WARNING
Do not use any highly caustic cleaners, acids or ammonia. These may cause corrosion and/or damage
to the stainless steel well. Do not allow water to stand in the well for long periods of time. Water must
be removed from the well and the well cleaned after each use.
CLEANING PROCEDURES FOR
POLYETHYLENE OR ABS (RUBBER) COMPOSITION TABLE TOPS
OR CUTTING BOARDS
When high pressure cleaning equipment is not available; use hot water, a granular cleanser or detergent and a
stiff bristle brush. (Abrasive action is necessary, as simply wiping the board will not suffice.) After scrubbing,
rinse thoroughly with hot water. Allow to lie flat.
Several excellent germicidal cleaners are also available, including Calgon's "Big Cat" and Johnson's
"Break Up". Clorox is another good cleaner and is USDA approved.
The tabletop material is cut into sections not larger than 36" in any plane, and no section weighs more than fifty
(50) pounds. These are stipulations of the National Sanitation Foundation to facilitate cleaning.
The tops should be turned over daily to reduce possibility of warping and should never be stood on end.
Periodically, go over the board with a clean, flat stainless steel scraper to help seal some of the knife marks.
The use of cleavers on synthetic boards or tabletops is not recommended.
10) TROUBLESHOOTING
Always ask and check the following:
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
1. Problem: Unit does not heat:
a. Has unit been connected to a proper gas source of the proper type?
b. Is the gas turned on at the main? Check the shut off valve.
c. Are the control knobs set to the "ON" position?
d. Is the unit lit?
2. Problem: Unit does not maintain proper food temperature.
a. Are the controls set to the proper setting?
b. If used with water, was hot water used to fill well? If not, allow extra pre-heat time.
c. Has unit been pre-heated for 30-45 minutes?
d. Were pans of food placed into unit at or above desired temperature?
e. Has the food been kept covered?
f. Are there air conditioning ducts, take-up air ducts or fans located near or over unit, causing cool
drafts?
g. Has unit been connected to a proper gas source of the gas type? If so, is there a "low" pressure
condition?
11) PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Please follow the cleaning section for the daily and weekly preventative maintenance schedule.
1 Use the proper tools.
When cleaning stainless steel products, use non-abrasive tools. Soft cloths and plastic scouring
pads will not harm steel’s passive layer. Stainless steel pads also can be used but the scrubbing
motion must be in the direction of the manufacturers’ polishing marks.
