Installations& Adjusting

unpack & inspect

  1. Cut off the wrapping tape.
  2. Open the wooden case by screwdriver.
  3. Remove the foam.
  4. Inspect carefully whether there is defective appearance or not.
  5. Check the accessories with packing list.
  6. Remove the fixing bolt and fixing feet that are at the bottom of the machine, push the machine, let the front front-wheel drive fall to the ground, and then take out the wooden base, let the four wheels grounded. (Directly lift the machine to the ground or on the table if the machine is table type)
    TIPS:When first time using the machine, if there remains liquid residue in the cylinder.It’normal liquid residue caused by ex-factory cleaning and won’t affect machine performance and its service time.If this causes any inconvenience, we feel sorry for that and thank you for your understanding.

Installation

  1. SELECTING LOCATION
    • Place the machine on a level counter that is stable and strong enough to safely support its weight.
    • Place the machine in a location that allows adequate space at the back and each side for proper ventilation. Keep 50cm space from all sides of ventilation. The machine should shade from the sun and should not be located too close to the units that radiate excessive heat.
  2. POWER SUPPLY
    • Select the proper power supply according to the voltage and power on the nameplate.
    • Connect the power wire and the power supply, ensuring the yellow and green wire was connected with the ground wire firmly.
      Caution:
      For safety, ensure the ground connection is in good condition.
      All the exterior wires and other appliances must confirm with national standard.

Testing Running

  1. Switch “ON”the power switch and you will hear “Beep”,all the graphic patterns on the screen will be lighted up and then the graphic patterns will extinguish,machine enters “Standby” mode.
  2. Press “Wash”, the corresponding indicator will be lighted up and at the same time you will hear the sound of beater system working.Press the “Wash” button again,beater system will stop.
  3. Press “Auto”,the corresponding indicator will be lighted up and the beater system will start working. After 3 seconds,the cooling system will also start working, air pumps in both hoppers enter normal working state.

Clearing & Sterilizing

  • Step 1: Prepare 5-6 liters of warm water, mix with food detergent according to manufacture’s specifications. And this is the sterilizing solution.
  • Step 2: Pour the solution into the hopper While the solution is flowing into the freezing cylinder, brush and clean the mix hop hopper .
  • Step 3: Press the key of “ clean ”, and let the machine running for about 5
  • Step 4: Place an empty pail beneath the draw spout and push down the draw handle. Draw off all solution.
  • Step 5: Repeat this operation for 2-3 times with water only.

Notice:

  • The temperature of the sterilizing solution can not overpass 60℃, or else it will damage the spare parts.
  • Draw off all the water in the hopper after clearing, or else it will damage the beater while the compressor is running.
  • While press the key of “clean”, pay attention to the indicator light in order to avoid pressing the wrong key.

Notice:
Before installing the piston, O O-ring for piston, beater and gasket for beater, you should lubricate vaseline (lubricating vaseline onto the groove of the gasket, do not onto the beater’s end ), using the vaseline frequently can extend the service life of components.

Cleaning Machine Cabinet
Keep the machine cabinet clean, use wet towel to clean the cabinet, and do not flush the machine with water directly.

Cleaning Condenser
After be used over a period of time, the condenser maybe thick with dust, and this will effect radiate heat and cause refrigeration difference, so it needs periodic cleaning (every half year)

Cleaning methods:

  • Step 1: Disconnected the main power switch.
  • Step 2: Remove the back panel and side panels.
  • Step 3: Clean dust with tools such as vacuum cleaner, highhigh-pressure air and hairbrush, be careful while cleaning to avoid damaging the fins of the condenser.

Belt Adjustment
After be used over a period of time, the belt of the machine maybe elongated, so it needs to be adjusted. Disconnected the main power of the machine, remove the back panel and side panels, adjust the tension bolt and make sure the belt is in appropriate tension.
