6. CLEANOUT, DISASSEMBLING AND
REASSEMBLING OF PARTS IN CONTACT WITH
FOOD PRODUCT
IMPORTANT:
Cleanout and sanitization are important operations that must be carried out at the end of every
working day with utmost accuracy, as a rule, in order to guarantee a high quality product and
the observance of all hygienic rules.
Leaving dirt for enough time to dry can significantly increase the risk of stains and marks and
damage to surfaces.
Removing dirt is much easier if done immediately after use and since there is a risk that some
elements containing acid and saline substances can attack surfaces, prolonged soaking is not
recommended.
WARNING
Do not use solvents, alcohol or detergents that can damage the component parts of the
machine or pollute functional production parts.
Never use powder or abrasive cleaning products, scourers or pointed tools when cleaning by hand;
there is a risk of leaving the surfaces opaque or of removing or weakening the protective film on the
surface, scratching it.
Never use metal or synthetic scouring pads under any circumstances to prevent any abrasion or removal
of ferrous parts leading to problems of surface oxidation or weakening.
Do not use detergents containing chlorine or chlorine compounds; using these detergents, which include
bleach, ammonia, hydrochloric acid and scale removers can attack the steel compound used, causing it
to stain or oxidize permanently. Only use recommended detergent/sanitizer, XSAN, since it has been
tested and approved by our laboratories.
At the end of washing and before refitting any parts, always dry them with a clean, soft cloth that is
suitable for use with foods; this is necessary even after a drying cycle in the dishwasher, since any type of
moisture with a high mineral or chlorine content can attack metal surfaces and leave opaque traces.
WARNING
To wash the machine, CATTABRIGA recommends using XSAN sanitizer/detergent.
The use of XSAN makes it possible to optimise the washing and sanitizing process, since it eliminates
two stages in the procedure (that is, one rinse and one washing stage); all in all, using XSAN saves
time, making washing and sanitizing processes easier.
6.1 HOW TO USE XSAN SANITIZER/DETERGENT
CAUTION
All cleaning operations to be carried out when machine is not running and disconnected from
the mains (switch open or plug disconnected from the socket).
Prepare a water-based solution (at a temperature between 45 and 60°C) and XSAN at a concentra-
tion between 1 and 3%, according to water hardness.
Washing/sanitizing by soaking
- Remove larger residues by hand.
- Remove finer residues with a jet of water.
- Soak the parts to be cleaned in the XSAN solution.
- Leave the solution to act for about 10-15 minutes.
- Rinse the parts with care, using plenty of clean drinking water.
