INTRODUCTION

Please read all sections of this manual thoroughly to familiarize yourself with all aspects of the unit.
Like all mechanical products, this machine will require cleaning and maintenance. Besides, dispenser working can be compromised by operator’s mistakes during disassembly and cleaning. It is strongly recommended that personnel responsible for the equipment’s daily operations, disassembly, cleaning, sanitizing and assembly, go through these procedures in order to be properly trained and to make sure that no misunderstandings exist.

INSTALLATION

  1. Remove the corrugate container and packing materials and keep them for possible future use.
    IMPORTANT
    When handling the machine never grasp it by the bowls. The manufacturer refuses all responsibilities for possible damages which may occur through incorrect handling.
  2. Inspect the uncrated unit for any possible damage. If damage is found, call the delivering carrier immediately to file a claim.
  3. Install the unit on a counter top that will support the combined weight of dispenser and product bearing in mind what is stated in the preceding point 1 IMPORTANT warning.
  4. A minimum of 15 cm (6”) of free air space all around the unit should be allowed to guarantee adequate ventilation.
  5. Ensure that the legs are screwed tightly into the base of the machine.
    Replace the standard legs originally installed with the 100 mm (4”) legs whenever they are provided with the unit.
  6. Before plugging the unit in, check if the voltage is the same as that indicated on the data plate. Plug the unit into a grounded, protected single phase electrical supply according to the applicable electrical codes and the specifications of your machine. When the unit has no plug, install a proper grounded plug, in compliance with electrical codes in force in your area, suitable to at least 10 Amp 250 Volt (220-230 Volts 50-60 Hz areas) and 20 Amp 250 Volt (100-115 Volts 50-60 Hz areas) applications. Should you prefer to connect the unit directly to the mains, connect the supply cord to a 2-pole wall breaker, whose contact opening is at least 3 mm. Do not use extension cords.
    Electric Warning Icon ATTENTION
    Failure to provide proper electrical ground according to applicable electrical codes could result in serious shock hazard.
  7. The unit doesn’t come presanitized from the factory. Before serving products, the dispenser must be disassembled, cleaned and sanitized according to this handbook instructions (chapter 5.3 CLEANING AND SANITAZING PROCEDURES).
    IMPORTANT
    Install the dispenser so that the plug is easily accessible.

TO OPERATE SAFELY

  1. Do not operate the dispenser without reading this operator’s manual.
  2. Do not operate the dispenser unless it is properly grounded.
  3. Do not use extension cords to connect the dispenser.
  4. Do not operate the dispenser unless all panels are restrained with screws.
  5. Do not obstruct air intake and discharge openings: 15 cm (6”) minimum air space all around the dispenser.
  6. Do not put objects or fingers in panels louvers and faucet outlet.
  7. Do not remove bowls, augers and panels for cleaning or routine maintenance unless the dispenser is disconnected from its power source.
    Electric Warning Icon ATTENTION
    In case of damages, the power cord must be replaced by qualified personnel only in order to prevent any shock hazard.
  8. Do not pour food product inside the dispenser at a temperature higher than 40°C.

OPERATING PROCEDURES

  1. Clean and sanitize the unit according to the instructions in this manual. See chapter 5.3 CLEANING AND SANITIZING PROCEDURES.
  2. Fill the bowls with product to the maximum level mark. Do not overfill.
    The exact quantity of product (expressed as liters and gallons) is shown by marks on the bowl.
  3. In case of products to be diluted with water, potable water, pour water into bowl first, then add correct quantity of product. In case of natural squashes, it is advisable to strain them, in order to prevent pulps from obstructing the faucet outlet.
  4. Install the covers and check that they are correctly placed over the bowls.
  5. Set the control switches as shown in chapter
    5.1 DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS.
  6. The dispenser must always run with the covers installed to prevent a possible contamination of the product.
  7. Always leave the dispenser on, as the refrigeration stops automatically when the beverage reaches the dispensing temperature.
    The mixing devices will continue to turn.
  8. To maintain a high standard of flavour, keep refrigeration and mixing devices on during the night when beverage is in the bowl.

IMPORTANT
Operate the dispenser with food products only.

5. 1 DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
The dispenser is equipped with the power switch only. When it is set to position I, the power is turned on both to mixing devices and to refrigeration.

5. 2 OPERATION HELPFUL HINTS

  1. The length of time for cooling down the product is governed by many variables, such as ambient temperature and beverage initial temperature.
  2. To shorten product cooling down time and increase productivity, it is advisable to pre-chill the product to be used in the dispenser.
  3. To shorten product cooling down time and increase productivity, the bowl should be refilled after the product level drops lower than half and at the start of each day.
  4. The dispenser must be able to emit heat.
    In case it seems excessive, check that no heating source is close to the unit and air flow through the slotted panels is not obstructed by wall or boxes. Allow at least 15 cm (6”) of free clearance all around the dispenser.
    In any case if the product in the bowls is cold the unit is running properly.
  5. How to reset beverage temperature: to reset beverage temperature please apply to a technician. The proper temperature is preset at the factory.

5. 3 CLEANING AND SANITIZING PROCEDURES
Cleaning and sanitizing of the dispenser are recommended to guarantee the conservation of the best product taste and the highest unit efficiency. This section is a procedural guideline
only and is subject to the requirements of the local Health Authorities.
Prior to the disassembly and cleaning, the machine must be emptied of product.
