Toggle De-lime switch to the “De-lime” position.
Allow the machine to run for several minutes or until the interior lime build up
has been dissolved.
Flip De-lime switch to the “Normal” position.
Warning: Close the dishmachine door before activating the De-lime Switch. Skin
contact with de-liming solutions can cause severe irritation and possible burn. Always
wear protective clothing and goggles when handling chemicals. Contact your
chemical supplier for specific safety procedures for the use of de-liming solution.
3.2.1. Pre-Scrapping
It is essential that the operator thoroughly understand the importance of pre-scrapping the
glasses before loading them. The GL-X is equipped with a removable drain screen. The
drain screen can be easily removed for cleaning between Operational Cycles of the
dishmachine. Properly pre-scrapping the glasses should permit the glasswasher to
operate for an entire shift before needing to remove and clean the drain screen.
3.2.2. Proper Chemical Dosage
The amount of chemical delivered, whether it is detergent, sanitizer or rinse aid, is
determined by its respective cam on the cam timer.
Cam number 2 runs the detergent pump
Cam number 5 runs the sanitizer pump
Cam number 6 runs the rinse aid pump
These cams were set at the factory but must be adjusted after final installation to
maximize efficiency of chemical use (see section 4.1.1 Cam Adjustment.)
3.2.1. Proper Filling
The #4 cam must be adjusted properly to automatically dispense the correct amount of
water each cycle. When the #4 cam switch actuator rides down into the cam groove, the
water solenoid valve will activate to fill the machine. This cam only controls the duration
the water valve is activated dispensing water inside the wash tank (see section 4.1.1 Cam
Adjustment).The #4 cam is properly adjusted when the water level in the wash tank is at
the “Fill Line” located on the back wall of the wash tank. If water pressure fluctuates, install
a Pressure Regulator Valve (PRV) to maintain proper water levels between cycles. If
water level is too low wash pump will cavitate and become noisy and lose pressure to
wash arms.
Note: The tank must be properly filled, and the machine properly leveled, or the float
switch, which prevents the heater from turning on if the level is too low, will not permit the
heater to turn on.
3.2.2. Water Pump
The water pump takes in water from the drain sump and pumps it to the spray nozzles at a
rate of 35 gallons per minute and a pressure at the nozzles of approximately 7 to 10 PSI.
After being released through the spray arms and washing or rinsing the dishes, the water
runs down the pan to the sump, through drain screen, and back to the pump.
A 115-volt, 1 HP motor operating at 3450 RPM, drives the pump. The impeller is mounted
with a right-hand thread onto a 5/8” stainless steel shaft, which is coupled to the motor
armature shaft.
3.2.3. Pump Cavitation
By listening to the normal pumping sound of the motor it can be determined if there is
insufficient water in the machine, as you will hear a hesitation in the normal pumping
rhythm, which is created by the air getting into the pump. Cam 4 can be adjusted to
increase the amount of water that is automatically fed into the machine during a cycle (see
section 4.1.1 Cam Adjustment).
