1 Introduction
Soft Serve Freezer Model GES-102
The GES-102 Freezer is designed to
produce DQ frozen soft serve ice cream
or DQ yogurt, with a product serving
temperature of 18 to 19ºF (-8 to -7ºC).
If such products are prepared from
powdered concentrate, they should
be precooled to 40°F (4°C) prior to
introduction to the freezer. Use of other
products in this machine is considered
misuse (see Warranty.)
This manual has been prepared to assist
in the training of personnel on the proper
operation and general maintenance of
your Duke freezer.
Your freezer will not compensate for or
correct any assembly or priming errors
made during the initial start-up. Therefore
it is extremely important to follow the
assembly and priming procedures
detailed in this manual.
Be sure all personnel responsible for
equipment operation completely read and
understand this manual before operating
the freezer. When properly operated and
maintained, your freezer will produce a
consistent quality product.
If you require technical assistance, please
contact your local authorized H.C. Duke &
Son, LLC service company:

2 Note to Installer
This freezer must be installed and serviced by a service technician in
accordance with the installation instructions.
After installation the warranty registration card must be completed and
returned to validate warranty.

Soft Serve Freezer Model GES-102
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
note the damage on the carrier’s freight
bill and notify the carrier’s local agent
immediately. Also note on the freight bill
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).

2.2 Installation
Soft Serve Freezer Model GES-102
CAUTION
All materials and connections
must conform to local
requirements and be in
compliance with the National
Electrical Code (NEC).
1. This freezer is designed for indoor use
and must be protected from outdoor
weather conditions.
2. Where codes permit, we recommend
that the freezer be installed on casters
and have exible water and electrical
connections for service and cleaning
ability.
IMPORTANT:
Unit requires air ventilation. The
minimum air space at the sides
must be 6 inches (15.2cm) and 1
in.(2.5cm) in the rear or 6 inches
in the rear and 1 inch on the
sides. Top must have 29 inches
clearance. Failure to follow
minimum air clearances will void
warranty.
if boxed on 3 sides. Insure freezer is
not subjected to hot exhaust air from
other equipment. Anything blocking
ventilation, (e.g. cone dispenser), will
reduce the efciency 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. 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.
3. All models require 6 inches (15.3 cm)
minimum air space at rear, 1in(2.54
cm) on sides or 6 inch (15.3 cm) on
each side and 1inch (2.54cm) at rear.
Space above freezer is to be 29 inch
(79.7 cm) and is to be provided with
an 6 in (15.3 cm) air deector at rear
2.3 Electrical Requirements
CAUTION
To prevent accidental electrical
shock, a positive earth ground
is required.
1. Always verify electrical specications
on the data plate of each individual
freezer. Data plate specications will
always supersede the information in
this manual. (See Figure 3-2)
6. Water Cooled Do not allow freezer to
be in ambient where air temperature
goes below 0°C (32°F),the freezing
temperature of water.
7. Water consumption increases if
temperature of entering water is
above 20°C (65°F)
2. Supply voltage must be within + 10%
of voltage indicated on the nameplate.
Also, on three-phase systems,
voltage between phases must be
balanced within 2%. (More than a
6 volt difference between any two
voltage measurements at 208-230
volts indicates a possible imbalance.)
Request your local power company to
correct any voltage problem.
3. An easily accessible main power
disconnect must be provided for all
poles of the wiring to the freezer.
184559 3
Soft Serve Freezer Model GES-102
2.4 Electrical Connections
CAUTION
To prevent accidental
electrical shock, a positive
earth ground is required.
Important!
A positive earth ground is required for
electronic VQM system
to operate correctly.
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
specications. (See Figure 3-2)
3. Refer to the wiring diagram provided
for proper power connections.
4. Electrical connections are made in
the junction boxes located mid-level
behind the right side panel.
Important
Set switch next to the connection
box “UP” for 220-230v or “DOWN”
for 208-219V. Failure to set switch to
proper voltage will cause damage to
the electrical components and will void
all warranties.
5. Use a exible connection when
permissible.
6. Beater Shaft Rotation Freezers are
designed for clockwise rotation when
viewed from front of freezer. 1ph
machines are prewired for proper
rotation. On 3phase machines, phase
wires to freezer should be connected
to produce proper beater rotation.
This is to be done by a freezer
technician.
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.
