Follow all lubricating procedures as outlined in
Assembly on page 6-1.
On air-cooled machines, check the condenser for
dirt and lint. A dirty condenser will reduce the
efficiency and capacity of the machine. The
condenser should be cleaned monthly with a soft
brush. Never use screwdrivers or other metal
probes to clean between the fins.
Note: For machines equipped with an air filter, it
will be necessary to vacuum-clean the filters
monthly.
On water-cooled machines, check the water lines
for kinks or leaks. Kinks can occur when the
machine is moved back and forth for cleaning or
maintenance. Deteriorated or cracked water lines
should be replaced by a Taylor service technician
only.
Winter Storage
If the place of business is to be closed during the winter
months, it is important to protect the machine 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.
On water-cooled machines, disconnect the water supply.
Relieve pressure on the spring in the water valve. Use air
pressure on the outlet side to blow out any water
remaining in the condenser. This is extremely
important. Failure to follow this procedure may cause
severe damage to the refrigeration system.
Your local Taylor distributor can perform this service for
you.
Wrap detachable parts of the machine (such as the
beater, blades, driveshaft, and freezer door) and place
them in a dry, protected 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 lubricant, which can attract mice
and other vermin.
