INTRODUCTION
THIS OWNERS MANUAL CONTAINS DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION, INSTALLATION, OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS, MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING INFORMATION FOR MODELS FT-4CE,
FT-6CE, FT-10CE & FT-12CE STEAM-JACKETED KETTLES. PARTS LISTS ARE ALSO INCLUDED IN
WHICH EACH REPLACEABLE PART IS IDENTIFIED AND SHOWN IN AN ACCOMPANYING
ILLUSTRATION.
Description:
Market Forge Models FT-4CE (4-gallon capacity), FT-6CE (6 gallon capacity), FT-10CE (10 gallon capacity)
and FT-12CE (12 gallon capacity) are electrically powered, self-contained, counter-top, tilting Kettles. Each
model has a jacket of double-wall construction forming a sealed reservoir around the lower 2/3 of the
kettle.
The reservoir is charged with water and anti-freeze solution. Kettles are equipped with a removable
electric heating element and controls, including a low water cutoff device for protection of the heating
element. Both models are of identical construction, except for kettle size and element heating capacity.
1
Basic Functioning:
Self-contained kettles operate by generating steam in the kettle reservoir. The sequence of operation is
as follows:
1. Operator flips the power switch to the ON position and sets the temperature control dial at the
desired setting from 1 to 10 (90°F to 300°F, 32°C to 149°C, jacket temperature).
2. Control circuit is normally completed to the temperature controller if the following conditions
exist:
a. Water level in kettle reservoir is adequate to prevent circuit interruption by the low
water cutoff device. An activated cutoff is indicated by the amber low water light turning
on, and the heating element shutting off.
b. Kettle is in vertical position with circuit completed through the tilt interlock switch (Micro
switch).
3. Thermostatic control contacts close to energize contactor coils.
4. Power is supplied to the elements through closed power contactors.
5. As the temperature of water rises in the kettle reservoir increase in steam pressure is indicated on
the pressure gauge.
6. When the temperature of steam in the reservoir reaches the setting shown on the temperature
control dial the temperature controller opens to break the contacts and shut off the heating
element. ON/OFF cycles will occur as required to maintain temperature control. See operation
section.

Tilting Instructions
Your kettle has the standard “Clean Lock” feature and may not be tilted without disengaging the tilt
knob located on the console at the top right. This feature locks the kettle in the upright position and
also allows the operator to lock the kettle at 105 degrees for ease of cleaning. To tilt the kettle the full
distance, the tilt lock knob must be disengaged from the cleaning position by pulling out the tilt lock
knob and tilting the kettle forward the full distance. Follow these steps to tilt kettle:
1. Pull out the tilt knob near top right of console.
2. Using kettle tilt handle pull kettle forward to desired angle of pour or until kettle locks at 105 degrees.
The tilt knob can be released after the kettle has been tilted approximately 10°.
3. Kettle will lock in position at 105 degrees and may be tilted further by pulling the tilt lock knob a
second time allowing the kettle to tilt the full distance.
4. To return the kettle to the upright position, pull out the tilt lock knob and tilt the kettle upward
until it locks in the upright position. The kettle should not move in either direction once in the
upright position.

HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Clear yellow liquid. Odourless. Avoid temperatures above 450°F, 232°C.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS
EYE:
May cause slight transient (temporary) eye irritation. Corneal injury is unlikely. Mists may cause
(See Section 11 for toxicological data.)
eye irritation.
SKIN CONTACT:
Prolonged contact is essentially nonirritating to skin. A single prolonged exposure is not
likely to result in the material being absorbed through skin in harmful amounts. Repeated exposures may
cause flaking and softening of skin.
INGESTION:
Single dose oral toxicity is considered to be extremely low. No hazards anticipated
from swallowing small amounts incidental to normal handling operations.
INHALATION:
At room temperature, vapours are minimal due to physical properties. Mists may
cause irritation of upper respiratory tract (nose and throat).
SYSTEMIC (OTHER TARGET ORGAN) EFFECTS:
Repeated excessive exposure to propylene glycol
may cause central nervous system effects.
CANCER INFORMATION:
TERATOLOGY (BIRTH DEFECTS):
Did not cause cancer in laboratory animals.
Birth defects are unlikely. Exposures having no adverse effects on the
mother should have no effect on the fetus.
REPRODUCTIVE EFFECTS:
In animal studies, has been shown not to interfere with reproduction.

HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS
addition to unidentified toxic and/or irritating compounds. Hazardous combustion products may
include and are not limited to carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
OTHER FLAMMABILITY INFORMATION
application of direct water stream to hot liquids. Flammable concentrations of vapour can accumulate at
temperatures above 214°F. Liquid mist of this product can burn. Spills of these organic liquids on hot
fibrous insulations may lead to lowering of the autoignition temperatures possibly resulting in
spontaneous combustion. Container may rupture from gas generation in a fire situation.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
resistant foams (ATC type) are preferred if available. General purpose synthetic foams (including AFFF) or
protein foams may function, but much less effectively. Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire.
MEDIA TO BE AVOIDED
FIRE FIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
liquids may be moved by flushing with water to protect personnel and minimize property damage.
Burning liquids may be extinguished by dilution with water. Do not use direct water stream. May spread
fire. Fight fire from protected location or safe distance. Consider use of unmanned hose holder or
monitor nozzles. Use water spray to cool fire exposed containers and fire affected zone until fire is
out and danger of re-ignition has passed. Immediately withdraw all personnel from area in case of
rising sound from venting safety device or discolouration of the container. Move container from fire
area if this is possible without hazard.
: Water fog or fine spray, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, foam. Alcohol
: Do not use direct water stream.
: Keep people away. Isolate fire area and deny unnecessary entry. Burning
