PORTION CONTROL

IL1268

This dispenser is supplied with a portion control timer. This portion control is based on a time setting.
Variations in product temperature and consistency will affect the dispensed amount. To insure a
consistent portion, use product that is at the correct temperature (145°F to 160°).

SPDE2 models have a Portion Control Label showing approximate settings for portion size
in oz, see Fig 1. The units are pre-set at the factory for 0.75oz, this is a general guideline,
and following procedures still need to be followed to complete calibration.

To set portion:

1. Load preheated product bag into dispenser.

2. Dispense product until there is a steady ow.

3. Dispense the product into a clean container and measure
the product to verify the dispensed amount.

4.

Using a small screwdriver, remove the round plug covering

the adjustment knob located on the front of the unit below
the tube cover.

5.

Turn the control dial clockwise for more product

and counterclockwise for less product.

6.

Repeat steps 3 and 5 until the desired amount

is reached.

SPDE2 models only.

4. The temperature should read between 140°F and 160°F.

The dispenser is designed to operate 24 hours a day. Once the product is placed in the dispenser it
should not be removed until the bag is empty or the holding period of the product has expired.

NOTE:

open the dispenser and pull the
product toward the outlet 3 or 4
times during operation, see Fig 2.
