Disassembly

BE SURE THE POWER SWITCH IS IN THE
OFF POSITION. Failure to follow this instruction may
result in severe personal injury from hazardous
moving parts.
Step 1
Remove the torque arm, handscrews, freezer door,
torque rotor, beater assembly, scraper blades and
drive shaft from the freezing cylinder. Take these parts
to the sink for cleaning.
Step 2
Remove the front drip tray and the splash shield. Take
these parts to the sink for cleaning.
Step 3
Remove the rear drip pan from the front panel. Note:
If the drip pan is filled with an excessive amount of mix,
it is an indication the drive shaft seal should be
replaced or properly lubricated.

Brush Cleaning

Step 1
Prepare a sink of cleaning/sanitizing solution with an
active chlorine concentrate of 100 - 200 PPM (parts
per million). USE WARM WATER AND FOLLOW THE
MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS.
Make sure all brushes provided with the freezer are
available for brush cleaning.
Step 2
IMPORTANT: Follow the label directions. Too
STRONG of a solution can cause parts damage, while
too MILD of a solution will not provide adequate
cleaning.
Step 3
Remove the o-ring and seal from the drive shaft.
Remove the o-ring and the bearing from the torque
rotor.

Step 4
From the freezer door, remove the ice buster, draw
handle, draw valve, front bearing, and gasket.
Remove the spring and prime plug (self- closing door,
only). Remove all o-rings.
WARNING: On self- closing doors, the draw valve
is under pressure. Apply downward pressure on the
draw valve while removing the draw handle. After the
draw handle is removed, slowly release the pressure
on the draw valve.
Note: To remove o-rings, use a single service towel to
grasp the o-ring, and apply pressure in an upward
direction until the o-ring pops out of its groove. With the
other hand, push the top of the o-ring forward until it
rolls out of the groove and can be removed easily.
Step 5
Thoroughly brush clean all disassembled parts in the
cleaning solution, making sure all lubricant and mix film
is removed. Place all the cleaned parts on a clean, dry
surface to air dry.
Step 6
Return to the freezer with a small amount of cleaning
solution. Brush-clean the rear shell bearing at the back
of the freezing cylinder with the black bristle brush.
Step 7
Wipe clean all exterior surfaces of the freezer.
