 
On water-cooled machines, check the water lines
for kinks or leaks. Kinks can occur when the
machine is moved back and forth for cleaning or
maintenance. Deteriorated or cracked water lines
should be replaced only by a Taylor technician.
  Your machine is equipped with an auxiliary
refrigeration system. Check the auxiliary
condenser for dirt and lint. Dirty condensers will
reduce the refrigeration capacity of the mix
cabinet. Condensers must 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, it will be
necessary to vacuum-clean the filters on a monthly.
Air/Mix Pump
  Dispose of the O-rings, check bands, and the
pressure-switch diaphragm if they are worn, torn,
or fit too loosely. Replace them with new ones.
  Follow lubricating procedures carefully. Do not
lubricate check bands.
  Handle plastic pump parts with care to avoid nicks
and cracks.
  Make sure the pressure line is securely attached
to the pressure switch.
  Clean, sanitize, and lubricate the pressure-switch
diaphragm daily.
  Make sure the air/mix pump is properly aligned
with the face plate of the motor reducer, or severe
and costly damage may occur.
Winter Storage
If the place of business is to be closed during the winter
months, it is important to protect the machine by following
certain precautions, particularly if the building is subject
to freezing conditions.
Disconnect the machine from the main power source to
prevent possible electrical damage.
On water-cooled machines, disconnect the water supply.
Relieve pressure on the spring in the water valve. Use air
pressure on the outlet side to blow out any water
remaining in the condenser.
This is extremely
important. Failure to follow this procedure may cause
severe and costly damage to the refrigeration system.
Your local Taylor Distributor can perform this service for
you.
Wrap detachable parts of the machine (such as the
beater, blades, driveshaft, and freezer door) and place
these parts in a protected, dry place. Rubber trim parts
and gaskets can be protected by wrapping them with
moisture-proof paper. All parts should be thoroughly
cleaned of dried mix or lubrication, which can attract mice
and other vermin.
