START-UP AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

ICE DRINK DISPENSER
The ice drink dispenser shall be installed by qualified personnel following instruction given in the Installation manual part number 621057403INS. Fill the hopper with ice. Dispense several large cups of ice (approximately 20 to 30 seconds total dispensing time) to allow ice to fill the cold plate cabinet. Add ice to the hopper as necessary to refill, then replace the lid. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the cold plate to cool down. Repeat this procedure whenever thedispenser has run out of ice. Start up the beverage system and adjust faucets to the proper brix. Contact your local syrup distributor for complete information on the beverage system.

The ice drink dispenser is designed to operate in ambient temperatures ranging from 65 to 95o F. Do not allow the unit to be stored or operated in conditions below 32o F. This could cause damage to the unit.

CAUTION:
Dispenser cannot be used with crushed or flaked ice. Use of bagged ice which has frozen into large chunks can void warranty. The dispenser agitator is not designed to be an ice crusher. Use of large chunks of ice which “jam up” inside the hopper will cause failure if the agitator motor and damage to the hopper. If bagged ice is used, it must be carefully and completely broken into small, cube-sized pieces and left to “temper” or warm up for a minimum of 20 minutes in room temperature before loading into the dispenser hopper

In normal operation, pushing the ice dispenser mechanism will cause ice to flow from the ice chute. Ice flow will continue until the dispenser mechanism is WARNING:
Use caution to avoid spilling ice when filling dispenser. Clean up immediately any spilled ice from filling or operating the unit. To prevent contamination of ice, the lid must be installed on the unit at all times. Failure to clean up spills could result in serious injury or death

If the dispenser fails to dispense ice or beverage, refer to the troubleshooting section in the Installation Manual part number 621057403INS.

NOTE: The dispenser is not designed for a wash-down environment and MUST NOT be placed in an area where a water jet could be used.

Product Tubing (Monthly Cleaning)
IMPORTANT: Only trained and qualified persons should perform these cleaning and sanitizing procedures.

Sanitize Pre-Mix And Post–Mix Tank System

1. Remove all the quick disconnects from all the tanks. Fill a suitable pail or bucket with soap solution.

2. Submerge all disconnects (gas and liquid) in the soap solution and then clean them using a nylon bristle brush. (Do not use a wire brush). Rinse with clean water.
   Prepare sanitizing solution and using a mechanical spray bottle, spray the disconnects. Allow to air dry.

3. Using a clean, empty tank, prepare five (5) gallons of the sanitizing solution. Rinse the tank disconnects with approximately 9 oz. of the sanitizing solution. Close the tank.

4. Prepare cleaning tank by filling clean five (5) gallon tank with a mixture of mild detergent and potable water (120oF).

5. Connect a gas disconnect to the tank and then apply one of the product tubes to the cleaning tank. Operate the appropriate valve until liquid dispensed is free of any syrup.

6. Disconnect cleaning tank and hook up sanitizing tank to syrup line and CO2 system.

7. Energize beverage faucet until chlorine sanitizing solution is dispensed through the faucet. Flush at least two (2) cups of liquid to ensure that the sanitizing solution has filled the entire length of the syrup tubing.

8. Allow sanitizer to remain in lines for fifteen (15) minutes.

9. Repeat the step above, applying a different product tube each time until all tubes are filled with the sanitizing solution.

10. Remove the nozzle and syrup diffuser and clean them in a mild soap solution. Rinse with clean water and reassemble the nozzle and syrup diffuser on the valve.

11. Rinse the parts in clean water, reassemble the valve and reconnect it to the dispenser.

12. Discard the tank of sanitizing solution and reconnect the product syrup tanks. Operate the valves until all sanitizer has been flushed from the system and only product syrup is flowing.

Sanitize syrup lines, B-I-B Systems

1. Remove all the quick disconnects from all the B-I-B containers.
2. Fill a suitable pail or bucket with soap solution.
3. Submerge all disconnects (gas and liquid) in the soap solution and then clean them using a nylon bristle brush. (Do not use a wire brush). Rinse with clean water.
4. Using a plastic pail, prepare approximately five (5) gallons of sanitizing solution.
5. Rinse the B-I-B disconnects in the sanitizing solution.
6. Sanitizing fittings must be attached to each B-I-B disconnect. If these fittings are not available, the fittings from empty B-I-B bags can be cut from the bags and used. These fittings open the disconnect so the sanitizing solution can be drawn through the disconnect.
7. Place all the B-I-B disconnects into the pail of sanitizing solution. Operate all the valves until the sanitizing solution is flowing from the valve. Allow sanitizer to remain in lines for fifteen (15) minutes.
8. Remove the nozzle and syrup diffuser from each valve and clean them in a soap solution. Rinse with clean water and reassemble the nozzle and syrup diffuser to the valve.
9. Remove the sanitizing fittings from the B-I-B disconnects and connect the disconnects to the appropriate
   B-I-B container. Operate the valves until all sanitizer has been flushed from the system and syrup is flowing freely.
   Replenishing CO2 Supply (As Required)

NOTE: When indicator on the 1800-psi gage is in the shaded (“change CO2 cylinder”) portion of the dial, CO2 cylinder is almost empty and should be changed.

1. Fully close (clockwise) the CO2 cylinder valve.
2. Slowly loosen the CO2 regulator assembly coupling nut allowing CO2 pressure to escape, then remove the regulator assembly from the empty CO2 cylinder
3. Unfasten safety chain and remove the empty CO2 cylinder.

WARNING:
To avoid personnel injury and/or property damage, always secure the CO2 cylinder with a safety chain to prevent it from falling over. Should the valve become accidentally damaged or broken off, a CO2 regulator can cause serious personnel injury or death could occur.

1. Position the full CO2 cylinder and secure with a safety chain.
2. Make sure gasket is in place inside the CO2 regulator assembly coupling nut, then install the regulator assembly on the CO2 cylinder.
3. Open (counterclockwise) the CO2 cylinder valve slightly to allow the lines to slowly fill with gas, then open the valve fully to back-seat the valve (back-seating the valve prevents gas leakage around the valve shaft).
4. Check CO2 connections for leaks. Tighten any loose connection.
