Introduction to the EST 
The EST Dishmachine is safe and easy to operate with its “Auto Start/Stop” and it’s economical 
to operate—using only 1.25 gallons of water per cycle and less than 1900 watts of power when 
running.  The EST Dishmachine’s top mounted controls include built-in chemical pumps and a 
deliming system that assures proper chemical usage.  Its integrated scrap tray prevents food soil 
from entering the drain system.  The EST can be run at a rate of 37 racks/148 covers per hour 
and its heavy-duty stainless steel construction assures long life and years of trouble free 
operation. 
The EST is available for straight or corner applications. 
This manual is structured to provide a complete reference guide to the EST Dishmachine.  It is 
presented in a manner that all users will be able to comprehend and use as an effective tool in 
supporting the operation and maintenance of the dishmachine.  The first section explains how the 
machine is packaged and what to look for when receiving the machine. 
After unpacking the machine, this manual explains how to install and set up the machine for use.  
Requirements are given for plumbing, wiring, and space considerations.  These attributes of the 
machine are always taken into consideration by our well-trained sales representatives prior to the 
order being placed
.  In the manual, guidance is also given for installation to ensure that the 
machine will be able to run at optimum conditions. 
The Operation section of the manual may be used for instruction and procedures when required.  
We make this portion of the manual easy to understand so that all levels of operators may be 
able to read and comprehend the operation of the machine.  The function of the machine itself is 
mostly automatic and takes little training to put into full operation.  The Operation section also 
includes diagnostic considerations (troubleshooting) for the machine when problems occur. 
The remaining sections of the manual—Parts Manual and Electrical Diagram—have the parts 
lists with exploded view drawings and the wiring diagram for the machine. 
CMA warranties the workmanship of the machine. 
We are committed to providing the best machines and customer service in the food industry and 
your feedback is welcome.
