Electrical Connections

In the United States, this equipment is intended to be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70-1987. The purpose of the NEC code is the practical safeguarding of persons and property from hazards arising from the use of electricity. This code contains provisions considered necessary for safety. In all other areas of the world, equipment should be installed in accordance with the existing local codes. Please contact your local authorities.

FOLLOW YOUR LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES!

Each unit requires one power supply for each data label on the unit. Check the data label(s) on the freezer for branch circuit overcurrent protection or fuse, circuit ampacity, and other electrical specifications. Refer to the wiring diagram provided inside of the electrical box for proper power connections.

CAUTION: THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED! FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY FROM ELECTRICAL SHOCK!

This unit is provided with an equipotential grounding lug that is to be properly attached to the rear of the frame by the authorized installer. The installation location is marked by the equipotential bonding symbol (5021 of IEC 60417-1) on both the removable panel and the equipment’s frame.

Electrical Hook- up Installation

For 60 Cycle, 1 PH, Supplied With Cord and Plug

Refrigerant

This equipment is supplied with a 3- wire cord and grounding type plug for connection to a single phase, 60 cycle, branch circuit supply. This unit must be plugged into a properly grounded receptacle. The cord and plug provided for 115/60/1 and 208- 230/60/1 is 15 amp.; therefore the wall outlet must also be 15 amp. Check the data label located on the rear of the freezer for electrical specifications.

IMPORTANT: In order to secure the compressor and to minimize vibration during shipment, two shipping bolts have been added to the base pan of the unit. Before installation, these bolts must be removed.

Permanent wiring may be used if local codes require it. Instructions for conversion to permanent wiring are as follows:

IMPORTANT: This procedure must be

performed by a qualified electrician.

1. Be sure the freezer is electrically disconnected.

2. Remove the appropriate panel and locate the control box at the back of the freezer.

In consideration of our environment, Taylor uses only earth friendly HFC refrigerants. The HFC refrigerant used in this unit is R404A. This refrigerant is generally considered non-toxic and non-flammable, with an Ozone Depleting Potential (ODP) of zero (0).

However, any gas under pressure is potentially hazardous and must be handled with caution. NEVER fill any refrigerant cylinder completely with liquid. Filling the cylinder to approximately 80% will allow for normal expansion.

Use only R404A refrigerant that conforms to the AHRI standard 700 specification. The use of any other refrigerant may expose users and operators to unexpected safety hazards.

Refrigerant liquid sprayed onto the skin may cause serious damage to tissue. Keep eyes and skin protected. If refrigerant burns should occur, flush immediately with cold water. If burns are severe, apply ice packs and contact a physician immediately.

3. Remove the factory- installed cord and strain relief bushing.

4. Route incoming permanent wiring through 7/8” (22 mm) hole in base pan.

5. Connect two power supply leads, attach ground (earth) wire to the grounding lug inside the electrical box.

6. Be sure unit is properly grounded before applying power.

FOLLOW YOUR LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES!

Taylor reminds technicians to be cautious of government laws regarding refrigerant recovery, recycling, and reclaiming systems. If you have any questions regarding these laws, please contact the factory Service Department.

WARNING: R404A refrigerant used in conjunction with polyolester oils is extremely moisture absorbent. When opening a refrigeration system, the maximum time the system is open must not exceed 15 minutes. Cap all open tubing to prevent humid air or water from being absorbed by the oil.

Section 2 To the Operator

Your freezer has been carefully engineered and manufactured to give you dependable operation. If the Taylor Model 142 is properly operated and cared for, it will produce a consistent, quality product. Like all mechanical products, this machine will require cleaning and maintenance. A minimum amount of care is necessary if the operating procedures outlined in this manual are followed closely.

This Operator’s Manual should be read before operating or performing any maintenance on your equipment.

Your Taylor freezer will NOT eventually compensate and correct for any errors during the set- up or filling operations. Thus, the initial assembly and priming procedures are of extreme importance. It is important that the personnel responsible for the equipment’s operation study this manual in order to be properly trained.

In the event you should require technical assistance, please contact your local authorized T aylorDistributor.

Note: Your Taylor warranty is valid only if the parts are authorized Taylor parts, purchased from the local authorized Taylor Distributor, and only if all required service work is provided by an authorized Taylor service technician. Taylor reserves the right to deny warranty claims on units or parts if non- T aylor approved parts or incorrect refrigerant were installed in the unit, system modifications were performed beyond factory recommendations, or it is determined that the failure was caused by abuse, misuse, neglect, or failure to follow all operating instructions. For full details of your Taylor Warranty, please see the Limited Warranty section in this manual.

Note: Constant research results in steady improvements; therefore, information in this manual is subject to change without notice.

If the crossed out wheeled bin symbol is affixed to this product, it signifies that this product is compliant with the EU Directive as well as other similar legislation in effect after August 13, 2005. Therefore, it must be collected separately after its use is completed, and cannot be disposed as unsorted

municipal waste. The user is responsible for returning the product to the appropriate collection facility, as specified by your local code.

For additional information regarding applicable local laws, please contact the municipal facility and/or local distributor.

Compressor Warranty Disclaimer

The refrigeration compressor(s) on this unit are warranted for the term stated in the Limited Warranty section in this manual. However, due to the Montreal Protocol and the U.S. Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, many new refrigerants are being tested and developed, thus seeking their way into the service industry. Some of these new refrigerants are being advertised as drop- in replacements for numerous applications. It should be noted that in the event of ordinary service t o this unit’s refrigeration system,

only the refrigerant specified on the affixed data label should be used. The unauthorized use of

alternate refrigerants will void your Taylor compressor warranty. It is the unit owner’s responsibility to make this fact known to any technician he employs.

It should also be noted that Taylor does not warrant the refrigerant used in its equipment. For example, if the refrigerant is lost during the course of ordinary service to this machine, Taylor has no obligation to either supply or provide its replacement either at billable or unbillable terms. Taylor does have the obligation to recommend a suitable replacement if the original refrigerant is banned, obsoleted, or no longer available during the five year warranty of the compressor.

Taylor will continue to monitor the industry and test new alternates as they are being developed. Should a new alternate prove, through our testing, that it would be accepted as a drop- in replacement, then the above disclaimer would become null and void. To find out the current status of an alternate refrigerant as it relates to your compressor warranty, call the local Taylor Distributor or the Taylor Factory. Be prepared to provide the Model/Serial Number of the unit in question.

Symbol Definitions

To better communicate in the International arena, the words on many of our operator switches and buttons have symbols to indicate their functions. Your Taylor equipment is designed with these International symbols.

The following chart identifies the symbol definitions used on the operator switches.

=ON/AUTO

=OFF

= WASH

Figure 1

Power Switch

The center position is the OFF position. The left position is WASH which activates the beater motor only. The right position is the AUTO position, which activates the beater motor and the refrigeration.

Indicator Light - MIX LOW

A mix level indicating light is located on the front of the machine. When the light is on, it indicates that the mix hopper has a low supply of mix. The hopper should be refilled immediately. Always maintain at least 2” (5.1 cm.) of mix in the hopper. If mix is not added to the hopper, the freezing cylinder may freeze. This will cause damage to the beater assembly and to the freezer door.

Model 142Important: To the Operator

Standby Switch

This push button switch determines which mode of operation the freezing cylinder is operating in. If the center button of this switch is in the “OUT” position and it is not illuminated, the unit will operate in the normal product dispensing mode when the toggle switch is placed in the AUTO position.

If the center button of the standby switch is in the “IN” position and is illuminated, the machine will operate in the STANDBY mode when the toggle switch is placed in the AUTO position.

Reset Mechanism

Should an overload condition occur, the freezer will automatically shut down. To properly reset the freezer, place the toggle switch in the OFF position. Wait two or three minutes; then press the reset button located in the side panel. Place the toggle switch in the WASH position and observe the freezer’s performance; return the toggle switch to the AUTO position.

Temperature Adjustments

Temperature adjustments should be performed only by an authorized Taylor Service Representative.

When the unit is operating in the AUTO mode, the metering hole should be placed in the downward position.

Figure 3

When the unit is placed in the STANDBY mode, the feed tube is inverted so the end without the metering hole is placed in the downward position.

Feed Tube

The feed tube meters a combination of mix and air into the freezing cylinder. If mix is not added to the hopper, the freezing cylinder may freeze. This will cause damage to the beater assembly and to the freezer door. Depending upon the product being run, you may wish to contact your local authorized Taylor Distributor to make a slight adjustment in the feed tube.

One end of the feed tube has a metering hole in the side and the other end does not.

Figure 2

Figure 4

Note: Make sure the level of mix is below the metering hole in the side of the feed tube. Failure

to follow this instruction may result in lower product quality when normal operation is resumed.
