Ensure the equipment is powered off and disconnected from any energy source before beginning installation.

Operating Instructions

The 84656 Latch-Drain Pan Lock LVX operates manually to secure the drain pan in place. Its primary function is to prevent accidental dislodgement of the drain pan during equipment operation or movement.

• To Lock: Position the drain pan correctly. Engage the latch by pushing or rotating it until it securely hooks onto the designated point on the drain pan, holding it firmly.
• To Unlock: To remove or access the drain pan, disengage the latch by reversing the locking action (pulling or rotating) until the hook releases the pan.

Always ensure the latch is fully engaged when the equipment is in use to prevent spills or damage.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance of the latch ensures its longevity and proper function.

• Cleaning: Periodically clean the latch with a damp cloth to remove any grease, food debris, or dust. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
• Inspection: Routinely inspect the latch for any signs of wear, bending, or damage. Check that the mounting fasteners are tight.
• Lubrication: If the latch mechanism feels stiff, a small amount of food-grade lubricant can be applied to the pivot points, if applicable, to ensure smooth operation.
• Replacement: If the latch shows significant wear, damage, or no longer secures the drain pan effectively, it should be replaced with a genuine Henny Penny 84656 part.
