LEVER ICE/WATER

Levers are often used with foodservice equipment. For example, a lever is commonly found in beverage, condiment, and ice dispensing equipment where it is used to activate product flow. Coffee urns may use a lever to dispense coffee or hot water for tea. Most soda fountains use levers to dispense soda or other carbonated beverages. The lever is typically located on the front of the fountain and is pressed down to release the beverage into the cup. Two the simplest types of levers used in restaurants are a bottle or can opener which serve to pry off a cap, or punch a hole in a lid.
