Operating the Power Soak
Starting and Stopping the Wash Action
To start the wash action, press and release the green “START” button. A
strong “rolling” action should become present in the wash tank. When the
wash cycle is started the green STATUS light will change from flashing to
solid. When the STATUS light is solid, the wash fluid timer is timing down
to the next wash fluid change.
To pause the wash action, press the red “STOP/IDLE” button. This puts
the machine into an idle mode that stops the wash pump but continues the
wash timer. Some UPM program settings will automatically start the wash
pump and resume the wash action after a short period of time. For this
type of operation, the wash action cannot be completely stopped without
draining the wash tank. When the machine is in idle mode, the small
indicator light beside the Unload/Load button will be flashing. It will flash
faster and faster until the unit auto restarts.
Pressing and holding the START button for more than 8 seconds will start
the DEEP CLEANING CYCLE (see page 17). Note: if the START button is
held for more than 3 second, but less than 8 seconds, the wash motor will
not start. The button must be pressed again for less than 3 seconds to
start the Normal Wash or more than 8 seconds to start the Deep Clean
Mode.
Introducing Pots and Pans to the Power Soak
Dirty pots and pans should be brought to the Power Soak in a timely
manner. Do not allow items to sit and air dry. The quicker that items are
brought to the Power Soak, rinsed and put in the wash tank, the easier
they are to clean!
Properly Scrapping Pots and Pans
Excess soils should be removed from the pots and pans prior to dropping
them in the wash tank in order to reduce the amount of debris circulating in
the wash tank. Deposit the excess soils into a garbage can. Some
machines may have an optional pre-scrapping area with a pre-rinse spray;
soils may be deposited into the scrapper tray. Empty the scrap collection
tray regularly.
Loading and Using the Wash Tank
The Power Soak is a “random loading” machine. This means that Power
Soak items are not racked for washing. Instead, they are randomly loaded
one at a time and circulate in the wash tank. When items are brought to
