Maintenance Tips  

• Daily cleaning: Wash welded aluminum frame and fixed slide angles with mild detergent and warm water; avoid abrasive pads or acidic cleaners that can damage the finish.
• Sanitize properly: Apply NSF-approved food-safe sanitizer after cleaning to maintain hygiene in prep, storage, and cooling workflows.
• Caster inspection: Check 5" swivel casters regularly; remove debris and ensure smooth rolling for safe transport in tight kitchen spaces.
• Tighten hardware: Periodically inspect caster bolts and frame joints to maintain stability under full 12-pan load.
• Load management: Do not exceed rated 12-pan capacity; distribute weight evenly to prevent stress on welded supports.
• Dry after washing: Wipe completely dry to prevent water spots and maintain a clean, professional finish in wet or cold environments.
• Routine inspection: Check weld points, vertical supports, and slide alignment for wear or buildup in high-use operations.
• Storage care: Store in a dry, ventilated area to reduce grease accumulation and maintain food safety compliance.
