Water Tube Replacement

Stores that have harder water in their areas may experience scale buildup in their water tubes, thus clogging the tube and preventing water from being dispensed into the steaming chamber. If the tube needs to be replaced, this sheet will illustrate how to replace the water tube.

First, turn off and unplug steamer. Let steamer cool down. To remove the rear cover plate that shields the water tube, use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the two screws. Next, take off the rear cover plate to access the water tube.

To pull the tube out from the water valve, push in the grey disk on the water valve and then slowly slide the tube from the water valve.

Using pliers, gently pull the tube out from the platen. You may need to softly rock it back and forth. Replace the black insulating bushing if the original bushing pulled out with the water tube. All units must have a bushing installed. To reinstall the bushing, lubricate it with water and push it back into the opening.

Platen must be cool.

CAUTION

To insert the new tube, first insert the top end through the hole that leads to the platen. The tube will fit through the insulating bushing.

Push the other end of the tube into the water valve. Ensure that you feel it click into place. Gently tug on the water tube to check if it is secure. If the tube slides out, reinstall the tube. If tube is improperly installed, water will leak at this point.

Finally, reinstall the rear cover plate. Turn on unit and begin a water cycle to check for leaking at the water valve. If leaking occurs at the back panel of the steamer, turn off unit and repeat Step 5.

Check water supply lines.

Look at the water supply lines running from the ceiling to the steamer. There should be no kinks or bends in the lines.

To remove kinks, pull the water line straight.

Check water pressure.

Check the water pressure shown on the gauge on the water regulator. The gauge should show water pressure at 20 to 30 psi (1.4 to 2.1 bar).

If water pressure is below 20 psi (1.4 bar), lift knob on water regulator. Turn to the right. Push the knob back down

If water pressure is above 30 psi (2.1 bar), lift knob on water regulator. Turn to the left. Push the knob back down.

Check for water leaks.

Look for puddles of water on or near the steamer. Puddles can indicate a leak. Check the toaster table shelf, the water regulator, and where the supply line attaches to the water regulator.

A leak will cause a puddle of water near the steamer. Find where the puddle is.

If it is behind the steamer, check the connection between the water valve and tube.

If it is under the water regulator, check the o-ring on the connector.
