Directions for Use:
WASHING
Fill the bucket with cold water to the Water Level mark. Plug in and switch on. The red LED will switch off when the water reaches the set temperature. Check temperature using the thermometer provided by placing thermometer in the location hole to the rear of the bucket, taking care to avoid the element. Adjust the thermostat if necessary to ensure correct temperature is reached.
Add your egg wash product.
Fill a basket with eggs, the dirtiest to the outside.
Lower the basket into the solution in the bucket ensuring that all the eggs are covered, remove eggs if necessary to accomplish this. Plug in the base and switch on. The base will oscillate gently.
After a few minutes, dependant upon the degree of soiling, remove the basket of sanitised eggs and leave to dry. Repeat with next basket of eggs.
The solution should be renewed each time five baskets of lightly soiled eggs have been washed. This procedure maintains the antibacterial and cleaning properties of the solution. Do not allow the water to become dirty or cold.
After use discard the water and rinse the bucket with fresh water.
SANITISING
After washing the eggs, allow to dry.
Lower the basket of dried eggs into a solution in the bucket ensuring that all the eggs are covered. Leave for 15 seconds then remove. Activation of the base is not required for this procedure.
The solution should be renewed each time 30 baskets have been dipped.
Clean, dry and store machine as previously.
PRECAUTIONS
Rinse off splashed powder/detergent or solution with plenty of clean cold water.
MSDS Sheets are available upon request.
Note: Washing of poultry eggs for sale within the EC market should be undertaken as permitted in the EC Egg (Marketing Standards) Regulations.
Why Clean and Sanitise Eggs?
Both dirty and visually clean eggs can have many thousands of bacteria present on the shell surface, such as salmonella, coliforms, proteus, pseudomanads, bacillus cereus, putrefactive anaerobes and coccal forms. They could represent a threat to health if they remain on eggs sold for human consumption and similarly with hatching eggs they can present a hazard to the health and viability of the chick. The Rotomaid Egg washing and Sanitising machine greatly reduces the chance of disease as well as providing visually clean eggs
