Models 358 & 359To the Installer
Refrigerant
In consideration of our environment, Taylor
proudly 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.
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.
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 2To the Operator
Your freezers have been carefully engineered and
manufactured to give you dependable operation.
These units, when properly operated and cared for,
will produce a consistent quality product. Like all
mechanical products, they will require cleaning and
maintenance. A minimum amount of care and
attention 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 strongly
recommended that all personnel responsible for the
equipment's operation study these procedures
together in order to be properly trained and to make
sure that no misunderstandings exist.
In the event you should require technical assistance,
please contact your local authorized Taylor
Distributor.
Note: Warranty is valid only if the parts are
authorized Taylor parts, purchased from an
authorized Taylor Distributor, and the required
service work is provided by an authorized Taylor
service technician. Taylor reserves the right to deny
warranty claims on equipment or parts if
non-approved parts or refrigerant were installed in
the machine, system modifications were performed
beyond factory recommendations, or it is determined
that the failure was caused by neglect or abuse.
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 compressors on this machine are
warranted for the term indicated on the warranty
card accompanying this machine. 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 to this
machine's refrigeration system, only the refrigerant
specified on the affixed data label should be
used. The unauthorized use of alternate refrigerants
will void your compressor warranty. It will be the
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.

Power Switch
The middle position is “OFF”. The left position is
“WASH”, which activates the beater motor only. The
right position is “AUTO”, which activates the beater
motor and the refrigeration system.
Figure 7
Indicator Light - “Mix Out”
The “MIX OUT” light is located on the front of the
machine. When the “MIX OUT” light begins to flash,
the mix hopper has been almost completely
exhausted and has an insufficient supply of mix to
operate the freezer. Only a small amount of mix
(less than 1 pint) is left in the hopper.
At this time the “AUTO” mode is locked out and the
freezer shuts down, protecting the freezer from
costly damage due to a freeze-up. To initiate the
refrigeration system, add mix to the mix hopper. The
freezer will automatically begin operation.
Reset Button
Note: Do not use metal objects to press
the reset button. Failure to follow this instruction
may result in serious electrical shock.
The reset button is located in the left side panel on
the Model 358. The reset buttons are located in the
lower front panel on the Model 359. The reset
mechanism protects the beater motor from an
overload condition. Should an overload occur, the
reset mechanism will trip.
To properly reset the freezer, place the power switch
in the “OFF” position. Press the reset button firmly.
Place the power switch in the “WASH” position and
observe the freezer's performance. Open the side
access panel to check if the beater motor is turning
the drive shaft in a clockwise (from operator end)
direction without binding.
If it is turning properly, place the power switch in the
“AUTO” position to resume normal operation. If the
freezer shuts down again, contact a service
technician.
Air Tube
The air tube is designed with a hole on one end.
After priming the machine, install the air tube into
the mix inlet hole with the hole end down. Every time
the draw handle is raised, new mix and air from the
hopper will flow down into the freezing cylinder. This
will keep the freezing cylinder properly loaded and
maintain overrun.

Section 6Operating Procedures
The Model 358 has been selected to show you the
pictured step-by-step operating procedures for both
models contained in this manual. These models, for
practical purposes of operation, are the same.
These models store 20 quarts (18.9 liters) of mix in
each hopper. The mix flows by gravity from the
hopper to the freezing cylinder through an air tube.
We begin our instructions at the point where we
enter the store in the morning and find the parts
disassembled and laid out to air dry from the
previous night's cleaning.
These opening procedures will show you how to
assemble these parts into the freezer, sanitize them,
and prime the freezer with fresh mix in preparation
to serve your first portion.

Step 5
Place an empty pail beneath the door spout and
raise the draw handle. Draw off all the cleaning
solution. When the solution stops flowing from the
door spout, lower the draw handle and place the
power switch in the “OFF” position.
Repeat Steps 1 through 5 for the other side of the
freezer on the Model 359.
Step 2
Remove the seal(s) from the drive shaft(s).
Step 3
Remove the scraper blade clips from the scraper
blades.
Step 4
From the freezer door(s) remove:
Sgasket(s)
Sfront bearing(s)
Sdraw valve(s)
Remove all o-rings.
Note: To remove o-rings, use a single service towel
to grasp the o-ring. Apply pressure in an upward
direction until the o-ring pops out of its groove. With
the other hand, push the top of the o-ring forward. It
will roll out of the groove and can be easily removed.
If there is more than one o-ring to be removed,
always remove the rear o-ring first. This will allow
the o-ring to slide over the forward rings without
falling into the open grooves.

Step 6
Remove the drive shaft drip pan(s) from the front
panel and take to the sink for cleaning.
Note: If the drive shaft drip pan is filled with an
excessive amount of mix, refer to the
Troubleshooting Guide.
Step 7
Thoroughly brush clean all disassembled parts in the
cleaning solution, making sure all lubricant and mix
film is removed. Take particular care to brush clean
the draw valve core in the freezer door. Place all the
cleaned parts on a clean dry surface to air dry
overnight.
Step 8
Wipe clean all exterior surfaces of the freezer.

Section 7Important: Operator Checklist
During Cleaning and Sanitizing
ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL HEALTH CODES.
Cleaning and sanitizing schedules are governed
by federal, state, or local regulatory agencies,
and must be followed accordingly. If the unit
has a “Standby mode”, it must not be used in
lieu of proper cleaning and sanitizing
procedures and frequencies set forth by the
ruling health authority. The following check
points should be stressed during the cleaning
and sanitizing operations.
CLEANING AND SANITIZING MUST BE
PERFORMED DAILY.
Troubleshooting Bacterial Count
j 5. IF LOCAL HEALTH CODES PERMIT THE
USE OF RERUN, make sure the mix rerun is
stored in a sanitized, covered, NSF approved
stainless steel rerun container and used the
following day. DO NOT prime the machine
with rerun. When using rerun, skim off the
foam and discard; then mix the rerun with
fresh mix in a ratio of 50/50 during the day's
operation.
j 6. On a designated day of the week, run the mix
as low as feasible and discard after closing.
This will break the rerun cycle and reduce the
possibility of high bacteria and coliform
counts.
j 7. Properly prepare the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions. Read and follow the label directions
carefully. Too strong of a solution may
damage the parts and too weak of a solution
will not do an adequate job of cleaning or
sanitizing.
j 8. The temperature of the mix in the mix hopper
and walk-in cooler should be below 40_F.
(4.4_C.).
j 1. Thoroughly clean and sanitize the machine
regularly, including complete disassembly and
brush cleaning.
j 2. Use all brushes supplied for thorough
cleaning. The brushes are specially designed
to reach all mix passageways.
j 3. Use the white bristle brush to clean the mix
inlet hole which extends from the mix hopper
down to the rear of the freezing cylinder.
j 4. Use the black bristle brush to thoroughly
clean the rear shell bearing located at the rear
of the freezing cylinder. Be sure there is a
generous amount of cleaning solution on the
brush.
Regular Maintenance Checks
j 1. Replace scraper blades that are nicked or
damaged. Before installing the beater, be
certain that the scraper blades are properly
attached.
j 2. Check the rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive mix leakage in the drive shaft drip
pan) and be certain it is properly cleaned.
j 3. Using a screwdriver and cloth towel, keep the
rear shell bearing and the female hex drive
socket clean and free of lubricant and mix
deposits.
Models 358 & 359Important: Operator Checklist
21
j 4. Dispose of o-rings and seals if they are worn,
torn, or fit too loosely, and replace with new
ones.
j 5. Follow all lubricating procedures as outlined in
“Assembly”.
j 6. If your machine is air cooled, check the
condenser for accumulation of dirt and lint.
Dirty condensers will reduce the efficiency
and capacity of the machine. Condensers
should be cleaned monthly with a soft brush.
Never use screwdrivers or other metal
probes to clean between the fins.
Winter Storage
If the place of business is to be closed during the
winter months, it is important to protect the freezer
by following certain precautions, particularly if the
building is subject to freezing conditions.
Disconnect the freezer from the main power source
to prevent possible electrical damage.
On water cooled freezers, disconnect the water
supply. Use air pressure to blow out any water
remaining in the condensers. This is extremelyimportant. Failure to follow this procedure may
cause severe and costly damage to the refrigeration
system.
Note: For machines equipped with an air
filter, it will be necessary to vacuum clean the
filters on a monthly schedule.
CAUTION: Always disconnect
electrical power prior to cleaning the
condenser. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in electrocution.
Your local Taylor Distributor can perform this service
for you.
Wrap detachable parts of the freezer such as
beater, blades, drive shaft, and freezer door. Place
these parts in a protected, dry place. Rubber trim
parts and gaskets can be protected by wrapping
them with moisture-proof paper. All parts should be
thoroughly cleaned of dried mix or lubrication, which
attract mice and other vermin.
