INTRODUCTION  
TO THE KITCHEN MANAGER:  
1. Read this manual carefully and in its entirety. Contact Market Forge Ind., Inc. for clarification if necessary.  
2. Protect your kitchen personnel from scalding and other serious injury by providing training programs to ac-  
quaint all equipment operators with the correct and safe methods of operation.  
3. Operators must be made aware of the consequences of misuse. Steam producing equipment, no matter  
who the manufacturer, is inherently dangerous when misused. The possibility of serious scalding always  
exists, the careless and/or untrained operator will be injured.  
4. This equipment must be maintained according to the guidelines in this manual (see “maintenance”). Lack  
of maintenance will lead to a potentially hazardous condition and possible liability. Operators should report  
any equipment malfunction immediately and steps must be taken to correct the problem before further use  
of the equipment is allowed.  
5. Keep this manual for daily reference.  
INTRODUCTION:  
Market Forge, in the interest of both cost and efficiency has designed these steam boilers with the latest automatic  
controls in order to make it easier for the operator to use and maintain this equipment. Standard components are  
utilized on all models unless variances in size or capacity dictate a divergence from this policy for more efficiency  
of operation. This parts and service manual is written and illustrated to cover all steam boiler equipment that uses  
gas as a source of fuel other than those which have been custom designed under special order.  
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL:  
The pictures of components are aids to the identification, disassembly and assembly of parts. The parts listing  
provides information necessary for the ordering of replacement parts (proper part names and part numbers). When  
requesting parts or service always furnish the model and serial number of your complete unit, this will indicate to  
Market Forge Service Personnel the type of boiler that you have. This information can be found on the nameplate  
attached to the boiler frame.  
THEORY OF OPERATION FOR GAS BOILER:  
An explanation of how the control system operates on automatic gas boilers follows:  
After the boiler is filled with water to the proper level and the fuel switch is turned ON, the main gas valve will be  
activated allowing gas to flow to the main burners that will be ignited by the Spark Pilot. When the boiler builds to  
its set pressure, the pressure switch opens. This will open the circuit to the gas valve that will stop the flow of gas  
to the main burners. As the pressure in the boiler drops the pressure control switch will again complete the circuit  
and build the boiler back to its set pressure. To stop all steam generation place the FILL/ON-OFF switch to the OFF  
position.

*GAS SERVICE CONNECTIONS:  
a) The boiler is factory adjusted for a gas input of 100, 200 & 300K BTU/HR at the pressure indicated.  
Please read the rating plate behind the Lift-Off Front Panel. If this plate is marked for a different gas than  
that supplied, notify your dealer immediately. Install an external gas supply shut off valve in a visible and  
accessible location. If the unit is placed at the minimum side clearances rather than the optimum side  
clearances, the only acceptable location for the gas supply shut off valve is under the unit in the space  
provided by the legs.  
b) Use new iron or steel pipe complying with the latest ANSI Standard for Wrought-Steel and Wrought-Iron  
Pipe, B36, properly threaded, reamed and free from chips, oil and dirt. If pipe dope is used, apply a mod-  
erate amount leaving two end threads bare. Pipe dope must be resistant to LP gas. Connect the gas line  
into the bottom (inlet) side of the shutoff valve. The supply pressure must be at least 1” (25mm) water  
column higher than the manifold or regulator pressure for proper functioning of the regulator. If it is not  
check the supply pipe for blockage or excessive pressure drop and make necessary corrections.  
c) Perform a gas leak test of all newly-made joints, as well as those leading to the main gas control valve.  
Use a soap solution, DO NOT USE FLAME.

ADJUSTMENTS  
A. IF GAS PRESSURE IS LOW:  
Check your gas supply line for a restriction. If no restriction exists, check with your Natural gas supplier to  
provide at least 5” of water column pressure in the gas supply line. If no restriction exists and Propane gas is  
being used, the tank pressure regulator should be adjusted to supply at least 11” of water column pressure  
in the gas supply line. If this adjustment cannot be made to your satisfaction, the gas supplier should be noti-  
fied.  
B. IF GAS PRESSURE IS TOO HIGH:  
Adjust the pressure regulator on the boiler gas valve to reduce the pressure if Natural gas is being used. If  
Propane gas is being used, adjust the pressure regulator supplied by the gas supplier. If the regulator cannot  
be adjusted, notify the gas supplier.

ADJUSTMENTS  
SETTING THE BOILER CONTROL PRESSURE SWITCHES:  
PRESSURE CONTROL SWITCH ADJUSTMENT:  
If boiler fails to maintain steam pressure in operating range, pressure control switch may require adjustment.  
1. Start boiler and allow pressure to build up to operating level - 7 PSI (1kg/cm²).  
2. Check boiler pressure gauge. If gauge indicates 5 to 7 PSI, pressure control switches are properly ad-  
justed.  
3. If boiler does not come on when pressure gauge reads 7 PSI and does not go off when pressure gauge  
reads 7 PSI, proceed as follows:  
WARNING: Because power must be on to adjust pressure switches, be sure to protect against electrical shock.  
a) Remove screw and lift front cover off control box.  
b) Hand adjust operating pressure control switch and high limit pressure control switch by turning adjusting  
nut (Knurled knob) clockwise to raise and counter clockwise to lower actuation point. Switch should be  
set so that boiler comes on when boiler pressure gauge reads 5 PSI and goes off when gauge reads 7  
PSI. Switch should be set so that boiler will shut off if pressure reaches 15 PSI.  
c) The actuation value (differential) is factory set and cannot be changed.  
d) The cold water condensor thermostat is preset at factory.  
e) Repeat steps, 1, 2, and 3. If 45 to 7 PSI boiler pressure gauge reading is obtained during boiler opera-  
tion, adjustment is correct. If proper adjustment cannot be made consult Trouble-Shooting Guide in this  
manual.  
f) After making adjustments, replace cover on pressure switch box and screw.

MAINTENANCE  
CLEANING THE BOILER:  
Market Forge recommends that the boiler be cleaned periodically due to impurities introduced through the water  
supply. All water supplies contain some mineral deposits and impurities, the degree varies with geographic loca-  
tion. Market Forge is recommending a cleaning schedule that will keep your equipment in proper, safe working  
order where water supplies are relatively pure. Because no water supply can be accurately compared with that of  
another, this section should not be regarded as fool proof. A stepped-up, more frequent cleaning schedule may be  
required when excessive impurities exist.  
The Cleaning schedule should be performed two or more times per year as governed by the local water condi-  
tions. Market Forge recommends the use of its “cathodic descaler” to protect the inner boiler walls and components  
against rust, scale and lime deposits. The normal effectiveness of a descaler is one year.  
The schedule for changing the “cathodic descaler” may be timed to the cleaning schedule or accelerated as noted  
above.  
Market Forge qualified service agencies are available to establish a suitable schedule for TOTAL CONCEPT clean-  
ing and descaler replacement.

1 Hand-hole Cover Gasket  
1 Set of Rubber & Brass Washers  
1 Probe Plate Gasket (Gas Only)  
1 Market Forge Cathodic Descaler (all boilers) new style  
1 Dynaseal Washer  
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:  
1. Move the HEAT and POWER switch to their OFF positions.On electric models also turn off the electric  
power at the main switch. This will allow the boiler to empty.  
WARNING: (ALL BOILERS ) DISCONNECT THE 115 VOLT POWER SUPPLY.  
Fig. 1.  
2. Remove the hand-hole cover as follows: (Refer to Fig. 1)  
a) Remove pressure switch box at the plumbing union and move it out of the way.  
b) With an open end wrench back off the hex-nut, counterclockwise, so only two threads are holding it.  
Then remove the pressure switch box and set aside.  
c) With a blunt instrument, strike the hand-hole cover until its seal is broken.  
d) Remove the hex-nut from the remaining two threads, slide off the washer and channel yoke do not allow  
the hand-hole cover to drop inside.  
e) Remove the hand-hole cover by turning it so that it will pass through the opening. Remove the bolt and  
dynaseal. Discard the hand-hole gasket and dynaseal washer.

MAINTENANCE  
3. Clean rust, scale and lime deposits from the inside of the boiler with a wire brush.  
DO NOT DAMAGE COPPER HEATING ELEMENTS - BRUSH LIGHTLY. WORK DEPOSITS TO REAR  
CORNER AND REMOVE WITH PUTTY KNIFE.  
4. After removing all debris, flush out with clean water through the hand-hole and drain .  
5. Clean the hand-hole cover with a wire brush and wash. Be sure the areas that contact the gasket and dy-  
naseal are clean and smooth.  
Fig. 2.  
Fig. 3.  
6. To protect against further scale and corrosion remove the old cathodic descaler. Install a New Market Forge  
Cathodic Descaler. See fig. 2 or 3, page 43.  
7. Without the use of gasket compound, re-install the handhole cover using a new gasket and dynaseal  
washer. A torque of approximately 50 in. lbs. is required to reset the hex nut. Reinstall the pressure switch  
box. Bring the boiler to operating pressure. If a leak appears, at the handhole cover, relieve the pressure in  
the boiler and retighten the hex nut.  
8. Clean the water gauge glass as follows:  
a) Move the heat and power switch to their off positions. This will allow the boiler to empty.  
b) Unscrew the fittings from both valves and slide them toward the center of the guage glass. Push the  
water gauge glass downward compressing the rubber washer in the lower valve allowing the glass  
to be removed.  
c) Remove and discard the two rubber and brass washers. Slip off the two valve fittings and clean the wa-  
ter gauge glass.  
d) Reassemble by reversing the above steps with new rubber and brass washers . (see fig. 4)

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR TOTAL CONCEPT CLEANING OF BOILER  
SIZE: 1 Gallon PART NUMBER: 20 - 0307  
Fig. 2  
GENERAL NOTES:  
Market Forge R has two basic types of boilers; one has  
an automatic drain valve, the other has a manual drain  
valve. To determine which type you have, open cabinet  
doors and you will see a control box with two switches  
and an indicator light. The instruction label on the control  
box will identify the boiler as being either automatic or  
manual. Those boilers designated as being automatic  
must be energized in order to close the drain valve.  
Total Concept is designed to be used with water between  
160°F to 200°F.  
Preheating is required on both automatic and manual  
boilers to raise the water temperature to the acceptable  
range. (160°F to 200°F).  
2. Energize heating circuit to pre-heat unit.  
For manual boilers, make certain drain valve is tightly  
closed.  
Fig. 3  
On Market Forged boilers manufactured after 8/84; your  
unit is equipped with an access plug in the steam header  
line. This location should be used to add cleaner/des-  
caler to boiler chamber during maintenance.  
On Market Forged boilers manufactured before 8/84; ac-  
cess to boiler chamber should be gained through either  
the vent-rite or the pressure relief valve.  
Total Concept is a NSF listed nonfood product. This is  
a liquid acid (nonmuriatic) product that works without  
fumes, odors, and hazards associated with other harsh  
chemicals.  
BOILER TREATMENT CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:  
After determining proper location for cleaner/descaler  
to be added: Read complete instructions thoroughly; in-  
cluding all warning and cautionary statements.
