-
Install machine on sound waterproof self-draining floor and use adjustable feet to level machine.
NOTE: Failure to level the machine correctly may result in leaking during the cycle, overflowing from the door sill, poor hygiene through the wash tank not being able to drain correctly, and/or visibly uneven door. -
Allow room for detergent to one side of machine or in adjacent cupboard. 20 litre container requires approximately 450H x 250W x 350D, but smaller containers are available from many suppliers.
Ventilation
- 15 m³/min = 250 l/sec refer installation diagram extraction via connected ducts or overhead canopy.
Inlet Water Operation
Incoming water should be within the following standard requirements:
-
Temperature: 65 °C.
-
Connection: 20 mm (3/4″ BSP) male.
NOTE: Flush supply line before connection. Poor quality supply or excessive water hardness may affect performance or damage machine filtration and/or softening is recommended. -
Flow rate: minimum 20 litres per minute.
-
Water Consumption: 5 litres per minute.
-
Pressure: between 200 and 350 kPa.
NOTE : This machine is not equipped with a rinse booster pump as standard and does rely on incoming water pressure to drive the rinse cycle.
NOTE: If above 350 kPa fit pressure limiter valve (LPV). Do not use small diameter plastic supply lines. -
Backflow prevention: Dual Check Valve (DCV) fitted standard.
Water Quality Requirements
The incoming water should also be within the following parameters:
Hardness | ppm | pH | |
---|---|---|---|
min | 20 | 7 | |
max | 100 | 8 | |
Ions | Cl- | SO4 | Fe |
--- | --- | --- | --- |
Max mg/L | 100 | 400 | 0.1 |
NOTE: Levels above or below the stated requirements can be expected to increase component wear and reduce the expected useful life of the dishwasher. If in doubt, it is best to consult a water specialist and have the incoming water professionally tested and treated if necessary.
Power
- Electrical supply required is 3p/25A 415V 50Hz via switched outlet adjacent to machine.
NOTE: Equipment contains dangerous voltages and can be hazardous if installed or operated incorrectly. Non compliance with warnings or failure to follow the instructions contained in this manual can result in loss of life, severe personal injury or serious damage to property.
Chemical
- Detergent and rinse aid pumps are not supplied with the CD100. We recommend you consult your chemical supplier and/or a local chemical expert for their recommended detergent and Rinse Fluid injector pumps.
NOTE: Commercial detergents can be hazardous read instructions, store safely and handle with care. Care needs to be taken when changing chemicals, ensuring that the detergent is not accidentally connected to the rinse fluid inlet line.
NOTE: If uncertain, please consult a chemical specialist for assistance in selecting the right chemicals and calibrating machine settings to suit this along with your unique site conditions and requirements.
Waste
- 40mm connection required to point B as specified on install diagram. An S-trap must be fitted on each of these points.
NOTE: Either copper or P.V.C. may be used for the waste connection P.V.C. is more resistant to some harsh detergents. Some authorities however suggest that copper is required because the machine rinses at up to 90°C. It is important to note that rinse water mixes with the 65°C wash water before discharge and then flows into the sink trap where the water is further cooled before entering the drainage plumbing. We recommend consulting your local authority to ensure your site remains compliant.

Installation Troubleshooting
Machine not starting or filling
- Ensure water supply to machine is turned on.
- Ensure power supply to machine is turned on.
- Check that the water inlet hose isn’t twisted or kinked.
Poor wash results
- Check that there are adequate pre-rinse processes in place.
- Ensure high quality non-foaming commercial dishwasher detergent has been connected at the correct dosage for your site, water quality and application. If uncertain, consult a chemical specialist.
- Ensure that the wash temperature is between 60°C and 65°C.
Chemical residue on items after the cycle
- Check water pressure, this is likely too low and below the minimum 200kPa required.
- Check that nothing is obstructing the wash & rinse arms.
- Check the rinse fluid dosage is not too high. If uncertain, please consult a chemical specialist.
Dishwasher is foaming
- Ensure high quality non-foaming commercial dishwasher detergent has been connected at the correct dosage for your site and application. If uncertain, please consult a chemical specialist.
- Allow wash water to heat to at least 60 ºC prior to starting the first cycle as some commercial dishwasher chemical will foam at low temperatures.
- Low water pressure can result in above average detergent concentrations. As low water pressure also impacts rinse results, we recommended this is solved by installing a rinse pump rather than compensating by reducing chemical dosages.
Other equipment in the kitchen has needed filters or has scale
- Due to the high temperatures in dishwashers, scale will build up in the wash tank, on the arms and in the rinse tank. The incoming water should be treated. If uncertain, please consult a water specialist.
- As with the Combi-Oven, high chloride levels will do irreversible damage to a number of the components inside a commercial dishwasher. The incoming water should be appropriately treated. If uncertain, please consult a water specialist.
Pawl drive not operating
- Clear the area around the limit switch on the roller table.
- Adjust the clutch tension of the Pawl Drive motor, the Pawl drive clutch tension can be tightened by turning the 2 nuts at the bottom of the pawl drive shaft clockwise or loosened by turning the 2 nuts anticlockwise. (Note: the tension must be at a level where a person can grab the pawl drive with both hands and stop the pawl drive motion).
Grinding noise escaping from the machine
- Wash pump rotation must be checked after installation to ensure correct direction (excessive noise and damage with incorrect direction).
Machine stops and refills during the commissioning stage
- Fit the curtains according to the Operator Care curtain diagram (page 14).
- Ensure the Scrap Trays are fitted in the Wash and Rinse Zones.
Operator Use Guide

Chemical: Use a good quality non foaming commercial detergent and drying agent
do not use domestic detergents which will cause the machine to foam.
Operator Care – Curtains
CD100 Curtains
- Part #: CD 100 L Curtains
- Date: 05/02/2021
- Version: 1-A
Types Of Curtains
- Long anti splash curtain 600 x 475 (Part number: 840 90011).
- Medium anti splash curtain 600 x 230 (Part number: 840 90012).
The Purpose of Curtains:
- To keep the heat inside the zones of the machine.
- To stop water splashing from one zone to another. This prevents wash and rinse water mixing. If this happens the water quality will be reduced.
- Curtains must be placed in their correct positions to work properly. They must also be the correct way around.
- Broken curtains need to be replaced promptly.
Weekly Cleaning
- Remove curtains from hooks.
- Place each curtain into a dishrack and wash through the machine.
Operator Troubleshooting
Likely cause
Possible cause
- For issues most likely due to incorrect chemical dosages or other chemical issues, we recommend you consult your chemical supplier and/or a local chemical expert prior to calling in a dishwasher technician.
** For issues that are likely due to poor water quality (scale building up, filters being required on other kitchen equipment etc.), we recommend you consult a local water specialist prior to calling in a dishwasher technician.
