Section 2 To the Operator

The blender you have purchased has been carefully
engineered and manufactured to give you
dependable operation. Mixing various candies,
cookies, fruits, nuts, liquid flavors, and other food
items into dairy slush or neutral slush has made
unlimited flavor combinations and product textures
available.

The development of counter blenders has made this
unlimited resource available to even very small retail
outlets and to those facilities where counter space is
limited.

The blender, when properly operated and cared for,
will produce a consistent, quality product. Like all
mechanical products, it 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. In the event that 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.

NSF approvals of this unit was obtained by the
Vita-Mix Corporation, 8615 Usher Road, Cleveland,
Ohio 44138.

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.
