GENERAL CONCEPT OF OPERATION
GENERAL CONCEPT OF OPERATION
Control Panel
1. The Savage Bros. Co. Table-Top Cooker is an
electric cooker/mixer. Safe operation of the
equipment is very important. Personnel that
will work in the area of the machine must become
familiar with the potential hazards.
2. The PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is used by
the machine for accurate cooking control. With a
single point of operation, both product and cooker
temperatures can be monitored and controlled
more accurately.
3. The optional “Data Logging” feature records a
variety of essential data during the cook
process including time, temperature, setpoint
and batch count.
4. An electric scraper agitator stirs the product. The
agitator is a rotating mechanical device. The
agitator will not automatically stop if a body
part, clothing or a rigid item gets caught in it. Keep
hands and body clear of the rotating agitator.
5. The standard 208-240VAC 50/60Hz unit has a 3,000
watt electric heating element and a 1/8HP agitator
motor with a gearbox designed for 150 inch-
pounds of torque at 28 RPM.
6. The cooker is a tilting cooker, encased in a stainless
steel cylinder. Within the cylinder is the electric
heating element formed to fit the cooker bottom.
A temperature sensor monitors the cooker skin
temperature.
7. The cooker and the product being cooked may
become very hot during operation. Although the
cooker surface is insulated, take precaution not to
allow bare skin to contact the cooker cylinder
surface. The FM-14 has a water-flush cooling
feature to control the cooking and speed up the
cooling process.
8. A second temperature sensor is mounted along the
agitator shaft and monitors the product
temperature while the product is cooking.

IMPORTANT SAFETY MEASURES
General
Moving any type of machinery presents a risk of injury. This cooker weighs approximately 150 lbs. (68 kg).
The FM-14 tilts and agitates, which means the operator(s) must be alert at all times. Anyone who will operate
the FM-14 must have training in its function and care.
1. It is strongly recommended that a qualified electrician perform all electrical work.
2. The machine requires a 208/240 volt, 50/60 Hz, 1 phase power source and a 20 amp fuse or circuit
breaker protecting the circuit.
3. Before working on the machine —installation and maintenance —ensure the machine is properly
locked out-tagged out.
Safety Rules
•Do not operate the FM-14 or other machinery if you:
oAre tired; or
oHave been drinking alcohol; or
oAre taking any medication that makes you drowsy or sleepy.
•When operating, inspecting or maintaining the FM-14, always follow all work shop rules, safety
regulations and precautions.
•Always pay attention to what you are doing and to other people in the area and surrounding conditions.
•Do not use the FM-14 for anything other than its intended purpose.
•Do not use broken tools or tools designed for another purpose for inspection or maintenance.
•SAFETY IS UP TO YOU.
IMPORTANT SAFETY MEASURES

•Modifications of any type to the FM-14 without specific written authorization from Savage Bros. Co. can
create unknown hazards and voids the warranty.
•Before making any modification, consult the manufacturer. Savage Bros. Co. will not be responsible for
any injury or damage caused by any unauthorized modification.
•Obstruction or limitation of movement and/or operator view can result if unauthorized equipment or
parts are added to the FM-14.

INITIAL INSTALLATION
1. The cooker weighs approximately 150 lbs. (68 kg). Therefore, when removing the cooker from the
shipping crate, lift up on the base or from below the cooker. Two or more people are required to lift
the cooker.
2. Place the machine on a solid, level surface. To ensure the cooker is level, place a level atop the
cooker. If the cooker is not level, the machine’s four feet (arrows) are individually adjustable and are
used to level the machine, Fig. 1.
3. To adjust the height of an individual leg, Fig. 2:
a. Using an open-end wrench, loosen the locknut (A).
b. Place a bubble level atop the cooker.
c. Insert an open-end wrench onto the wrench flats (B) of the leg.
Turn the wrench to increase or decrease the height of the
individual leg while observing the level.
d. Once the machine is level, remove the bubble level.
e. Using an open-end wrench, tighten the locknut (A).
f. It may be necessary to adjust two or more legs for the machine
to be perfectly level. Repeat steps a through e for other legs as
needed.

4. Ensure the red Emergency Stop (E-Stop), (arrow), Fig. 3,
located on the front of the machine, is pushed into the STOP
position.
5. The FM-14 has a water-flush cooling feature. Connect the
blue hose, which has a standard hose fitting on the open end,
to a cold-water source (Fig. 3.1) —a sink faucet is commonly
used. Having water flow through the system removes heat
from the cooker bottom, slowing the cooking process near
the end of the batch.
6. The metal braided hose, which has a standard hose fitting on
the open end, allows the water to drain from the machine.
Connect another hose to the metal braided output hose, then
route the hose assembly to a drain.
NOTE: The drain hose must remain open to the atmosphere to
avoid pressurizing the cooker. Do not restrict the drain hose in any
way, for example, by putting on an excessively long hose, a small
diameter hose, or routing the hose vertically, creating back pressure.

TURNING ON THE MACHINE
1. Insert the machine’s electrical plug into a Nema 6-20r electrical outlet.
2. The E-Stop Reset screen appears, Fig. 4, if the E-Stop button is depressed, Fig. 5. To advance to the
next screen, wait for ten seconds, which gives time for the VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) to
discharge, then pull out the E-Stop button (arrow), Fig. 5.
3. If this screen appears, after reading the WARNING, press
the Verify and Continue button, Fig. 6.
