Technogel Mixpasto 60 Use And Maintenance Instructions page 33

Manually clean the tank from above. Pay particular attention in cleaning the control shaft of the stirrer and of
the product discharge duct from the tank to the tap.
We recommend using anti-foaming detergents specific for food machines: carefully follow the manufacturer
indications for use and disposal.
Sanitising is an operation similar to washing, but it is to be carried out using warm water and sanitising liquid
detergent for food components.
Follow the manufacturer instructions for the methods of use and dose of the sanitiser. If required, at the end
rinse with water only.
Close the lid and reassemble the tap after sanitising: do not touch with your hands and dry the parts that
come into contact with food.
6.2.2 Cleaning advise
Always accurately clean all parts, specially those that come into contact with food mixes.

carry out all operations with power disconnected

do not use detergents that are not suitable for food use

do not use solvents of any kind

do not use abrasive powder or objects

avoid wetting the internal parts (e.g. motor, etc.)
Remember to carry out the indicated cleaning to always have the best use of the mix with the machine top
performance.
Also keep the external surfaces clean (washing and drying)
6.2.3 Replacing the O-Ring gaskets
All O-Ring gaskets that assure the seal and hygiene of the machine parts coming into contact with the
worked product, must be replaced at least once a year:
- no.1 O-Ring on cap of stirrer rod (fig. 6.3)
- no.2 O-Ring on product extraction tap (fig. 6.7 and 6.8)
- no.1 gasket on tap connection fitting (fig. 6.9)
The gaskets must be manually assembled, making sure not to damage the external toroidal surface of the
gaskets.
Facilitate assembly by slightly lubricating the sliding surfaces of the gaskets with grease for food use.
Only use original gaskets supplied by the manufacturer, that are compatible for food use. The new machine
is fitted with a kit for the first annual maintenance.
6.2.5 Discharging the cooling system
Discharge the cooling water system at the end of season, to prevent damages caused by the water freezing
in the piping during the winter season (if the machine is stored in environments where the temperature may
drop below 0°C).
After having interrupted the mains water flow (see Fig. 3.2):
- disconnect the water inlet pipe
- disconnect the outlet pipe from the relative fitting
Start the machine: the compressor starts and, after a while, causes the opening of the pressure valve of the
external water system.
Blow through the WATER INLET fitting with a compressed air gun, until the water fully flows out of the piping.
Switch-off the machine ad apply the supplied caps on the water fittings.
