Regular Maintenance Checks
  Replace scraper blades that are nicked or
damaged. Before installing the dasher assembly,
be certain that the scraper blades are properly
attached to the dasher shaft.
  Check the rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive mix leakage in rear drip pan) and be
certain it is properly cleaned.
  Using a long brush and a cloth towel, clean the
rear shell bearing and the female hex drive socket
of lubricant and mix deposits.
  Dispose of O-rings and seals if they are worn,
torn, or fit too loosely, and replace them with new
ones.
  Follow all lubricating procedures as outlined in
Assembly on page 6-1.
  If your machine is air-cooled, check the condenser
for dirt and lint. Dirty condensers will reduce the
efficiency and capacity of the machine.
Condensers should be cleaned
monthly with a
soft brush. Do not 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 monthly.
Caution: Always disconnect electrical
power prior to cleaning the condenser. Failure to
follow this instruction may result in electrocution.
  If your machine is water-cooled, 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 an authorized Taylor
distributor.
Winter Storage
If the place of business is to be closed during the winter
months, it is important to protect the freezer by following
certain precautions, particularly if the building is subject
to freezing conditions.
Disconnect the freezer from the main power source to
prevent possible electrical damage.
On water-cooled freezers, 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 winter
storage service for you.
Wrap detachable parts of the freezer such as dasher,
blades, dasher shaft, and freezer door, and place them 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.
It is recommended that a service technician perform
winter storage draining to ensure all water has been
removed. This will guard against freezing and rupturing
of the components.
