Agitator Set Collar Adjustment
The following instructions describe how to properly adjust the set collars on a 32 or 52 oz. kettle
agitator assembly.
Steps to Adjust Set Collars on a 32 or 52 oz. Agitator Assembly
Agitator assembly is adjusted while fastened to the kettle (image shown for general reference only).
Step 1.
Turn machine OFF, unplug unit, and allow it to cool completely before attempting to
adjust the agitator height.
Step 2.
Loosen the set screw in the set collar above the crossbar and below the crossbar.
Step 3.
Place a 1/32”
(1 mm) gauge (thickness of a dime) under the base of the agitator shaft to
adjust clearance between the kettle cook surface and the shaft; reference image shown. Once
adjusted, re-tighten the set screw in the set collar
above
the crossbar to secure shaft in place.
Step 4.
Adjust clearance between the
bottom of the crossbar and the
lower
set collar to 1/32”
(1 mm) (thickness
of a dime); reference image shown.
Once adjusted, re-tighten set screw to
secure in place.
Step 5.
To check for proper
adjustment, make sure the stir rod is
parallel to the kettle cook surface (it
should be close - but not touching).
Step 6.
Spin the agitator shaft by
hand to ensure it spins freely and
is not dragging the bottom of the
kettle.
Step 3:
Adjust clearance
to
1/32” (1 mm)
