Section 7 Important: Operator Checklist
During Cleaning and Sanitizing
ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL HEALTH CODES.
Cleaning and sanitizing schedules are governed
by federal, state, or local regulatory agencies,
and must be followed accordingly. If the unit
has a “Standby mode”, it must not be used in
lieu of proper cleaning and sanitizing
procedures and 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
j 1. Thoroughly clean and sanitize the machine
regularly, including complete disassembly and
brush cleaning.
j 2. Use all brushes supplied 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 sure there is a
generous amount of cleaning solution on the
brush.
j 5. IF LOCAL HEALTH CODES PERMIT THE
USE OF RERUN, make sure the mix rerun is
stored in a sanitized, covered, NSF approved
stainless steel rerun container and used the
following day. DO NOT prime the machine
with rerun. When using rerun, skim off the
foam and discard; then mix the rerun with
fresh mix in a ratio of 50/50 during the day's
operation.
j 6. On a designated day of the week, run the mix
as low as feasible and discard after closing.
This will break the rerun cycle and reduce the
possibility of high bacteria and coliform
counts.
j 7. 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 8. The temperature of the mix in the mix hopper
and walk-in cooler should be below 40_F.
(4.4_C.).
Regular Maintenance Checks
j 1. Replace scraper blades that are nicked or
damaged. Before installing the beater, be
certain that the scraper blades are properly
attached.
j 2. Check the rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive mix leakage in the drive shaft drip
pan) and be certain it is properly cleaned.
j 3. Using a screwdriver and cloth towel, keep the
rear shell bearing and the female hex drive
socket clean and free of lubricant and mix
deposits.
