First Section -FOR THE USER
WORKING AND USE
The Pot-washing machines PT850Mand PT1500Mcan wash up to 30-20-10 baskets
every hour.
The machine protection degree is IP21, therefore it should not be washed with direct high
pressure jet water;
The objects to be washed should be correctly arranged for a good washing-up result;
We suggest to descale dishes, from time to time, in order to remove calcareous and/or
starchy sediments by soaking it in suitable solutions suggested by your cleansing agent
supplier.
OPERATION BEFORE WORKING
BEFORE STARTING THE WORKING
OPERATION BE SURE THAT:
-the wall-mounted on/off switch is
switched
on;
-the water and steam* cocks are
open;
-the filters and the overflow
are in
their housings;
-the wash arm and the rinse arm are
free to
pivot;
* for steam machines only
THEN PROCEED:
A -Turn the machine on by wall
switch and push the switch "A" to the
ON position (draw 1).
The green lamp "C" becomes lighted
and the machine loads automatically.
B -Lift the inspection doors.
Put the detergent directly into the tank,
by paying attention to distribute it
uniformly on the filters, the quantity
being according to supplier's
instructions.
N.B. When using chlorinated detergent,
it is suggested to use an automatic
dispenser; if otherwise, brownish spots
might appear on the surfaces, because
of chlorine reactions, if powering the
detergent directly in the tank.
C -Turn the machines on by wall switch
and push the switch “A” (Dis.1.).
At this moment the thermometer display
lights up
And the tank fills up. When the tank is full
the control lamp for cycle “2” lights up.
D –Introduce the basket in the ware-
washer.
N.B.: When the objects to be washed
present burnt crusts, or a long time is
elapsed from cooking up tothe time of
washing, it is necessary to make a
previous softening in water at 50°C, by
using an appropriate softening product.
The control lamp “E” will flash in case the
door of the dishwasher is open.
Before you start the cycle be sure that
the control lamp “D” is flashing. This
means that the water for the washing
cycle and the rinsing water

9
temperature reached the ideal
temperature for working.
E –Choose the washing period cycle
and push the button “B” between the
following items:
-lamp 1 flashing –short cycle of 3
minutes
-lamp 2 flashing –medium cycle 5
minutes
-lamps 1 and 2 lightening at the same
time
long cycle of 7 minutes.
The washing period cycle has to be
chosen regarding the dirt that has to be
removed.
F –Close the door of the ware-washer.
Push the button cycle “C”
The dishwasher starts the washing with
the period you chosen. Additional to this
period will be a pause of 5 seconds and
a rinsing period of 23 seconds with
clean water about 85° to 90°C.
The control cycle lamp is flashing up to
the end of the complete washing period.
Finished the washing period the control
lamps will stop lightening.
It is possible to interrupt the washing
cycle at any time simply pushing again
button “B”.
The lighting of the control lamp “D”
means that the water reached the
needed temperature of 85° to 90°C.
The rinsing will start working of by the
reached temperature need. That means
the period of the washing cycle you
chosed will be extended up to having
reached the exact temperature
(thermocontrol).
G -Take away the basket .
In order to make washing keep on,
load another basket and press
pushbutton "C". The cycle will
automatically start again.
-Endless cycle (maximum 15
minutes) : the door being closed and the
cycle put on (any cycle), keep the button
“B” pressed for 3 seconds: lamps 1 and
2 will flash at the same time
(thermocontrol excluded); the cycle can
be interrupted at any time pressing again
button “C” that will let final sequences
start.
-Self-washing cycle : Remove the
overflow from the tank and close the
warewasher door while the machine is on
(time 10 minutes).
DURING WASHING
1)When the machine is running
never change wash time selector
position.
2) Only use specific anti-frothing
detergents
3) Deactivate the equipment in case
of fault or malfunction. For repairs, only
address to a technical assistance center
authorised by the manufacturer and
impose the use of original spare parts.
If these conditions are not met, the
equipment safety could be jeopardised.
ACHIEVEMENTS
Any deficiency in the washing process
is apparent when dirty residuals are
visible. Any halos might be caused by
an insufficuent rinsing: in this case,
check that the rinsing jets are clean and
there is a sufficient pressure in the
water distribution network.
In the case that residuals are present,
check that:
• the washing jets are clean
• there is detergent
• the pump suction filter is clean
• the positions of the objects in the rack
are correct.

CLEANSING AGENTS
Choice of the suitable cleansing agent
is an essential condition if you want to
obtain extremely good washing results
as concerns hygienic results. It is then
important to consider some points. First
of all only highly alkaline and chlorine-
active antifoam products, especially
made for industrial dish-washing
machines, must be used and they must
be produced by well known reliable
Firms. Mean concentration of the
cleansing agents in powder must be
1,5-2,5 g/lt. Mean concentration of liquid
cleansing agents nust be 2-4 g/lt.
In order to avoid scales and corrosions,
put cleansing agent above water level
on the nearest area of the sucking
pump filter, in this way it will
immediately dilute and will not deposit
on the tank bottom.
DESCALING
When hard water is used you can find,
inside the machine and also on objects,
calcareous sediments which must be
removed both for hygienic and
operating reasons by a descaling
operation.
Operating process and frequency of this
intervention are suggested by your
cleansing agent supplier who has
suitable products, generally containing
phosphoric acid.
In order to avoid damage to the
machine do not increase the quantities
and once operations end rinse
abundantly.
SANIFICATION
At last each 30 days it would be useful
to do this operation which guarantees
the complete hygienic conditions of the
machine. We suggest to contact your
cleansing agent supplier who will give
you quantity and name of the most
suitable product you can use and that,
generally, is an active chloride powder
(100-200 ppm).
In order to avoid damage to the
machine do not increase the quantities
and once operations end, rinse
abundantly.
CLEANING AND PREVENTIVE
MAINTENANCE
PRECAUTION AND CLEANING
INSTRUCTIONS
-IMPORTANT : Before carrying-out
the cleaning and maintenance
operations, disconnect the

inside the machine (90°C). Affter
power supply has been removed,
wait until the machine has reached
the room temperature, before
working on it.
-the machine protection degree is
IP21, therefore it should not be
washed with direct high pressure
jets of water;
-never leave tools, parts or other
loose material on or in the machine;
-BEFORE starting machine or
cycle, after any maintenance or
repair work, make sure all
protective are correctly installed;
