Operator Panel and Controls
The Operator Panel consists of the On/Off Switch, the Temperature Controller with Display and the
Dispense Button.
The On/Off Switch is the main power switch and turns the dispenser power on and off. The switch
illuminates when on.
The Temperature Controller maintains the cabinet temperature and displays the current cabinet
temperature. The dispenser’s controller can also detect an abnormal refrigeration condition. When an
error condition is detected the display will state the error that has occurred.
The Dispenser Button operates both the Dispensing Drum and the Outlet Door. When the Dispense
Button is pressed the Outlet Door moves to the dispensing (open) position and the drum begins to turn
in the hopper. When the desired amount of frozen fries have dispensed into the basket, the Dispense
button is released, the Dispenser Drum stops rotating and the Outlet Door closes.

Start up and Operation
When the dispenser is in place, lock both front casters.
Make sure Power Switch, located on the left side of the operator panel, is turned off.
Assemble the Dispenser (see page 5).
Plug the Power Cord into an approved outlet and turn the Dispenser on.
Note: Turn Dispenser on a minimum of 90 minutes (depending on ambient temperature
conditions) before loading frozen product into the Dispenser. Once the temperature display has
dropped to 10F (-12C) load frozen product into Dispenser and use the Dispenser.
Note: This machine is to be used only for dispensing frozen fries or other approved product.
Any other use may cause injury to personnel or damage to the machine.
The Frozen Fry Dispenser is intended to maintain and dispense frozen fries on demand eliminating the
need for staging full baskets of fries. Dispensing and cooking fries direct from the freezer results in
improved fry quality, consistency and yield.
Do not stage full baskets of fries on the side mount basket rack, if equipped. The side mount
basket rack should be used for empty fry basket storage only.
Loading the Hopper
Note: To achieve optimum fry yield and the
most consistent basket loads, it is important
to use the following technique for loading
frozen fries into the Hopper.
For each bag or box of fries:
1. Remove the bag of fries from the case. Be
careful not to crush the fries.
2. Open the top of the bag or box completely.
(A partially open bag may retain fries.)
3. Hold the opened end of the bag closed with
your hand and lay it in the Hopper with the
opening toward the side opposite of the
Diverter.
4. Release the opened end of the bag or box.
5. Empty the bag into the Hopper by pulling it
evenly toward the diverter. When adding
multiple bags of fries, alternate the
placement of the bag in the Hopper
opposite of the previous bag. The second
bag of fries should be emptied into the
Hopper with the opening toward the
Diverter, and pulling it evenly toward the
Hopper wall opposite the Diverter.
This crisscross loading method assures an
even distribution of fry lengths in the Hopper
and the Baskets
The dispenser hopper holds 36 lbs (16.3 kg)
Hopper capacity may vary depending on the
product.
Warning: Pinch Hazard. Personnel should
take care not to place hands or fingers near
the Drum inside the Hopper while this
machine is in operation. Hands or fingers
could be pinched between the Drum and the
Hopper as the Drum turns.
Note: Do NOT shake or drop fries from the
bag or box into the Hopper, this will result in
unnecessary fry breakage.
Operation
1. Place a basket under the Outlet Door in the
loading position.
2. Press and hold the Dispense Button until
the desired amount of fries are dispensed
into the basket.
3. Release the Dispense Button.
4. Remove the basket.

Daily Closing: Disassembly, Defrost & Cleaning
IMPORTANT! These cleaning instructions
are intended as a guide. Refer to your local,
state, and federal regulations for any
additional instructions and for cleaning
frequency requirements.
Remove all Baskets from the dispense area
and basket rack. Open the Cabinet Door and
remove the Hopper Assembly by lifting the front
of the Hopper up slightly and pulling forward on
assembly.
Remove any unused product from the Hopper
by emptying the product into an approved
storage container. Place the storage container
immediately into a freezer to maintain frozen
product.
Defrost
Because the dispenser employs a cold wall
design, it will be necessary to manually defrost
the cabinet daily.
1. Press the On/Off Switch to the Off position
and unplug the dispenser power cord.
2. With the dispenser off and the remaining
product removed, move the Outlet Door into the
open position
3. Remove the Outlet Door from the mounting
shaft.
4. Lift and remove the Drip Tray and Drip Tray
Spacer.
5. Open the Cabinet Door and allow 1 hour to
defrost.
Caution: Never use a sharp object to remove
frost build-up. Never drill or otherwise
puncture cabinet walls or top.
Take the removable components from the
Dispenser to the washing area. Wash them
with a hot solution of detergent and water.
Rinse each component with clear water and
sanitize (wash/rinse/sanitize) (HCS). Allow
components to air dry.
NOTE: The removable components are NOT
dishwasher safe.
Move the Dispenser out from the wall to clean
behind and underneath it.
Do NOT roll the dispenser to the back sink for
cleaning, this will cause unnecessary wear on
the dispenser.
Once the cabinet is free of frost, wipe down the
internal and external of the cabinet with a hot
solution of detergent and water. Rinse with
clear water and repeat wipe down with
sanitizing solution (HCS) and allow to air dry.
Warning: Do not spray the Dispenser with
Liquid or Solvents. The Dispenser does not
provide a water tight seal. Contaminants
and moisture may get into sensitive
components.
Dry all components and reassemble the
Dispenser (see page 4). Move Dispenser back
into place.
Notice: The dispenser must be accessible
from all sides for routine cleaning and
maintenance. A minimum of 1” (26 mm)
clearance on both sides and 2” (50 mm)
behind the dispenser is recommended.

Temperature Controller Operation and Menu Structure
The Space Saver Frozen Fry Dispenser uses an electronic temperature controller to operate the
refrigeration system. It directly controls the compressor. The following sections will cover basic
operation and programming of this controller.
Displaying and changing set point temperature
The set point is the temperature at which the refrigeration system will turn off. The recommended set
point is 0 degrees Fahrenheit (-18 degrees Celsius). The set point can be viewed and adjusted with the
SET key. Press and immediately release the SET key to view the current set point. To change the set
point, press and hold the SET key for 4 seconds or until the display is flashing. The set point can be
adjusted by using the up and down arrow keys. The new set point is stored by pressing the SET key
again
Locking the Controller
The controller keys may be locked by pressing both the up and down keys for 3 seconds. The display
will flash PoF. The keys are now locked and cannot be used to change any parameter (the set point is
still visible by pressing the set key). To unlock the keys, once again press both the up and down keys
for 3 seconds. The display will show Pon and the keys will be unlocked.

Error Detection
Note: Errors relating to the refrigeration systems, while requiring corrective action, will not
disable the fry dispensing portion of the equipment.
The temperature controller is capable of detecting conditions that fall outside normal operation. In such
cases, the controller will display an alarm message to warn the operator that corrective action should
be taken. The alarm consists of a flashing message on the controller display. The flashing message will
remain until the error is corrected. Some alarm conditions may be easily fixed, while others may require
the attention of a qualified service technician. The chart below provides an explanation of each error
message and what action may be needed to correct the problem.

Refrigeration System
General Operation
The RAM Space Saver employs a cold wall
system. Through the refrigeration process,
heat is transferred to the condensing unit at the
bottom of the cabinet, where it is expelled to the
surrounding outside air. It is extremely
important to allow unrestricted airflow for the
refrigeration process to function properly.
A minimum of 1.0” (26 mm) clearance on both
sides, 2.0” (50 mm) behind the dispenser and
24” (61 cm) to the ceiling is recommended.
The temperature control for the RAM Space
Saver is capable of detecting conditions that fall
outside of normal operation. In such cases, the
controller will generate and display an error to
warn the operator that an abnormal condition
exists and corrective action may need to be
taken. Some error conditions are easily fixed,
while others may require the attention of a
qualified service technician.
See pages 10-12 for a list of error codes and a
troubleshooting guide.
CAUTION: Only trained and/or qualified
personnel, licensed in refrigeration, should
perform service to the refrigeration systems
of this equipment.
The set point or turn off temperature is the
temperature the refrigeration system will
attempt to maintain inside the cabinet. The
default set point temperature is 0°F (-18°C),
and has a range of -10°F to 20° F(-23°C to -
7°C). The set point can be changed using the
Set Button on the Temperature Controller.
Cabinet temperature is displayed on the
Temperature Controller during normal
operation.
Defrost
Because the dispenser employs a cold wall
design, it will be necessary to manually defrost
the cabinet daily. First, remove the product.
Turn the On/Off Switch. Remove Baskets,
Hopper, Outlet Door, Drip Tray and Drip Tray
Divider. Open the Cabinet Door and allow 1
hour to defrost.
Caution: Never use a sharp object to remove
frost build-up. Never drill or otherwise
puncture cabinet walls or top.
Wipe the cabinet dry and sanitize when defrost
is complete.
Required Maintenance
Daily:
Shut off, clean, defrost and inspect cabinet.
(see page 8)
Monthly:
Clean and inspect the condenser filter.
Replace as necessary.
Every 3 months, or as needed as determined
by environmental conditions:
Inspect the door gasket for proper sealing.
Adjust door hinges and/or replace gasket if
needed.
Clean the condenser coils, located behind
the condenser filter. (See below.)
Cleaning the Condenser Filter and Coil
Monthly cleaning of the condensing unit filter will
aid the heat transfer characteristics of the
refrigeration system, increase its efficiency, and
extend the life of the compressor.
Remove the front louvered panel by removing the
retaining screw. Lift and remove the louvered
panel. Slide the condenser filter to the left and
remove.
The filter can be cleaned in warm soapy water
(HCS). Rinse and shake off the excess water.
Replace the filter and access panel.
Every 3 months clean the condenser coils. The
coils are located behind the condenser filter. The
condenser coils should be cleaned with a vacuum
or a soft brush.
Failure to keep the condenser filter and coil
clean and clear of obstructions could result in
temperature loss and damage to the
compressor and may void the warranty.
Warning: Keep ventilation openings in the
appliance enclosure, particularly in the
back-bottom panel, clear of obstruction.
