the switch is in the ON position, the machine
operates in the freezing mode. When the switch
is in the CLEAN position, all refrigeration stops
and the auger starts rotating.
C.
ADD MIX Light
The ADD MIX light fl ashes to alert the operator
to a low mix condition. It does so by monitoring
the mix level in the hopper. When the ADD MIX
light is fl ashing, refi ll hopper immediately.
Failure to refi ll hopper immediately may result in
operational problems.
D.
Diagnostic Light
The Diagnostic Light is on during defrost mode
and fl ashes if an error occurs. The light fl ashes
once if there is a compressor error. There are two
quick fl ashes if there is an auger error. And there
are three quick fl ashes if the machine is left in
clean mode for more than 20 minutes. Refer to
the troubleshooting section for details.
E.
Front Door Safety Switch
The front door safety switch prevents the auger
from turning when the front door is removed. The
switch is open when the door is not in place and
closed when the door is properly installed.
3.3 SANITIZING
Sanitizing must be done after the machine is cleaned and
just before the hopper is fi lled with mix. Sanitizing the night
before is not effective. However, you should always clean
the machine and parts after each use.
The United States Department of Agriculture and
the Food and Drug Administration require that all
cleaning and sanitizing solutions used with food
processing equipment be certifi ed for this use.
When sanitizing the machine, refer to local sanitary regu-
lations for applicable codes and recommended sanitizing
products and procedures. The frequency of sanitizing
must comply with local health regulations.
Mix sanitizer according to manufacturer's instructions to
provide a 100 parts per million (ppm) strength solution and
check the solution with chlorine test strips. Mix sanitizer
in quantities of no less than 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of 90°
to 110°F (32° to 43°C) water. Allow sanitizer to contact
the surfaces to be sanitized for 5 minutes. Any sanitizer
must be used only in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
CAUTION
Do not allow sanitizer to remain in contact with
stainless steel parts for prolonged periods. Pro-
longed contact of sanitizer with machine may cause
corrosion of stainless steel parts.

NOTE
Rev.1
In general, sanitizing may be conducted as follows:
A.
Prepare Stera-Sheen Green Label Sanitizer
or equivalent according to manufacturer's
instructions to provide a 100 ppm strength solution.
Mix the sanitizer in quantities of no less than
2 gallons of 90° to 110°F (32° to 43°C) water.
Check the strength of the sanitizing solution. Use
a chlorine test strip and color chart to make sure
the solution has 100 ppm. Any sanitizer must be
used only in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
B.
Pour the sanitizing solution into the hopper and
place the switch in the CLEAN position. Check
for leaks.
C.
Clean sides of hopper and underside of hopper
cover using a soft bristle brush dipped in the
sanitizing solution.
D.
After fi ve minutes, place a bucket under the spigot
and open spigot to drain most sanitizing solution.
Leave a small amount of the sanitizing solution
in the freezing cylinder. Place the switch in the
OFF (middle) position.
E.
Collect the remaining sanitizing solution in a cup
and test the chlorine contents with a new test strip.
A reading of 100 ppm or more is acceptable.
If the reading is less than 100 ppm, sanitize the
machine again.
If the reading is less than 100 ppm after sanitizing
the second time, disassemble and wash the
machine again.
3.4 FREEZE DOWN AND OPERATION
This section covers the recommended operating proce-
dures for the safe operation of the machine.
A.
Sanitize just prior to use.
B.
Place the switch in the OFF (middle) position.
C.
Fill the hopper with mix.
D.
Open spigot and drain a small amount of mix to
remove any remaining sanitizer.
E.
Place the switch in the ON position.
After the drive motor starts, there is a delay before
the compressor starts.
F.
After 8 to 12 minutes the product will be at
consistency and ready to serve. Freeze down
time may vary depending on the type of product
used and the starting product temperature.
G.
To dispense, pull the spigot handle down to open
the spigot.
