Attention is required in order to avoid serious per- sonal injury. The message that follows the symbol This manual provides the operator with information contains important information about safety.
SECTION 1 DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS DESCRIPTION The U412 is an ultra high capacity fl oor model shake machine. It is equipped with fully automatic controls to provide a uniform product. This manual is designed to assist qualifi ed service personnel and operators with instal- lation, operation and maintenance of the U412 machine.
1.3 MODES OF NORMAL OPERATION Following are details of the operational modes on the U412. NOTE: The preset amounts, times, and temperatures listed below are references to actual settings on the IntelliTec control. Refer to Table 1-1 on page 6 for details on each setting.
Page 12
The “Standby Mode” maintains product quality during slow times, while minimizing reactivation time. This mode lasts for a preset time (Stb Time). Once this time has been reached without user interruption, the control moves into the “Sleep 1 Mode”. Refer to Figure 1-4 for a graphical representation of the “Standby Mode”.
H. CLEAN MODE When the CLEAN button is pressed, freezing cylinder refrigeration stops, the drive motor starts and will run for 20 minutes and a 5 minute countdown timer is displayed. After the time has elapsed, an optional audible alarm will sound if this accessory has been installed.

Error Code 5 - Freezing Cylinder Sensor Error Code 6 - Hopper Sensor (single hopper machines) The Freezing Cylinder Sensor Error (E5) indicates The Hopper Sensor Error (E6) will not occur on a failure of the barrel sensor or an extreme out of the U412 machine.
Page 57
Error Code 11 - Low Temperature The Low Temperature Error (E11) occurs when the temperature of the gas refrigerant at the freezing cylinder sensor falls below -20°F. Although the machine will not shut down, the active freezing cycle will immediately end. This error usually occurs when the machine continues to run in a low mix condition or if the machine runs out of mix.
