Operator Checklist
During Cleaning and Sanitizing
Cleaning and sanitizing schedules are governed by your
state or local regulatory agencies and must be followed
accordingly. The following checkpoints should be
stressed during the cleaning and sanitizing operations.
Important! Cleaning and sanitizing must be performed
daily.
Troubleshooting Bacterial Count
 
Thoroughly clean and sanitize the machine
regularly, including complete disassembly and
brush-cleaning.
  Use all brushes supplied for thorough cleaning.
The brushes are specially designed to reach all
product passageways.
  Use the brush to clean the mix inlet hole which
extends from the mix hopper down to the rear of
the freezing cylinder.
  Use the black bristle brush to thoroughly clean
the rear shell bearing located at the rear of the
freezing cylinder. Use a generous amount of
cleaning solution on the brush.
  Using a screwdriver and cloth towel, clean the
female square drive socket and rear shell bearing
of lubricant and product deposits.
 
Properly prepare the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions. Read and follow label directions
carefully. Too
strong of a solution may damage
the parts, and too weak of a solution will not do an
adequate job of cleaning or sanitizing.
  Clean and sanitize the product lines regularly to
prevent syrup residue buildup that would restrict
the proper flow of syrup.
  On a regular basis, take a brix reading to ensure a
consistent, quality product (post mix valve
systems only).
Regular Maintenance Checks
  Replace scraper blades that are nicked or
damaged.
  Before installing the beater, make sure the scraper
blades are properly attached over the pins.
  Check the rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive product leakage from the rear drip
pans to the front drip tray).
  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(s) for dirt and lint. Dirty condensers will
reduce the efficiency and capacity of the machine.
Condensers should be cleaned monthly. Use a
soft brush to clean between the fins. 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 monthly.
