CMA Dishmachines CMA-180 Manuel D’Utilisation

 

 
The CMA-180 is a hot water sanitizing, single rack, door-type dishmachine.  It is a stand-alone 
machine featuring a self-contained booster heater (optional).  The only external connections 
necessary are power supply, water supply, drainpipe, and chemical dispensers.  The machine 
utilizes recirculated wash water and fresh water final rinse.  The CMA-180 can be converted both 
as a straight through and corner with a door handle kit.  
 
Operation of the CMA-180 is automatic.  When the door is opened and then closed, the wash 
cycle begins automatically.  To initially fill the machine daily, open the hand operated fill valve on 
the top of the machine.  The machine is full when water begins to flow into the scrap trap.  The 
wash tank heater will maintain the wash water temperature at 155°F.  The booster heater will 
produce a minimum of 180°F final rinse water each cycle.  
 
This manual is structured to provide a complete reference guide to the CMA-180.  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. 

 
Instructions are provided in the manual explaining how to unpack the machine and then 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-

guidance is given to ensure the machine can run at optimum conditions.
