Preface

The Thermolizer is designed for retail bakeries,
in-store bakeries and donut shops. It features two
individual insulating clear acrylic doors with
stainless steel tops, bottoms and ends, to enable
loading and unloading of 3 screens or bun pans
per door. This minimizes heat and humidity loss.
The air is recycled every 18 seconds.

A thorough understanding of how to operate,
clean, and maintain the Thermolizer safely will
prevent production delays and injuries. The
operator must work safely at all times, read and
follow the instructions in this manual, and heed
all warnings, including the following:

• To avoid electrocution or other injury,

turn off the machine’s main power
before attempting any cleaning,
disassembly, adjustment, or repair.

• To avoid damaging the machine, never

use force to assemble, disassemble,
operate, clean, or maintain it.

• Be careful never to get water or other

materials on the floor. If anything does
get spilled on the floor, mop it up
immediately. Materials on the floor can

cause people to slip or fall, resulting in
serious injury or loss of life.

• To prevent unintentional startup and

possible fire, disconnect the machine
from the power source if there is a local
power outage. When the power is
restored, it is safe to connect the
machine to the power source again.

• To avoid electrocution, make sure that

all electrical cords are not frayed or
cracked and that they do not pass
through any water.

• Make sure that all electrical cords are

routed so that no one will trip over them.

• If water is spilled while cleaning the

proofer, be sure to dry the floor
thoroughly.

• The autofill unit must be turned on to

insure water is contained in the water
box. Check often. Use only soft or
distilled water in the operation of this
thermolizer.

1 Operation

Control Functions

A. HUMIDITY CONTROL: This control

is located inside the control box front
panel and can only be adjusted by a
qualified technician. It controls the
water heating element. Set on high, the
water heat element will remain on
constantly. Set on any setting other than
high, the control will cycle on and off.
Higher numbered settings create a longer
on-cycle and high humidity. The factory
setting is 4.5 on the dial.

B. HEAT CONTROL: This control is

located inside the control box front panel
and can only be adjusted by a qualified
technician. It controls the air-heating
element. The factory setting is: place the
dot on the knob at 11:00 to produce 95 ­110F.

C. CONTROL BOX POWER SWITCH:

Controls the power to the control box.

CAUTION

Do not permit water pan to run out of

water. Check often. Use only soft or

distilled water in the operation of this

proofer.

Operation Instructions

CAUTION

If water is spilled while filling the water
pan, thoroughly dry all surfaces including
the floor. Spilled water may cause serious

injury, loss of life, or damage to

equipment. Water may continue to drip.

To prevent the floor from becoming wet

and slippery, use a pan to collect dripping

water. Do not move the proofer when

water is in the reservoir.

Note: Use only distilled or purified water in
the Thermolizer to avoid build-up in the
water box of minerals and deposits normally
found in tap water.

1. Lift off water reservoir cover and fill water

reservoir (see Figure 3). If necessary, open
the lower door(s) and remove screen(s) or
tray(s) to access the water reservoir. Do not
fill beyond ½” of the top edge. When
finished, replace the cover and doors. If
equipped with the autofill unit, turn on the
water and the filler unit will stop at the
correct water level.

Note: Do not pull the control box out to gain
access to the water reservoir because water
may be spilled when moving the control box.

2. Turn on control box power switch.

3. Wait 25 minutes for the Thermolizer to

reach operating temperature.

warm water.

2. Disconnect from power and remove control

box from cabinet.

3. Remove and clean the screen rack angles,

angle supports, and air duct.

4. Wipe the cabinet interior clean.

5. Special attention should be given to cleaning

the water box (Item 2 of Control Box Assy.,
parts list drawings). Clean the water box as
follows:

a. Turn off water to the Thermolizer

control box.

b. Remove water reservoir cover.

c. Empty the water reservoir pan.
d. Remove water box access cover thumb

screw and rotate access cover to open
position. (see Figure 3)

e. Use a rubber syringe baster to remove

sediment from the water box. Wipe the
inside of the water box with a rag.

f. Add a small amount of water to the

water reservoir pan. Water should flow
freely into the water box. If not, clean
out the water line between the water box
and the water reservoir pan. Check for
blockage at the water box inlet hole first.

g. Close water box access cover and fasten

with thumbscrew.

h. Replace water reservoir cover.

Following are some cleaning charts to help keep track of regularly scheduled cleaning.

3. Cut the bands holding the control box in
place and remove the control box from the
cabinet.

4. Remove and discard the plywood that the
control box was resting on.

5. Inspect the machine to see that no parts are
bent, scratched, or otherwise damaged. If
any damage has occurred in shipping, file a
freight claim with the shipping company
immediately.

filtered water per plumbing codes in your
area. Refer to Section 3 for cleaning

Figure 1

8. If not already done, remove the packing
material from the control box and the put
water reservoir cover in place over the water
reservoir.

9. Place the control box into the cabinet, push
the cord through the hole in the bottom to
the right of the control panel, and close the
cord opening cover plate.

Note: due to vibration in shipping, the door
handles might get out of adjustment. To
adjust door handles: loosen the screws which
fasten the handle to the Plexiglas door, adjust

bottom of the door above when both are
closed, and tighten the screws. If more than
one door handle requires adjustment, start
with the one nearest the top of the proofer and
work down.

12. Turn the control box power switch to the off

position (see Operation Instructions)

13. Connect Thermolizer cord to power source
provided from the ThermoGlaze main power
box. Mail the attached warranty registration
form within ten days of installation.
