2.1 Uncrating and Inspection

CAUTION Be sure to properly support the machine when removing bolts and installing legs or casters.

When the unit is received and while the carrier is still present, inspect the shipping carton for any damage that may have occurred in transit. If the SHOCKWATCH® label indicates red and/ or the carton is broken, torn, or punctured,

Figure 2-1 Machine Bolted to Shipping Base

note the damage on the carrier’s freight bill and notify the carrier’s local agent immediately.

1. Remove the carton from the pallet, and move the machine as close as possible to the permanent location.

2. Remove the shipping bolts on

the bottom of the freezer (gure 2-1) and install either the legs or casters (gure

2-2).

FRONT BACK

NOTE: Screw casters or legs all the way in coupling, then adjust out to level with 1/4 inch slope to front.

2.2 Installation

Models 876, 876B, 876C, 876RH, 876BRH, 876CRH & 875 Batch

CAUTION All materials and connections must conform to local requirements and be in compliance with the National Electrical Code.

1. This freezer is designed for indoor use and must be protected from outdoor weather conditions.

2. Where codes permit, Electro Freeze recommends that the freezer be

installed on casters and have exible

water and electrical connections for easier service and cleaning.

3. All models require a minimum 6 inch (15 cm) clearance on either the side panels or the rear panel for adequate ventilation. Freezers designed with top air discharge require at least 18 inches (45 cm) above the top panel be free of obstructions. Anything blocking ventilation of the freezer (including cone dispensers) will reduce the

efciency of the freezer.

4. Water cooled double models will require a 1/2” MPT water inlet and water waste connection. Both water condensers are tied together so that one water inlet and one water waste is all that is required. The connections

are found on the bottom under the compressor mounting area and are clearly tagged - “Water Inlet” and “Water Waste”. A manual shut-off valve should be installed in the water inlet line at the time of installation. The water pressure must be between 35-140 psig (241-965kPa) for proper operation.

5. Water cooled and air cooled remote freezers require at least 12 inches (30 cm) above the top panel be free of obstructions. Anything blocking ventilation of the freezer (including cone dispensers) will reduce the

efciency of the freezer.

6. Place the freezer in the nal location

and level the machine by adjusting the legs or casters so that the unit is level side-to-side, and the front is approximately ¼” lower than the rear, to allow proper drainage of the freezing cylinder.

7. Water Cooled Do not allow freezer to be in ambient where air temperature goes below 0°C (32°F),the freezing temperature of water.

8. Water consumption increases if temperature of entering water is above 20°C (65°F)

2. Refer to the data plate on the rear panel for connection of proper fuse or HACR circuit breaker.

3. Refer to the wiring diagram provided for proper power connections.

4. All 115 volt 20 amp freezers are supplied with a factory power cord (Figure 2-3) that requires a NEMA “5-20 R” type receptacle to accommodate the plug. All freezers should be connected to a circuit separate from any other electrical equipment.

5. Supply voltage must be within ± 10% of the voltage indicated on the nameplate. Request your local power company to correct any voltage problem.

6. For 3 phase freezers, beater shaft rotation must be clockwise as viewed from the front of the freezer.

2.4 Electrical Connections

CAUTION To prevent accidental electrical shock, a positive earth ground is required.

1. Double freezers with two compressors require one power supply for each side of the freezer. Each side of the freezer operates independently.

2. Check the data plate for fuse size, wire ampacity and electrical

specications.

3. Refer to the wiring diagram provided for proper power connections.

4. Electrical connections are made in the junction box located mid-level behind the left side panel.

WARNING

Warning: When installing the machine,

insert an all pole disconnect, adequately sized according to freezer nameplate marking with electrical contact spacing of 3mm minimum. This should be within sight of the freezer.

8 Start-up Instructions

8.1 Sanitizing

Important: Never let the sanitizer remain in the freezer for more than 15 minutes.

Important: Do not insert any tools or objects into the mix feed port or head dispensing hole while the freezer is running.

Figure 8-1 Attach Springs to Beater

The washing and sanitizing instructions explained in this manual are procedures to remove bacteria and maintain a clean, sanitary freezer. The slush/cocktail freezer must be disassembled and cleaned according to the instructions in this manual before assembly and sanitizing (start-up) to ensure the best possible cleanliness.

CAUTION To prevent bacteria growth, use only approved sanitizers to sanitize the machine. Sanitizing must be done just prior to starting the machine. Failure to do so could create a health hazard.

Important: Do not use unapproved sanitizers or laundry bleach. These materials may contain high concentrations of chlorine and will chemically attack freezer components.

NOTE: It is your responsibility to be aware of the requirements for meeting Federal, State and Local laws concerning the frequency of cleaning and sanitizing the freezer.

1. Wash and sanitize your hands and forearms.

2. Prepare 4 gallons (15.2 liters) of sanitizing solution (example: SteraSheen Green Label) in a container. Sanitizing solution must be mixed according to manufacturer’s instructions to yield 100 PPM strength chlorine solution. Use warm water (100° to 110°F or 38° to 43°C) to wash, rinse, and sanitize.

20 184633

3. Pour sanitizing solution into the hopper pan. Using a clean brush, wash down the hopper walls, hopper cover and the mix feed port from the hopper to

the cylinder, as shown in gure 8-1.

4. Remove air bleed plug and allow

sanitizer to ow into cylinder. Replace

the plug when sanitizer reaches bottom of air plug opening.

Important: Do not use the “FREEZE” position with sanitizer in the cylinder. The freezer will be damaged.

5. When the cylinder has lled with

sanitizing solution, reconnect the main power supply to the freezer. Turn the selector switch to the “CLEAN” position and allow the beater to run for 5 minutes.

6. At this time check for leaks around the head, piston and drain tube.

Important: DO NOT hang containers from the dispensing spout — doing so will damage the head.

7. Place an empty container under the dispensing head, and drain the solution by opening the piston to allow the cylinder and hopper to empty.

8. When the sanitizing solution has

drained from the freezer, turn the selector switch to the “OFF” position.

Models 876, 876B, 876C, 876RH, 876BRH, 876CRH & 875 Batch

8.2 Product Preparation

Important: DO NOT use the freezer for purposes other than freezing a “slush” product or cocktail mix. DO NOT attempt to freeze plain water. This will result in damage to the freezer.

1. Use a container of sufcient capacity

and with gallon measurement markings to accurately mix in quantities required by the product manufacturer’s instructions.

2. Prepare at least 5 gallons (18.9L) of mix. Follow the directions exactly as shown on product label.

EXAMPLE: If using a powdered

neutral base, add contents of package, 5 lbs. (2.3 kg) of sugar,

8.3 Priming

Priming the freezer removes excess air from the freezing cylinder and sets the proper

consistency for the rst cylinder of product.

and just enough cold water to equal 5 gallons (18.9 L) of mix. Never add more water than instructions call for.

NOTE: The product should register between 11-13% Brix on a refractometer or a hydrometer. Never go below 11. (See Section 10.3)

3. You may precool the slush mix and thereby gain added capacity in your freezer, if desired. Cool at 36°F (2°C) — DO NOT FREEZE.

4. Always thoroughly stir mix before

lling machine. Ingredients can

separate over time and change Brix reading.

1. While holding the piston open, pour the mix directly into the hopper, allowing the mix to force out any remaining sanitizer (approximately 8 ounces or 250 ml).

2. When pure mix appears (all sanitizer has been expelled), close the piston.

Important: Failure to completely remove sanitizer or water from the freezing cylinder before placing in “FREEZE” will damage the freezer.

3. Remove the air bleed plug and allow

cylinder to ll with mix. Replace air

plug when mix reaches bottom of air plug opening.

4. Finish lling the hopper with mix. The

freezer will hold 8.5 gallons—3.5 gallons in the freezer cylinder and 5 gallons in the hopper. (32.3 Liters—13.2 L in cylinder and 18.9 L in reservoir.)

NOTE: Do not allow the level of mix in the hopper to fall below 1/3 full.

5. Turn the selector switch to the “FREEZE” position.

6. Place the hopper cover over the hopper.

7. When the mix has been frozen to the proper consistency, the compressor will automatically shut off. It will restart whenever the product consistency changes. The beater will run continuously.

8. See Section 11, Slush Product Information, for determining consistency and making adjustments.

9. If your slush mix is above 70°F (21°C), it will take approximately 30 minutes to freeze down to the proper consistency.

9 Closing Procedures

NOTE: It is your responsibility to be aware of, and conform to, the requirements for meeting federal, state, and local laws concerning the frequency of cleaning and sanitizing the freezer.

1. If the mix is nonperishable (sugar base), place the selector switch in the “OFF” position at the end of the day.

2. To restart the freezer on the following day, place the selector switch in the “FREEZE” position. The mix in the cylinder will remain partially frozen overnight and this will reduce the freezing time to 5 – 10 minutes.

9.1 Draining Product

To remove semi-frozen product from the cylinder, perform the following steps:

1. Place the selector switch in the “CLEAN” position.

3. If the mix is perishable (fruit base), leave the selector switch in the “FREEZE” position or drain the product from the freezer into a sanitized container. Cover and place container in refrigerated storage.

NOTE: Follow state and local health

codes concerning reuse of product.

2. Place a clean, sanitized container under the dispensing nozzle.

NOTE: Follow state and local health codes concerning reuse of product.

3. Dispense the semi-frozen product until it stops. Cover the product container and place it in the cooler. Place the selector switch in the “OFF” position.

4. Remove the air bleed plug and pour 2 gallons (7.6 L) of cold water into the hopper. Reinstall the air bleed plug.

5. Place the selector switch in the “CLEAN” position. Clean the hopper walls and very slowly dispense the cold water. Follow with warm water until the freezer is rinsed. Turn the selector switch to the “OFF” position.

Important: DO NOT use hot water. Damage to the freezer could occur.

6. Refer to Section 6, Disassembly and Cleaning.

10 Slush Product Information

10.1 Determining Product Consistency

1. For slush mix, use a clear, straightsided glass of any size and draw off a full glass of frozen product (slush

avor bottles work well).

2. Allow the glass to stand for 2 minutes at room temperature away from any heat source.

10.2 Adjusting Product Consistency

Product consistency has been preset at the factory. Further adjustment may be necessary to obtain your desired consistency. To adjust product consistency, proceed with the following steps:

1. Allow the freezer to operate until the compressor shuts off.

Dispense sufcient product to check

consistency. (Refer to Section 10.1, Determining Product Consistency.)

2. Find the small adjustment cover toward the rear in the center of the left

3. Verify the product consistency by determining the amount of liquid at the bottom of the glass.

Examples of settings : 5% liquid 1% liquid (Starts to stack) 0% liquid (Stacks well)

CAUTION To prevent bacteria growth, use only approved sanitizers to sanitize the machine. Sanitizing must be done just prior to starting the machine. Failure to do so could create a health hazard.

side panel.

3. Remove the top screw holding the cover and loosen the bottom, letting the cover swing away from the access hole.

Figure 10-1 Attach Springs to Beater

4. Look into the access hole and you will see an arm extending from the drive

motor (see gure 10-1.) The arm is

held in place by springs on both the top and bottom. At the end of this arm is a nylon (product) adjusting stud. This stud is the only operating adjustment on the freezer.

5. If the product is too thin, turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise (up) ½ turn. If the product is too thick, turn the adjusting screw clockwise (down) ½ turn. Close cover and reconnect power. Turn selector switch to “FREEZE” and wait until the compressor has cycled off.

6. Recheck the product consistency in 30 minutes. Repeat steps and recheck until proper consistency is obtained. Close cover.

10.1 Refractometer/Brix Reading

A refractometer measures soluble sugar content of mix, expressed in percentage weight. This is normally referred to as a “Brix Reading.” The typical refractometer uses a scale from 0% to 32%.

Adjust the refractometer according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

NOTE: A refractometer is a delicate instrument and must be handled with care. Never immerse the entire refractometer in a cold drink. Cooling the refractometer will cause it to give inaccurate readings. A refractometer cannot be used to read dietetic syrups.

1. Open the hinged side of the refractometer and place a few drops of mix on the slide.

Close the slide and look through the eye piece, holding the refractometer toward the light. A line will appear across a graduated scale which indicates the Brix level.

Acceptable Brix level is 11-13 on a refractometer.

NOTE: Never go below 11 on the Brix Reading.

Some experimentation may be necessary before correct Brix and serving temperature will be found. Generally, the higher the Brix reading the lower the serving temperature. Conversely, the lower the Brix reading, the higher the required serving temperature. If the complaint concerns product appearance,

(ie. too runny or too stiff) always rst

take a Brix reading of the mix because variation in sugar content will have a direct bearing on actual freezing point.
