This machine is designed for indoor use only.
DO NOT install the machine in an area where
a water jet could be used to clean or rinse the machine.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
electrical shock.
Water Connections
(Water Cooled Units Only)
An adequate cold water supply must be provided with
a hand shut-off valve. On the underside rear of the
base pan, two 3/8” I.P.S. (for single-head units) or two
1/2” I.P.S. (for double-head units) water connections
for inlet and outlet have been provided for easy
hook-up. 1/2” inside diameter water lines should be
connected to the machine. (Flexible lines are
recommended, if local codes permit.) Depending on
local water conditions, it may be advisable to install a
water strainer to prevent foreign substances from
clogging the automatic water valve. There will be only
one water “in” and one water “out” connection for both
single-head and double-head units. DO NOT install a
hand shut-off valve on the water “out” line! Water
should always flow in this order: first, through the
automaticwatervalve;second,throughthe
condenser; and third, through the outlet fitting to an
opentrapdrain.
Electrical Connections
Each freezer requires one power supply for each data
label. Check the data label(s) on the freezer for fuse,
circuit ampacity and electrical specifications. Refer to
the wiring diagram provided inside of the electrical box,

The model 750 air cooled unit requires a minimum of
6” (152 mm) of clearance on both sides and 0” in the
rear of the unit. The model 751, 754, 774 and 794 units
require 3” on all sides. This will allow for adequate air
flow across the condenser(s). Failure to allow
adequate clearance can reduce the refrigeration
capacity of the freezer and possibly cause permanent
damage to the compressor.

Compressor Warranty Disclaimer
The refrigeration compressor(s) on this machine are
warranted for the term indicated on the warranty card
accompanying this machine. However, due to the
Montreal Protocol and the U.S. Clean Air Act
Amendments of 1990, many new refrigerants are
being tested and developed, thus seeking their way
into the service industry. Some of these new
refrigerantsarebeingadvertisedasdrop-in
replacements for numerous applications. It should be
noted that, in the event of ordinary service to this
machine’s refrigeration system, only the refrigerantspecified on the affixed data label should be used.
The unauthorized use of alternate refrigerants will void
your compressor warranty . It will be the owner’s
responsibility to make this fact known to any technician
he employs.
It should also be noted that Taylor does not warrant the
refrigerant used in its equipment. For example, if the
refrigerant is lost during the course of ordinary service
to this machine, Taylor has no obligation to either
supply or provide its replacement either at billable or
unbillable terms. Taylor does have the obligation to
recommend a suitable replacement if the original
refrigerant is banned, obsoleted, or no longer available
during the five year warranty of the compressor.
The Taylor Company will continue to monitor the
industry and test new alternates as they are being
developed. Should a new alternate prove, through our
testing, that it would be accepted as a drop-in
replacement, then the above disclaimer would
become null and void. To find out the current status of
an alternate refrigerant as it relates to your
compressor warranty, call the local Taylor Distributor
or the Taylor Factory. Be prepared to provide the
Model/Serial Number of the unit in question.

STANDBY Key
The Separate Hopper Refrigeration System (SHR)
and the Cylinder Temperature Retention System
(CTR) are standard features on these machines. The
SHR incorporates the use of a separate small
refrigeration system to maintain the mix in the hopper
below 40_(4.4_C) to assure bacteria control. The CTR
works with the SHR to maintain a good quality product.
During long “No Sale” periods, it is necessary to warm
the product in the freezing cylinder to approximately
35_Fto40_F(1.7_Cto4.4_C) to prevent overbeating
and product breakdown.
=AUTO
Power Switch
When placed in the ON position, the power switch
allows SOFTECH control panel operation.
MIX LOW Indicator Light
Located on the front of the machine is a mix level
indicating light. When the light is flashing, it indicates
that the mix hopper has a low supply of mix and should
be refilled as soon as possible. Always maintain at
least 3” (7.6 cm) of mix in the hopper. If you neglect to
add mix, a freeze-up may occur. This will cause
eventual damage to the beater, blades, drive shaft,
and freezer door.
To activate the SHR and CTR, press the STANDBY
key. Remove the air orifice and place the air tube (endwithout the hole) into the mix inlet hole.
When the STANDBY key is pressed, the light comes
on, indicating the CTR (Cylinder Temperature
Retention System) has been activated. In the
STANDBY mode, the WASH and AUTO functions are
automatically cancelled. The MIX REF function is
automatically locked in to maintain the mix in the
hopper.
To resume normal operation, press the AUTO key.
When the unit cycles off, the product in the freezing
cylinder will be at serving viscosity. At this time, place
the air tube (end with the hole) into the mix inlet hole
and install the air orifice.
WASH Key
When the WASH key is pressed, the light comes on.
This indicates beater motor operation. The STANDBY
or AUTO modes must be cancelled first to activate the
WASH mode.
AUTO Key
MIX REF Key
When the MIX REF key is pressed, the light comes on
indicating the mix hopper refrigeration system is
operating. For the Models 754, 774, and 794 the MIX
REF is controlled by the left side of the freezer as
viewed from the operator end. The MIX REF function
cannot be cancelled unless the AUTO or STANDBY
modes are cancelled first.
Models 750, 751, 754, 774, 794Important: To the Operator
When the AUTO key is pressed, the light comes on.
This indicates that the main refrigeration system has

Reset Button
On counter models, the reset button is located on the
side of the unit. On console models, the reset button
is located in the service panel. The reset protects the
beater motor from an overload condition. If an overload
occurs, the reset mechanism will trip. To properly reset
the freezer, press the AUTO key to cancel the cycle.
Turn the power switch to the OFF position. Press the
reset button firmly.
Do not use metal objects to press the reset
button. Failure to follow this instruction may
result in electrocution.
Turn the power switch to the ON position. Press the
WASH key and observe the freezer’s performance.
Open the side access panel. Make sure the beater
motor is turning the drive shaft in a clockwise direction
(from the operator end) without binding.
If the beater motor is turning properly, press the WASH
key to cancel the cycle. Press the AUTO key to resume
normal operation. If the freezer shuts down again,
contact a service technician. (For Models 754, 774,
and 794 press the AUTO key on both sides of the unit
to resume normal operation.)
Air Tube
The air tube serves two purposes. One end of the tube
has a hole and the other end does not.
draw handle is raised, new mix and air from the
hopper will flow down into the freezing cylinder.
This will keep the freezing cylinder properly
loaded and will maintain overrun.
2.During long “No Sale” periods, remove the air
orifice. Lubricate the o-rings on the air tube (theend without the hole), and place it into the
mix inlet hole. This will prevent any mix from
entering the freezing cylinder.
The air orifice is used to meter a certain amount
of air into the freezing cylinder. The air orifice
maintains overrun and allows enough mix to enter
the freezing cylinder after a draw.
Adjustable Draw Handle
These units feature an adjustable draw handle to
provide the best portion control. The draw handle
should be adjusted to provide a flow rate of 5 to 7-1/2
oz. (148 to 222 ml) of product per 10 seconds. To

Section 6Operating Procedures
The Model 751 has been selected to illustrate the
step-by-step operating procedures for all models
contained in this manual. These models, for all
practical purposes of operation, are the same.
Each unit stores mix in a hopper. The mix then flows
by gravity through an air tube down into the freezing
cylinder. They all have 3.4 quart (3.2 liter) capacity
freezing cylinders. The Models 750, 751, 754, and 774
have 20 quart (18.9 liter) mix hoppers. The Model 794
has 14 quart (13.2 liter) mix hoppers.
Duplicate the following procedures, where they apply,
for the second freezing cylinder on Models 754, 774,
and 794.
We begin our instructions at the point where we enter
the store in the morning and find the parts
disassembled and laid out to air dry from the previous
night’s cleaning.
These opening procedures will show you how to
assemble these parts into the freezer, sanitize them,
and prime the freezer with fresh mix in preparation to
serve your first portion.
If you are disassembling the machine for the first time
or need information to get to this starting point in our
instructions, turn to page 24, “Disassembly”, and start
there.
Prior to Set-Up (Model 774)
Step 3
Prepare a pail of an approved 100 PPM sanitizing solution (example: Kay-5r). USE WARM WATER AND
FOLLOWTHEMANUFACTURER’SSPECIFICATIONS. Sanitize the topping pumps by placing the
entire pump assembly in the pail of sanitizing solution.
Pump the solution through the assembly to thoroughly
sanitize the pump.
Step 4
Remove the two topping pumps. Fill each stainless
syrup jar with topping. Replace the topping pumps in
the syrup jars.
Assembly
Note: When lubricating parts, use an approved food
grade lubricant (example: Taylor Lube).
MAKE SURE POWER SWITCH IS IN THE
“OFF” POSITION! Failure to follow this instruction
may result in severe personal injury from hazardous
moving parts.
Step 1
Install the drive shaft. Lubricate the groove and shaft
portion that comes in contact with the bearing on the
beater drive shaft. Slide the seal over the shaft and
groove until it snaps into place. DO NOT lubricate the
hex end of the drive shaft. Fill the inside portion of the
seal with 1/4” more lubricant and lubricate the flat side
of the seal that fits onto the rear shell bearing.
Step 1
Remove the two stainless syrup jars with topping
pumps from the syrup rail. Check the water level in the
heated syrup topping well. Make sure the water is filled
to the indicating mark on the bottom of the well. The
heated rail should have 32 oz. (946.2 ml) of water.
Step 2
Place the heater switch in the ON position.
Note: This heating process will take approximately
2-1/2 hours to reach temperature. The water level in
the topping wells must be checked at least once daily.
Insert the drive shaft into the freezing cylinder , hex end
first, and into the rear shell bearing until the seal fits
securely over the rear shell bearing. Engage the hex
end firmly into the drive coupling. Be sure the drive
shaft fits into the drive coupling without binding.
Figure 4
Figure 6
Slide the beater the remainder of the way into the
freezing cylinder and over the end of the drive shaft.
The beater should fit snugly, but not so tightly that the
beater cannot be turned slightly to engage the drive
shaft. If the beater slides in too easily with little or no
resistance, there will not be enough force against the
beater to hold the blades in place. If this is the case,
contact your authorized T aylor service technician.
Step 2
Take one of the scraper blades and slip it under the
hook at the front of the beater. Wrap the blade around
the beater following the helix and pushing the blade
down onto the helix as you wrap. At the back end of the
beater, slip the blade under the hook. Repeat thisstep for the second scraper blade.
Figure 5
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the other side of the freezer
on Models 754, 774, and 794.
Step 3
Assemble the freezer door. Place the large rubber
gasket(s) into the groove(s) on the back side of the
freezer door.
Slide the white plastic front bearing(s) over the baffle
rod(s) onto the bearing hub(s) making certain that the
flanged end of the bearing is resting against the freezer
door.
Note: Do not lubricate the gasket(s) or the front
bearing(s).
Holding the beater securely, slide the beater one third
of the way into the freezing cylinder. Looking into the
freezing cylinder, align the hole at the rear of the beater
with the flats on the end of the drive shaft.
Note: There are two gaskets and two front bearings
for the Models 754, 774, and 794 door, one for each
freezing cylinder.
Insert the prime plug(s) into the hole(s) in the top of the
freezer door, and push down.

until the o-ring pops out of its groove. With the other
hand, push the top of the o-ring forward and it will roll
out of the groove and can be easily removed. If there
is more than one o-ring to be removed, always remove
the rear o-ring first. This will allow the o-ring to slide
over the forward rings without falling into the open
grooves.
Step 4
Remove the o-rings from the air tube(s) and air
orifice(s).
Step 5
Return to the freezer with a small amount of cleaning
solution. Brush clean the rear shell bearing(s) at the
back of the freezing cylinder(s) with the black bristle
brush.

Prepare a sink with an approved cleaning solution (example: Kay-5r). USE WARM WATER AND FOLLOW
THE MANUFACTURER’S SPECIFICATIONS. If
another approved cleaner is used, dilute it according
to the label instructions. (IMPORT ANT: Follow the
label directions. Too STRONG of a solution can cause
parts damage, while too MILD of a solution will not provide adequate cleaning.) Make sure all brushes provided with the freezer are available for brush cleaning.
Remove the rear drip pan(s) and take to the sink for
cleaning.
Note: If the drip pan is filled with an excessive amount
of mix, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide.
Step 7
Thoroughly brush clean all disassembled parts in the
cleaning solution making sure all lubricant and mix film
is removed. Take particular care to brush clean the
draw valve core(s) in the freezer door. Place all the
cleaned parts on a clean, dry surface to air dry
overnight.
Cleaning and sanitizing schedules are governed by
your State or local regulatory agencies and must be
followed accordingly. The following check points
should be stressed during the cleaning and sanitizing
operations.
WERECOMMENDDAILYCLEANINGAND
SANITIZING.
ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL HEALTH CODES.
T roubleshooting Bacterial Count
j 1. Thoroughlycleanandsanitizemachine
regularly, including complete disassembly and
brush cleaning.
j 2. Use all brushes supplied for thorough cleaning.
The brushes are specially designed to reach all
mix passageways.
j 3. Use the white bristle brush to clean the mix inlet
hole which extends from the mix hopper down
to the rear of the freezing cylinder.
j 4. Use the black bristle brush to thoroughly clean
the rear shell bearing located at the rear of the
freezing cylinder. Be sure to have a generous
amount of cleaning solution on the brush.
j 5. IF LOCAL HEALTH CODES PERMIT THE
USE OF RERUN, make sure the mix rerun is
stored in a sanitized, covered stainless steel
container and used the following day. DO NOTprime the machine with rerun. When using
rerun, skim off the foam and discard. Mix the
rerun with fresh mix in a ratio of 50/50 during the
days operation.
j 7. Properly prepare the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions. Read and follow label directions
carefully. Too strong of a solution may damage
the parts and too weak of a solution will not do
an adequate job of cleaning or sanitizing.
j 8. The temperature of the mix in the mix hopper
and walk-in cooler should be below 40_F.
(4.4_C.).
Regular Maintenance Checks
j 1. Replace scraper blades that are nicked or
damaged.Beforeinstallingthebeater
assembly, be certain that scraper blades are
properly attached to the helix.
j 2. Check the rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive mix leakage in rear drip pan) and be
certain it is properly cleaned.
j 3. Using a screwdriver and cloth towel, keep the
rear shell bearing and the female hex drive
socket clean and free of lubricant and mix
deposits.
j 4. Dispose of o-rings and seals if they are worn,
torn, or fit too loosely, and replace with new
ones.
j 5. Follow all lubricating procedures as outlined in
“Assembly”.
j 6. If your machine is air cooled, check the
condensers for accumulation of dirt and lint.
Dirty condensers will reduce the efficiency and
capacity of the machine. Condensers should be
cleaned monthly with a soft brush. Never use
screwdrivers or other metal probes to clean
between the fins.
j 6. On a designated day of the week, run the mix as
low as feasible and discard it after closing. This
will break the rerun cycle and reduce the
possibility of high bacteria and coliform counts.

Winter Storage
If the place of business is to be closed during the winter
months, it is important to protect the freezer 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 freezers, 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, and then add a
liberal amount of permanent type auto anti-freeze.
This is extremely important. Failure to follow this
procedure may cause severe and costly damage to the
refrigeration system.
Your local Taylor Distributor can perform this winter
storage service for you.
Wrap detachable parts of the freezer such as beater,
blades, drive shaft, and freezer door, and place them
in a protected dry place. Rubber trim parts and gaskets
canbeprotectedbywrappingthemwith
moisture-proof paper. All parts should be thoroughly
cleaned of dried mix or lubrication which attract mice
and other vermin.
