A. SPIGOT SWITCH
The SPIGOT switch will automatically actuate the auger drive and refrigeration systems when the spigot is opened to dispense product. When the spigot is closed, the drive motor and compressor will remain "on" until the product in the barrel reaches the proper consistency, or temperature.
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.
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.
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).
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.
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. 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.
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.
WARNING
THE UNITED ST ATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRI­CUL TURE 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.
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 30 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.
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.
CAUTION PROLONGED CONTACT OF SANITIZER WITH FREEZER MA Y CAUSE CORROSION OF ST AIN­LESS STEEL P ARTS.

Page 17
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).
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.)
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 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.
Figure 12. Clean Control
D. Clean sides of hopper, mix inlet regulator and under
side of hopper cover using a sanitized soft bristle brush dipped in the sanitizing solution. (Fig. 13).
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 3 gallons (11.4 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.
F. Place the OFF-ON switch in the ON position, then
press the PUSH TO FREEZE switch until the freezer starts.
Figure 13. Sanitizing Hopper
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.

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 sanitizing efforts.
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.
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 Additional Information).
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.
15
Page 24
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 AND 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.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
WARNING
BOTH SUCTION SIDE SOLENOIDS MUST BE ACTIVATED FOR PROPER PURGING OF SYSTEM. USE POWER CORD P ART NUMBER
430119 OR EQUIVALENT FOR DIRECT
CONNECTION.
4.1 REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
The refrigeration system (Fig.28) is a dual-purpose system.
Figure 28. Refrigeration System
17
Page 26
The system is designed to efficiently operate both the hopper and evaporator simultaneously at different temperatures. The proper charge is indicated on the nameplate and on the compressor.
The compressor has an internal high-pressure bypass. This bypass eliminates the need for a high-pressure cutout switch. F111 models must have a high-pressure cutout switch.
4.2 EVAPORATORS
The hopper and barrel evaporators are wrapped with copper tubing and thermomastic, then insulated with foam insulation.
4.3 COMPRESSOR WINDING TEST
To test the compressor motor windings for possible problems, perform the following steps:
Warning
DISCONNECT FREEZER FROM ELECTRICAL SUPPLY SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING.

NOTE
The following values are for the Copeland compressor Model CRA1. For other models or brands, consult the manufacturer’s service data manual.
1. Remove the Phillips head screw from the bottom of the left side panel and slide the side panel down and out.
2. For the E1 1 1, remove the compressor terminal cover by inserting a standard screwdriver between the terminal cover and compressor cover frame: then, gently pry off from the right side, then the left. For the F1 11, insert a screwdriver between the retainer clip and cover, then twist. (Figure 29).
3. Remove wires C, R, and S at compressor. Refer to Figure 30 for compressor connections.
E111 F111
4. Connect an ohmmeter to terminals C and R. Resistance through the run winding should be 3.12 to 3.60 ohms with the ohmmeter set at ohms x 1 (Figure 31).

Figure 32. Electrical Box
4.4 CONDENSERS
The air-cooled condenser is a copper tube and aluminum fin type. Condensing is totally dependent upon airflow. A plugged condenser filter, condenser, or restrictions in the louvered panel will restrict airflow. This will lower the capacity of the system and damage the compressor.
Figure 33. Condenser and Filter
The condenser and condenser filter require periodic cleaning. To clean, refer to the following procedures.
WARNING
DISCONNECT FREEZER FROM ELECTRICAL SUPPLY SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING.
1. Remove the Phillips head screw from the bottom of the right side panel and back panel, then slide the panels down and out.
2. To remove the condenser filter, grasp the top and pull off. Visually inspect for dirt. If the filter is dirty, shake or brush excess dirt off the filter and wash in warm, soapy water. Once the filter is clean, rinse thoroughly in warm, clear water and shake dry , taking care not to damage the filter in any way .
3. Visually inspect the condenser for dirt by shining a light through the coil from the back (inside) of the condenser (Figure 34).
The condenser must be kept clean of dirt and grease. The freezer must have a minimum of 3” (7.5 cm) of

4. If the condenser is dirty, place a wet towel over the front (outside) of the condenser .
5. Using compressed air or a CO2 tank, blow out the dirt from the back (inside) of the condenser. Most of the dirt will cling to the wet towel.
NOTE
This procedure will result in a very loud noise.
6. An alternative method of cleaning the condenser is to use a condenser brush and vacuum.
NOTE
If the condenser is not kept clean, loss of refrigeration efficiency will result; causing extended run time or soft product consistency.
4.5 T.X.V.
T.X.V. adjustment is not recommended. Any attempt to adjust the T.X.V. will cause the freezer to be totally out of calibration.
4.7 T.X.V. REMOVAL
CAUTION
IF A T.X.V. REPLACEMENT IS NEEDED, A HEA TSINK (WET CLOTH) MUST BE USED TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE V AL VE.
WARNING
DISCONNECT FREEZER FROM ELECTRICAL SUPPLY SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING.
1. Remove the two Phillips head screws from the bottom of the left side panel and slide the panels down and out (Figure 36).
2. Remove the bulb from the suction line exiting from the evaporator (Figure 36).
A T.X.V. (Thermostatic Expansion Valve) (Figure 35) is used to meter the refrigerant to the evaporator. The self-regulating T.X.V. is preset at the factory.
3. Recover the refrigerant charge, and then leave a port open to prevent pressure buildup when applying heat.

Figure 36. Bulb Removal
4.8 T.X.V. INSTALLATION
To replace the T.X.V., perform the following proce­dures:
CAUTION
WHEN PLACING THE T .X.V ., A HEATSINK (WET CLOTH) MUST BE USED TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE V AL VE.
1. Position the T.X.V . with heat sink so the liquid line and suction line correspond with the proper valve ports.
2. Braze the liquid line and suction line to the T.X.V. by using the appropriate brazing material.
3. Remove the heatsink from the T .X.V.
4. Remove any insulation from the T .X.V . and immediate surrounding lines.
5. Remove or push back any foam insulation from surrounding lines.
6. Apply a heatsink (wet cloth) to the valve dome (Figure
37).
7. Unsweat the suction line and liquid line from the T .X.V . and remove.
4. Replace any foam insulation to the surrounding lines.
5. Replace any insulation to the T.X.V. and surrounding areas.
NOTE
The liquid line from the condenser is bonded to the suction line to provide a heat exchange to help protect the compressor from liquid slugging. This also assures that sub-cooled liquid is being supplied to the expansion devices.
6. Install the bulb on the suction line exiting the evaporator (Figure 38). The T.X.V . bulb should always be mounted on the top of the horizontal line. Good contact between the bulb and suction line is necessary for proper operation of the valve. The bulb must also be well insulated.
7. Replace filter drier using the appropriate brazing material (Figure 39).

4.10 E.P.R. VALVE ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the E.P.R. valve, refer to the following procedures:
1. Remove the Phillips head screws from the bottom of the front panel and remove the panel by sliding down and out.
2. Remove the cap from the E.P.R. Schrader access fitting (Figure 40).
3. Install a 0-100 P.S.I.G. gauge onto the E.P.R. Schrader access fitting.
4. Start the refrigeration cycle and read the pressure.
NOTE
The ideal E.P .R. valve setting (50-52 P.S.I.G .) will not allow mix to freeze to the walls of the hopper.
Figure 39. Filter Dryer
8. Once the T.X.V. and filter drier are installed, the refrigeration system must be leaked checked, purged and evacuated to 500 microns of mercury or less at either barrel outlet access fitting proceeding suction line solenoid valves.
4.9 HOPPER
A parallel refrigeration circuit feeds the hoppers. A capillary tube is used to meter the refrigerant to each hopper. An E.P.R. (Evaporator Pressure Regulating) valve is used to control the refrigerant flow at the outlets. The E.P.R. valve controls the hopper pressure so during heavy dispensing periods, hopper temperatures will not drop and freeze the mix in the hopper. The adjustable E.P.R. valve is preset at the factory. If the hopper temperature is too cold or too warm, an E.P.R. valve adjustment may be necessary.
Figure 40. E.P.R. Schrader Access Fitting
5. If the pressure gauge reading does not fall between the 50-52 P.S.I.G. parameters, proceed with the following steps.
6. Remove the plastic cap and loosen the locknut on the E.P.R. valve. Then, using a small screwdriver, turn the valve stem one-forth (90°) turn counterclockwise for more cooling or clockwise for less cooling (Figure 41).
22
Page 31
3. Remove the foam insulation from the surrounding lines.
4. Apply a heatsink (wet cloth) to the E.P .R. valve.
5. Unsweat the two refrigeration lines.
6. Remove the E.P.R. valve with the heat sink.
Figure 41. E.P.R. Valve Adjustment
7. Allow the system to level out for 3-5 minutes before taking another pressure reading.
8. Should the readings not fall between 50-52 P.S.I.G., repeat steps 6 and 7 until the correct reading is obtained.
9. Once the 50-52 P.S.I.G. reading is obt ained, tighten the locknut snugly , remove the pressure gauge, and replace the E.P.R. Schrader access fitting cap.
10.Replace all panels.
NOTE
The compressor ON and OFF times can also affect the temperature of the hopper. Procedures for adjusting compressor ON and OFF times will be discussed in Section 5.
4.12 E.P.R. VALVE INSTALLATION
To replace the E.P.R. valve, perform the following procedures:
CAUTION
WHEN REPLACING THE E.P.R. VALVE, A HEA TSINK (WET CLOTH) MUST BE USED TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE V AL VE.
1. Position the E.P.R. valve, with heatsink, so hopper evaporator outlet line and the line leading to the low side of the system correspond with the proper valve ports (Figure 42).
4.11 E.P.R. REMOVAL
CAUTION
A HEATSINK (WET CLOTH) MUST BE USED TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE V AL VE.
1. Assuming the necessary panels are removed for adjusting the E.P.R. valve, perform the following procedures for removing the E.P .R. valve.
WARNING

6. Once the E.P .R. valve and filter drier are inst alled, the refrigeration system must be leaked checked, purged and evacuated to 500 microns of mercury or less.
4.13 CAPILLARY TUBES
4. Remove the capillary tube drier assembly .
4.15 CAPILLARY TUBE INSTALLATION
1. Position the capillary tube drier assembly so the drier inlet tube is in position to be brazed. Braze using the appropriate material.
2. Position the capillary tube and braze the tube to the hopper inlet using the appropriate material. (Figure
44)
Capillary tube replacement may be necessary if the correct hopper cooling cannot be obtained. A plugged or restricted capillary tube or drier will result in a warm capillary tube at the end going to the hopper when the freezer is running. Also, the pressure reading at the E.P.R. valve will equal suction pressure at the compressor if the tube is totally blocked.
4.14 CAPILLARY TUBE REMOVAL
WARNING
DISCONNECT FREEZER FROM ELECTRICAL SUPPLY SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING.
1. Remove the Phillips head screws from the left side and front panels and pull the panels down and out.
2. Recover the refrigerant charge, then leave a port open to prevent pressure buildup when applying heat.
3. Unsweat capillary tube drier assembly at the drier inlet and at the hopper inlets.
Figure 44. Capillary Tube and Drier Assembly
3. Replace the foam insulation to the hopper inlet connections.
4. Replace filter drier using the appropriate brazing material (Figure 45).
NOTE
Before unsweating capillary tubes at the hopper inlets, it will be necessary to remove the foam insulation from the capillary at that connection.

Page 33
5. Once the capillary tube drier assembly and filter drier are installed, the refrigeration system must be leaked checked, purged and evacuated to 500 microns of mercury or less.
4.16 SOLENOID VALVE
To check for leaking valve seats, follow the procedure outlined below.
NOTE
Freezer barrels must not contain frozen product for this test.
1. T o check the liquid line solenoid valve seats, we must disconnect one of the electrical lines from each of the liquid line solenoids. Protect the terminal end of the disconnected electrical line with a piece of electrical tape. Then, connect the low side pressure gauges to the access fittings. Force the freezer to run by turning the OFF/ON switch to the ON position and opening the spigot. The gauge should show approximately 9” of vacuum after 1 minute. If the gauge does not reach 1” of vacuum in 1 minute and hold, you may have a leaking solenoid valve seat or leaking valves in the compressor. (Figure 46)

CONTROLS
5.1 CONTROL SYSTEM TYPE 4
The control system is the brain of the freezer. To understand how to service the freezer, it is essential to understand how the control system operates. The Type 4 control is a consistency control and a temperature control. To change functions, it is necessary to cut one diode.
The control system when placed in the consistency mode monitors the consistency (firmness) of the product (mix) in the freezer evaporator. As the product freezes, the drive motor develops a higher torque (resistance) because of the freezing of the product in the evaporator. The energy used to operate the drive motor is in direct proportion to the torque. As the drive motor torque increase, so does the energy required to operate the motor. The program module senses the energy usage and shuts off the drive motor when the preprogrammed energy value is reached. The freezer will remain OFF until the temperature rises to the preset looking temperature (barrel temperature), then start.
The control system, when placed in the temperature mode, monitors the product temperature in the freezer evaporator. When the product temperature increases, the temperature sensor probe sends an electronic signal to the temperature control, which signals the compressor and drive motor to switch ON. When the temperature control is satisfied, the compressor will stop, and approximately 10 seconds later, the gearmotor will stop. The control also contains a hopper temperature control (separate hopper refrigeration system only) and liquid level indicator to monitor the mix temperature and level in the hopper. When servicing a freezer in the consistency mode, keep in mind the control system monitors product consistency. To minimize the beating of product in the evaporator, the program module will switch to the idle mode after the preset number of consistency cycles are complete. In the idle mode, the control is programmed to maintain a preset hopper and barrel temperature. In this idle mode, a servable consistency will not be held.
5.2 POWER BOARD
The power board is where the actual sensing of the drive motor energy usage occurs. The power board also supplies energy to the program module and sends electronic signals associated with the drive motor sensing. The 115 or 230/12 volt transformer and associated circuitry are used to supply D.C. voltages to operate the program module. There are two relays to transfer power to the compressor and drive motor
contactors. The power board has a third relay; it is used to transfer power to control the liquid line solenoid valve. The relay will close after 2 hours of red light idle causing the solenoid to open. There are four L.E.D.’s to monitor the board’s operation. One L.E.D. indicates power to the board. Two, three, and four indicate when the relays are active.
5.3 PROGRAM MODULE
The program module is a multifunction control. It can control product consistency or product temperature in the barrel, mix temperature in the hopper, and indicate mix level in the hopper. The board can be programmed to control the functions of various freezers producing many different products. To properly program the board, it is necessary to understand the purpose of each indicator light, switch, potentiometer, jumper, and the liquid crystal display.
A. Indicator Lights
1. The Power On indicator light, when illuminated indicates the program module is receiving D.C. power from the power board.
2. The HPR light, when illuminated, indicates power is available at J7 to control a separate refrigeration system.

C. Board Mounted Selectors There are three diodes which when removed from the
circuit cause changes in the control logic.
1. On/Off timers. This diode is removed from the circuit for those soft serve freezers without sensors for barrel or hopper temperature. In the operating consistency mode, the freezer will
start at the end of the set off time. The freezer will remain on until brought to consistency . After the selected number of operating cycles, the control will operate in idle mode strictly by On/ Off timing. If the diode is not removed from the circuit, the On/Off timers function only during the transition from normal operating set point to idle (STB) temperature set point.
2. Celsius Display Select. Selection for display is Fahrenheit and when removed from the circuit is Celsius.
3. Consistency/Temperature Mode Select. A removable diode is provided to change the control from basic function of a consistency control or a temperature control.
D . Calibration Function The Cycle Mode Switch (SW1) programs the number of
cycles before the freezer enters the idle mode (1-9). The calibration function is activated by placing the Cycle Mode Switch in the “0” position. Place the On/Off switch in the On position. The On Board pushbutton switch (SW4 SET) is used to advance through the steps. The following chart indicates the steps in calibrating the control.

F. Error Conditions
When the rotary switch SW1 is rotated to the Self-Test position (calibrate “0”), the control will be in the test mode. All outputs are off. The control will go through a self-test sequence and then “OK” will come on indicating the control functions tested are correct. These indicators will remain on until the rotary switch is turned. Failure of any function will cause “OK” to remain off and “ERR” to be displayed. The Push-To-Freeze light will flash the same number of times as the error code numeral, then pause and repeat. Any error causing condition must be corrected, then the power turned off, and back to ON for reset. Test to include the following:
1. Spigot Switch. The S pigot Switch is a normally closed held open switch. When the spigot is opened, the switch will close starting the freezer .
2. Push-To-Freeze Switch and Light. The Push­To-Freeze switch is a normally opened snap switch. When the switch is depressed, the switch will close starting the freezer. The red Push-To-Freeze light will be illuminated whenever the product is not at consistency . The red light, when flashing, indicates an error condition. The green Push-To-Freeze light will illuminate when the product is ready to serve and flashes just prior to reaching consistency .

NOTE
Error codes can be overridden by holding the clean switch on while power is applied, except for the clean error. Errors must be corrected to resume normal operation.
NOTE
Last error code can be read out on display log pushing SW4 while in run mode.
3. Hold Ready Switch and Light. The Hold Ready Switch is a normally open momentary switch. When the switch is depressed, and held for 5 seconds the switch will close placing the freezer in a continuous ready condition, and the Hold Ready light will illuminate. T o allow the automatic idle mode, push the Hold Ready Switch again, and hold for 5 seconds. Then after the preset number of consistency cycles, the freezer will go into the idle mode.
4. Clean Switch and Light. The Clean Switch is a normally open snap switch. When the Clean Switch is depressed, only the auger will run and the red Clean light will illuminate. To stop the auger, push the Clean Switch again.
NOTE
If the Clean Switch is operated three times within 10 seconds, the Push-To-Freeze Light on the panel will flash and this function will be disabled for 10 minutes.
NOTE
If the Clean switch is operated three times within 10 seconds, this will cause the Push-To-Freeze light to flash and the clean function will be disabled for 10 minutes. The power switch must remain on or the 10 minute timer will not time out. A flashing clean light is not an error. See the T roubleshooting Section for more error information.
G. Switches/Lights
NOTE
All models do not have the Hold Ready Switch/ Light or the Mix Low Switch/Light.
5. Mix Low Light. The Mix Low Light will illuminate when the mix level is below the probe. T o cancel the light, fill the hopper to above the probe.
6. Fine Control Adjuster. When the control is in the consistency mode, the adjusted has a range of 1.5 amps from the coarse control setting. When the control is in the temperature mode, the adjuster has a range of 4°F from the coarse control setting.

H. Freezer Operation
1. Consistency Mode. When the Off/On Switch is placed in the On position, the red Push-To­Freeze light will illuminate and the freezer will run in the idle mode. When the Push-T o-Freeze Switch is depressed, the freezer will run until it reaches consistency, then after the preset On Time, the green Ready Light will illuminate and the freezer will stop. When the spigot is opened, the drive will start immediately and the compressor 3-4 seconds later. When the spigot is closed, the freezer will run until it reaches consistency, then af ter the preset On Time, stop.
and run until the preset barrel temperature is reached, then after the preset On time, stop. When the spigot is opened, the drive will start immediately and the compressor 3-4 seconds later. When the spigot is closed, the freezer will run until it reaches temperature, then after the preset On time, stop.
5.4 CONTACTORS
The contactors are mounted in the electrical box located at the back of the freezer. Remove the back panel to access. There are three contactors, two to start the drive motor and one to start the compressor and condenser fan.
The barrel temperature is monitored. Whenever the temperature increases above the LKG temperature, the freezer will start and the product brought back to consistency. If no product is dispensed and the Push-To-Freeze switch is not depressed, the freezer will enter the idle mode after the preset number of consistency cycles. When in the idle mode, the freezer will cycle on the preset On and Off timers until the stand-by LKG temperature is reached. Whenever a product is dispensed or the Push-To-Freeze switch is depressed, the control will return to the freeze down cycle.
NOTE
The drive will run for 10 seconds every 5 minutes to circulate product. A normal on cycle will reset the Five-Minute Timer.
If the Hold Ready Switch is depressed and held for 5 seconds, the green light will illuminate and the freezer will not be allowed to enter the idle mode. It will then remain in the consistency mode. If the switch is depressed again and held for 5 seconds, the green Hold light will go off and the freezer will be allowed to enter the idle mode after the programmed number of consistency cycles.
The control modules send electronic signal to trigger the contactors. The electronic signal tells the relays when to operate the contactor for the compressor and condenser fan. A separate signal is used to control the drive motor contactor. The signal to the contactors are staggered so the drive motor will always start and stop 2-3 seconds before the compressor and condenser fan. By staggering the stopping and starting of the drive motor, maximum starting torque is available and voltage spikes are reduced. The contactors are electronically isolated from the program module. This feature is very important in case of an electrical short or component failure.
5.5 SPIGOT SWITCH
The spigot switch will automatically actuate the auger drive and refrigeration system when the spigot is opened to dispense product. When the spigot is closed, the drive motor and compressor will remain on until the product in the barrel reaches the proper consistency.
5.6 SPIGOT SWITCH REMOVAL
To remove a spigot switch, perform the following procedures:
2. Temperature Mode. To start the freezer, place the Off/On switch in the ON position. Push the P .T.F. switch to start the freezer. When the drive starts, release the Push-T o-Freeze switch. The freezer will run until the preset barrel temperature is reached, then after the preset On time stop and the green ready light will illuminate. When the barrel temperature rises to the LKG temperature, the freezer will start

CAUTION
A F ALSE DIAGNOSIS OF A SHORTAGE OF REFRIGERANT CHARGE IS POSSIBLE IN MODEL E131 AND F131 FREEZERS. IF ONL Y ONE SIDE IS OPERA TIONAL, THE INOPERA TIVE SIDE MA Y CONT AIN A SIGNIFICANT PERCENT AGE OF THE TOT AL SYSTEM CHARGE. THIS CAN ALSO OCCUR IF BOTH SIDES ARE OPERATIONAL BUT ONE SIDE IS IN IDLE MODE AND THE OTHER IN GREEN LIGHT MODE. THE SYSTEM SIGHTGLASS DURING OPERA TION OF THE GREEN LIGHT/OPERA TIVE SIDE MA Y SHOW BUBBLES OR A P ARTIALLY EMPTY CONDITION EVEN THOUGH THE T OTAL SYSTEM IS PROPERLY CHARGED. THE GREEN LIGHT/OPERATIVE SIDE WILL OPERATE BOTH SIDES OF THE FREEZER AND IN THE SAME MODE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
