Planned Maintenance

1. Turn the dispenser power switch to the off position.

2. Unplug the dispenser power cord from the wall and disconnect the airline.

3. Check the air line and quick disconnect for leaks.

4. Purge any water from the compressor air tank. (This should be done on a regular basis. Call

Schwan’s Food Service Automated Equipment, LLC. if you need assistance.)

5. Verify the hopper is not touching the accumulator doors. (The hopper should be centered

with the accumulator doors.)

6. Verify the accumulator door collars are tight and adjusted 1/8 inch (4mm) away from the

cladding.

7. Remove the hopper from the dispenser and clean the dispenser (refer to the daily closing

procedure in your manual).

8. Inspect the hopper and drum for damage.

9. Inspect the lift saddle and guide slides on the basket guides for signs of excessive wear and

loose screws.

10. Remove the dovetail block and carriage guide. Clean the dove tail block, carriage guide and

screws. Reassemble using blue Loctite on the screws.

11. Center the upper and lower guides with the lift saddle and tighten the co llar set screws.

12. Remove the back panel of the dispenser.

13. Remove the water trap bowl from the pressure regulator.

14. Inspect the contents of the water trap bowl. If the bowl is more than half full of water, or if

there is an excessive amount of debris in the bowl, clean the bowl with warm soapy water. If the bowl is cracked contact Schwan’s Food Service Automated Equipment, LLC. Service for assistance.

Note: It is normal for a moderate amount of debris to be stuck to the walls of the bowl.

The bowl may appear cloudy because of this. It is only a concern if there appears to be enough debris to interfere with the operation of the float.

15. Reinstall the water trap bowl.

16. Reconnect the airline.
