20 Model 161 Important: Operator Checklist
j 6. If your machine is equipped with an auxiliary
refrigeration system, check the auxiliary
condenser for accumulation of dirt and lint. A
dirty condenser will reduce the refrigeration
capacity of the mix hopper. Condensers must
be cleaned monthly with a soft brush. Never
use screwdrivers or other metal probes to clean
between the fins. Failure to comply may result
in electrocution.

7. If your machine is water cooled, check the wa-
ter lines for kinks or leaks. Kinks can occur when
the machine is moved back and forth for clean-
ing or maintenance purposes. Deteriorated or
cracked water lines should be replaced only by
an authorized Taylor mechanic.
Winter Storage
If the place of business is to be closed during the winter
months, it is important to protect the freezer by
following certain precautions, particularly if the
building is subject to freezing conditions.
Disconnect the freezer from the main power source to
prevent possible electrical damage.
On water cooled freezers, disconnect the water
supply. Relieve pressure on the spring in the water
valve. Use air pressure on the outlet side to blow out
any water remaining in the condenser, and then add a
liberal amount of permanent type auto anti-freeze.
This is extremely important. Failure to follow this
procedure may cause severe and costly damage to the
refrigeration system.
Your local Taylor distributor can perform this service for
you.
Wrap detachable parts of the freezer such as the
beater assembly and freezer door, and place them in
a protected dry place. Rubber trim parts and gaskets
can be protected by wrapping them with
moisture-proof paper. All parts should be thoroughly
cleaned of dried mix or lubrication accumulations
which attract mice and other vermin.
