Section 7 Important: Operator ChecklistDuring Cleaning and Sanitizing
ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL HEALTH CODES.
Cleaning and sanitizing sch edules are governed
by federal, state,or local regulatory agencies,
and must be followed according ly. If the unit
has a “Standby mode”,it must not be used in
lieu of proper cleaningand sanitizing
proceduresand frequencies set forth by the
ruling health authority.The following check
points should be stressed during the cleaning
and sanitizing operations.
CLEANING AND SANITIZING MUST BE
PERFORMED DAILY.
Troubleshooting Bacterial Count
j1. Thoroughly c lean and sanitize the machine
regularly, including complete disassembly and
brush cleaning.
j2. Use all brushes s upplied for thorough
cleaning. The brushes are specially designed
to reach all mix passageways.
j3. Use the whit e bristle brush to clean the mix
inlet hole which extends from the mix hopper
down to the rear of the freezing cylinder.
j4. Use the black bristle brush to thoroughly
clean the rear shell bearing located at the rear
of the freezing cylinder. Be sure there is a
generous amount of cleaning solution on the
brush.
j5. IF LOCAL HEALTH CODE SP ERMIT THE
USE OF RERUN, make sure the mix rerun is
stored in a sanitized, covered stainless steel
container and used the following day. DO
NOT prime the machinewith rerun. When
using rerun, skim off the foam and discard.
Mix the rerun with fresh mix in a ratio of 50/50
during the days operation.
j6. On a designat ed day of the week, run the mix
as low as feasible and discard it after closing.
This will break the rerun cycle and reduce the
possibility of high bacteria and coliform
counts.
j7. Properly pr epare the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions. Read and follow the 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.
j8. The tem perature of the mix in the mix hopper
and walk-in cooler should be below 40_F
(4.4_C).
Regular Maintenance Checks
j1. Replace scraper blades that are nicked or
damaged. Before installing the beater
assembly, be certain that scraper blades and
leaf springs are properly attached to the
beater shaft.
j2. Check the rear shell bearing for s igns of wear
(excessive mix leakage in rear drip pan) and
be certain it is properly cleaned.
j3. Using a long brush and a clot h towel, keep
the rear shell bearing and the female hex
drive socket clean and free of lubricant and
mix deposits.
j4. Dispose of seals if they are worn, torn, or fit
too loosely, and replace with new ones.
