Operator Checklist

During Cleaning and Sanitizing

Cleaning and sanitizing schedules are governed by your 

state or local regulatory agencies and must be followed 

accordingly. The following checkpoints should be 

stressed during the cleaning and sanitizing operations.

Important! 

We recommend cleaning and sanitizing 

every 120 days.

Troubleshooting Bacterial Count





Thoroughly clean and sanitize the machine 

regularly, including complete disassembly and 

brush cleaning.





Use all brushes supplied for thorough cleaning. 

The brushes are specially designed to reach all 

product passageways.





Use the black bristle brush to thoroughly clean the 

rear shell bearing located at the rear of the 

freezing cylinder. Make sure there is a generous 

amount of cleaning solution on the brush.





Using a screwdriver and a cloth towel, keep the 

rear shell bearing and the female hex drive socket 

clean and free of lubricant and product deposits.





Properly prepare the cleaning and sanitizing 

solutions. Read and follow the label directions 

carefully. Too strong of a solution may damage the 

parts and too weak of a solution will not do an 

adequate job of cleaning or sanitizing.





Clean and sanitize the syrup lines regularly to 

prevent syrup residue build-up that would restrict 

the proper flow of syrup.





On a regular basis, take a brix reading to ensure a 

consistent quality product.

Regular Maintenance Checks





Replace scraper blades that are nicked, 

damaged, or worn down.





Before installing the beater, make sure that the 

scraper blades are properly attached over the 

pins.





Check the rear shell bearing for signs of wear 

(excessive product leakage from the rear drip 

pans to the front drip tray).





Dispose of O-rings or seals if they are worn, torn, 

or fit too loosely, and replace with new ones.





Follow all lubricating procedures as outlined in 

Assembly.





Check the condenser for an accumulation of dirt 

and lint. A dirty condenser will reduce the 

efficiency and capacity of the machine. The 

condenser should be cleaned 

monthly

 by 

removing and cleaning the poly-flo filter.

Winter Storage

If the place of business is to be closed during the winter 

months, it is important to protect the freezer by following 

certain precautions, particularly if the building is subject 

to freezing conditions. 

Disconnect the freezer from the main power source to 

prevent possible electrical damage.

Your local Taylor distributor can perform this service for 

you.

Wrap detachable parts of the freezer such as the beater, 

scraper blades, drive shaft, and freezer door. Place these 

parts in a protected, dry place. Rubber trim parts and 

gaskets can be protected by wrapping them with 

moisture-proof paper. All parts should be thoroughly 

cleaned of dried mix or lubrication, which attract mice and 

other vermin.

Note:

It is recommended that an authorized service 

technician perform winter storage draining to ensure all 

water has been removed. This will guard against freezing 

and rupturing of the components.

ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL HEALTH CODES.
