Equipment Description
A.All Models
The Groen TDC/3, TDC/2, TDO/1, TDO, TDA/1 and TD/2 are tilting, table-top kettles with direct steam-heated jackets. The one-piece stainless steel body on each includes a butterfly shaped pouring lip. The kettles have a 180 emery grit interior finish and a bright semi-deluxe exterior finish.
Every unit requires a remote steam source. The steam supply is controlled by an inlet valve, and enters the jacket through one support and rotary joint. Condensate leaves the jacket through the other rotary joint and support. Standard units are ASME shop inspected, stamped, and registered with the National Board. These kettles operate efficiently at pressures above five PSI. A safety valve, strainer, steam trap, and check valve are all required for installation, and may be ordered from Groen as optional equipment.
B. Model TDC/3
The TDC/3 kettle has a 2/3 jacket rated for working pressures up to 55 PSI. The kettle body incorporates a triple reinforced rim. Two tubular steel supports support the swivel on which the kettle tilts. A leg projects from the bottom of the kettle.
The design of the TDC/3 makes it easy for one person to tilt the kettle with the tilting handle, even when the kettle is full.
C. Model TDC/2
The TDC/2 resembles the TDC/3, except that the kettle rests on a chrome plated base with arms, and has a maximum operating pressure of 45 PSI.
D. Models TDO and TDO/1
The TDO and TDO/1 Oyster Cookers have a special purpose kettle body and supports similar to those of the TDC/2 and TDC/3, with a tilting handle.

E.Model TDA/1
The TDA/1 kettle incorporates a triple reinforced rim and a 2/3 jacket registered for working pressures up to 50 PSI. Two chrome-plated arms support the trunnions on which the kettle tilts. The arm that also serves as the steam inlet has an integral steam control valve.
F. |
Model TD/2 |
TDA/1 |
The TD/2 kettle has a 2/3 jacket rated to operate at pressures up to 50 PSI. Two stainless steel legs support the trunnion. A crank-operated gear mechanism is used to tilt the kettle and to hold it in position.

STANDARD PIPING FOR TDC/3, TDC/2, TDO/1, TDO and TD/2
The inlet valve may be located anywhere on the cabinet top or face but not through the face casting. The illustrated sleeve is designed to simplify valve installation by allowing the valve to shift off center by 1/4", if necessary. This should be enough to allow for thread take-up and misalignment.
*Accessories available from Groen as options. Piping is to be supplied by the installer.

Initial Start-Up
IMPORTANT
BE SURE ALL OPERATORS READ, UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, CAUTIONS, AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL.
Now that the kettle has been installed, you should test it to ensure that it is operating correctly.
1.Remove all literature and packing materials from inside and outside of the unit.
2.Pour a small amount of water into the kettle.
3.Open the steam inlet valve.
4.When the water begins to boil, inspect all of the fittings to ensure that there are no leaks.
5.Check the safety valve by lifting its lever far enough to let steam escape. Then let it snap back into place to reseat the valve so that it will not leak.
6.Shut down the unit by closing the steam inlet valve.
WARNING
AVOID ANY EXPOSURE TO ESCAPING STEAM, WHICH CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS.
7.Operate the tilting mechanism to confirm that this feature functions through the whole range of normal operation.
If the unit functions as described above, it is ready for use. If the unit does not function as intended, contact your local Groen Certified Service Agency.
Operation
To heat the kettle, open the steam inlet valve. Adjusting the valve allows you to control the heating rate. Opening the valve more allows steam to flow into the jacket faster, and heats the product faster.
The kettle operates efficiently at pressures from five PSI to the maximum working pressure for which the kettle was designed. The maximum pressure is stamped on the kettle nameplate.
Tilting
To transfer product or empty the kettle: the kettle is designed and manufactured to be tilted in a controlled manner. Grasp the insulated plastic ball firmly. Maintain a firm grip on handle when tilting, while keeping the kettle body in a tilted position and then SLOWLY returning the kettle body to an upright position.
A.TDC/3, TDC/2, TDO. TDO/1 and TDA/1:
Pull the handle forward to tilt the kettle, backward to return the kettle to upright position.
WARNING
AVOID EXPOSURE TO ESCAPING STEAM, WHICH CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS.
B.TDA
The tilting handle on this older model is spring-loaded to latch the kettle in position. To tilt the kettle, pull up on the tilting handle to release the latch,
