INTRODUCTION
____________________________________________________________________________
TO THE KITCHEN MANAGER:
Read this manual carefully and in its entirety. Contact Market Forge Ind., Inc. for clarication
if necessary.
Protect your kitchen personnel from scalding and other serious injury by providing training
programs to acquaint all
equipment operators with the correct and safe methods of operation.
Operators must be made aware of the consequences of misuse. Steam producing equip-
ment, no matter who the
manufacturer, is inherently dangerous when misused. The possibility of serious scalding al-
ways exists, the careless and/or untrained operator will be injured.
This equipment must be maintained according to the guidelines in this manual (see “mainte-
nance”). Lack of maintenance
will lead to a potentially hazardous condition and possible liability. Operators should report
any equipment malfunction immediately and steps must be taken to correct the problem be-
fore further use of the equipment is allowed.
Keep this manual for daily reference.
INTRODUCTION:
Market Forge, in the interest of both cost and efciency has designed these steam boilers with
the latest automatic controls in order to make it easier for the operator to use and maintain this
equipment. Standard components are utilized on all models unless variances in size or capac-
ity dictate a divergence from this policy for more efciency of operation. This parts and service
manual is written and illustrated to cover all steam boiler equipment that uses gas as a source of
fuel other than those which have been custom designed under special order.
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL:
The pictures of components are aids to the identication, disassembly and assembly of parts.
The parts listing provides information necessary for the ordering of replacement parts (proper
part names and part numbers). When requesting parts or service; always furnish the model and
serial number of your complete unit, this will indicate to Market Forge Service Personnel the type
of boiler that you have. This information can be found on the nameplate attached to the boiler
frame.
THEORY OF OPERATION FOR ELECTRIC BOILER:
An explanation of how the control system operates on automatic electric boilers follows: With
the boiler lled with water to the proper level and the fuel switch is turned ON, the contactors will
pull in and permit the completion of the electric circuit to the heating element. When the boiler
builds to its set pressure, the pressure switch opens. This will open the circuit to the coil in the
contactor, which in turn will drop put the contacts in the contactor and shut off the electricity. As
the pressure in the boiler drops the pressure control switch will again complete the circuit and
build the boiler back to its set pressure. To stop all steam generation place the fuel switch to the
OFF position.

WARNING: READ THIS BEFORE OPEING THE SHIPPING CONTAINERS !!!!!!!!
CAUTION: BE SURE TO READ:
DO NOT AT ANY TIME LAY THE EQUIPMENT DOWN ON ITS BACK, SIDE, TOP OR FRONT.
Doing so may damage the equipment and invalidate the warranty.
RECEIVING INSTRUCTIONS:
Inspect the equipment before signing the bill of lading. The equipment supplied was tested and
inspected before shipment. The carrier accepted it as complete and without damage.
This merchandise became your property when it was accepted by the carrier at the factory. Mar-
ket Forge cannot assume responsibility for loss or damage during transit.
For this reason, you should immediately inspect for visible and concealed damage or shortages
before signing for shipment as follows:
Count the number of cartons and packages received to be sure they coincide with the bill of
lading.
Visually check all cartons for external damage.
Remove all cartons from their skids to examine equipment for concealed damage. The carton
is nailed and strapped to the skid. It will be necessary to cut the straps and pry off the con-
tainer.
After inspection, replace the cartons over the equipment on the skids to protect and secure
the equipment until it is ready for installation.
Sign for shipment if all is in order. Note shortages, external and concealed damage, if any, on
the bill of lading before accepting a partial or damaged shipment.
If necessary, contact the carrier immediately to le a claim. All claims must be led by the
receiver.
Do not remove the cartons or the skids from the cooking equipment until the unit has been
transported through the building to the actual set-up location. The cartons should remain on
the equipment as protection against dents and scratches.
INSTALLING LEGS:
Some models are shipped without legs. A separate carton will contain the legs. If your model
is received this way, be sure to follow the installation instruction sheet packed with the legs.
LEVELING:
In order for the boiler to drain correctly, it is important to use a level on cabinet top both left and
right and front-to-back. If not level, adjust feet. On compartment cookers, check the interior
shelves for level condition.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
____________________________________________________________________________
WARNING:
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE
CONNECT THE EXHAUST DRAIN LINE
DIRECTLY TO A SEWER LINE.
NOTES: If equipment is installed where elevation ex-
ceeds 2,000 feet (609.6 meters) above sea level, specify
installation altitude so that proper gas orices can be pro-
vided.
The only available space to supply utilities to the gas boiler
is the 6” (152mm) space between the oor and the cabi-
net. Allow 3” (76mm) space from side wall and 6” (152mm)
from real wall if adjoining walls are combustible.
CAUTION: Before connecting water to this unit, water
supply should be analyzed to make sure hardness is no
greater than 2.0 grains and pH level is within the range of
7.0-8.5. Water which fails to meet these standards should
be treated by installation of water conditioner. EQUIP-
MENT FAILURE CAUSED BY INADEQUATE WATER
QUALITY IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
DRAIN LINE INSTALLATION: The drain port of the unit
is marked with a colored tag and is located at the lower
rear left side of the boiler as viewed from the front. This
exhaust line may be left open if the boiler has to be situ-
ated in a tiled oor depression or a tiled curb section that
is equipped with drain facilities. If this is not the case,
then a 2” (51mm) NPT. drain line must be connected
to divert the exhaust to the oor drain. If it is necessary
to use more than three elbows, increase the size of the
waste line accordingly.
NOTE: PVC & CPVC PIPE ARE NOT
ACCEPTABLE MATERIALS FOR DRAINS.

A. IF GAS PRESSURE IS LOW:
Check your gas supply line for a restriction. If no restriction exists, check with your Natural
gas supplier to provide at least 5” of water column pressure in the gas supply line. If no
restriction exists and Propane gas is being used, the tank pressure regulator should be ad-
justed to supply at least 11” of water column pressure in the gas supply line. If this adjust-
ment cannot be made to your satisfaction, the gas supplier should be notied.
B. IF GAS PRESSURE IS TOO HIGH:
Adjust the pressure regulator on the boiler gas valve to reduce the pressure if Natural gas
is being used. If Propane gas is being used, adjust the pressure regulator supplied by the
gas supplier. If the regulator cannot be adjusted, notify the gas supplier.
ADJUSTMENTS

SETTING THE BOILER CONTROL PRESSURE SWITCHES:
PRESSURE CONTROL SWITCH ADJUSTMENT:
If boiler fails to maintain steam pressure in operating range, pressure control switch may require
adjustment.
Start boiler and allow pressure to build up to operating level - 7 PSI (1kg/cm²).
Check boiler pressure gauge. If gauge indicates 5 to 7 PSI, pressure control switches
are properly adjusted.
If boiler does not come on when pressure gauge reads 7 PSI and does not go off when
pressure gauge reads 7 PSI, proceed as follows:
WARNING: Because power must be on to adjust pressure switches, be sure to protect against
electrical shock.
Remove screw and lift front cover off control box.
Hand adjust operating pressure control switch and high limit pressure control switch by
turning adjusting nut (Knurled knob) clockwise to raise and counter clockwise to lower
actuation point. Switch should be set so that boiler comes on when boiler pressure
gauge reads 5 PSI and goes off when gauge reads 7 PSI. Switch should be set so that
boiler will shut off if pressure reaches 15 PSI.
The actuation value (differential) is factory set and cannot be changed.
The cold water condensor thermostat is preset at factory.
Repeat steps, 1, 2, and 3. If 5 to 7 PSI boiler pressure gauge reading is obtained dur-
ing boiler operation, adjustment is correct. If proper adjustment cannot be made con-
sult Trouble-Shooting Guide in this manual.
After making adjustments, replace cover on pressure switch box and screw.

STEAM GENERATOR
Market Forge Industries has two types of steam generators; one has an automatic drain; the
other a manual one. Automatic boilers are also capable of being drained manually. To determine
which one you have, refer to the daily operating instruction plate located behind the cabinet door,
which will identify the steam generator as being automatic or manual.
CLEANING GENERATOR
Market Forge Industries recommends that all generators be cleaned periodically due to the im-
purities which are introduced through the water supply. All water supplies contain some mineral
deposits and impurities, and the degree varies due to geographical location. Market Forge has
recommended a schedule of cleaning that should sufce to keep boilers in proper working order
where water supply is relatively pure. However, as no water supply in one area can be accurately
compared with that of another, this schedule should not be regarded as a fool proof formula to
prevent rust, scale, lime and foreign deposits from forming. A stepup of the recommended man-
ual cleaning schedule becomes necessary where introduced impurities exist.
MAJOR CLEANING
The cleaning schedule should be performed two or more times per year as determined by local
water conditions. Market Forge recommends that use of its Cathodic Descaler to protect the inner
generator walls and components against rust, scale and lime deposits. The schedule to change
the Cathodic Descaler may be timed to the major cleanings or accelerated where impurities
prove to be excessive. The normal effectiveness of the descaler is one year.
Qualied Market Forge Service Agencies are available to establish a suitable schedule for major
cleanings and / or Cathodic Descaler replacements. Should you prefer, however, to make these
cleanings yourself, the instructions that follow are meant to assist you. These instructions are
generalized to apply to all models.

MAINTENANCE
____________________________________________________________________________
Remove the access cover as follows: With a socket ratchet type wrench turn the 1 / 4 - 20
hex nut counterclockwise. Remove the access cover taking care while handling with the
heating elements attached.
Clean rust, scale and lime deposits from the inside of the generator with a wire brush.
DO NOT DAMAGE COPPER HEATING ELEMENTS - BRUSH LIGHTLY. WORK DEPOSITS
TO REAR CORNER AND REMOVE WITH PUTTY KNIFE.
When satised that the cleaning of the inside of the generator has been accomplished, ush
out with water. Introduce the water through the access cover and allow it to drain through the
open boiler drain valve.
Clean the access cover with the wire brush and wash. Make sure the areas that will contact
the gasket surface is well cleaned.
Remove old descaler. Install a new Market Forge Cathodic Descaler. (If old descaler cannot
be removed, see the following instructions a - f)
Select a place on the front of the access cover where the zinc anode may be installed without
interference, and should have atleast 1 / 2” of water over the top.
Drill and tap a 3 / 4” NPT (see Figure 1)
Clean the acccess cover area where the zinc anode will be in contact with the plate CLEAN
TO BARE METAL!
Install new 3 / 4” NPT Brass tting and zinc anode. (see Figure 1)
The zinc anode must be completely covered with water to a minimum depth of 1 / 2”.
Remove metal chips from generator after drilling and tapping.
Re - install the access cover using a new gasket and staggered tightening measures until
boiler is pressurized, then make your nal tightening.
Figure 1. Figure 2.
Clean the water gauge glass as follows:
Unscrew the two valve ttings from both valves until they will be free to slide up and down the
gauge glass. Grasp the water gauge glass and push downward toward the lower valve. This
action will compress the rubber washer at the lower valve and allow the water glass ample
clearance to be drawn free at the upper valve.
Slide off and discard the two rubber and brass washers and slip off the two valve ttings.
Clean the water gauge glass (A small bottle brush is ideal for this purpose).
Reinstall by reversing the above steps. Install new rubber and brass washers for best re-
sults.
Inspect probes for cleanliness (located at the top of the shell). If there is any build up on the
probes, you may experience false readings. To clean the probes you may use some steel
wool to remove deposits. After assuring that the probe assembly is clean, you may fasten the
plate back into position. Your boiler is now ready for use!

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR TOTAL CONCEPT CLEANING OF BOILER
SIZE: 1 Gallon PART NUMBER: 20 - 0307
GENERAL NOTES:
Market Forge R has two basic types of boilers; one
has an automatic drain valve, the other has a man-
ual drain valve. To determine which type you have,
open cabinet doors and you will see a control box
with two switches and an indicator light. The instruc-
tion label on the control box will identify the boiler
as being either automatic or manual. Those boilers
designated as being automatic must be energized
in order to close the drain valve.
Total Concept is designed to be used with water be-
tween 160°F to 200°F.
Preheating is required on both automatic and man-
ual boilers to raise the water temperature to the ac-
ceptable range. (160°F to 200°F).
For manual boilers, make certain drain valve is
tightly closed.
On Market Forged boilers manufactured after 8/84;
your unit is equipped with an access plug in the
steam header line. This location should be used
to add cleaner/descaler to boiler chamber during
maintenance.
On Market Forged boilers manufactured before
8/84; access to boiler chamber should be gained
through either the vent-rite or the pressure relief
valve.
Total Concept is a NSF listed nonfood product. This
is a liquid acid (nonmuriatic) product that works
without fumes, odors, and hazards associated with
other harsh chemicals.
