Operating Procedures
Model 8657
Replace the tank lid and match the spiral wrapped air
and syrup lines to the syrup tank and connect.
Figure 89
Repeat this step for all syrup tanks.
Note: Refer to page 44 for sanitizing the syrup tanks.
Step 2
Calibrating the syrup flow: It is vital that the correct
amount of syrup be incorporated into the mix to obtain
a quality shake. The cause of too--thin shakes is often
too much syrup. The cause of too--thick shakes is often
too little syrup.
To determine the rate of syrup flow, you will need a
syrup sampler and a calibrating cup which indicates
the ounces of liquid. Generally the proper rate of syrup
flow is 1 ounce (29.6 ml) of syrup in 5 seconds. Once
this rate is set, the correct amount of syrup will be
blended with the shake base regardless of the size of
shake served.

Install the syrup sampler to the fitting on one of the
syrup lines.
Figure 91
Hold an empty cup beneath the exit point of the syrup
sampler. Press the quick disconnect fitting into the
syrup sampler. This will bleed any air pockets from the
syrup lines. Continue to press the syrup sampler until
a steady stream of syrup is flowing into the cup.
Figure 92
Hold the calibrating cup under the syrup sampler.
Press the syrup sampler and time the rate of syrup flow
for five (5) seconds; then release the button. If the
amount of syrup received is 1 ounce (29.6 ml), the
syrup is properly calibrated.
