3.3 DISASSEMBLY OF MACHINE PARTS
WARNING
Moving machinery can grab, mangle and dismem-
ber. Place the Main Freezer Power Off/On switch in
the OFF position before disassembling for cleaning
or servicing.
Before using the machine for the fi rst time, complete
machine disassembly, cleaning and sanitizing proce-
dures need to be followed. Routine cleaning intervals
and procedures must comply with the local and state
health codes. Inspection for worn or broken parts should
be made at every disassembly of the machine. All worn
or broken parts should be replaced to ensure safety to
both the operator and the customer and to maintain good
machine performance and a quality product. Check the
wear line on the auger fl ights on a regular basis (Fig.
3-3) and replace as needed. Frequency of cleaning must
comply with the local health regulations.
