MAINTENANCE
Draw-off
Va
lye Maintenance:
To
correct a leak at the
draw-off
valve. the
source
of the leak
must
first be determined.
Leaks
from around the
valve
stem are
corrected by simply
replacing
the
"0"
ring. Faulty seating
of
the
valve
stem
disc
against
the
valve body seat
may
cause
dripping
fromthevalveevenwhen
the
valve istightly closed. This
can
oftenbe corrected
by
cleaning
any
residue
from
the
disc
and
seat with
a piece of very fine emery cloth.
KETTLE VENTING INSTRUCTIONS

the
"vent air" zone. it
means
that air has
entered

reduces
kettle
efficiency
byslowing its heatingprocess. as
the
water
cannot boil whenairispresentinthe

To
remedy this situation. the following venting procedures should
be
followed:
1.
With
the
temperature control knob set at
number
6.
heat
the
empty kettle until the
vacuum/
pressure gauge indicates
5-10
psi.
2.
Release steam and air
from
the
steam/water
jacket
by
loosening.
one-half
turn, the
7/16"
chrome-plated

at
the rear
of
the
kettle) for 3-6 seconds.
3.
Tighten the vent valve nut. being careful not
to
overtighten.

The

be
applied
to
the

which
exposes
dangerous high voltage.
RESERVOIR FILL PROCEDURES
The
reservoir's water level
must
be
maintained at the proper level to
submerge
the heater elements.
Under
normal operating
conditions. the sealed water reservoir should
never
require
the
addition of water. Ifthe
red
"low
water" light
comes
on.
.ring use
(while
the
kettle is in an upright position). the
water
level
has
reached
a
critically
low
level.
The
low
water
protection
control has
automatically shut off the heater elements.
The
following
procedure
must
be
comj)leted before further use:
NOTE: Ensurethat thered
"low
water"light
is
on
when
the
kettleis upright.
On

as
the
elements
are
not submerged in
water
at this point.
1. Shut off power to the kettle at the fused
disconnect
switch.
2.
Remove the bottom cover. (Tining kettles
can
be
tilted forward for easier
access
to
the
cover. Tilt the
kettle
back
tothe uprightposition
once
the
cover
has
been removed.)
3.
Unscrew
andremove
the
chrome-plated
brass
vent-
ing valve nut located on
the
back
of the kettle.
4. Hold
the
safety valve
open
while adding distilled
water through the vent hole, using a funnel.
5.
Place
the
chrome-plated brassventing valve nutinto
the water fill hole and carefully tighten.
Do
not over-
tighlen. Replace the bottom cover.
6.
Restore power
to
the kettle at the fused
disconnect
switch.
7.
The kettle must
now
be
vented. Refer to
the
"Kettle
Venting Instructions".
CAUTION: Onlydistilled watershould
be
usedwhen
adding
water
to
a partially filted water
reservoir.
Local
tap water conditions
may
cause
kettle
damage
which
is not
covered under warranty.
