Booster Heater Setup
The booster tank must be fi lled with water before the heating element is energized. For this reason, the
“High Limit Switch” has intentionally been disconnected at the factory and will require re-connection
before the heating element will turn on.
Follow the procedure below to complete the initial installation:
1. Close the door on the machine.
2. Turn the Power switch to the “ON” position.
3. Hold the “FILL” switch in until water overfl ows into the scrap tray.
4. Turn the Power switch to the “OFF” position.
5. Connect the blue wire with the disconnect, identifi ed by a red tag, to the High Limit Switch, which is
located behind the thermostat behind the front kick panel.
