Installation
WARNING
Installer must be suitably qualified and ensure compliance with all local codes and standards including AS/NZS 3500.1.
Failure to comply even partially with installation instructions may void the warranty.
Positioning
Unpack machine, check for damage and complete delivery. Install machine on sound waterproof self-draining floor and use adjustable feet to level machine. Allow room for detergent to one side of machine or in adjacent cupboard. 20litre container requires about 450H x 250W x 350D, but smaller containers are available from many suppliers.
Benchwork
Refer Bench Details drawing.
For corner installations front of machine must face
to the left of the corner. In corner installations high or angled bench return off wall may clash with door handle. Level and secure machine and benches. Adjust to ensure smooth travel of rack through machine.
Hot Water
Water temperature 65°C ± 5°C Connection 20 mm (3/4” BSP) male Flow rate minimum 20 litres per minute Hot water consumption 3 litres per cycle approximately Backflow prevention Vacuum Breaker fitted standard Pressure 200-400 KPa = 30-60 Psi. Above this range fit pressure limiter. Don’t use small diameter plastic supply lines. FLUSH supply line before connection. Poor quality supply or excessive water hardness may affect performance or damage machine – filtration and/or softening is recommended.
Waste
40 mm gravity drain – refer point B on installation diagram – run waste directly behind the machine, through knockouts in side panels or through hole in base.
Power
Electrical supply required is single phase 230V 22A 50Hz, permanently wired via wall switch mounted adjacent to machine. Machine may also be installed on a 15A single phase circuit (with reduced rinse heating). For this requirement remove double adaptor and Red 0.75 wire from rinse over-temperature thermostat and reconnect Red 1.5 mm wire to the over-temperature thermostat.

Dishwashing Procedures for best results
Note: these are general instructions to assist in getting the best performance from Starline dishwashers – some comments and / or illustrations may not apply to every unit.
Installation
Read the Operator Manual. Correct installation, including an adequate supply of water at the correct temperature and pressure is essential for effective operation of your machine. Refer installation instructions for details. Drain hose outlet height is important on some models. Always install on a sound self-draining floor. Water softening is recommended in hard water areas - especially for glasswashing.
Pre-rinsing
Pre-scraping of dishes is required by hygiene regulations. The best method is to pre-rinse with a pre-rinse spray unit ­or alternatively by scraping or dunking in water.
Cutlery Procedures
Pre-soak cutlery in warm water, preferably containing cutlery pre-soak compound - refer your chemical supplier.
Do not overfill cutlery containers. Cutlery should be loose with handles down. Sort after washing rather than before. Cutlery of only one type nests together and obscures wash water.
Racking Procedures
Do not overload racks, minimize the overlap of crockery. Cycle times are short and water consumption per cycle low - so there is no advantage in overloading racks.
Cycle Times
For multi-cycle machine use the longest cycle whenever possible. Note that water consumption does not increase with longer cycles. Only choose shorter, faster cycles when necessary.
Detergent
Use of correct type and quantity of low foaming commercial grade detergent is essential to the performance of the machine. We strongly recommend that you use a professional dishmachine chemical supplier - and will be pleased to recommend a supplier in your region. Discuss with them the use of cutlery pre-soak solution, detergent and drying agent.
Operator Manual M1-3(S)
Dishwashing Procedures for best results
Drying
Single tank commercial dishwashers do not have a drying cycle. However, the machines do rinse at high temperatures which promote fast drying particularly when drying agents are used. We recommend prompt removal of the rack from the machine - leave the rack on the bench for 2 to 3 minutes before emptying. This time will be reduced with correct use of drying agent (rinse fluid) which reduces water surface tension and allows water to drain quickly from washware. For advice on drying agents and injectors refer to your chemical supplier.
Daily Cleaning
It is essential that the machine is drained and cleaned at the end of each day. Drain the machine then remove, clean and replace filters as per the operating instructions. Regularly check the wash and rinse jets and clean them if necessary – see below.
Regular Cleaning
Remove scrap trays1 and wash pump inlet filter2, where fitted, and rinse or brush clean.
Remove wash and rinse arms by undoing the central thumbscrews3. If necessary, remove the end cap screws4 from the wash arms and the end screws5 from the rinse arms and flush the arms with water and/or use a toothpick or paperclip to clear jets.
Note: arms and filters vary with model and may appear different from this illustration e.g. those models with plastic wash arms have removable jets for ease of cleaning.
Regular Servicing
Regular servicing of the dishwasher is absolutely essential to keep the machine in top working condition and obtain the best performance.
Please contact Washtech or your Authorised Service Provider to organize regular servicing of the dishwasher ­discuss a Preventative Maintenance Agreement for optimum performance and long machine life.
Note: these are general instructions to assist in getting the best performance from Starline dishwashers – some comments and / or illustrations may not apply to every unit.
