Scraper Blade Wear Mark
Annually:
Check the belts for signs of wear or cracking.
Remove panels and clean all parts inside of the machine
including the base, side panels, drip tray, drip tray hose,
etc.
DISCONNECT THE MACHINE FROM ITS POWER
SOURCE(S) BEFORE PERFORMING ANY ROUTINE
MAINTENANCE. PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE
TO THE MACHINE COULD RESULT IF THIS
PRACTICE IS NOT OBSERVED.
Daily:
Inspect the machine for signs of product leaks
past seals and gaskets. If proper assembly does not
stop leaks around gaskets or seals, check for improper
lubrication and worn or damaged parts. Replace parts
as needed.
Daily:
Always clean and sanitize your machine on a
daily basis.
Periodically:
Inspect the scraper blades (Fig. 40) to
see that they are straight and sharp. If worn, damaged
or warped, the blades will not scrape the cylinder walls
correctly and the freezing capacity will be reduced.
Clean the drip chute assembly with warm water and
detergent solution.
WARNING

Periodically:
A drip tube exits the front of the machine
and drains into the drip tray. Whenever any residue ap-
pears in this drip tray (residue caused by the Rear Seal
not being lubricated properly, or the Rear Seal being worn
out.), clean the drip tube assembly and the tray beneath
the rear of the freezing cylinder. Removal of the left side
panel exposes the one screw which mounts the rear seal
leakage collection pan. Back out the screw and remove
the pan and drip tube. Thoroughly clean the leakage col-
lection pan and drip tube assembly using the same solu-
tions and procedures for daily cleaning of the components
in the three partition sink.
Weekly:
Flush system with warm (100
°
F - 120
°
F) water,
and sanitize system to local guidelines.
