Delivered.

.

Not installed.  But... inspected and found to be in good order, from what I can tell.  However, to run it I will need to install.  I did find the soap and jet-dry.  Of course, first, I have to get it powered, watered, and drained.

Initially, with what arrived, I thought I might need help.  An electrical hardwire package came with it.  Well, with a charge.  I'll be returning that.  As, with the machine there is also a three-prong connection so as to simply plug the thing in.  It's pretty short, but... I... can fix that.

What I also need to sort out is a few plywood panels, for on the side.  To case it in, more or less.  I am not sure if those are to be attached to the machine or not.  The top is, but that will have to be manufactured.  What I need are elbows, to stabilize the side walls of the casing, and to attach some sort of countertop, or the beginning of such.

But, right now, I... need more sleep.  Rather than try to push through, I plan on napping right now, while it is cooler, and hopefully being awake enough later to go get the brackets, and begin working on the casing and some sort of beginning of a topper for the thing.

So tired.  But that is fine.

Oh, I found an installation vid.  Just in case, just to review.  I had contacted someone for possible help.  But, after realizing the electrical doesn't have to be hardwired, I told him I thought I could solo it.  And, in time, I may hardwire it.  But just not now.  Not difficult to reset, should I get around to that.  But, for now, I don't want to mess with running wire, and hooking it up to the panel.  If I do that, I'll run another wire, for another outlet, for other reasons.

So very tired though.  I just really need more sleep.  I've worn myself out a bit beyond my ability to just push through quite now.  But, later, or tomorrow.  Heck, my ribs hurt.  I'm just... too tired.

  1. Happy for you, I like my Bosch. ONLY real "nags" are behavior based. When someone (I know who "they" are) leaves food to dry on plates in their room for weeks... then gets tired of being told to get them to the kitchen, and throws dried food on silverware and plates in the dishwasher, two things happen, what gunk that does melt off ends up in the food/grease trap (for me to clean later, yuk) and secondly dried food on stuff won't get clean without rinse/ soak. That said, I'm amazed at some of the stuff that does come clean.
    Experiment, have fun.

  2. Yeah. I only have me. So, if I don't like something, I know how to fix it. Besides, if something gets dry gooped, I will soak it overnight, in hot water and some soap, then put it in. As is, I often soak dishes for extended times before hand washing.

    Oh, and the soap I bought suggests it handles dried on food? I'll try it, a time or two, just to see. If... more lightly gooped up food. Just... to see what it can do in a pinch. Prefer not to put goop in, for the reason you suggest. Had to clean nasty pipes in the Navy, and places. I don't prefer to do that now.

    Had two chiefs, seniors, in bootcamp. I liked them, but told one a joke on graduation day. One of them laughed, not the one I told the joke too.

    "I wouldn't kick your ass, if I saw you on the street, after leaving the Navy. You know why? - He said "No". - I said... "Because after I get out of the Navy, I'll never voluntarily stand in a line again". *grins* A few beers, and 19. Go figure. One of them laughed, one not so much. Though I don't think he really cared, just tired and didn't think it was funny (or had heard it a dozen times before?).
