7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
PROCEDURES
Before performing any operation related to
machine maintenance or cleaning, it is
essential to use the personal protective
equipment (gloves, glasses, etc...) set by the
safety regulations in force in the country of
use.
When performing Cleaning and Maintenance tasks, please do
so as follows:
• Use protective gloves to avoid accidents.
• Do not use solvents or flammable material.
• Do not use metallic and/or abrasive sponges to wash the
machine or its components.
• Try not to disperse liquids into the environment.
• Do not wash the machine's components in the dishwasher.
• Do not use a conventional oven or a microwave to dry
machine parts.
• Do not submerge the machine in water.
• Do not spray the machine directly with jets of water.
• For cleaning purposes only use tepid water and a suitable
detergent according to 21CFR1781010 (in any case set by the
safety regulations in force in the country of use) which does
not damage machine components.
• When the job is done, correctly replace and reassemble the
removed or opened casings and protections.
Cleaning and sanitizing operations must be done regularly and
with great care to guarantee quality and production and
respecting the applicable hygiene standards.
The machine's cleaning and sanitization
should be performed at least once a day
always respecting the applicable standards
for hygiene in the country of use. If required
by the products characteristics these
operations should be performed more
frequently; for further information please
consults the product's manufacturer. In the
case of the machine not being used
continuously throughout
the day, the product's tap and output pipe
must be cleaned using a clean cloth
dampened with a detergent solution as
shown on the following figure
The stainless steel, plastic and rubber used
to make these parts aid their cleaning but do
not prevent the formation of bacteria and
mould in the case of insufficient cleaning.
The ice-cream contains fats which are ideal
breeding grounds for fungus and bacteria. In
order to remove them the bodies that come
into contact with the product must be washed
and cleaned with great care.
The ideal temperature of the water for
washing and sanitizing should not exceed 40
ºC.
