CLEANING DISASSEMBLED PARTS

Disassembled parts require complete cleaning, sanitizing
and air drying before assembling. Local and state health
codes dictate the procedure required. Some state health
codes require a four sink process (pre-wash, wash, rinse,
sanitize, air dry), while others require a three sink process
(without the pre-wash step). The following procedures
are a general guideline only. Consult your local and state
health codes for the procedures required in your location.
A. Disassemble all parts. (Refer to Section 2.4 for
the disassembly of machine parts)
B. Place all parts in 90° to 110°F (32°C to 43°C)
mild detergent water and wash thoroughly. Use
the brushes that shipped with the machine to
clean all holes in the front door, fl ights, mix pickup
assembly, etc.
C. Rinse all parts with clean 90° to 110°F (32°C to
43°C) water.
D. Place all parts in a sanitizing solution for at least
1 minute, then remove and let air dry completely
before assembling in machine.

CLEANING THE MACHINE

Cleaning the machine includes washing the hoppers,
freezing cylinders, cup assemblies, shadowbox, ramp, and
carousel. To properly clean the machine, a mild detergent
water, sponges or washcloths, a large brush, and a shop
vac are recommended.
A. CLEANING HOPPER & FREEZING CYLINDER
1. Clean the hoppers with a large brush.
2. Clean the rear seal surfaces on the inside of the
freezing cylinders.
3. Using sanitizing solution and the large barrel
brush provided, sanitize the freezing cylinders by
dipping the brush in the sanitizing solution and
brushing the inside of the freezing cylinders.
4. Wrap the brush in a clean sanitized cloth and
thoroughly dry the freezing cylinders.
B. CLEANING CUP TRANSPORT ASSEMBLIES
1. With the main door open and the power switch
set to the off position (middle position), manually
move the cup assembly so that it can be cleaned.
The assembly will be behind the vending box.
2. Remove the cup shield cover and remove the
cup holder. Do not lose the lock washers when
removing the parts for cleaning.
3. Clean the shield cover and cup holder and clean
the IR sensor.
The IR sensor must be cleaned so it can properly
sense when a cup is present.
4. Install the cup holder and shield.

ASSEMBLING MACHINE

To assemble the machine parts, refer to the following steps:
Total Blend sanitary lubricant, Petrol-Gel sanitary
lubricant, or equivalent must be used when lubrica-
tion of machine parts is specifi ed.
Total Blend can be used in place of two products. It
is used to lubricate parts and also used in place of
spline lubricant. Do not use more than one packet
of Total Blend per freezing cylinder.
The United States Department of Agriculture and
the Food and Drug Administration require that lubri-
cants used on food processing equipment be certi-
fi ed for this use. Use lubricants only in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
