Model 161 Operating Procedures

Section 6 Operating Procedures
The Model 161 is a soft serve counter model with a
three spout door. Two individual flavors are available
from the end spouts, and an equal combination of both
is dispensed through the center spout to create a twis t
effect. It has a 1.5 quart (1.4 liter) capacity freezing
cylinder. The mix flows by gravity from the hopper to
the freezing cylinder through an air tube.
Duplicate the procedures where they apply for the
second freezing cylinder.
We begin our instructions at the point where we enter
the store in the morning and find the parts
disassembled and laid out to air dry from the prev ious
night’s cleaning.
These opening procedures will show you how to
assemble these parts into the machine, sanitize them,
and prime the machine with fresh mix in preparation to
serve your first portion.
