Maintenance and Cleaning

Schedule a thorough, regular cleaning and parts inspection of doors, gaskets, spigots, latches and hinges. Check to make sure they are in good working condition or replace if  necessary.
(A) Cleaning Instructions

  • Remove and clean lids, vent caps, gaskets, and spigots. To clean gaskets, place in a container or sink of hot, soapy water, wipe off with a soft cloth or brush, rinse with hot water, and dry with soft, dry cloth.

  • Where possible, remove doors and clean around hinges and/or pins.

  • Using a soft cloth or brush and a mild commercial cleaning detergent, clean the outside and inside, paying close attention to handles, latches, hinges and vent caps. Sanitizing
    solutions are recommended. Do not use any cleaners containing ammonia or bleach. Do not use steel wool or abrasive pads or brushes.

  • Rinse with clean hot water at 70ºF (21,1°C) or hotter.

  • Air dry whenever possible or wipe thoroughly with a dry, clean, soft cloth to remove all moisture inside and out.

  • Store with lids and doors slightly open.

(B) Removing Lingering Scents and Stains

  • Use an odor-removing soak or sanitizer to remove scents and stains that can occur from holding coffee and/or foods with strong odors.
  • A diluted solution of 2–3 tablespoons of baking soda per gallon of hot tap water or 1 part lemon juice or vinegar to 4 parts hot water is also an effective way to remove lingering odors.
  • Rinse thoroughly with hot water and dry.

(C) Usage Tips and Precautions
Pre-heating or pre-chilling your transporter before loading is recommended for best results and to extend holding time.
To preheat, slide a hot Cambro Camwarmer ® onto the bottom rails or place a full-sized, uncovered pan of hot water onto the bottom rails. Close the door for 15–30 minutes. Fill beverage servers with hot water, cover them, and latch the lid for 15-30 minutes.
To pre-chill, slide frozen Cambro Camchiller(s) ® onto the top rails or slide a full-sized, uncovered pan of ice water onto the top rails. Close the door for 15–30 minutes. Another effective method is to place transporters in cooler or freezer overnight with doors open or lids off. Fill beverage servers with ice water, cover, and latch lid for 15-30minutes.
To help protect your Cambro insulated transporter, reduce the risk of employee injuries, and eliminate unnecessary food waste:

  • Do not use any type of canned/portable cooking fuel inside a Cambro transporter.
  • Always cool metal pans or sheet pans for 30–60 seconds to 250ºF (121ºC) before placing them into the Cambro transporter or on any transporter surface.
  • Boiling liquid 190ºF (88ºC) or hotter should not be poured directly into a Cambro transporter.
  • Do not place the product against any direct heat source such as a hot oven or grill.

(D) Caster Maintenance (for Camcarts®and Wheeled Camcarriers®)
Caster maintenance should be performed each time your transporter has been washed or steam-cleaned.

  1. Grease the swivel raceway of the caster using a lubricant such as Lubriplate #930-AA, Keystone #84EPXLT multi-purpose grease or equivalent. Apply grease using a grease gun with a needle nose adapter or a tube-type applicator such as Sta-lube Moly-graph Assembly Lube. These can be obtained at most auto parts stores.
  2. Use a light oil such as WD-40 on the hub. Check the caster for damage and test the caster spin and swivel rotation before returning to service.
