Sanitation and Cleaning

Maintenance:

The water and ice making systems will need to be periodically sanitized and de-mineralized. The air cooled condenser will also need to be kept clean. Detailed instructions are provided on page 14.

Schedule the sanitation, cleaning and de-mineralization on a regular basis to keep the ice clean and the machine operating efficiently

Water System:

The water system requires periodic sanitation and de-mineralization.

Schedule & Responsibility:

A Scotsman Ice System represents a sizable investment of time and money in any company’s business. In order to receive the best return for that investment, it MUST receive periodic maintenance.

It is the USER’S RESPONSIBILITY to see that the unit is properly maintained. The following is a list of recommended maintenance that will help keep the machine running with a minimum of problems.

Maintenance and Cleaning should be scheduled at a minimum of twice per year.

ICEMAKING SYSTEM: In place cleaning

1.Check and clean any water treatment devices, if any are installed.

2.Remove screws and remove the top and front panels.

3.Move the ON - OFF switch to OFF.

4.Open the door to the ice storage bin, and remove the ice.

5.Remove the cover to the water reservoir and block the float up.

6.Drain the water reservoir and freezer assembly.

7.Prepare the cleaning solution: Mix 4 ounces of

Scotsman Ice Machine Cleaner with 1 12 quarts of hot water. The water should be between 90-115oF.

Scotsman Ice Machine Cleaner contains acids. These compounds may cause burns.

If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Give large amounts of water or milk. Call Physician immediately. In case of external contact, flush with water.

KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

8.Slowly pour the cleaning solution into the water reservoir until it is full. Wait 15 minutes, then switch the master switch to ON.

9.As the ice maker begins to use water from the reservoir, continue to add more cleaning solution to maintain a full reservoir.

10.After all of the cleaning solution has been added to the reservoir, and the reservoir is nearly empty, switch the master switch to OFF.

11.After draining the reservoir, as in step 6, wash and rinse the water reservoir.

12.Go thru steps 13 - 18 to sanitize the ice machine water system.

13.Mix two gallons of sanitizer solution. Use an approved sanitizer.

A possible sanitzer solution may be obtained by mixing two gallons of warm (90-115oF.) potable water with 1 ounce of household bleach.

14.Slowly pout the sanitizer solution into the water reservoir until it is full, then switch the master switch to ON.

15.As the ice machine uses water from the reservoir, continue to add sanitizing solution to keep the reservoir full.

16.After 12 of the sanitizer solution has been added to the reservoir, and the reservoir is nearly empty, switch the master switch OFF.

17.Drain the reservoir and thoroughly wash the interior of the reservoir and cover with sanitizer solution.

18.Remove the block from the float in the water reservoir.

19.Switch the master switch to ON.

20.Continue ice making for at least 15 minutes, to flush out any cleaning solution. Switch the master switch OFF.

DO NOT USE any ice produced from the cleaning solution. Be sure no ice remains in the bin.

21.Remove all ice from the storage bin.

22.Add warm water to the ice storage bin and thoroughly wash and rinse all surfaces within the bin.

23.Sanitize the bin interior by thoroughtly washing all interior surfaces of the bin with the balance of the sanitizer solution.

24.Switch the master switch ON.

25.Replace the top and the front panels.
