    How to fix excessive mix leakage in the rear drip pan of Taylor Kitchen Appliances?
    • J
      jeremiah45Aug 16, 2025
      Excessive mix leakage in the rear drip pan of your Taylor Kitchen Appliance could be due to improper lubrication on the drive shaft o-ring or seal; use an approved food grade lubricant and follow the lubrication procedures. It may also indicate a bad or missing o-ring or seal on the drive shaft, which should be replaced every 3 months. A worn rear shell bearing can also cause this issue, so consider replacing it.

      Chelsey PearsonAug 19, 2025
      If your Taylor Kitchen Appliance isn't freezing in the 'AUTO' position, first, ensure the unit is plugged into the wall receptacle. If it is plugged in, check if the beater motor has tripped; if so, turn the power switch to 'OFF,' let the motor cool, and then resume normal operation. Also, inspect the circuit breaker or fuse and reset the breaker or replace the fuse if necessary.

      raymartinAug 22, 2025
      If your Taylor Kitchen Appliance isn't freezing product in the 'AUTO' position, it might be due to a bound torque rotor, preventing the compressor from running; free the torque rotor. Another cause might be a bent torque arm, which should be replaced. Also, ensure the condensers are cleaned regularly, as dirty condensers can hinder freezing.

      Michele MartinAug 26, 2025
      If no product is dispensed from your Taylor Kitchen Appliances when the draw valve is opened, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure the product is mixed properly by carefully following the mixing directions. Second, check if there's a mix low condition and add mix to the hopper if needed. Third, confirm that the torque arm is correctly installed. Finally, inspect the torque rotor for bends or improper installation; replace or reassemble as necessary.

    Why is the product from my Taylor Kitchen Appliances too stiff?
    • A
      andresrossAug 31, 2025
      If the product from your Taylor Kitchen Appliances is too stiff, check if the torque rotor is bound, causing the compressor to continually run; free the torque rotor. Also, inspect the torque arm; install or replace it if it's bent or missing. Adjust the consistency control knob as needed. Ensure proper mixing of the product by carefully following the directions. Keep the hopper full of mix, as insufficient product in the freezing cylinder can also cause stiffness.
