Refrigeration Charging and Line
Construction
The dispensing unit is shipped with a refrigerant
holding charge that is sufficient enough to prevent
moisture contamination (8 oz./227 g. HP62).This
holding charge will become part of the total system
charge.
The condensing unit is shipped with the total amount
of refrigerant required for a typical installation of 75 ft.
or less with a single dispenser. For other installation
configurations, use the following chart for line sizing
and for adding required refrigerant.
Note: Maximum line length is 150 ft. (45.7 m).
Note: To meet individual installation requirements,
lines must be purchased and constructed locally .
Line Size
Liquid Line - Single or dual dispensers require 3/8”
refrigerant grade copper tubing (hard or soft).
Note: Insulating the liquid line is recommended if it is
exposed to high ambient conditions. This will reduce
heat accumulation and prevent the formation of flash
gas in the liquid line.

Normally, any straight run of tubing must be supported
near each end of the run. Long runs require additional
supports. As a guide, 3/8” to 3/4” copper should be
supported every 5 ft. (1.5 m). When changing
directions, no corner should be left unsupported.
Supports should be placed a maximum of 2 ft. (.61 m)
in each direction from the corner. If soft copper tube is
used, make sure it is not kinked or flattened. If hard
drawn copper tubing is used, use only long radius
elbows.

Step 2
Thoroughly clean and lubricate the mating surfaces of
the quick connect/disconnects.
Note: Use polyolester oil to lubricate the surfaces.
Step 3
Manually thread the coupling halves together to insure
proper mating of the threads.
Step 4
Using proper sized wrenches, tighten the coupling
halves until the round, flat surfaces of inner coupling
bodies completely depress one another.
Step 5
Once the flat surfaces are completely depressed,
tighten the couplings an additional 1/4 turn. This step
is necessary to insure that the knife edge of the seal
seats into the brass seat of the coupling halves,
forming a leak-proof joint (metal seal).
Step 6
Check all connections for leaks.
Step 7
Insulate all exposed suction line tubing and fittings.
Step 8
Set the pump down switch located in the condensing
unit. For indoor condensing unit application:
Set cut in at 30 PSIG (207 kPa).
Set cut out at 5 PSIG (34 kPa).
For outdoor condensing unit application:
Set cut in at 20 PSIG (138 kPa).
Set cut out at 0 PSIG (0 kPa).
Pump down pressure readings are to be taken at the
refrigeration line access fittings at the condensing unit.
Step 9
Allow the dispenser to run until the condensing unit
cycles off. Verify the proper pump down pressure
switchsetting.SeeStep8of“Refrigeration

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. 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.
The Taylor Company 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 alternaterefrigerant asit relates to your
compressor warranty, call the local Taylor Distributor
or the T aylor Factory. Be prepared to provide the
Model/Serial Number of the unit in question.

Section 7Important: Operator Checklist
During Cleaning and Sanitizing
ALWAYS FOLLOW LOCAL HEALTH CODES.
Cleaning and sanitizing schedules are governed by
your State or local regulatory agencies and must be
followed accordingly. The following check points
should be stressed during the cleaning and sanitizing
operations.
WERECOMMENDDAILYCLEANINGAND
SANITIZING.
T roubleshooting Bacterial Count
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
product 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.
Regular Maintenance Checks
j 1. Replace scraper blades that are nicked or
damaged.
j 2. Before installing the beater, be certain that the
scraper blades are properly attached over the
pins.
j 3. Check the rear shell bearing for signs of wear
(excessive product leakage from the rear drip
pans to the front drip tray).
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(s) for accumulation of dirt and lint.
Dirty condensers will reduce the efficiency and
capacity of the machine. Condensers should be
cleaned monthly. Use a soft brush to clean
between the fins. Never use screwdrivers or
other metal probes to clean between the fins.
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. Using a screwdriver and cloth towel, keep the
female hex drive socket and rear shell bearing
clean and free of lubricant and product deposits.
j 6. 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 7. Clean and sanitize the product lines regularly to
prevent syrup residue build-up that would
restrict the proper flow of syrup.
j 8. On a regular basis, take a brix reading to assure
a consistent, quality product (post mix valve
systems only).
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.
Your local T aylor 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
canbeprotectedbywrappingthemwith
moisture-proof paper. All parts should be thoroughly
cleaned of dried mix or lubrication which attract mice
and other vermin.
