VISUAL INSPECTION: Before installing the unit, check the container and machine for damage. A damaged container is an indicator
that there may be some damage to the machine. If there is damage to both the container and machine, do not throw away the con-
tainer. The dishmachine has been inspected and packed at the factory and is expected to arrive to you in new, undamaged condition.
However, rough handling by carriers or others may result in there being damage to the unit while in transit. If such a situation occurs,
do not return the unit to Jackson; instead, contact the carrier and ask them to send a representative to the site to inspect the damage
to the unit and to complete an inspection report. You must contact the carrier within 48 hours of receiving the machine. Also, contact
the dealer through which you purchased the unit.
UNPACKING THE DISHMACHINE: Once the machine has been removed from the container, ensure that there are no missing parts
from the machine. This may not be obvious at first. If it is discovered that an item is missing, contact Jackson immediately to have the
missing item shipped to you.
LEVEL THE DISHMACHINE: The dishmachine is designed to operate while being level. This is important to prevent any damage to
the machine during operation and to ensure the best results when washing ware. The unit comes with adjustable bullet feet, which can
be turned using a pair of channel locks or by hand if the unit can be raised safely. Ensure that the unit is level from side to side and
from front to back before making any connections.
INSTALLING THE DISHMACHINE: With the machine base set in place, lift the table (with proper flange cutout) over and above
machine so that vertical flange on table cutout fits down inside of machine tub and horizontal flange on machine tub fits up tight against
underside of the table.
Ease vacuum breaker piping supplied with the dishmachine down through the square cutout in the backsplash of the table (directly
behind the machine). Connect vacuum breaker piping to machine. The top union connects to its matching half on the bottom of the
rinse booster tank. The bottom union of the piping connects to an adapter pipe which, in turn connects to the solenoid valve. The arrows
on the solenoid valve indicate the direction of water flow to the machine. Tighten both of the connections.
Adjust machine base until small hole (1 7/8” diameter) behind large flange hole, lines up with hole in support block of machine. Insert
internal vacuum breaker pipe into support block with large end down and pinned end up. It should set in snug, the retaining ring will
prevent it from being inserted too far.
WARNING: Internal vacuum breaker pipe must be installed or there will be a hazard to the operator.
Make sure there are two “O-rings” on the lower support pipe near the end of the ring. Lift the hood and hood support pipe up over table
and machine to clear the internal vacuum breaker pipe. Slide hood support pipe down over internal pipe and work support pipe down
into support block hole. The locating pin in the support block will insure proper line up. While holding the support pipe, start tightening
nut by hand to prevent cross threading. It should tighten considerable by hand. Then continue tightening with a wrench. It may be nec-
essary to work support pipe back and forth to seat nut properly. When the nut is tight, it should force flat the stainless steel and rubber
washers tight to the table top.
Attach vacuum breaker support pipe clamp (supplied with dishmachine) to the support pipe and external vacuum breaker piping. Slide
up about 12” from the table and tighten securely. Position cover plate (supplied with table) over square cutout in backsplash on table
so that it fits tightly around piping then snap in the four nylon fasteners (supplied) to hold in place.
Rotate the hood to insure it is free, if not, check level of machine, tightness of table to machine flange, centering of machine, level of
table and hood support pipe.
PLUMBING THE DISHMACHINE: All plumbing connections must comply with all applicable local, state, and national plumbing codes.
The plumber is responsible for ensuring that the incoming water line is thoroughly flushed prior to connecting it to any component of
the dishmachine. It is necessary to remove all foreign debris from the water line that may potentially get trapped in the valves or cause
an obstruction. Any valves that are fouled as a result of foreign matter left in the water line, and any expenses resulting from this foul-
ing, are not the responsibility of the manufacturer.
CONNECTING THE DRAIN LINE: The drain for the dishmachine is a gravity discharge drain. Remove the overflow strainer stopper
from the tub and the unit will drain itself. There must also be an air gap between the machine drain line and the floor sink or drain. If a
grease trap is required by code, it should have a flow capacity of 5 gallons per minute.
