When sanitizing the freezer, refer to local sanitary regula-
tions for applicable codes and recommended sanitizing
products and procedures. The frequency of sanitizing
must comply with local health regulations. Mix sanitizer
according to manufacturer’s instructions to provide a 100
parts per million strength solution. Mix sanitizer in quanti-
ties of no less than 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of 120°F water.
Allow sanitizer to contact the surfaces to be sanitized for
5 minutes. Any sanitizer must be used only in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE
Stoelting has found that Stera-Sheen Green Label
does an effective job of properly sanitizing a shake
freezer. We therefore include a sample with each
new freezer. Other products may be as effective.
CAUTION
Prolonged contact of sanitizer with freezer may
cause corrosion of stainless steel parts.
In general, sanitizing may be conducted as follows:
A. With the auger in place, install the mix inlet
regulator into hopper with air inlet (long) tube
toward the front of the freezer (Fig. 3-2).
NOTE
It is recommended to sanitize the freezer without
the blender assembly installed. Once the freezer
has been sanitized, install the blender and sanitize
the blender shaft.
B. Prepare 4 gallons (15 liters) of sanitizing solution
following manufacturer’s instructions. Set aside a
large cup of sanitizer solution to sanitize the
blender. Pour the remainder of the solution into
hopper.
C. Place the Power OFF-ON switch in the ON position
and press the CLEAN button. Check for leaks.
D. Clean sides of hopper, mix inlet regulator and
underside of hopper cover using a sanitized soft
bristle brush dipped in the sanitizing solution (Fig.
3-3).
E. After five minutes, place a bucket under the spigot
and open spigot to drain sanitizing solution. When
solution has drained, press the CLEAN button to
stop the auger. Allow the freezer barrel to drain
completely.
F. Install the blender assembly to fhe front door, plug
the blender into the outlet on the freezer, and
place the Blender Power OFF-ON switch in the
ON position.
G. Submerge the blender shaft into the large cup
with sanitizer solution and push the spigot handle
to the right. Allow the blender shaft to be
submerged for at least 30 seconds.
3.4 FREEZE DOWN AND OPERATION
This section covers the recommended operating proce-
dures to be followed for the safe operation of the freezer.
A. Sanitize just prior to use.
B. Place the Power OFF-ON switch in the OFF
position.
NOTE
Make sure the mix inlet regulator and blender as-
sembly are in place before adding mix.
C. With spigot open, pour approximately 1 gallon
(3.8 liters) of fully thawed mix into the hopper.
Allow the mix to flush out about 8 ounces (0.23
liters) of sanitizing solution and liquid mix. Close
the spigot.
