Carburetor Assembly Your new freezer uses a metering device, known as a carburetor, to feed the proper ratio of mix and air into the freezing cylinder. For products such as dairy based shake mixes, the proper mix to air ratio is generally accepted to be two parts mix to one part air.
Page 8
Computing Overrun (cont.) Draw a heaping cup of frozen product that contains no air pockets. Note: Use a spatula or other device to help fill the cup completely. Avoid tamping the cup as this artificially reduces overrun. Use a straight edge to scrape off excess product flush with the rim of the cup and weigh the cup. Subtract the cup weight and use the overrun formula to determine overrun.
Mix Low Function (cont.) buzzer is out of the circuit and the light will illuminate fully again. After the 10-minute cycle the mix out safety func- tion is activated making the unit inoperable. The machine is placed into the standby mode to prevent any damage to the machine from running dry of product.
Page 10
Product Consistency Adjustment (cont.) When making adjustments to a thicker (colder) setting, dispense approximately 16 ounces (1/2 liter) of product and recheck consistency after the compressor has cycled off. If the consistency is still not correct, repeat steps 2 and 3. "Standby"...
Page 11
Consistency Control - Overview (cont.) In the “standby” mode the control board senses the temperature of the product in the barrel. The drive motor is cycled on time only. It will operate for 2 minutes ON then 18 minutes OFF as long as it is in “standby”. The com- pressor and drive motor are cycled independently for the barrel in the “standby”...
CARE AND CLEANING Note: Each time the freezer is disassembled, all internal freezer components must be thoroughly washed, scoured, and sanitized using procedures recommended by your local health department. In lieu of local health department recommendations, use a three compartment sink; one compartment to wash parts in detergent, one compartment to rinse, and one to sanitize.
Page 13
Daily Cleaning Procedure (cont.) Note: The best way to remove an “O” Ring is to first wipe off all of the lubricant using a clean paper towel. Pinch the “O” Ring upward with a dry towel between your index finger and thumb. When a loop is formed in the “O” Ring, roll it out of the groove with your other thumb.
Page 14
Sanitizing Carburetor and Valve Components (cont.) Slide the valve plunger spring over the small end of the valve plunger and, using another clean piece of paper toweling, pick up the valve plunger at the outlet end and insert plunger and spring into the valve body (figure Q).
Page 15
Sanitizing and Refilling (cont.) Watch the product flowing out of the dispensing valve and close the valve when the sanitizer remaining in the cylinder has been purged by the new mix. Use a clean piece of paper toweling to insert the sanitized carburetor assembly into the inlet hole in the hopper (figure V).
Page 16
Cleaning Following Complete Disassembly of Unit (cont.) IMPORTANT: After disassembly, thoroughly scour each part of the freezer in a warm mild detergent solution including the inside of the freezing cylinder and the mix storage hopper. Rinse each part with clear water. Prepare a minimum of 3-1/2 gallons (13 liters) of sanitizing solution (Divorsol CX or equiva- lent) following the manufacturer's instructions.
Page 17
Reassembly (cont.) Disassemble the carburetor assembly and remove the O-Rings. Wash and sanitize all parts. Reinstall and lubricate the O-Rings and slip on the outer tube if equipped.
