Section 1 To the Installer

This machine is designed for indoor use only.

CAUTION: THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE

DO NOT installthemachineinanarea

where a water jet could be used to clean or rinse the
machine. Failure to follow this instruction may result
in serious electrical shock.

PROPERLY GROUNDED! FAILURE TO DO SO
CAN RESULT IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY
FROM ELECTRICAL SHOCK!

Electrical Connections

Each freezer requires one power supply for each
data label. Check the data label on the freezer for
fuse, circuit ampacity and electrical specifications.
Refer to the wiring diagram provided inside of the
electrical box, for proper power connections.

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.

Beater rotation must be counterclockwise as
viewed looking into the freezing cylinder of the
Model 383/384 dispenser.

To correct rotation on a three-phase unit, exchange
any two incoming power supply lines at the freezer
main terminal block only.

To correct rotation on a single-phase unit, exchange
the leads inside the beater motor. (Follow the
diagram printed on the motor.)

Electrical connections are made directly to the splice
box. The splice box is located behind the back
panel.

IMPORTANT!

Beater rotation on the 380 Series

differs from other Taylor equipment.

Section 2 To the Operator

The slush freezer you have purchased has been
carefully engineered and manufactured to give you
dependable operation. The Taylor equipment, when
properly operated and cared for, will produce a
consistent quality product. Like all mechanical
products, this machine 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 380 Series model 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 thoroughly
read this manual.

If you 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 3 Safety

We at Taylor are concerned about the safety of the
operator when he or she comes in contact with the
freezer and its parts. Taylor has gone to extreme
efforts to design and manufacture built-in safety
features to protect both you and the service
technician. As an example, warning labels have
been attached to the freezer to further point out
safety precautions to the operator.

IMPORTANT - Failure to adhere to the
following safety precautions may result in
severe personal injury. Failure to comply with
these warnings may damage the machine and
its components. Component damage will result
in part replacement expense and service repair
expense.

To Operate Safely:

S DO NOT allow untrained personnel to

operate this machine.

S DO NOT operate the freezer unless all

service panels and access doors are
restrained with screws.

S DO NOT put objects or fingers in door

spout.

S DO NOT remove the door, beater, scraper

blades, drive shaft or torque rotor shaft
unless the power switch is in the “OFF”
position.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in
contaminated product or personal injury from
hazardous moving parts.

DO NOT operate the freezer without
reading this operator’s manual. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in equipment damage, poor
freezer performance, health hazards, or personal
injury.

S DO NOT operate the freezer unless it is

properly grounded.

S DO NOT attempt any repairs unless the

main power supply to the freezer has been
disconnected.

S DO NOT operate the freezer with larger

fuses than specified on the freezer data

label.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in
electrocution. Contact your local authorized Taylor
Distributor for service.

DO NOT use a water jet to clean or rinse
the freezer. Failure to follow this instruction may
result in serious electrical shock.

USE EXTREME CAUTION when removing
the beater assembly. The scraper blades are very
sharp and may cause injury.

This freezer must be placed on a level
surface. Failure to comply may result in personal
injury or equipment damage.

DO NOT obstruct air intake and discharge openings:
6” (152 mm) minimum air space on all sides. Failure
to follow this instruction may cause poor freezer
performance and damage to the machine.

This freezer is designed to operate indoors, under
normal ambient temperatures of 70°- 75°F
(21°- 24°C). The freezer has successfully performed
in high ambient temperatures of 104°F (40°C) at
reduced capacities.

NOISE LEVEL: Airborne noise emission does not
exceed 78 dB(A) when measured at a distance of

1.0 meter from the surface of the machine and at a
height of 1.6 meters from the floor.
