We do not recommend to
connect the machine through
adaptors, multiple plugs and/or
extensions. If necessary, use
only materials that conform to
the safety rules in force, as for
the current intensity up to what
indicated on the plate (pic. 4
pag. 19).
Place the machine so as to
avoid any heat source to be
close to the grids. Verify that
there is a free space of 25 cm
at least around the machine
(pic. 5 pag. 99).
After connecting the machine to

grids (pic. 6 pag.99).
Right usage
Before switching on the
machine, it is necessary to
clean it as indicated in the
“Cleaning” paragraph.
Cleaning
Cleaning is very important for
the life and maintenance of the
machine; we recommend to
periodically clean the parts that
are in contact with the product
using the following procedure.
Warning!
Switch off the main switch
and disconnect the power
plug (pic. 7 pag. 99) before
starting any operation.
Use a solution of cold water
and sodium hypochlorite
(bleach) with a 10 grams (1/2
spoon) for 1 liter of water ratio.
Rinse with lukewarm water.
Warning! A greater quantity
of beach could damage the
material of the auger.
Warning! If the plastic parts
are washed in the
dishwashing machine, verify
that the temperature is not
higher than 85°C or 185°F,
because they could be
damaged.
Do not use any abrasive
powder.
Tank cleaning procedure
See the picture at the end of
this manual.
• Empty the tanks by opening
the outlets and blocking
them (pic. 8 pag. 99),
moving the little letter from
the left to the right.
• Remove the lamp (pic. 9
pag. 99), pour water in the
tanks and then empty them.
• Remove the auger ring nut
(pic. 10 and 11 pag. 99).
• Remove the tank
unscrewing the hooks grips
(pic. 12 pag. 99), if present,
and opening the hooks (pic.
13 pag. 99); lift the tank as
shown in pic. 14 and 15
pag. 99.
• Unscrew the ring nut (pic.
16 pag. 99) in order to
remove the vertical auger
(pic. 17 pag. 99).
• Remove the horizontal
auger; this way the inox
side of the tank is
completely open and ready
to be cleaned (pic. 18 and
19 pag. 99).
• Remove the outlet (pic. 20,
21, 22, 23 pag. 100) and
the tank gasket (pic. 24
pag. 100):
• Remove the lever cover
(pic. 20 pag. 100) by
pushing “PUSH”
downward; and remove
the lever (pic. 21 pag.
100);
• Rotate the ring nut
clockwise (pic. 22 e 23
pag. 100) and pull the
outlet.
• Dip the dismantled parts in
the solution of water and
bleach.
• Wash and dry.
• Wet the gasket before
inserting it in place (pic. 24
pag. 100), be careful to
place the gasket joint in one
of the back corners of the
tank in the proper
allocation.
• Reassemble everything.
• When you put the tank back
in its place verify that the
low tension contact wires
are in the guides of the
terminal board. If they are
not, the lamp and the
augers will not work (pic. 25
pag. 100).
• Connect the machine to the
power supply.
Warning!
Any time the covers (lamp)
are removed, for security
reasons, the augers and the
cooling system will stop
working.
Condenser cleaning
procedure
Remove the side panel of the 2
or 3 tanks machine, or the back
panel of the one tank machine
by unscrewing the screws on
the bottom and clean the
radiator with a soft brush or (if
possible) with compressed air.

ENGLISH
Outlet restriction
First Class has a new
accessory called Restriction
(pic. 28 pag. 100), it is a
shaped piece that is applied on
the ending part of the
transparent tank outlet. It has
the following advantages:
• The product, liquid (clod
drink) or semi-liquid (low
density slush), is canalized
directly in the glass;
• The restriction is easy to
pull out, therefore, it is
possible to easy wash the
ending part of the outlet
without having to dismantle
the whole transparent tank,
with a consequent decrease
of the machine cleaning
times. In summary, the only
part which is not
refrigerated, where an
accumulation of the product
is more likely to happen,
can be now removed and
washed.
This restriction has some
gaskets (O-ring) that must be
wet with water before inserting
them on the outlet terminal part.
This is to make the introduction
easier and to avoid that O-ring
goes outside their proper
locations.
On the restriction there is the
image of an arrow and of a
glass that, while inserting it,
must face the operator.
First Class controls
and signals
Lamp light On / Off Intensity
regulation
The light of the lamp can be
turned on and off by pressing
the button; if you keep the
button pressed and at the
same time you press the or
buttons, it is possible to
increase or decrease the light
intensity; if you keep the
button pressed, the display will
signal the light status. It will turn
off if the pressure of the button
caused the light to be turned off
and it will show a number that
indicates the level of the lamp
light intensity (2 min - 9 max).
Operator security
If you open the tank lifting the
lamp, the augers will stop.
Keyboard, augers and cooling
system block
It is possible to block the
keyboard. You unblock or block
the buttons by lifting the lamp
and pressing the and
buttons at the same time; the
block status is signaled on the
display through the decimal
point lighting.
For technical reason the
keyboard is unlocked when the
machine is switched off.
Gear electronic stop bypass
As you already know, for
security reasons, when a tank
is open, the augers stop
turning. However, the augers
stop can be also caused by a
malfunctioning of 1 and/or 2
contacts, or by the accidental
lost of one of the contact during
the cleaning phase; in this
case, it is possible to activate
the electronic bypass function
by pressing the granita-cold
drink selection button until
the augers start turning again.
In this situation, if you lift the
cover, the augers keep on
turning and the keyboard block
is deactivated; this is why the
electronic bypass is to be
considered only as a temporary
remedy and not as a definitive
solution which is, instead, the
substitution of the defective
contact or the installation of the
lost one.
Once the contact has been
substituted or installed again,
use the following procedure in
order to deactivate the
electronic bypass:
• Lift the cover: the augers go
on turning;
• Stop the augers pressing the
button;

- 23 -
ENGLISH
• If you press the button,
press the button: the
augers will turn;
• Wait for the augers to stop,
and then release the two
buttons;
• Replace the cover: the
auger will start moving
again.
System has been reset.
Self-diagnostics
Consult the Problem Solving
Section.
Configuration memory
All the functioning modes and
the regulations set are
registered in a non-volatile
memory which is active even
without power; therefore, when
you switch on the machine, the
tank keeps the configuration it
had when you switched it off, a
part from the keyboard lock (as
already said).
inimum level signal
All machines are endowed with
a probe that detects the product
minimum level in the tanks.
When the product is below this
level, the light of the lamp starts
blinking. If the product level
does not change, the light will
stop blinking after a minute.
How to start the
production of slush,
sherbets or cold drinks
Clean the machine as
described in the previous
paragraph.
Remove the covers and pour
the mix in the tanks.
Warning: When switching on
the machine, the poured
product must not be lower
than 10 °C in order to allow a
correct calibration of the
electronic kit.
Switch on the main switch (see
pic- fig. 7-pag. 99 at the end of
this manual).
Switch on the augers switch
.
Press the button in order
to select “slush” (slush led
lighting ) or “cold drink”
(cold drink led lighting).
In “slush” mode, in order to
increase the product density,
use the button, in order to
decrease it, use the button.
In “cold drink” mode, in order to
increase the product
temperature, use the button,
in order to decrease it, use the
button.
Here you are the table with the
correspondence between the
values on the display while in
“cold drink” mode and the °C/°F
degrees.
In order to turn on the lamp
light, press the button.
Warning: in order to have
slush, sherbets or cold drink,
you need a small quantity of
sugar per liter. The
recommended quantity is
generally reported in the
usage instructions. In case of
natural products, we suggest
to use a quantity that goes
from 12 and 22%.
If the horizontal auger is
blocked because of ice blocks
due to a lack of sugar or to
other reasons, such as foreign
bodies in the tank, the vertical
auger can undergo a break.
Warning: If the temperatures
exceed 35°C Elmeco is not
responsible for the
refrigerator performance
(that will be slower) and for
the correspondence between
the temperature selected on
the electronic board and the
drink temperature.
Timer defrost
(optional)
See the pictures at the end of
this manual.
“Timer defrost" function is
optional.
The machine is endowed with a
clock timer that, if properly
regulated, changes the "slush"
function in "cold drink" and
viceversa. This function grants
a cold product with a 5 °C
temperature (+/-1°C), even
during the night (Night Mode),
with a great advantage
especially for milk-based
products.
The Timer Defrost function is
not activated on the machine:

FCW installation (water
cooling system)
If the First Class you bought is
endowed with the water cooling
system, it is necessary to follow
these instructions.
On the machine front side
(outlet side)
There are some water exit (left)
and entrance pipes (right) as
shown in the pic. f .
The quantity of water
necessary for the functioning
can change according to the
product cooling phases, with
higher values when starting the
slush production and values
that are close to zero when you
want to keep the slush. We
therefore recommend to
connect the machine to the
water network with the
maximum capacity, thus the
pressure switch valve (pic. g) in
the machine will regulate the
flux according the real
necessity.
Important:
It is not possible to connect the
FCW water entrance with the
input of another machine based
on a water cooling system
(series).
It is not possible to connect
several machines based on the
water cooling system on the
same outlet.

Cotter pin substitution
If the machine works but the
augers do not turn, it is possible
that the cotter pin, (item 35 of
the exploded view at pag. 95)
that connects the gear motor to
the transmission shaft, broke
down.
Disconnect the power
electric cable
After removing the back and
side panels, you can see the
breakdown trying to lift the ring
that fix the vertical auger (item
28 of the exploded view pag.
95). It can happen that it is
blocked or that, if you lift it, it
carries away the transmission
shaft with it (item 29 of the
exploded view pag. 95).
In the first case, it is necessary
to control that the transmission
shaft base is as high as the
gear motor (exit shaft). The lift
pin could be in the hole of the
gear motor slow shaft but it
should be deformed or broken
(see pic .a)
In the second case, the hole in
the gear motor should be
completely empty and some
remnants of the split pin will
certainly lie in the machine.
It is therefore necessary to
install a new split pin.
Place the transmission shaft so
as its hole is aligned with the
one present on the gear motor
exit shaft; it should be evident
when they are aligned;
Insert the split pin as shown in
the pic. c;
Verify that the head of the split
pin, in its rotation, does not
touch the gear motor and
respects a minimum distance.
Warning: do not reuse, in any
case, the old split pin;
With the help of a pliers, fold
the two ends of the split pin
downward as indicated by the
arrows in the pic. d;
Then, with a nippers, cut the
extremities in excess in order to
avoid a contact with the gear
motor during the rotation (see
pic. e).
