INSTALLATION

• THE INSTALLATION AND INITIAL OPERATIONAL CHECK OF YOUR NEW SYSTEM MUST BE PERFORMED ONLY BY LICENSED AND CERTIFIED PLUMBERS AND ELECTRICIANS.
• BE SURE TO FOLLOW ALL APPLICABLE NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES WHEN INSTALLING THE ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AND/OR A NEW CIRCUIT BREAKER. DO NOT CONNECT THE SYSTEM USING A POWER CORD AND PLUG OR AN EXTENSION CORD OF ANY KIND.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

• Please refer to the detailed installation instructions that were sent with your Power Prep system.
• The electrical requirements of your new system are on the serial number plate located on the end of the wash sink near the front, adjacent to the control panel enclosure. They are also shown inside the control panel enclosure itself.
• All Power Prep systems have a single point electrical connection, and a dedicated circuit is required.
• The system is completely pre-wired and tested at the factory, and a hard-wired connection from an appropriate power source is all that is required.
• The installer is to provide a NEMA 3X disconnect that should be incorporated in the fixed wiring.
• Properly sized watertight conduit, fittings and parts are required, as well as the appropriate gauge wire.
• If your system is a “left-to-right” unit, you should locate the disconnect at the left end of the system. (The opposite would be true for a “right-to-left” system.)
• Ideally, the disconnect should be located on the wall directly behind the pump motor and control panel provided this location is easily accessible by the operator and does not interfere with the faucet.
• Specific part numbers and parts information can be obtained from the factory by calling 888-994-7636.

PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
The Power Prep Unlimited unit will require the following plumbing connections:

•  3/4” (19mm) or 1/2” (12 mm) hot and cold water supply lines.
• Waste water connection (minimum 1 1/2” / 38mm).

LEVELING REQUIREMENTS
Your unit requires proper leveling to ensure proper operation, ease of disassembly/reassembly during cleaning, and proper drainage of sloped surfaces.

• Adjust leveling feet so the front and side rims are level and so that all leveling feet are bearing load.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

• BE SURE TO ADJUST KNOBS ON THE SPRAY RINSE AND ALL WATER FAUCETS SO THAT THE WATER TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 120°F (49°C). TEMPERATURES HIGHER THAN WHAT IS RECOMMENDED CAN CAUSE SCALDING IF CONTACT IS MADE WITH A PERSON’S SKIN.
• DO NOT PLACE KNIVES OR OTHER SHARP OBJECTS IN THE POWER PREP. ALLOWING KNIVES OR OTHER SHARP OBJECTS TO TUMBLE FREELY IN THE POWER PREP TANK MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT AND BODILY INJURY TO THE USER.
• KEEP FINGERS OUT OF PORTS.
• DO NOT USE ANY CLEANER THAT CONTAINS ANY SULFAMIC AGENT, OR ANY CHLORIDE, INCLUDING HYDROCHLORIC ACID (HCL) OR SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE.
• DO NOT USE ANY CHEMICALS LISTED AS AN OXIDIZER.
• TO CHECK FOR CHLORIDE CONTENT SEE THE SAFETY DATA SHEETS PROVIDED BY THE CLEANING AGENT MANUFACTURER.
• DO NOT USE ANY CLEANING AGENT THAT CONTAINS MORE THAN 30% PHOSPHORIC ACID.
• DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL POWER FROM THE UNIT BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO DISASSEMBLE AND CLEAN THE PIPING AND THE PUMP.
• EXERCISE EXTREME CARE WHEN HANDLING THE PIPING, CLAMPS AND PUMP COMPONENTS.
• HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE INSIDE. DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING. SERVICE BY TRAINED PERSONNEL ONLY.

PLACING THE WASH INSERT COMPONENTS
Begin by removing any debris left from previous batches of product. Disinfect all work surfaces according to the standard practices of your operation.

Rib Sets

• Once the system is clean, the wash sink components can be installed. Begin by installing intake guard in the front of the sink section.

• Next, place a front (smaller) rib set against one of the front corners of the sink.

• Place the other rear (larger) rib set against the back wall of the sink.

• Install the second front and rear rib sets.

• Leave a finger-size gap between rib sets.

Partitions
Next, place wash tank partition in the gaps between the front and rear pairs of rib sets. Make sure the partition goes all the way down and is not snagged on the ends of the rib sets.

Flow Guides

• Once the partition is in place, the flow guides can be installed. Start by positioning a notched end of the flow guide adjacent to the hooks of the front rib set.

• Begin bending the flow guide to the shape of the front rib set, and allow the notches of the flow guide to engage the hooks of the rear rib set.

• Continue to push the flow guide down against the rib sets until the notched end of the flow guide nearest you is adjacent to the hooks of the rear rib set.

• Repeat the process until both flow guides are in place. Lastly, set the wave guide in place over the rear rib sets.
• The wash sink components are now in place, and the Power Prep is ready for use.

FILLING THE POWER PREP

• Fill the sink until the water is approximately 1” above water level probe located at the rear wall of the wash tank, but no closer than four inches below the top.

• Press and hold the Green button to start the pump.

• When the pump is running, the water will become turbulent, and a strong back-to-front current will be established.

• Begin placing product in the Power Prep. Since there are two compartments, you may be tempted to place a different type of product in each one. DO NOT do so — you risk cross-mixing allergens between different types of product.

• After the necessary time for removing the ice covering, the product may be removed by inserting a collection basket. Holding the basket as shown, angle the basket so its leading edge is aligned with the flow in the sink.

• As you swing the basket into position, product will begin flowing into the basket.

• Lift the full basket out when ready. Always observe safe lifting procedures.

DEGLAZING AND WASHING TIPS
Be sure to follow safe food handling practices.
Conserve water by planning your product deglazing or washing. Deglazing example:

• Deglaze cooked items first.
• Deglaze shelled items.
• Deglaze raw items last.
• Water should be changed between cooked and raw product deglazing.
• Deglaze only one type of shellfish species at a time in the wash sink. DO NOT mix multiple species at the same time and in the same tank to prevent mixing of allergens.
• Wash more durable items like oranges and apples first, because those items are less likely to soil the water.
• Wash less durable items like lettuce and greens later because of their tendency release small leafy particles into the water.
• Wash items like potatoes and radishes last because of their tendency to carry more soil and other organic materials.
• Consider the possibility of certain foods imparting strong flavor, color or odor.
  • It might be better to wash cut cauliflower before washing blueberries to prevent staining and discoloration.
  • Wash onions, leeks, garlic or other strong flavored foods separately or last to prevent imparting taste or odor to other vegetables and fruit.
  • Consider washing strawberries or seeded items separately or last to prevent the embedding of seeds or discoloration.
• A little planning will reduce the number of washing solution changes resulting in saving time and money.

DRAINING THE WASH SINK

• When you have completed the deglazing, turn off the pump by pressing the red button.

• With the product deglazing finished and all product removed, open the drain to empty the tank by turning drain valve handle counter clockwise until handle is aligned in a vertical position.

• Rinse remaining particles to the drain and remove the strainer to discard the collected waste particles.
• Remove each Power Prep component (flow guides, partition, and rib sets) in the reverse order they were assembled. Wash each component to remove all traces of food debris. Position each component so that it dries quickly. Pay particular attention to the flow guides; provide airflow between each of them and do not stack them together wet.

• When finished, empty the contents of the filter into a suitable waste container, and wash out the strainer.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

• IF THE LIQUID LEVEL SENSOR IS NOT CLEANED REGULARLY, THE MACHINE MAY NOT OPERATE. IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE TO RUN THE PUMP WITHOUT WATER WHICH WILL CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE POWER PREP.RUNNING THE MACHINE WITHOUT WATER IN THE WASH TANK WILL CAUSE DAMAGE THAT IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
• IMPORTANT: TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE UNIT AT THE MAIN BREAKER PRIOR TO PERFORMING THE FOLLOWING TASK!
  Your system requires minimal, routine preventive maintenance. As such, the following should be done on a routine basis to ensure that your system remains reliable.

DAILY MAINTENANCE
Clean the liquid level sensor that is located on the rear wall of the wash tank. It is a white plastic disc with a metal center. Clean the sensor face thoroughly. If cleaned regularly, a washcloth and soapy water are all that is required.

MONTHLY MAINTENANCE

• About once per month, clean the pump motor fan shroud with a damp, soapy rag. The motor shroud is the “vented” cover located at the end of the motor (closest to the control panel). This will prevent grease and dust from accumulating in the cover’s openings, which can obstruct the airflow that cools the motor.
• You need not be concerned about greasing the motor bearings, as they are permanently sealed.
• There are no other preventive maintenance procedures that you will need to perform on your Power Prep system. If you have any questions regarding the preventive maintenance procedures, please contact the factory at 888-994-7636.
