PIPING ASSEMBLY (continued)
Cleveland Range equipment requires little preventative maintenance. We do however provide the following
chart as a guideline for inspection and maintenance to keep your unit functioning at 100%.
WARNING: It is imperative that damaged seals be repaired immediately to prevent equipment failure
and/or damage.
ITEM CHECK
SIDE Console seal Insure there are six screws firmly holding down the cover. If not replace
screws and/or missing or worn nylon anchor nuts.
Bottom Cover Gasket Check to see it is in place and is not cracked or split.
Tilt Handle Check handle for tightness. If loose apply lock tight and reinstall.
Check handle knob is on end of handle and firmly tightened. If loose
apply lock tight and reinstall.
Pressure Gauge Check that the gauge does not have moisture on its inside face.
Replace if moisture is present.
Check that the gauge shows a vacuum (needle is well into the Green
zone) when cold and shows between 25-40 psi when unit is hot. If not
follow Vacuum Leak Test.
Pressure Relief Valve Check pressure relief valve as described in Pressure Relief Valve
Periodic Testing Procedure.
Temperature Check Following Calibrating Procedure check the inner kettle surface
temperature with a digital surface thermometer and adjust if required.
CALIBRATING PROCEDURE WARNING: Kettle surface will be hot and steam will be
released during testing. Take necessary precautions
1. Insure the unit has a vacuum before you begin including the use of gloves and eye protection to
calibrating procedures. If unit requires venting refer prevent personal injury.
