PG. 16
Establishing a routine cleaning and maintenance schedule will help keep the oven running at top
operating efficiency and is an absolutely essential part of a comprehensive sanitation program.
Good equipment maintained and kept clean works better and lasts longer. PROTECT
YOUR INVESTMENT.
Daily Oven Cleaning
To be performed at the end of each production day or between production shifts.
Daily Steam Generator Flush
When operating the oven on a regular basis, the steam generator must be flushed once a day. This
procedure will prevent lime deposits and scale build-up from forming in the steam generator.
Weekly Steam Generator Back-Flush
Back-flushing the oven on a weekly basis prevents lime deposits and scale build-up from forming in the
entire steam generating system. It will flush the areas missed with the daily steam generator flushing
procedure. This procedure should be followed once a week, in place of the daily steam generator flush.
Monthly Decalcification
It is VERY important to decalcify the oven , particularly in areas with extremely hard water. This
procedure should be followed once a month, in place of the daily steam generator flush.
Daily Gasket Cleaning
It is important to prolong the life of the oven gasket by cleaning this item on a daily
basis. Routine cleaning will help protect the composition of the gasket from
deterioration caused by acidic foods. Remove pull-out gasket and wash in hot soapy
water or in the dishwasher. Always replace the gasket before cleaning the oven
interior or operating the oven.
