2. Service/ Maintenance Space. Provide 

sufficient space to allow comfortable 

performance of service procedures and 

routine maintenance. This is especially 

important in connection with machines 

equipped with AC inverter drives. Consult 

installation instructions for specific details.

Replace all panels that are removed to 

perform service and maintenance 

procedures. Do  not 

operate the machine with 

missing guards or with 

broken or missing parts. 

Do not bypass any safety 

devices

Input and output 

services

1. Water pressure. Best performance will be 

realized if water is provided at a 

pressure of 30-85 psi (2.0-5.7 bar). 

Although the machine will function properly

at lower pressure, increased fill time will 

occur. Water pressure higher than 120 

psi (8.0 bar) may result in damage to 

machine plumbing. components failure (s)

and personal injuries.

2. Optional Steam heating pressure. Best 

performance will be realized if steam

pressure is provided at a pressure of 30-80 

psi (2.0-5.4 bar). Steam pressure 

higher than 125 psi (8.5 bar) may result in 

damage to steam components and 

may cause personal injuries. For machines 

equipped with optional steam heat,

install piping in accordance with approved 

commercial steam practices. Failure to

iinstall the supplied steam filter may void 

the warranty.

3. Drainage System. Provide drain lines or 

troughs large enough to accommodate 

the total quantity of water that could be 

dumped if all machines on the site

drained at the same time from the highest 

attainable level. If drain troughs are 

used, they should be covered to support 

light foot traffic

4. Power. For personal safety and for proper 

operation, the machine must be 

grounded in accordance with state and local 

codes. The ground connection must 

be to a proven earth ground, not to 

conduits or water pipes.   An easy-access 

disconnect  switch should be provided.

Ensure that a ground wire from a proven 

earth ground Is connected to the ground lug 

in the electrical junction box on this 

machine. Without proper grounding 

personal injury from electrical shock could 

occur and machine malfunctions may be 

evident. Computer-controlled machines 

must have a proper ground to prevent 

computer malfunctions.

Always disconnect power and water 

supplies before a service technician 

performs any service 

procedure. Where 

applicable, steam and/or 

compressed air supplies 

should also be 

disconnected before 

service is performed
