Cleaning And Sanitizing Instructions - Hoshizaki F-1501MAJ Instruction Manual

B. Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions
The appliance must be cleaned and sanitized at least twice a year. More frequent
cleaning and sanitizing may be required in some conditions.
• To prevent injury to individuals and damage to the appliance, do not use ammonia
type cleaners.
• Carefully follow any instructions provided with the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions.
• Always wear liquid-proof gloves and goggles to prevent the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions from coming into contact with skin or eyes.
• After cleaning and sanitizing, do not use ice made from the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions. Be careful not to leave any solution on the parts or in the dispenser
unit/ice storage bin.
1. Cleaning Solution
Dilute 9.6 fl. oz. (0.29 l) of Hoshizaki "Scale Away" with 1.6 gal. (6.0 l) of warm water. This
is a minimum amount. Make more solution if necessary. IMPORTANT! For safety and
maximum effectiveness, use the solution immediately after dilution.
2. Cleaning Procedure
1) Close the icemaker water supply line shut-off valve.
2) Turn off the power supply, then remove the front panel. Make sure the power switch is
in the "ON" position, then move the control switch to the "DRAIN" position. Replace the
front panel in its correct position.
3) Turn on the power supply and allow the water system to drain completely.
4) Turn off the power supply, then remove the front and top panels. Move the power switch
to the "OFF" position.
5) Remove all of the ice from the dispenser unit/ice storage bin. WARNING! If on a
dispenser unit, turn off the dispenser unit power supply after dispensing the ice.
6) Remove the spout spring, then open the spout cover. See Fig. 22.
7) Pour the cleaning solution over the extruding head until the evaporator assembly and
the reservoir are full and the solution starts to run through the overflow hose on the
reservoir.
Note: If there is excess scale on the extruding head, fill the evaporator assembly and
reservoir as described above, then use a clamp on the reservoir hose between the
reservoir and evaporator assembly to block flow. Pour additional cleaning solution over
the extruding head until the evaporator assembly is completely full.
8) Close the spout cover and replace the spout spring in its correct position.
9) Allow the icemaker to sit for 10 minutes before operation. If you placed a clamp on the
reservoir hose in step 7, remove it before operation.
