Section 7 Important: Operator Checklist
During Cleaning and Sanitizing
ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL HEALTH CODES.
Cleaning and sanitizing schedules are governed by your
State or local regulatory agencies and must be followed
accordingly. The following check points should be stressed
during the cleaning and sanitizing operations.
WE RECOMMEND DAILY CLEANING AND SANITIZING.
Troubleshooting Bacterial Count
j 1. Thoroughly clean and sanitize the machine regularly.
This includes complete disassembly and brush
cleaning of the required components.
j 2. Use all of the supplied brushes for thorough cleaning.
The brushes are specially designed to reach all mix
passageways.
j 3. Use the white bristle brush to clean the mix inlet hole
which extends from the mix hopper down to the rear
of the freezing cylinder.
j 4. Use the black bristle brush to thoroughly clean the
rear shell bearing located at the rear of the freezing
cylinder. Be s ure there is a generous amount of
cleaning solution on the brush.
j 5. Using a screwdriver and cloth towel, keep the female
drive socket and rear shell bearing free of lubricant
and mix deposits.
j 6. Properly prepare 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.
j 7. If LOCAL HEALTH CODES PERMIT THE USE OF
RERUN, make sure the rerun is stored in a sanitized
covered stainless steel container and used the
following day. Discard all rerun once a week.
Regular Maintenance Checks
j 1. Replace blades that are nicked, damaged, or worn.
j 2. Dispose of o-rings and seals if they are worn, torn, or
fit too loosely. Replace faulty rubber parts with new
ones.
j 3. Check the rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive mix leakage from the rear shell bearing
into the front drip tray).
j 4. Follow all lubricating procedures as outlined in
“Assembly”.
j 5. On air cooled units, check the condenser for an
accumulation of dirt and lint. Dirty condensers will
reduce the efficiency and capacity of the machine.
Condensers should be cleaned monthly. Remove
the right side and rear panels to gain access to the
condenser. 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 on a monthly
schedule.
j 6. On water cooled units, check the water lines for kinks
or leaks. Kinks c an occur when the machine is moved
back and forth for cleaning or maintenance purposes.
Deteriorated or cracked water lines should be
replaced only by an authorized Taylor mechanic.
Winter Storage
If the place of business is to be c losed 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. Use
air pressure to blow out any water remaining in the
condenser, and then add a liberal amount of permanent type
auto anti-freeze. 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 service for you.
Wrap detachable parts of the freezer such as the beater
assembly and the freezer door. Place these parts 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 attract mice and other vermin.
