2.3 FREEZER INSTALLATION
Installation of the freezer involves moving the freezer close
to its permanent location, removing all crating, setting in
place, assembling parts, and cleaning.
A. Uncrate the freezer.
B. Accurate leveling is necessary for correct drainage of
freezer barrel and to insure correct overrun. Place a
spirit level on top of the freezer at each corner to
check for level condition. If adjustment is necessary,
level the freezer by turning the bottom part of each leg
in or out. Then separate freezer base gasket and
install with seam to the back and angle to the top. (Fig.
4).
Figure 5. Space and Ventilation Requirements
E. Connect the power cord. The plug is designed for 208
or 230 volt/20 amp duty. Check the nameplate on your
freezer for proper supply. The unit must be connected
to a properly grounded receptacle. The electrical cord
furnished as part of the freezer has a three prong
grounding type plug (Fig. 6). The use of an extension
cord is not recommended, if necessary use one with
a size 12 gauge or heavier with ground wire. Do not use
an adapter to get around grounding requirement.
Figure 4 - Leveling
C. The freezer is equipped with an air cooled condenser
and requires correct ventilation. The right side of the
freezer is the air intake and left side discharge. Both
sides must have 3" clearance. The top requires 10" of
clearance. (Fig. 5).

B. OFF-ON SWITCH
The OFF-ON switch is a two position toggle switch
used to supply power to the control circuit. When the
switch is in the OFF position, nothing will run. When
the switch is in the ON position the freezer will be in
the idle mode until a switch is activated.
C. PUSH TO FREEZE SWITCH
The PUSH TO FREEZE switch is a "snap" switch used
to start the freezing cycle. During initial freeze down,
the OFF-ON switch is placed in the ON position. Then
the PUSH TO FREEZE switch is pressed until the
drive motor and compressor come "ON".
NOTE
After the gearmotor starts, there is a 3 second delay before the compressor starts.
During the normal operation, the red PUSH TO FREEZE
switch light will illuminate after the freezer has been
idle for the preset cycles. Before drawing product,
press the PUSH TO FREEZE switch if it is illuminated.
Wait until the green light is illuminated before dispensing.
NOTE
If the freezer shuts off and the PUSH TO FREEZE
light flashes, you have an error condition. Turn the
OFF-ON swtich to the OFF position, correct the
problem and turn the freezer back on. (See Troubleshooting.)
D. GREEN LIGHT
The green light is used to indicate that the product has
reached the proper consistency or temperature and is
ready to be dispensed.
G. RED MIX LOW LENS
The red MIX LOW light is designed to alert the operator
to a low mix condition. The lens will illuminate with
approximately one gallon of mix in the hopper. When
the MIX LOW lens is lit, refill hopper immediately.
NOTE
Failure to refill hopper immediately may result in
operational problems. Skim excess foam with a
sanitized utensil. Failure to skim foam can affect
low mix light operation.
H. HOLD READY SWITCH
The HOLD READY switch is a push button switch.
When pushed in and held for 5 seconds, the hold ready
mode will be activated and the word HOLD will illuminate on the touch pad. The product will remain ready
to serve and the freezer will not go to idle. To return to
normal operation push and hold for 5 seconds.
I.DISPENSE RATE ADJUSTERS
The dispense rate adjuster limits the opening of the
spigot. To adjust product dispense rate, turn the
adjusting knob clockwise for slower flow and counterclockwise for faster flow.
J. FRONT DOOR INTERLOCK SWITCH
When the door is securely fastened, the freezer will
operate normally. When the front door is removed, the
drive and compressor will not run.
3.3 SANITIZING
Sanitizing must be done after the freezer is cleaned and
just before the hopper is filled with mix. Sanitizing the night
before is not effective. However, you should always clean
the freezer and parts after using it.
NOTE
If the PUSH TO FREEZE red light is illuminated,
push the PUSH TO FREEZE switch and wait until
the green light illuminates before dispensing.
E. CLEAN SWITCH
The CLEAN switch is a "snap" switch. When the
switch is pushed the refrigeration system will be OFF
and the auger will rotate for cleaning. When the switch
is pushed again, the auger will stop and the CLEAN
light will flash indicating the freezer is in the CLEAN
mode. To exit the CLEAN mode turn the OFF-ON
switch to the OFF position. If the freezer is left in
CLEAN for more than 20 minutes or is pushed three
times in ten seconds, it will go in error. To reset place
the CLEAN-OFF-ON switch in the ON position and
allow the error light to flash a minimum of 10 minutes.
Then turn to off, wait 5 seconds and turn on.
F. DRIVE MOTOR OVERLOAD
The internal DRIVE MOTOR OVERLOAD will trip if the
drive motor is overloaded. It will reset after approximately 10-12 minutes. If the drive motor continues to
trip, refer to Troubleshooting (Sec. 4).
WARNING
THE UNITED ST ATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE AND THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRA TION REQUIRE THA T ALL CLEANING AND
SANITIZING SOLUTIONS USED WITH FOOD
PROCESSING EQUIPMENT BE CERTIFIED FOR
THIS USE.
When sanitizing the freezer, refer to local sanitary regulations for applicable codes and recommended sanitizing
products and procedures. The frequency of sanitizing
must comply with local health regulations. Mix sanitizer
according to manufacturer's instructions to provide a 100
parts per million strength solution. Mix sanitizer in quantities of no less than 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of 120°F water.
Allow sanitizer to contact the surfaces to be sanitized for
5 minutes. Any sanitizer must be used only in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE
Stoelting, Inc. has found that STERA-SHEEN
GREEN LABEL SANITIZER AND CLEANER does
an effective job of properly sanitizing and cleaning a
soft serve freezer. We therefore include a sample
with each new freezer. Other products may be as
effective. For further information refer to cleaning and
sanitizing information Section 3.13.

In general, sanitizing may be conducted as follows:
A. Push the mix inlet regulator into hopper with air
inlet (long) tube toward the front of the freezer
(Fig.11).
E. After five minutes, place a bucket under the spigot and
open spigot to drain sanitizing solution. When solution
has drained, press the CLEAN snap switch to stop the
auger. Allow the freezer barrel to drain completely
(Fig. 14).
Figure 11. Mix Inlet Regulator
B. Prepare 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of sanitizing solution
following manufacturer's instructions. Pour into hopper with mix inlet regulator in place.
C. Place the OFF-ON toggle switch in the ON position
while pressing the CLEAN switch. Check for leaks.
(Fig. 12.)

Figure 14. Draining Solution
3.4 FREEZE DOWN AND OPERATION
This section covers the recommended operating procedures to be followed for the safe operation of the freezer.
A. Sanitize just prior to use.
B. Place the OFF-ON switch in the OFF position.
C. With spigot open, pour approximately 1 gallon (3.8
liters) of mix into the hopper. Allow the mix to flush out
about 8 ounces (0.23 liters) of sanitizing solution and
liquid mix. Close the spigot.
D. Fill hopper with approximately 6.5 gallons (24.6 liters)
of pre-chilled (40°F or 4°C) mix.
CAUTION
DO NOT OVERFILL THE HOPPER. MIX LEVEL
MUST NOT BE HIGHER THAN THE AIR INLET
TUBE ON THE MIX INLET REGULA TOR.
E. The freezer barrel will automatically fill until it is about
1/2 full. If freezer barrel does not fill, check for obstruction in the mix inlet regulator. If freezer barrel fills over
1/2 full, indicated by low overrun, check for leaks at the
mix inlet regulator "O" Ring or check if the mix inlet
regulator was installed correctly or that the freezer is
level.
Figure 13. Sanitizing Hopper
F. Place the OFF-ON switch in the ON position, then
press the PUSH TO FREEZE switch until the freezer
starts.
NOTE
After the gearmotor starts, there is a 3 second delay before the compessor starts.

Page 18
G. After about 6 to 10 minutes the freezer will shut OFF
and the green lens will illuminate. The product is ready
to serve. Freeze down time may be longer for some
frozen diet dessert mixes. High ambient temperatures
may extend freeze down time.
H. For normal dispensing, move the spigot handle fully
open 60° (Fig. 15).
Figure 15. Dispensing Product
Mix does not improve with age. Old mix, or mix that has
been stored at too high temperature, can result in a
finished product that is less than satisfactory from the
appearance and taste standpoint. To retard bacteria growth
in dairy based mixes, the best storage temperature range
is between 36° to 40°F (2.2° to 4.4°C).
Some products tend to foam more than others. If excess
foam should occur, skim off with a sanitized utensil and
discard. Periodically, stir the mix in the hopper with a
sanitized utensil.
3.6 REMOVING MIX FROM FREEZER
To remove the mix from the freezer, refer to the following
steps:
A. Remove the mix inlet regulator from the hopper by
pulling straight up (Fig. 16).
CAUTION
REFRIGERATION IS AUTOMATICALLY ACTIV A TED WHEN THE SPIGOT IS OPENED. CLOSE
THE SPIGOT COMPLETELY AFTER DISPENSING.
I.The freezer is designed to dispense the product at a
reasonable draw rate. If the freezer is overdrawn, the
result is a soft product or a product that will not
dispense at all. If this should occur, allow the freezer
to run for approximately 30 seconds before dispensing
additional product. After a while the operator will sense
or feel when the freezer is beginning to fall behind, and
will slow down on the rate of draw so as not to exceed
the capacity.
J.Do not operate the freezer when the MIX LOW light is
on or with less than 1-3/4 inches (4.4 cm) of mix in the
hopper. Refill the hopper immediately.
3.5 MIX INFORMATION
Mix can vary considerably from one manufacturer to
another. Differences in the amount of butter-fat content and
quantity and quality of other ingredients have a direct
bearing on the finished frozen product. A change in freezer
performance that cannot be explained by a technical
problem may be related to the mix.
Figure 16. Removing Mix Inlet Regulator
B. Place the OFF-ON rocker switch in the ON position
and push the CLEAN switch to rotate the auger. Allow
the mix to agitate in freezer barrel until the mix has
become a liquid, about 5 minutes.
C. Drain the liquid mix by opening the spigot. A bucket or
container should be placed under the spigot to catch
the liquid mix. (Fig. 17).
D. Place the OFF-ON switch in the OFF position.
Proper product serving temperature varies from one
manufacturer's mix to another. Soft serve mixes should
provide a satisfactory product in the 18° to 20°F (-7° to
-6°C) range, shake mixes 24° to 28°F (-4° to -2°C).
When checking the temperature, stir the thermometer in
the frozen product to read the true temperature.

Page 22
3.13 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
It is recommended that a maintenance schedule be followed to keep the freezer clean and operating properly.
A. Cleaning and Sanitizing Information
CLEANING vs. SANITIZING
It is important to distinguish between cleaning and
sanitizing. Although these terms may sound
synonymous, they are not. BOTH are required for
adequate food safety and proper machine
maintenance.
Soft serve freezers require special consideration
when it comes to food safety and proper cleaning
and sanitizing.
The following information has been compiled by
Purdy Products Company, makers of Stera-Sheen
Green Label Cleaner/Sanitizer and specifically
covers issues for cleaning and sanitizing frozen
dessert machines. This information is meant to
supplement a comprehensive food safety program.
Soil Materials Associated with Frozen Dessert
Machines
MILKFAT/BUTTERFAT – As components of icecream/frozen custard mix, these soils will
accumulate on the interior surfaces of the machine
and its parts. Fats are difficult to remove and help
attribute to milkstone build-up.
MILKSTONE – Is a white/gray film that forms on
equipment and utensils that come in contact with
dairy products. These films will accumulate slowly
on surfaces because of ineffective cleaning, use of
hard water, or both. Milkstone is usually a porous
deposit, which will harbor microbial
contaminants and eventually defy sanitizingefforts.
Once milkstone has formed, it is very difficult to
remove. Without using the correct product and
procedure, it is nearly impossible to remove a thick
layer of milkstone.
(NOTE: general-purpose cleaners DO NOT remove
milkstone.) This can lead to high bacteria counts
and a food safety dilemma.
IT IS BEST TO CONTROL MILKSTONE ON A
DAILY BASIS BEFORE IT CAN BECOME A
SIGNIFICANT FOOD SAFETY PROBLEM.
In addition to food safety, milkstone can cause
premature wear to machine parts which can add to
costs for replacement parts or possibly more
expensive repairs if worn machine parts are not
replaced once they have become excessively worn.
Important Differences Between Cleaning and
Sanitizing
CLEANING
·Is the removal of soil materials from a surface.
·Is a prerequisite for effective sanitizing.
NOTE
An UNCLEAN surface will harbor
bacteria that can defy sanitizing efforts.
Bacteria can develop and resist sanitizing efforts
within a layer of soil material (milkstone). Thorough
cleaning procedures that involve milkstone
removal are critical for operators of frozen
dessert machines.
SANITIZING
·Kills bacteria.
·Can be effective on clean surfaces only.
·DOES NOT clean or remove milkstone.
NOTE
Using a SANTITIZER on an unclean surface will not
guarantee a clean and safe frozen dessert machine.
Proper Daily Maintenance:
The Only Way to Assure Food Safety and
Product Quality
Proper daily maintenance can involve a wide variety
of products and procedures. Overall, the products
and procedures fall into three separate categories.
(Please note that this is a brief overview intended for
informational purposes only.)
1.CLEANING – This involves draining mix from the
freezer barrel and rinsing the machine with
water. Next, a cleaner is run through the
machine. Then, the machine is disassembled
and removable parts are taken to the sink for
cleaning.
2.MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Since almost all
cleaners do not have the ability to remove
milkstone, the use of a delimer becomes
necessary. Although this procedure may not be
needed on a daily basis, it will usually follow the
cleaning procedure. It requires letting a delimer
solution soak in the machine for an extended
period of time. Individual parts are also soaked
in a deliming solution for an extended period of
time (more about delimers in AdditionalInformation).
14
Page 23
3. SANITIZING – After the machine has been
cleaned and contains no milkstone, the
machine is reassembled. Then a FDA-approved
sanitizing solution is run through the machine to
kill bacteria. The machine is then ready for food
preparation.
As a recommended cleaner and sanitizer for your
frozen dessert machine, STERA-SHEEN has proven
to be one of the best daily maintenance products for:
·CLEANING – Thorough removal of all solids
including butterfat and milk fat.
·MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Complete removal of
milkstone.
THE USE OF CHLORINE TEST STRIPS
“Test strips” are used to determine concentrations of
active chlorine in sanitizing solutions. To use the
strips, tear off a small portion and submerge it into
the sanitizing solution. Then, compare the color
change to the color key on the side of the test strip
dispenser to determine the approximate chlorine
concentration.
The ideal concentration of chlorine needs to be 100
ppm (as stated by the FDA).
NOTE
Follow the directions on the container for proper
concentration.
·SANITIZING – FDA-approved no rinse sanitizer
for food contact surfaces.
Additional Information
THE USE OF DELIMERS
A delimer is a strong acid that has the ability to
dissolve milkstone. This type of chemical may
become necessary once high levels of milkstone
have developed. While these products are very
effective for removing HIGH levels of milkstone, they
are not ideal for two reasons:
1.PRODUCT SAFETY – Strong acids are
dangerous chemicals and handling them
requires safety
2.MACHINE DAMAGE – Strong acids will attack
metal and rubber causing premature wear of
parts. The use of a delimer needs to be closely
monitored to avoid damage to machine surfaces
and parts.
With proper daily use of STERA-SHEEN or it’s
equivalent, there is no need for the use of a
DELIMER.
DO NOT USE BLEACH
·BLEACH HAS ABSOLUTELY NO CLEANING
PROPERTIES.
·BLEACH IS CORROSIVE. It can and will
damage components of the machine causing
premature wear and metal corrosion.
There are two main factors that contribute to falling
chlorine concentrations in a sanitizing solution.
1.PRODUCT USE – As the chlorine in the
solution is being used, chlorine concentrations
fall.
2.TIME – As time passes, small amounts of
chlorine “evaporate” from the solution. (That is
why you can smell it.)
Sanitizing solutions should not be allowed to fall
below 100 ppm chlorine. New solutions should be
mixed once old solutions become ineffective
WARNING
NEVER ATTEMPT TO REPAIR OR PERFORM
MAINTENANCE ON FREEZER UNTIL THE MAIN
ELECTRICAL POWER HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED.
B. DAILY
1.The exterior should be kept clean at all times to
preserve the lustre of the stainless steel. A mild
alkaline cleaner is recommended. Use a soft
cloth or sponge to apply the cleaner.
CAUTION
DO NOT USE ACID CLEANERS, STRONG CAUSTIC COMPOUNDS OR ABRASIVE MA TERIALS TO
CLEAN ANY P ART OF THE FREEZER EXTERIOR
OR PLASTIC P ARTS.
GENERAL PURPOSE CLEANERS
General purpose cleaners do not have the ability to
remove milkstone. Milkstone will become a problem
if not remedied with additional products and
procedures.
C. WEEKLY
1.Check "O" Rings and rear seal for excessive
wear and replace if necessary.
2.Remove the drip tray by gently lifting up to
disengage from the support and pulling out.
Clean behind the drip tray and front of the
freezer with a soap solution.

D. MONTHLY
CAUTION
THE FREEZER HAS AN AIR COOLED CONDENSER AND MUST HA VE PROPER AIR CIRCULATION. DO NOT PLACE RIGHT SIDE OF
FREEZER ANY CLOSER THAN 3 INCHES FROM
THE WALL. FAILURE TO CLEAN THE CONDENSER FILTER ON A REGULAR BASIS MAY
RESUL T IN SERIOUS FREEZER DAMAGE AN D
COULD VOID FREEZER WARRANTY.
1. Remove the phillips head screws from the lower side
of the right side panel and pull the side panel down and
out.
2. Remove the condenser filter and clean in warm soapy
water. Rinse in clean water and squeeze dry, taking
care not to damage the filter in any way.
3. Replace the condenser filter and side panel.
E. SEMI-ANNUALLY
1. Check drive belt for proper tension. Push belt in with
one finger, belt should deflect about 3/8".
2. Lubricate condenser fan motor with S.A.E. 20 weight
oil. Three to six drops is required.
CAUTION
DO NOT OVER LUBRICA TE; RESUL TING DAMAGE COULD CAUSE MOTOR F AILURE.
3.14 EXTENDED STORAGE
Refer to the following steps for storage of the freezer over
any long period of shutdown time:
A. Turn the OFF-ON switch to the OFF position.
B. Disconnect (unplug) from the electrical supply source.
C. Clean thoroughly with a warm detergent all parts that
come in contact with the mix. Rinse in clean water and
dry parts. Do not sanitize.
NOTE
Do not let the cleaning solution stand in the hopper
or in the freezer barrel during the shutdown period.
D. Remove, disassemble and clean the front door, mix
inlet regulator and auger parts. Place the auger flights
and the front auger support bushing in a plastic bag
with a moist paper towel to prevent them from becoming brittle.
