Owners Manual
Connecting your new F-20
This dishwasher must be installed on a level, rigid, nonflammable surface. Ensure that the
machine is level by installing the feet (shipped in the wash tank of the machine) and adjusting the
leveling. Be sure to provide adequate space for water, drain and electrical connections.
**WATER SUPPLY:**
A 3/4” NPT fitting is required with 30 psi. dynamic pressure. A water
pressure regulator* may be required. The water pressure cannot be less
than 30 psi or exceed 30 psi. If the water pressure exceeds the prescribed
amount, you will get inconsistent washing temperature, premature parts
failure and thus may void the warranty.
Incoming water temperature must be 140º F (60º C). An easily accessible
shut-off valve is recommended, making installation, service and
maintenance easier. A flexible drain hose is provided to make installation,
servicing and maintenance easier.
Make sure that the water is free from calcium and hard water deposits. For these situations, an on-
line water cartridge system is highly recommended. Build-up of calcium and lime deposits in the
washer may occur and servicing will be required on a more frequent basis which will not be
covered by the warranty.
**DRAIN:**
This dishwasher has a gravity drain. Maximum height of the floor drain should not exceed
20" (50cm). A 1.5" ID flexible drain hose is recommended to facilitate maintenance and
servicing of the machine.
ELECTRICAL:
A 208-240 volt, 60 Hz, Single Phase circuit is required for this unit. Check the rating plate on the
machine for amp draw. In spite of the fact that the rating plate shows 208 volts, the unit is designed
function properly on 208 volts to 240 volts.
The top & back panels must be removed for the electrical hook
-up. The top panel is secured by Phillips head screws. Once the
screws removed, the panel should be slid to the back and lifted.
The back panel is also held by Phillips head screws. Remove
them, pull the bottom away from the machine and lift the panel.
The terminal block is located at the top of the machine and can
be accessed by removing the top and back panel. Pass the
cable through the cable strain relief at the back and connect
the wires to the terminals L1 (brown wire), L2 (blue wire) &
Ground (yellow & green wire). There should be sufficient cable
length to permit the machine to be pulled out for service.
DO NOT manually fill wash tank with water. The dishwasher will fill automatically when the power is turned ON.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Reasonable access to and around the machine for service must be provided.
Disconnecting of hard plumbing or removal of counter tops or cabinets, etc., for servicing
is not covered by warranty.
All panels must be replaced on the unit when the installation is completed.
