10.1 Sanitizing
The washing and sanitizing instructions
explained in this manual are important
procedures to remove bacteria and
maintain a clean, sanitary freezer. IDQ
requires the soft serve freezer to be
disassembled, washed, and sanitized
daily according to the instructions in
the manual. Always sanitize prior to
assembling to ensure the best possible
cleanliness.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use unapproved sanitizers
or laundry bleach. These materials
may contain high concentrations of
chlorine and will chemically attack
freezer components.
NOTE:
It is your responsibility to
be aware of and conform to the
requirements for meeting federal,
state, and local laws concerning the
frequency of cleaning and sanitizing
the freezer.
1. Prepare 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of
sanitizing solution for each cylinder.
Sanitizing solution must be mixed
according to manufacturer’s
instructions to yield 100 PPM strength
chlorine solution (example: Stera-
Sheen Green Label). Use warm water
(100° to 110°F or 37° to 43°C) to
wash, rinse, and sanitize.
2. Wash and sanitize your hands and
forearms.
3. Sanitizing with mix stored in
drawers. Insure stainless air curtain
is installed in front of bag storage area
to keep it cooling (figure 10-1).
Important:
Never let the sanitizer remain in the
freezer for more than 15 minutes.
4. Fill a bucket with sanitizer solution
and immerse the pickup tubes into
the sanitizer solution and sanitize the
outside portion. Be sure all adapters
and items that will come in contact
with mix are sanitized.
5. Place an empty container under the
dispensing head.
6. Open the air bleed plugs by pulling up
until the plugs touch the bottom of the
switch box.
7. Turn on the main power switch to the
freezer. The spigots must be closed.
Using the control panel press the L2 &
R2 keys to turn the MTS pumps “ON”.

CAUTION
To prevent bacteria growth,
use only approved sanitizers to
sanitize the machine. Sanitizing

hazard.
