mortar) nor silver cleaning special products.
Avoid using any metal tool or abrasive pad.
•Clean the ventilation grids (6) on the rear part
and the bottom of the machine at least once a
year.
•Regularly (at least once every 3 months) check
the oil seal (13) on top of the transmission
shaft: if necessary replace or lubricate with H1
category grease or higher. Specially designed
grease can be purchased at any Authorized
Service Centre. An oil seal replacement (13) is
supplied with the machine.
•Regulary lubricate the gaskets of the plug (9).
•Proceed with the sanitization (see the
SANITIZATION chapter) in order to avoid any
bacteria growth at least one time in a week.
SANITIZATION
Sanitizing operations, if properly carried out,
allow for the removal of a significant proportion
of micro-organisms whose cells and spores
find, thanks to processing residues, favourable
conditions for survival and proliferation. Must be
carried out at the end of daily production cycle
or more often, if necessary.
WARNING: standby mode should not be used
in lieu of proper cleaning and sanitization
procedures at the frequencies required by the
federal, state, or local regulatory agency.
Sanitizing involves two phases:
•
CLEANSING
Remove dirt (coarse residues)
and rinse with lukewarm water immediately
after work; cleaning action is provided by
manual friction and water pressure. The use of
a chemical detergent reduces, but does not
cancel, the manual cleaning requested above.
CAUTION: cleansing only, even if accurate,
does not ensure complete removal of micro-
biotic contaminants. Proceed as follows:
•Leave out the paddle (5) and the nut (4) from
the pot, remove the lid (3) from the machine.
•Rinse the pot with water hotter than 45°C first,
to dissolve grease and facilitate its removal,
but below 60°C to avoid "cooking" proteins,
sugar or fat and make them stick even firmly
to the surfaces subjected to cleaning.
•Remove the coarse dirt mechanically from
the pot. Use an appropriate tool or the hard
bristle pipe cleaner (21) previously cleaned.
Avoid use any metal tool. Rinse the cleaning
tool with the hot water (between 45°c and
60°C) every time you complete a single
cleansing operation.
English
•Apply detergent: due to the fact that most of
food residues (proteins and fat) cannot be
dissolved in water, their complete removal
requires the use of a detergent that detaches
dirt form the surface and enables its further
removal by rinsing.
•Carefully clean the recessed and hidden
zones like the central sleeve, the thread
where the ring (4) is screwed and the bottom
of the bowl. Use a cleaner or any appropriate
cleaning tool. The hard bristle pipe cleaner
(21) can be used. After any operation, the
cleaning tool must be carefully rinsed with
warm water.
• P u l l o u t t h e t a p ( 9 ) a n d l e t t h e
water+detergent flows out.
•By flowing out the hot water, carefully clean
the discharge tube (7) by introducing an
appropriate cleaning tool. The hard bristle
pipe cleaner (21) can be used. After any
operation, the used tool must be carefully
rinsed with warm water. Repeat the operation
with a new hot water + detergent solution.
•Finally rinse the pot and the discharge tube
(7) with a hot water.
•All the tools and removable parts of the
equipment must be cleaned in a separate
basket filled with hot water (between 45°C
and 60°C) and detergent and must rest fully
immersed for at least 15 minutes.
•Pull out the scrapers (18) and (19) (simply by
pulling them), the interlocking buffers (20)
(by pushing them out from the blade) and the
bush (17) from the paddle. Leave them all
fully immersed in the basket with the solution
prepared above for the time required.
•Leave the paddle immersed in the basket
with the solution prepared above for the time
required, then use an hard bristle tool to
carefully clean the paddle (5). The hard
bristle pipe cleaner (21) can be used. Pay
attention to the internal side of the paddle
sleeve and to the areas near the interlocking
buffers (20) hole.
•By using the hard bristle pipe cleaner (21) or
any other appropriate tool, carefully clean the
body and the recessed and/or hidden areas
of the inserts (18) and (19), especially the
zones where the metal blade of the paddle
gets stuck. Leave them all immersed in the
basket with the solution prepared above for
the time required.
•Separate the ORs gaskets from the bush
