3.5 MIX INFORMATION
Mix can vary considerably from one manufacturer to an­other. Differences in the amount of butterfat content and quantity and quality of other ingredients have a direct bearing on the finished frozen product. A change in machine performance that cannot be explained by a technical problem may be related to the mix.
Proper product serving temperature varies from one manufacturer’s mix to another. When checking the tem­perature, stir the thermometer in the frozen product to read the true temperature.
Old mix or mix that has been stored at elevated tempera­tures will produce poor-quality product with a bad taste and unacceptable appearance. To retard bacteria growth in dairy based mixes, the best storage temperature range is between 36° to 40°F (2.2° to 4.4°C).

3.12 PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
It is recommended that a maintenance schedule be fol­lowed to keep the machine clean and operating properly.
A. DAILY
1. The exterior should be kept clean at all times to preserve the luster of the stainless steel. A mild alkaline cleaner is recommended. Use a soft cloth or sponge to apply the cleaner.
CAUTION
Do not use acidic cleansers, strong caustic com­pounds or abrasive materials to clean any part of the machine exterior or plastic parts. Use of these types of cleaners will cause equipment damage.
B. WEEKLY
1. Check o-rings and rear seal for excessive wear and replace if necessary.
2. Remove the drip tray by gently lifting up to disengage from the support and pulling out. Clean behind the drip tray and front of the machine with a soap solution.
Clean Condenser and Filter
The air-cooled condenser is a copper tube and aluminum fin type. Condensing is dependent upon airflow. A plugged condenser filter or restrictions in the louvered panel will restrict airflow. This will lower the capacity of the system and damage the compressor.
The condenser must be kept clean of dirt and grease. The machine must have a minimum of 3” (7.5 cm) of ventilation on the right and left sides of the unit for free flow of air. Make sure the machine is not pulling over 100° F (37° C) air from other equipment in the area.
The condenser and condenser filter require periodic clean­ing. To clean, refer to the following procedures.
WARNING
High voltage will shock, burn or cause death. Turn off and lock out main power disconnect before ser­vicing. Do not operate machine with panels re­moved.
1. Remove the Phillips head screw from the bottom of the right side panel, and then slide the panel down and out.
10
2. To remove the condenser filter, grasp the top and pull off. Visually inspect for dirt. If the filter is dirty, shake or brush excess dirt off the filter and wash in warm, soapy water. Once the filter is clean rinse thoroughly in warm, clear water and shake dry, taking care not to damage the filter in any way.
3. Visually inspect the condenser for dirt by shining a light through the coil from the back (inside) of the condenser.
4. If the condenser is dirty, place a wet towel over the front (outside) of the condenser.
5. Using a vacuum, carefully clean the condenser coil from the inside and outside of the machine. A stiff bristled brush may help in releasing debris from between the condenser coils.
D. SEMI-ANNUALLY
WARNING
High voltage will shock, burn or cause death. T urn off and lock out main power disconnect before ser­vicing. Do not operate machine with panels re­moved.
1. Check drive belt for proper tension. Push belt in with one finger, belt should deflect about 3/8".
2. Lubricate condenser fan motor with S.A.E. 20 weight oil. Three to six drops is required.
Once milkstone has formed, it is very difficult to remove. Without using the correct product and procedure, it is nearly impossible to remove a thick layer of milkstone. (NOTE: general-purpose cleaners DO NOT remove milkstone.) This can lead to high bacteria counts and a food safety dilemma.
IT IS BEST TO CONTROL MILKSTONE ON A DAILY BASIS BEFORE IT CAN BECOME A SIGNIFICANT FOOD SAFETY PROBLEM.
In addition to food safety, milkstone can cause premature wear to machine parts which can add to costs for replace­ment parts or possibly more expensive repairs if worn machine parts are not replaced once they have become excessively worn.
IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CLEANING
AND SANITIZING
CLEANING vs. SANITIZING It is important to distinguish between cleaning and sanitiz-
ing. Although these terms may sound synonymous, they are not. BOTH are required for adequate food safety and proper machine maintenance.
CLEANING
Is the removal of soil materials from a surface.
Is a prerequisite for effective sanitizing.
NOTE
An UNCLEAN surface will harbor bacteria that can defy sanitizing efforts.
CAUTION
Do not over-lubricate; resulting damage could cause motor failure.
E. CLEANING AND SANITIZING INFORMATION
Special consideration is required when it comes to food safety and proper cleaning and sanitizing.
The following information has been compiled by Purdy Products Company, makers of Stera-Sheen Green Label Cleaner/Sanitizer and specifically covers issues for clean­ing and sanitizing frozen dessert machines. This informa­tion is meant to supplement a comprehensive food safety program.
SOIL MATERIALS ASSOCIATED WITH FROZEN
DESSERT MACHINES
MILKFAT/BUTTERFAT – As components of ice-cream/ frozen custard mix, these soils will accumulate on the interior surfaces of the machine and its parts. Fats are difficult to remove and help attribute to milkstone buildup.
MILKSTONE – Is a white/gray film that forms on equip­ment and utensils that come in contact with dairy products. These films will accumulate slowly on surfaces because of ineffective cleaning, use of hard water, or both. Milkstone is usually a porous deposit, which will harbor microbial contaminants and eventually defy sanitizing efforts.
Bacteria can develop and resist sanitizing efforts within a layer of soil material (milkstone). Thorough cleaning pro­cedures that involve milkstone removal are critical for operators of frozen dessert machines.
SANITIZING
Kills bacteria.
Can be effective on clean surfaces only.
NOTE
Using a SANITIZER on an unclean surface will not guarantee a clean and safe frozen dessert machine.
PROPER DAILY MAINTENANCE: THE ONLY WAY TO
ASSURE FOOD SAFETY AND PRODUCT QUALITY
Proper daily maintenance can involve a wide variety of products and procedures. Overall, the products and pro­cedures fall into three separate categories. (Please note that this is a brief overview intended for informational purposes only.)
1. CLEANING – This involves draining mix from the machine barrel and rinsing the machine with water. Next, a cleaner is run through the machine. Then, the machine is disassembled and removable parts are taken to the sink for cleaning.
2. MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Since almost all cleaners do not have the ability to remove milkstone, the use of a delimer becomes
11
necessary. Although this procedure may not be needed on a daily basis, it will usually follow the cleaning procedure. It requires letting a delimer solution soak in the machine for an extended period. Individual parts are also soaked in a deliming solution for an extended period (more about delimers in Additional Information).
3. SANITIZING – After the machine has been cleaned and contains no milkstone, the machine is reassembled. Then a FDA-approved sanitizing solution is run through the machine to kill bacteria. The machine is then ready for food preparation.
As a recommended cleaner and sanitizer for your frozen dessert machine, STERA-SHEEN has proven to be one of the best daily maintenance products for:
CLEANING – Thorough removal of all solids
including butterfat and milk fat.
MILKSTONE REMOVAL – Complete removal of
milkstone.
SANITIZING – FDA-approved no rinse sanitizer
for food contact surfaces.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
THE USE OF DELIMERS A delimer is a strong acid that has the ability to dissolve
milkstone. This type of chemical may become necessary once high levels of milkstone have developed. While these products are very effective for removing HIGH levels of milkstone, they are not ideal for two reasons:
1. PRODUCT SAFETY – Strong acids are dangerous chemicals and handling them requires safety
2. MACHINE DAMAGE – Strong acids will attack metal and rubber causing premature wear of parts. The use of a delimer needs to be closely monitored to avoid damage to machine surfaces and parts.
With proper daily use of STERA-SHEEN or its equivalent, there is no need for the use of a DELIMER.
DO NOT USE BLEACH
BLEACH HAS ABSOLUTELY NO CLEANING
PROPERTIES.
BLEACH IS CORROSIVE. It can and will damage
components of the machine causing premature wear and metal corrosion.
GENERAL PURPOSE CLEANERS General purpose cleaners do not have the ability to re-
move milkstone. Milkstone will become a problem if not remedied with additional products and procedures.
THE USE OF CHLORINE TEST STRIPS “Test strips” are used to determine concentrations of
active chlorine in sanitizing solutions. To use the strips, tear off a small portion and submerge it into the sanitizing solution. Then, compare the color change to the color key on the side of the test strip dispenser to determine the approximate chlorine concentration.
The ideal concentration of chlorine needs to be 100 ppm (as stated by the FDA).
NOTE
Follow the directions on the container for proper con­centration.
There are two main factors that contribute to falling chlo­rine concentrations in a sanitizing solution.
1. PRODUCT USE – As the chlorine in the solution is being used, chlorine concentrations fall.
2. TIME – As time passes, small amounts of chlorine “evaporate” from the solution. (That is why you can smell it.)
Sanitizing solutions should not be allowed to fall below 100 ppm chlorine. New solutions should be mixed once old solutions become ineffective.
3.13 EXTENDED STORAGE
Refer to the following steps for storage of the machine over any long shutdown period:
A. Turn the Main Freezer Power OFF-ON switch to
the OFF position.
B. Disconnect (unplug) from the electrical supply
source.
C. Clean thoroughly with a warm water detergent all
parts that are exposed to the mix. Rinse in clean water and dry parts. Do not sanitize.
NOTE
Do not let the cleaning solution stand in the hopper or in the machine barrel during the shutdown period.
D. Remove, disassemble and clean the faceplate,
flow control assembly and auger parts. Place the auger blades and the front auger wear bushing in a plastic bag with a moist paper towel to prevent them from becoming brittle.

TROUBLESHOOTING
4.1 ERROR CODES
When the machine experiences a problem, one of the following error codes will be displayed on the control panel. Each error code directs you to the system location of the malfunction.
ERROR CODE MALFUNCTION
1 Soft 2 High Torque 3 Extended Run Time 4 Clean 5 Barrel Sensor 6 Hopper Sensor 7 Drive Motor 8 Cab Sensor 9 High Pressure Cutout 10 Auxiliary Sensor
To return the machine to normal operation, any error causing condition must be corrected and the Freezing Cylinder Off/On switch must be placed in the OFF position and back in the ON position before the machine will return to normal operation.
4.2 TROUBLESHOOTING ERROR CODES
Error Code 1 - Soft Error
The Soft Error (E1) is an internal control board error that is logged for future analysis. The refrigeration is never stopped and the machine will continue to operate normally.
Error Code 2 - High Torque
If the control panel displays a High Torque Error (E2), the controller has sensed that the drive motor is running at 125% of the service factor amps (SFA) for 10 or more seconds. Place the Main Power Off/On switch in the OFF position, wait until the product in the barrel thaws to a reasonably soft consistency and return the switch to the ON position. If the error persists, contact your Authorized Stoelting Distributor for further assistance.
Error Code 3 - Run Time
The Run Time Error (E3) occurs when the compressor runs continuously for 20 minutes. This error could happen if the cutout value is not attained during “Standby Mode” or if the “Ready” signal does not come on in “Custard Mode” or “Lemon Ice Mode”.
The Run Time Error may occur if airflow within the machine has reduced or stopped or if there is a
refrigeration issue. Check the sides of the machine for anything that would restrict airflow.
If the error persists after attempting to clear it, contact your Authorized Stoelting Distributor for further assistance.
Error Code 4 - Clean
If the machine is left in the Clean Mode for more than 20 minutes, the control panel will display a Clean Error (Error 04). This condition does not reflect a problem with the machine itself. The Clean Error has been programmed into the controller as a safeguard to protect the machine from potential damage caused by the machine being accidentally left in “Clean Mode”. The control will attempt to restart itself after 5 minutes. The display will then flash and read Restart. To immediately clear the Clean Error, place the Main Power Off/On switch in the OFF position and back in the ON position. After the Clean Error has been cleared, the machine will start a refrigeration cycle to protect the product in case the clean button was pressed by mistake.
Error Code 5 - Freezing Cylinder Sensor
The Freezing Cylinder Sensor Error (E5) indicates a failure of the barrel sensor or an extreme out of range condition (< -34°F or > 99°F). If the control panel displays an E5, place the Freezing Cylinder Off/On switch in the OFF position and back in the ON position. If the error persists, contact your Authorized Stoelting Distributor for further assistance.
NOTE
When the machine encounters a Freezing Cylinder Sensor Error, the machine will continue to run using preset timers. This mode will allow the machine to continue making product until the machine can be serviced.
Error Code 6 - Hopper Sensor
The Hopper Sensor Error (E6) indicates a failure of the hopper sensor or an extreme out of range condition (< -34°F or > 99°F). If the control panel displays an E6, place the Freezing Cylinder Off/ On switch in the OFF position and back in the ON position. If the error persists, contact your Authorized Stoelting Distributor for further assistance.
13
Error Code 7 - Drive Motor
If the control panel displays a Drive Motor Error (E7), the control does not sense current coming from the drive motor. Place the Freezing Cylinder Off/On switch in the OFF position and back in the ON position. If the error persists, contact your Authorized Stoelting Distributor for further assistance.
Error Code 8 - Cab Sensor
A Cab Sensor Error (E8) will not occur on the CF101 machine.
Error Code 9 - High Pressure Cutout
High Pressure Cutout Errors (E9) are usually caused by a dirty or inefficient condenser. If the control panel displays an E9 on an air cooled machine, check for proper air clearance around the machine. In a water cooled machine, check that the water is not shut off. If the error persists, contact your Authorized Stoelting Distributor for further assistance.
Error Code 10 - Auxiliary Sensor
An Auxiliary Temperature Sensor Error (E10) occurs if the temperature sensor on the control board fails. Place the Freezing Cylinder Off/On switch in the OFF position and back in the ON position. If the error persists, contact your Authorized Stoelting Distributor for further assistance.
ALTERNATING FLASHING CONTROL PANEL LIGHTS
The display panel lights will flash in an alternating sequence under any error codes. Clear the error and place the Freezing Cylinder Off/On switch in the OFF position and back in the ON position.
