Section 1 To the Installer
This machine is designed for indoor use only.
DO NOT install the machine in an area where
a water jet could be used to clean or rinse the machine.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious
electrical shock.
Water Connections
(Water Cooled Units Only)
An adequate cold water supply with a hand shut-off
valve must be provided. On the underside of the base
pan, two 3/8” I.P.S. (for single-head units) or two 1/2”
I.P.S. (for double-head units) water connections for
inlet and outlet have been provided for easy hook-up.
1/2” inside diameter water lines should be connected
to the machine. (Flexible lines are recommended, if
local codes permit.) Depending on local water
conditions, it may be advisable to install a water
strainer to prevent foreign substances from clogging
the automatic water valve. There will be only one water
“in” and one water “out” connection for both
double-head and single-head units. DO NOT install a
hand shut-off valve on the water “out” line! Water
should always flow in this order: first, through the
automatic water valve; second, through the
condenser; and third, through the outlet fitting to an
open trap drain.
Electrical Connections
Each freezer requires one power supply for each data
label. Check the data label(s) on the freezer for fuse,
circuit ampacity and electrical specifications. For
proper power connections, refer to the wiring diagram
provided inside of the electrical box.
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. Compliance therewith and
proper maintenance will result in an installation
essentially free from hazard!
In all other areas of the world, equipment should be
installed in accordance with the existing local codes.
Please contact your local authorities.
Stationary appliances which are not equipped with a
power cord and a plug or other device to disconnect
the appliance from the power source must have an
all−pole disconnecting device with a contact gap of at
least 3 mm installed in the external installation.
Air Cooled Units
This equipment is provided with a grounding lug
The model 340 air cooled unit requires a minimum of
6” (152 mm) of clearance around both sides of the
freezer. It is recommended to install a skirt to one side
of the unit, and to place the back of the unit against a
wall. The models 341 and 342 air cooled units require
a minimum of 3” (76 mm) of air clearance around all
sides.
Failure to allow adequate clearance can reduce the
refrigeration capacity of the freezer and possibly
cause permanent damage to the compressor.
Models 340, 341, 342 To the Installer
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 the removable panel and the frame.
CAUTION: THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED! FAILURE TO DO SO
CAN RESULT IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY
FROM ELECTRICAL SHOCK!

Models 340, 341, 342To the Installer
Section 2 To the Operator
The freezer you have purchased has been carefully
engineered and manufactured to provide dependable
operation. The Taylor Slush Models 340, 341, and 342,
when properly operated and cared for, will produce a
consistent quality product. Like all mechanical
products, these machines 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 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.
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 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.

Section 5 Important: To the Operator
Control Switch
The center position is “OFF”. The left position is
“WASH”, which activates only the beater motor. The
right position is “AUTO”, which activates the beater
motor and the refrigeration system.
Consistency Control
The viscosity (thickness) of the slush is controlled by
a sensing device called the consistency control. The
consistency control knob is located under the control
channel. To achieve a thicker slush, turn the knob
clockwise and counterclockwise to achieve a
thinner slush consistency.
Allow the refrigeration system to cycle on and cycle off
two or three times before an accurate consistency can
Figure 2
be evaluated.
Item Description

2 Consistency Control
3 Indicator Light − “Add Mix”
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
Indicator Light - “Add Mix”
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 and should be refilled
as soon as possible. If mix is not added, a freeze-up
may occur, causing eventual damage to the beater,
blades, drive shaft, and freezer door.
For Your Information
The Models 340 and 341 come equipped with an
optional rack assembly and four syrup jars. Each syrup
jar holds 16 ounces (453.6 grams) of syrup. One pump
stroke will dispense 1/4 ounce (7 grams) of syrup.
Because of the many different types of syrups on the
market today, the syrup to slush ratio will vary. Consult
the label or manufacturer for the proper amount of
syrup for the desired drink size.
To serve slush product, simply add the flavor and open
the draw valve. The slush product should blend with
the syrup with no stirring necessary. If it does not, the
product is too thick and the consistency control should
be adjusted to a thinner consistency.

Models 340, 341, 342Important: To the Operator
Section 6 Operating Procedures
The Model 341 has been selected to illustrate the
pictured step-by-step operating procedures for the
models contained in this manual. Each unit has a 20
quart (18.9 liter) mix hopper and the freezing cylinder
holds 7 quarts (6.6 liters) of slush product. The Model
342 has two mix hoppers and two freezing cylinders;
therefore, duplicate (where it applies) the following
steps for the second side of the Model 342.
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 brush cleaning.
These opening procedures will illustrate how to
assemble these parts into the freezer, sanitize them,
and prime the freezer with slush base in preparation to
serve the first portion.
If you are disassembling the machine for the first time,
or need information to get to this starting point in our
instructions, turn to page 20, “Disassembly” and start
there.
Insert the drive shaft into the freezing cylinder, (square
end first) and into the rear shell bearing, until the seal
fits securely over the rear shell bearing. Be certain the
drive shaft fits into the drive coupling without binding.
Figure 3
Assembly
MAKE SURE CONTROL SWITCH IS IN THE
“OFF” POSITION. Failure to do so may cause injury
from electrocution or hazardous moving parts .
Note: When lubricating parts, use an approved food
grade lubricant (example: Taylor Lube).
Step 1
Install the beater drive shaft. Slide the o-ring into the
first groove on the drive shaft. Lubricate the groove,
o-ring, and shaft portion that comes in contact with the
bearing on the beater drive shaft. DO NOT lubricate
the square end of the drive shaft. Slide the seal over
the shaft and groove until it snaps into place. Fill the
inside portion of the seal with 1/4” more lubricant and
evenly lubricate the flat side of the seal that fits onto the
rear shell bearing.
Figure 4
Step 2
Before installing the beater assembly, check the
scraper blades for any nicks or signs of wear. If any
nicks are present or if the blade is worn, replace both
blades.
