which are attached to the inlet and exhaust valves' operating
handles on the left side of the steamer. This pivoted linkage, which is attached to both the steam inlet valve and the steam
exhaust valve, must prevent the door's latch from disengaging from its catch when the steamer compartment is pressurized. It
is important that the linkage operates as described so that the steamer door cannot be opened when the compartment is
pressurized.
It is also important that when the steam valve is closed, the exhaust valve should open. The proper operation of the steam inlet
valve and the steam exhaust valve should be confirmed and observed while the steam is on.
2. Pressure Gauge Check each pressure gauge. Gauge pointer must return to zero when the steam generator is shut down. Look
for signs of water, rust, corrosion, or scale, inside the pressure gauge. A faulty pressure gauge should be replaced
immediately.
a Door Gaskets
Inspect and replace compartment door gaskets once a year, or sooner if they are torn or hardened. The use of a hardened gasket
produces undue stress in the parts which comprise the door enclosure and may result in breakage and injury.
4. Compartment Thermostatic Trap
Observe compartment thermostatic traps for proper operation. A good compartment trap, at start-up of a cooking cycle, is
normally open and releases air and wet steam briskly for a few minutes. then holds steam within compartment. If brisk venting
doesn't begin immediately at start-up, or if brisk venting continues without stopping, and the compartment trap is over a year
old, it should be cleaned, or a new one installed- Refer to data sheet 260-LH for details
5 Compartment Steam Exhaust Valves and Drain Valves
Make sure that the compartment steam exhaust valves, and the drain lines attached to them, are free of food buildup internally
and are venting freely to the atmosphere. If drain lines from other steam-consuming equipment have been connected to the
drain line from the steamer, the other drain lines should be disconnected. Never operate a compartment without the drain
screen cover in place.
6. Refer to separate data sheets for steam generator operation, maintenance, and safety procedures.
WARNING
Service of steam cooking equipment should only be performed by a trained and experienced service technician,
thoroughly familiar with servicing steam equipment. No work should be performed on the steamer while it is
pressurized or hot. Be sure all energy sources are shut off before the start of any work. When maintenance or repairs
are required, contact a local food service equipment service agency, or call the factory. or a factory representative, for
the name and address of one in your area.

PRESSURE STEAMERS: THERMOSTATIC TRAP AND
COMPARTMENT DOOR GASKET REPLACEMENT
The thermostatic trap and door gasket on your steamer stop the escape of steam from the compartment during operation. Steam leakage from
either source will cause loss of pressure. which will result in longer cooking time. wasted Steam and
excessive condensation.
To keep your steamer operating at peak efficiency. thermostatic traps and compartment door gaskets require periodic replacement Frequency
of replacement vanes from one piece of equipment to another depending on the amount of usage, and frequency and quality of maintenance.
A normal thermostatic trap at Startup releases air and wet steam briskly for the first few minutes, then holds steam within the compartment.
During cooking, the trap will also release accumulated condensate ana a small amount of air
It brisk venting doesn't begin immediately at startup or if brisk venting continues for much longer than two minutes. and the compartment
trap is over a year old, it should be cleaned, or removed and a new one installed.
A compartment trap less than a year old mayact sluggishly only because it is contaminated by grease and otherfilm.
To remove a thermostatic trap. unscrew the union nut
as shown on the sketch.
To clean the trap. unscrew the threaded! diaphragm cover from
the body and wash the entire assembly. A more thorough cleaning
can be accomplished by removing and disassembling the trap. and
washing the entire assembly in a mechanical dish washer.
With proper tools, the threaded diaphragm cover can be unscrewed
from the body. and the thermostatic diaphragm can be unscrewed
from the diaphragm cover, if the trap does not work property after
thorough cleaning. install a new one.
If the steamer is used heavily for cooking foods contain ing large
amounts of fat or starch. periodic cleaning is recommended as a routine procedure
Replace the gaskets on compartment doors once a year. or sooner if they are torn or hardened.
Door gaskets can be replaced easily without special tools or cement, and the steamer may be used immediately afterwards.
Remove the old gasket and clean the channel, being careful not to damage the channel. The new gasket can then be pressed into place.
insert the gasket in the corners of the channel first, adjusting the slack evenly between the comers. Then work from the comers to the center.
