INTRODUCTION
This manual contains general, maintanance, parts and service information for Market Forge Modular Direct
Connected Tilting Steam Jacketed Kettles. A parts list is included in which each replaceable part is identied
and shown in an accompanying illusstration unless otherwise indicated.
DESCRIPTION:
Market Forge MT-6 and MT-10 Tilting Steam Jacketed Kettles are mounted on a modular stainless steel
cabinet. Double wall construction around the lower half
of the kettle forms a surrounding chamber inot which
steam is introduced as a source of heat for cooking.
Steam input plumbing is equipped with a manual control valve. Condensate is removed through a steam trap
connecting with the kettle drain plumbing assembly. A
swing nozzle, hot-cold combination faucet provides a
source of water for addition to the kettle for cooking
and cleaning.
The 6 gallon kettle is mounted in a trunnion assembly
to the modular cabinet top. The trunnion pivots include
steam input and return connections for the kettle. Kettle
tilting is accomplished manually by moving the handle
xed to the rim so as to rotate the kettle in a trunnion.
SERVICE:
Modular kettles are exceptionally and durable cooking
equipment requiring a minimum of service other then
routine cleaning and preventive methods explained
on page 2. Should repairs be required, a network of
authorized service agencies is available to assist with
prompt service. A current directory of authorized service agencies may be obtained by contacing:

REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT
In the event that the kettle fails to operate correctly,
the difculy should rst be isolated to eother the kettle
itself or the steam supply which heats the kettle. While
mechanical problems are obvious faults of the kettle,
any deciences in volume and pressure of the steam
should be traced to the steam generator and the cause
determined. Steam input requirements are listed below. This list recommends delivered boiler horsepower
for kettle size and steam ow.
MT-6 1/3 BHP 15-50 PSI
MT-10 2/3 BHP 15-50 PSI
MT-6T6 1/3 BHP 15-50 PSI
MT-10T6 1/3 BHP 15-50 PSI
MT-10T10 1/3 BHP 15-50 PSI
LFT-6 1/3 BHP 15-50 PSI
LFT-10 2/3 BHP 15-50 PSI
CABINET EXTERIOR REMOVAL:
Side and rear panels of all cabinets in which kettles are
mounted are easily removed without the use of tools.
Each panel is grasped at the bottom edge and pulled
out sharply to release it from the panel mounting brackets shown in gure 5 on page 7. Replacement is completed by pushing panel up under the cabinet top and
pressing in at the bottom until panel mounting brackets
are engaged.
Doors may be removed to improve access to cabinet
interior for repairs as shown in gure 5 on page 7 and
8. The two at head scres, nuts, and holding cabinet

on page 7 and 8. When doors are remounted, the nal
tightened position of hinge determines the alignment
of the door and must be set with care, also shown in
gure 5 on page 7 and 8.
