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 R134a refrigerant that conforms to
the AHI standard 700 specification. The use of any
other refrigerant may expose users and operators to
unexpected safety hazards.
WARNING:R404A refrigerantusedin
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

Compressor Warranty Disclaimer
The refrigeration compressor(s) 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
refrigerantsarebeingadvertisedasdrop--in
replacements for numerous applications. It should be
noted that, in the event of ordinary service to this
machine’s refrigeration system, only the refrigerantspecified 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. T aylor 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.

brush--clean the mix hopper and mix inlet hole.
Step 4
Place the power switch in the “WASH” position. This
will agitate the cleaning solution in the freezing
cylinder.
Step 5
Place an empty pail beneath the door spout and move
the draw handle to the right. Draw off all the cleaning
solution. When the solution stops flowing from the door
spout, move the draw handle to the left, and place the
power switch in the “OFF” position.
Step 1
Prepare a sink with a cleaning solution (examples:
Kay--5Ror Stera--SheenR). USE WARM WATER
AND FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER’S SPECIFICATIONS. (If another approved cleaner is used, dilute
according to label instructions. IMPORTANT: Follow
the label directions. Too STRONG of a solution can
cause parts damage, while too MILD of a solution will
not provide adequate cleaning.) Make sure all brushes
provided with the freezer are available for brush
cleaning.
Step 2
Remove the o--ring and seal from the drive shaft.
Remove the o--ring and the bearing from the torque
rotor.
Step 3
Remove the draw valve, ice buster, front bearing, and
gasket from the freezer door. Remove all o--rings.
Note: To remove the o--ring, 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 until
it rolls out of the groove and can be removed easily.
Step 4
Thoroughly brush--clean all disassembled parts in the
cleaning solution, making sure all lubricant and mix film
is removed. Place all the cleaned parts on a clean, dry
surfacetoairdry.
Disassembly
Step 1
BE SURE THE CONTROL SWITCH IS IN THE “OFF”
POSITION.
Step 2
Remove the handscrews, freezer door, beater
assembly, torque rotor, scraper blade and drive shaft
from the freezing cylinder. Take these parts to the sink
for cleaning.
Step 3
Remove the front drip tray and the splash shield. Take
these parts to the sink for cleaning.
Step 4
Remove the rear drip pan from the front panel.
Note: If the drip pan is filled with an excessive amount
of mix, it is an indication the drive shaft seal should be
replaced or properly lubricated.

Section 7Important: O perator 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 1. Thoroughlycleanandsanitizemachine
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 feed
tube, which extends from the 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 to have a generous
amount of cleaning solution on the brush.
j 5. IF LOCAL HEALTH CODES PERMIT THE
USE OF RERUN, make sure the mix rerun is
stored in a sanitized, covered stainless steel
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 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. Temperature of mix in mix hopper and walk--in
cooler should be below 40_F. ( 4 . 4_C.).
Regular Maintenance Checks:
j 1. Replace scraper blades that are nicked,
damaged or worn down. Before installing
beater, be certain the scraper blade is properly
attached.
j 2. Check rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive mix leakage in 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 square drive
socket clean and free of lubricant and mix
deposits.
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. Check the condenser(s) 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.
Note: For machines equipped with an air filter,
it will be necessary to vacuum clean the filters
on a monthly schedule.

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 to be left unheated and subject to freezing
conditions. Disconnect the freezer from the main
power source to prevent possible electrical damage.
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, and place in a
protected dry place. Rubber trim parts and gaskets
can be protected by wrapping with moisture--proof
paper. All parts should be thoroughly cleaned of dried
mix or lubrication accumulations which attract mice
and other vermin.
