3.3 SANITIZING
Sanitizingmust be doneafter thefreezeris cleanand just
before the freezer is filled with mix. Sanitizing the night
before isnot effective. However,youshouldalwaysclean
the freezer and parts after using it.
WARNING
THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRI-
CULTUREAND THEFOODAND DRUGADMINIS-
TRATION REQUIRE THATALL CLEANINGAND
SANITIZING SOLUTIONS USED WITH FOOD
PROCESSING EQUIPMENT BE CERTIFIED FOR
THIS USE.
Whensanitizing the freezer,refer to localsanitaryregula-
tions for applicable codes and recommended sanitizing
productsandprocedures.Thefrequencyofsanitizingmust
comply with local health regulations. Mix sanitizer ac-
cording to manufacturer’s instructions to provide a 100
parts per million strength solution. Mix sanitizer in quan-
titiesofno less than 2gallons of 120°F water.Allow sani-
tizer to contact the surfaces to be sanitized for 5 min-
utes.Anysanitizer must beusedonly in accordancewith

During normal operation it is not necessary to be overly
concerned about capacity. But, if there is an order for six
products at one time, each using 9 ounces of product, it
should be considered as 54 ounces of product. Approxi-
mately two minutes must be allowed for this drawing. Af-
ter a while most operators will sense, or feel, when the
freezerisbeginning to fallbehind, and will slowup on the
rate of draw so as not to exceed capacity.
3.5MIXINFORMATION
Mix can vary considerably from one manufacturer to
another.Differencesintheamountofbutter-fatcontentand
quantity and quality of other ingredients have a direct
bearingonthefinishedfrozenproduct.Achangeinfreezer
performance that cannot be explained by a technical
problem may be related to the mix.
Proper product serving temperature varies from one
manufacturer's mix to another. Mixes should provide a
satisfactory product in the 17° to 20°F range.
When checking the temperature, stir the thermometer in
thefrozenproduct toreadthetruetemperature.
Mix does not improve with age. Old mix, or mix that has
been stored at too high a temperature, can result in a
finished product that is less than satisfactory from the
appearanceandtastestandpoint.Toretardbacteriagrowth
indairybasedmixes,thebeststoragetemperaturerange
is between 36° to 40°F.
3.6 OPERATION OF MIX PUMP
The PUMP switch is located on the front of the freezer.
When the pump switch is placed in the ON position, the
mix pump motor will be actuated to pump mix into the
freezer cylinder. When the set pressure is reached, the
mix pump will shut off automatically. When the switch is
placedintheOFFposition,themixpumpwillbeinopera-
tive. NOTE
The mix pump motor is equipped with an internal
overloadthat will "kick-out"when the motoris over-
loaded.Consultthe trouble shooting sectionfor
correctiveinformation. Theinternal overloadwill
automaticallyresetaftercooling.Ifthecondition con-
tinues,contacta qualified service person.
Thepumphosemustberepositionedevery1-2weeksor
60 hours of operation. Failure to comply will result in
reduced mix pump liquid capacity, dispense stoppage,
popping, and possible mix pump hose leakage.
Find a system that works for you. Operating until hose
breaks shortens pump life, causes downtime and in-
creases cleaning costs.
A. Mix Operation: The peristaltic mix pump contains
onecontinuousmixpumphose.Whenlookingatthe
face of the peristaltic mix pump, the left side of the
hose is the suction or pickup. The right side of the
hose is the discharge. Mix is drawn up the suction
sideof thehoseand transferredthru thedischarge
side to the freezer. Figure 15.
C. Place the mix pump switch, located on the front of
the freezer, in the ON position. Immediately open
the spigot and let approximately 8 ounces of liquid
mix with sanitizing solution drain out of the spigot.
D. Closethe spigotand open theair bleed valveon the
frontdoor by pushingthe valvein and holding.Allow
the barrel to fill until the mix level is 1/2 inch below
airbleed valve,thenrelease valveand pullclosed to
lock in place.
E. Start the compressor and drive by placing the
CLEAN-OFF-SERVEswitch intheSERVE position.
F. The productwill beready toserveafterthecompres-
sorand drive havecycled off,or in approximately12
minutes.
G. Therefrigeration is automaticallyactuated whenthe
spigot is opened. For normal dispensing, open the
spigot no more then 90°. (This is when the handle
knob is pointed directly away from the front door.)
Thispositionprovidesexcellentcontroloverthe prod-
uct and aids in making desired shaped portions.
Close spigot completely after dispensing.
It is possible to overdraw if rate of draw is exceeded for
extended periods. If the freezer is overdrawn, the result
will be a soft product and air pops. To draw a quart prop-
erly, it is necessary to use a little more than one minute.
