OM-DEE/4 5
The DEE/4 is a floor-mounted, tilting, steam jacketed kettle with a thermostatically
controlled, self-contained, electrically-heated steam supply and appropriate controls,
mounted on a sturdy base. The kettle is available in 20, 40 or 60 gallon capacities.
The body of the kettle is constructed of stainless steel, welded into one solid piece.
The kettle is furnished with a reinforced rim and a butterfly shaped pouring lip. It has a
steam jacket rated for working pressures up to 50 PSI. Kettle finish is 180 emery grit
on the inside and bright semi-deluxe on the outside.
The kettle can be tilted with a hand crank to pour out its contents. Stainless steel
panels enclose the controls and the base. Four stainless steel, tubular legs support the
unit. Bullet feet on each of the legs can be adjusted to level the kettle.
A built-in steam generator, sized for the kettle capacity and heated by electricity,
delivers steam into the jacket. “Airless” operation of the steam jacket permits uniform,
efficient heating at temperatures as low as 150°F and as high as 298°F. In addition to
the adjustable thermostat for operating control, the unit has a tilt cut-off switch, low
water cut-off, safety valve, and high limit pressure switch as safety features. A heating
indicator light, pressure gauge, and sight glass are provided for monitoring kettle
operation.
A single electrical connection is required for installation. The unit may be ordered
for use with 208/240, 400 or 480 volt power. All kettles are wired for three-phase
operation. Single-phase units are also available.

Initial Start-Up
IMPORTANT
BE SURE ALL OPERATORS READ,
UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW THE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, CAUTIONS
AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED
IN THIS MANUAL.
WARNING
AVOID ALL DIRECT CONTACT WITH HOT
SURFACES. DIRECT SKIN CONTACT COULD
RESULT IN SEVERE BURNS.
AVOID ALL DIRECT CONTACT WITH HOT
FOOD OR WATER IN THE KETTLE. DIRECT
CONTACT COULD RESULT IN SEVERE BURNS.
PROPER
WATER LEVEL
Each day, confirm the jacket water
level by checking the water gauge.

OM-DEE/4 9
Operation
The operator controls kettle heating with the thermostat dial. The dial turns heating
element power on or off and sets the kettle operating temperature.
A. To Start Kettle
1. EVERY DAY make sure that the jacket water level is between the
markers on the gauge glass. If the level is too low, see “Jacket Filling
and Water Treatment” on page 14.
2. Check the pressure gauge. If the gauge does not show 20 to 30 inches
of vacuum (that is a reading of 20 to 30 below 0 atmospheric pressure),
see “Jacket Vacuum” on page 14.
3. Turn on the electrical power to the unit.
4. Turn the thermostat to desired setting. The heat indicator light will come
on. Cycling of the light on and off the shows that the kettle is being held
at the set temperature. Once in each cycle the contactors in the support
housing will make a clicking sound. This is normal.
5. If the unit does not light, turn it off and wait five minutes. Then follow the
instructions again.
B. To Transfer Product or Empty Kettle
1. The kettle is tilted by means of a hand wheel on the front of the control
housing. The kettle remains in the position to which tilted until turned
again.
2. Product may also be transferred by means of the optional draw-off valve
if the kettle is so equipped.
C. Common Accessories
1. LIft-Off Cover or Counterbalanced Cover
As with stock pot cooking, an optional cover can speed up the heating
of water and food products. A cover helps retain heat and
reduces the heat and humidity released into the kitchen. Using a cover
can reduce some product cook times and help maintain the
temperature, color and texture of products being held or simmered for
longer periods.
Be sure the handle is secure on the lift-off cover before using. ALWAYS
use the handle to place or remove cover from the kettle. Wear protective
oven mitts and a protective apron.
When putting a lift-off cover on the kettle, position it on top of kettle rim,
with its flat edge facing the pouring lip.
WARNING
WHEN TILTING KETTLE
1) WEAR PROTECTIVE OVEN MITT AND
PROTECTIVE APRON.
2) USE DEEP CONTAINER TO CONTAIN AND
MINIMIZE PRODUCT SPLASHING.
3) PLACE CONTAINER ON STABLE, FLAT
SURFACE, AS CLOSE TO KETTLE AS
POSSIBLE.
4) STAND TO RIGHT OF KETTLE WHILE
POURING—NOT DIRECTLY IN POUR PATH
OF HOT CONTENTS.
5) POUR SLOWLY, MAINTAINING CONTROL
OF KETTLE, AND RETURN KETTLE BODY TO
UPRIGHT POSITION AFTER CONTAINER IS
FILLED OR TRANSFER IS COMPLETE.
6) DO NOT OVERFILL CONTAINER. AVOID
SKIN CONTACT WITH HOT CONTAINER AND
ITS CONTENTS.
CAUTION
DO NOT OVERFILL THE KETTLE WHEN

Operation
When removing a lift-off cover:
a. Firmly grasp the handle
b. Lift rear edge (farthest from operator) 1-2” (3-5 cm) to allow
steam and water vapor to escape the cooking vessel. Wait 2-3
seconds.
c. Tilt cover to 45-60° angle to allow any hot condensate or product
to roll off cover back into kettle.
d. Remove cover, ensuring that any remaining hot condensate or
product does not drip on operator, floor or work surfaces.
e. Place cover on safe, flat, sanitary, out-of-the-way surface, or
return to kettle.
2. Basket Insert
An optional kettle basket insert set can assist in cooking water- boiled
products including eggs, potatoes, vegetables, shell fish, pasta and rice.
The nylon mesh liner must be used for products smaller than the basket
mesh size, (approximately 1/4”, 6mm). This includes rice and small pasta
shapes. Tips for use:
a. Allow for displacement of the three baskets and product. This
may mean only half filling the kettle. Test baskets and product
displacement with the kettle off, and with cold water in the kettle.
b. Load baskets on a level, stable work surface.
c. Lift loaded baskets with both hands. Get help from another
person if the basket is too heavy for safe handling.
d. Slowly lower product into kettle and securely hook basket to the
“Y” frame.
e. When removing baskets with cooked product, lift straight up,
ensuring basket bottoms clear the kettle rim and pouring lip. Wear
protective oven mitts and protective apron.
f. Allow hot water to fully drain from product before moving basket
away from the kettle. Do not rest baskets on kettle rim or pouring
lip. If baskets are too heavy for individual to lift and safely move,
get help. Remove product immediately from basket into another
container, being sure to avoid contact with hot product and hot
basket or...
g. Place baskets with food on a stable, flat surface, inside a solid
steamer or bake pan,to catch any remaining hot water draining
