Cleaning of the refrigeration cylinder

To ensure the health of ice cream consumers and increase the service life of machine parts, you must clean the refrigeration cylinder once a day.

(1) Press the cleaning button to discharge all the slurry in the material tank, and press the stop button.

(2) Add an appropriate amount of disinfectant with warm water, pour it into the bucket, and the amount of water in the two buckets is the same.

(3) Press the cleaning button and stir for about 1-2 minutes to discharge the cleaning solution.

(4) Wash 2-3 times with clean water and stop.

(5) Turn off the power and disassemble and wash the parts.

a. Unscrew the four screws on the side of the liquid outlet valve and remove the liquid outlet valve assembly.

b. Pull out the handle fixing pin, handle, valve stem and sealing ring from the liquid outlet valve in turn.

c. Pull out the agitator from the refrigeration cylinder and remove the sealing ring.

d. Clean all the dismantled parts and replace them in time if they are damaged.

e. Assemble the parts according to the opposite steps of disassembly.

Body cleaning

Consumers need beautiful, clean and hygienic machines. Please keep the exterior of the machine clean at all times. You can wipe the machine with a warm towel to remove stains. Do not rinse with water to avoid electrical failures.

Clean the condenser

After working for a period of time, the condenser will be covered with dust, which will affect heat dissipation, and the cooling effect will be poor. The specific cleaning time can vary from three months to half a year depending on the operating environment. Before cleaning, turn off the power supply, be sure not to damage the condenser fins, and use a soft brush and a hairdryer to clean up.

Transmission adjustment

After the machine has been used for a long time, the transmission belt of the mixing system may be stretched and needs to be adjusted. The phenomenon that occurs is that the belt slips, and the machine suddenly stops after running for a while. The digital tube of the series of soft ice cream machines will display the word "NL" and beep at the same time. The motor makes regular intermittent noises for a long time. At this time, disconnect the power supply, remove the left panel of the machine, and use a wrench to adjust the screws fixed under the motor (the specific situation may vary slightly depending on the model of the machine, please call the after-sales telephone for consultation). In this case, it is not a malfunction of the machine. Before adjusting the belt, the power must be stopped and the machine will return to normal after the belt is adjusted properly.

Precautions

Some ice cream machines have a pre-cooling function. The function of this function is to keep the temperature in the storage tank at about 5-10 degrees, which plays a role in preservation. In actual use, some businesses will claim that their ice cream machines do not need to be cleaned, which is actually misleading. We know that the ingredients of ice cream are mainly dairy products, and dairy products are very easy to be destroyed by bacteria and quickly spoiled, especially in hot summer, if the machine is not cleaned at night, the bacteria in the ice cream the next day will definitely exceed the standard. Once there is a problem with consumers, it will not be worth the loss. I would like to remind the majority of businesses to pay attention to the hygiene issues in the daily operation process, and they must ensure hygiene and safety. Another problem of not cleaning the ice cream machine at night is to return to the stratification of the liquid slurry, and the ice cream produced during production the next day. The taste is extremely poor. Due to the natural precipitation of water in the ice cream, some ingredients in some raw materials will react with metal ions, causing the liquid to turn black.
