Important: Operator Checklist
During Cleaning and Sanitizing:
ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL HEALTH CODES.
Cleaning and sanitizing schedules are governed
by federal, state, or local regulatory agencies,
and must be followed accordingly. If the unit
has a “Standby mode”, it must not be used in
lieu of proper cleaning and sanitizing
procedures and frequencies set forth by the
ruling health authority. The following check
points should be stressed during the cleaning
and sanitizing operations.
Troubleshooting Bacterial Count:
j
1. Thoroughly clean and sanitize machine
regularly, including complete disassembly and
brush cleaning.
j
2. Use all brushes supplied for thorough cleaning.
The brushes are specially designed to reach all
mix passageways.
j
3. Use the white bristle brush to clean the mix feed
tube, which extends from the hopper down to
the rear of the freezing cylinder.
j
4. Use the black bristle brush to thoroughly clean
the rear shell bearing located at the rear of the
freezing cylinder. Be sure to have a generous
amount of cleaning solution on the brush.
j
5. IF LOCAL HEALTH CODES PERMIT THE
USE OF RERUN, make sure the mix rerun is
stored in a sanitized, covered stainless steel
container, placed in the walk--in cooler and used
the following day. DO NOT prime the machine
with rerun. When using rerun, skim off the foam
and discard, then mix the rerun with fresh mix
in a ratio of 50/50 during the day’s operation.
j
6. On a designated day of the week, run the mix as
low as feasible and discard after closing. This
will break the rerun cycle and reduce the
possibility of high bacteria and coliform counts.
j
7. Properly prepare the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions. Read and follow label directions
carefully. Too strong of a solution may damage
the parts and too weak of a solution will not do
an adequate job of cleaning or sanitizing.
j
8. Temperature of mix in mix hopper and walk--in
cooler should be below 40_F. (4.4_C.).
Regular Maintenance Checks:
j
1. Replace scraper blades that are nicked,
damaged or worn down.
j
2. Before installing beater, be certain the scraper
blade is properly attached.
j
3. Check rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive mix leakage in drip pan) and be
certain it is properly cleaned.
j
4. Using a screwdriver and cloth towel, keep the
rear shell bearing and the female square drive
socket clean and free of lubricant and mix
deposits.
j
5. Dispose of o--rings and seals if they are worn,
torn, or fit too loosely, and replace with new
ones.
j
6. Follow all lubricating procedures as outlined in
“Assembly”.
j
7. Check the condenser(s) for accumulation of dirt
and lint. Dirty condensers will reduce the
efficiency and capacity of the machine.
Condensers should be cleaned monthly with a
soft brush. Never use screwdrivers or other
metal probes to clean between the fins.
Note: For machines equipped with an air filter,
vacuum clean the filters on a monthly schedule.
