Operation
CAUTION: BE SURE ALL OPERATORS READ, UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW THE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, CAUTIONS AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL.
A. Controls
The operator controls for the kettle are:
1. Main gas cock, which controls the supply of gas from the main to the unit.
2. ON/OFF (toggle) switch. This switch controls the supply of electrical power to the control circuits.
3. Thermostat dial, which turns the thermostat on or off and sets the operating temperature of the
kettle.
4. Reset button, used in lighting the pilot burner (on standing pilot model only).
Refer to the photograph in the "Equipment Description" section of this manual for the location of
controls and other features.
B. Operating Procedure
WARNING: KEEP AREA AROUND KETTLE FREE AND
CLEAR OF ALL COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS.
1. To Start Kettle
a. CHECK THE WATER LEVEL IN THE JACKET EVERY
DAY. The level must be between the lines on the
gauge glass. If the level is low, see "Jacket Filling" in
the "Preventive Maintenance" section of this manual.
b. While the kettle is cold, check the pressure gauge. If
the gauge does not show 20 or more inches of vacuum
(that is, a reading of 20 to 30 below 0), see "Jacket
Vacuum" in the "Preventive Maintenance" section of
this manual.
c. Make sure the strainer is covering the outlet to the
draw-off at the bottom of the kettle.
d. Set both the toggle (ON/OFF) switch and the
thermostat dial to "OFF".
e. If the unit has just been turned off, allow 5 minutes for
unburned gas to clear out, before you turn the kettle on
again.
f. Turn the gas cock ON (handle lined up with the gas
pipe), if it is not already on.
g. If you are using Model AH/1 E with electronic spark
ignition, or if you are using a Model AH/1 unit with the
pilot burner already lit, all you must do to start heating
the kettle is:
(1) Press the ON/OFF switch to "ON".
(2) Turn the thermostat dial to the desired setting.
h. If you must light the pilot burner in a Model AH/1, look
through the access hole in the cover of the control
housing to see which kind of pilot system is in your
unit. If there is a red reset button on top of the gas
control, you have a Basotrol pilot system. If you see an
"ON/PILOT/OFF" knob, you have a Honeywell pilot
system.
