2. Reduce amounts of material processed to less than the full 4-liter capacity when working with viscous or fibrous materials.
3. When cleaning exterior of container, keep it in normal, upright operating position to prevent liquids from running into the bearing through the bottom end.

HOT BLENDING INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT:

To minimize the possibility of scalding when blending hot materials, the following precautions and procedures must be observed:

• Hot materials are those that are 100˚F (38˚C) or hotter.
• Always start blending on lowest speed setting, then progress to desired speed.
• Never stand directly over blender when it is being started or while it is running.
• Constant monitoring of the condition of the container lid gasket and the container lid clamps is mandatory. Replace these parts if they become worn or loose, or are damaged in any way.

FOR CB15S AND CB15TS MODELS ONLY:

Hot Blending Lid Instructions

Model number: CBL10

CAUTION
DO NOT BLEND HOT MATERIALS UNTIL BLENDER AND HOT BLENDING LID ARE CORRECTLY ASSEMBLED. WHEN BLENDING HOT MATERIALS ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE 4 LITER BLENDER OPERATING MANUAL.

TO ASSEMBLE:

1. Place lid with gasket over baffle cup and rotate lid counterclockwise until locking tabs snap into place with locking tab locks.
2. Place lid, with baffle cup attached, on top of container and lock with locking clips on container.

Caution – DO NOT COVER ANY HOLES OR OPENINGS IN THIS LID WHEN HOT BLENDING.

Important – The gasket mounted on the underside of the hot blending lid is a critical component. If it shows signs of cuts, tears, cracking, drying out, wear or other deterioration, it must be immediately replaced before further use. Do not overfill container; maximum capacity is 4 liters.

TO DISASSEMBLE:

1. Be sure blender is turned off and lid has cooled.
2. Remove container from base.
3. Release locking clips on container and lift lid off.
4. Holding baffle cup, rotate lid clockwise until locking tabs snap open and lift lid off baffle cup.

Caution
This hot blending lid retains hot liquids after use. Let cool and handle carefully when disassembling.

MAINTENANCE

Motor – Not for water-jet cleaning.
The Waring Commercial Blender ball-bearing motor requires no greasing or oiling. Sealed-in lubrication provides smooth unit operation.

Container – The stainless steel or co polyester container can be sterilized without injury to the bearing.
Container pad is to be washed and rinsed in solutions as noted in the Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions.

Depending on the operating conditions, service life of the main components of the container blade assembly, socket head shaft and shaft seals is 500 hours of actual running time.

When any one of these main components has worn to the extent that replacement is required, it is likely that the other components will need to be replaced also. It is therefore recommended that container blade assemblies be replaced as a unit.

Die-cast lock nut must be tightened securely (65 to 70 footpounds torque) when reassembling container.

Power Supply Cord – The power supply cord should not be replaced by the end user. The power supply cord should be replaced only by the manufacturer’s authorized importer (or, in the United States and Canada, by an authorized service center).

NOTE: All parts require constant monitoring for conditions requiring replacement. For assistance, contact your nearest service center.

CLEANING AND SANITIZING INSTRUCTIONS

THE CONTAINER MUST BE CLEANED AND DRIED AFTER EACH USE OF THE BLENDER ACCORDING TO THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS.

FAILURE TO DO SO MAY ALLOW RESIDUE OF PROCESSED MATERIAL TO COLLECT ON THE INTERNAL SEALS OF THE BLADE ASSEMBLY, RENDERING THEM INEFFECTIVE.

• Wash, rinse, sanitize and dry container prior to initial use and whenever it will not be used again within a period of 1 hour.
• Wash and rinse container after each use.
• Clean and sanitize motor base prior to initial use and after each use.
• Washing solutions based on non-sudsing detergents and chlorine-based sanitizing solutions having a minimum chlorine concentration of 100 PPM are recommended.

The following washing, rinsing, and sanitizing solutions, or their equivalents, may be used.

1%–2%: 1¼ – 2¾

ounce/gallon (lower dilution of 1% for normal cleaning and up to 2% for more stubborn soils)

| Room Temperature
Rinsing| Plain Water|  | Warm – 95˚F (35˚C)
Sanitizing| Clorox® Regular Bleach (8.25% Hypochlorite Concentration)| 2 teaspoons/gallon (Alternately, a bleach with 5.25% Hypocrite Concentration can be used at dilution of teaspoons/gallon)|

• In repetitive batch-processing applications, frequent cleaning of the container will prolong the life of the blade assembly. In no case should actual running time between cleanings exceed one-half hour.
• Do not use container to store processed foods or beverages.

TO WASH AND RINSE CONTAINER

1. REMOVE CONTAINER FROM MOTOR BASE.
   Remove lid. Rinse container interior and lid under running water. Add washing solution to container. Scrub and flush out the container interior and lid to dislodge and remove as much food residue as possible. Empty container.

2. Wipe down exterior of container with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with washing solution. Wash lid and lid insert in fresh washing solution. Fill container one-quarter full with fresh washing solution, cover (with lid only), place on motor base and run on HI speed for two (2) minutes. Empty container.

3. Repeat step 2 using clean rinse water in place of washing solution.

IMPORTANT

NOTE: IN ORDER TO MINIMIZE POSSIBILITY OF SCALDING, TEMPERATURE OF WASHING SOLUTION AND RINSE WATER MUST NOT EXCEED 115˚F (46˚C), AND QUANTITY USED MUST NOT EXCEED ONE-QUARTER CONTAINER FULL.

TO SANITIZE AND DRY CONTAINER

1. Wipe down exterior of container with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with sanitizing solution.
2. Fill container with sanitizing solution, cover, place on motor base, and run on HI speed for one (1) minute. Empty container. Dislodge any residual moisture from blade assembly by placing empty container on motor base and running on HI speed for two (2) seconds.
3. Sanitize lid and lid insert by immersing in sanitizing solution for two (2) minutes.
4. Do not rinse container, lid, or lid insert after sanitizing is completed. Allow parts to air-dry.

TO CLEAN AND SANITIZE MOTOR BASE

1. UNPLUG POWER CORD. Wipe down exterior surfaces of motor base with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with washing solution, rinse water, and sanitizing solution. Prevent liquid from running into motor base by wringing all excess moisture from the cloth or sponge before using it.
   DO NOT IMMERSE MOTOR BASE IN WASHING SOLUTION, RINSE WATER OR SANITIZING SOLUTION.

2. Allow motor base to air-dry before using

FOR LABORATORY AND INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS

For laboratory and industrial applications, a cleaning/rinsing/ sanitizing/drying schedule similar to that given above for food service applications should be followed, except that the cleaning, rinsing and sanitizing media used must be modified as required to be consistent with the materials being processed.

For some applications involving the processing of aqueous mixtures, a water- soluble cleaner, a water rinse, and a water-soluble sanitizer may be adequate. In general, however, suitable cleaning, rinsing, and sanitizing media will have to be determined empirically, particularly for those applications involving non-aqueous systems materials not readily soluble in water.

In order to be effective, the cleaning solution used must be capable of breaking up any residues left in the container after use, either by dissolving them, emulsifying them, reacting chemically with them, or by some other mechanism.

In order to allow complete removal of the mixture of broken-up residue and cleaning solution, this mixture must, in turn, be either soluble in the rinse medium, or easily suspended by it.

In applications where sanitization of the container is required after cleaning, the sanitizing solution must mix compatibly with any trace liquid that remains after rinsing.

IF YOUR APPLICATION INVOLVES THE PROCESSING OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE MATERIALS, AND SHOULD SERVICE ON YOUR UNIT EVER BE NEEDED, WE REQUEST THAT ANY PARTS OR ASSEMBLIES BEING RETURNED BE STERILIZED BY AUTOCLAVING BEFORE BEING SHIPPED. IN ADDITION, ALL SUCH PARTS MUST BE CLEARLY IDENTIFIED AS HAVING BEEN AUTOCLAVED BOTH BY A TAG OR LABEL ON THE PART ITSELF, AND BY A STATEMENT IN THE ACCOMPANYING CORRESPONDENCE.

THE DISTRIBUTOR WILL NOT ACCEPT DELIVERY OF SUCH PARTS UNLESS THEY ARE SO IDENTIFIED.
