Polish Free Chemicals
WARNING
If you use different chemicals, you will have to carefully recalibrate the chemical
injection levels to compensate for the different formulations and concentrations.
Without recalibration polish free results will be negatively impacted.
WARNING
Before installation and commissioning, you must read the safety instructions
and warnings carefully and all the warning labels attached to the equipment.
IMPORTANT
Failure to comply (even partially) with the instructions given in this manual
will invalidate the product warranty and relieves the manufacturer of any

NOTE
Polish free results are dependant on using the right concentrations of the right
chemicals. An RO system is inclusive of your glasswasher, RO unit, chemicals,
operating procedures and drying area. If one of these components is altered without
recalibration of the system, inferior polish free results can be expected.
WARNING
Before installation and commissioning, you must read the safety instructions
and warnings carefully and all the warning labels attached to the equipment.

Optimizing Polish Free Results
APPROPRIATE RACKS
ADEQUATE DRYING TIME
Glasses must be given the appropriate space
and time to dry. If space and time is an issue we
recommend using a drying table.
Drying tables facilitate fast drying and cooling of
glasses following the washing process.
Features & Benefits
• Drying tables reduce the drying time
• Drying tables speed up the turnaround time
of glasses whilst delivering them in perfect
condition for dispense
• The use of wet, warm glasses will impair the
presentation of the glass.
ATE LI ER R AOS
The rack design ensures water circulates efficiently over and
around the items in the rack, significantly improving washing
results. The sides are high enough to keep all items safely inside
the rack during the wash cycle.
External dimensions: 500 x 500 x 174 mm
Internal dimensions: 460 x 460 x 150 mm
Stacked height of 2 R500s: 305 mm

Thanks to a range of optional and movable inserts, you can
rearrange the internal configuration of the rack as often as you
wish to meet your various warewashing needs, making this the
ideal unit for pubs, bars, cafes and restaurants.
Glasrelax GR500
The Glasrelax insert is designed to safely hold glasses in an inclined
position. This helps to reduce breakages, and also improves water
flow. Up to 5 Glasr
elax inserts can be placed in the rack.
Cutlery holder CBS
With pyramid-shaped base to improve water flow.
External dimensions: 105 x 105 x 140 mm
Plate insert PI 400
This insert for washing plates can hold 9 plates, each measuring up
to 240 mm.
Plate rack P 18 – 12
The plate rack P 18 – 12, external dimensions 500 x 500 x 100 mm
is the ideal addition if plates are to be washed. It holds 18 flat or

NEW
Concaved bases of glassware allow chemical saturated water to pool and not drain off of the
glasses while in the machine. Once removed from the machine, if the water is allowed to run
down the side of the glassware and dry, this can stain the glasses.
We recommend using Tilt racks with our RO systems. Tilt racks enhance the cleaning result by
allowing all water to drain off the glassware.
CLEAN MACHINE
Carry out proper shut down and cleaning procedures
every night to ensure optimum performance of your
Starline glasswasher.
If arm (6) jets and filters (1, 2 & 3) are not adequately
cleaned blockages can form, impeding water flow. This
will result in a reduction in spray area, which will effect the
amount of water and chemical dispersed over each glass.
Cleaning instructions are provided with each Starline
glasswasher. If you however require copies of these
instructions please contact your local Starline dealer.
Talk to a Starline dealer about tilt rack and drying tables.

9 ROS - Operator Manual 170719
This filtration unit uses one sediment filter cartridge, one carbon filter cartridge, and two
reverse osmosis membrane cartridges.
It is recommended that the sediment cartridge be checked every 3 months and that spare
cartridges are kept available for prompt replacement when showing signs of wear. The lifetime
of the cartridge will vary according to the quality of the water source and the number of cycles
performed per day. Replacing the cheaper sediment and carbon filters more frequently will
help protect and extend the life of the more expensive RO membranes.
If the cartridges are not regularly replaced they will become blocked and the water flow will
diminish to the extant that it will effect the efficient operation of the glasswasher.
If the cartridges become blocked up and there are no spare cartridges available, the bypass
valves on the unit may be operated and the glasswasher will run on untreated water until new
cartridges are fitted.
Maintenance
WARNING
Turn off power and unplug machine from mains power supply before replacing water
filtration carridges
