FOR THE OPERATOR
This section covers operating controls, daily
pre-operation check, unit operation, adjustments,
replenishing CO
2
and syrup supplies, and daily
cleaning.
OPERATING CONTROLS - Units have either
levers or push buttons
Levers: Dispensing valve levers, located below
the dispensing valves, need only to be pressed
with a cup or glass to dispense product.
Ice: Ice will continue to be dispensed for as long as
the lever is held in, or until the hopper is empty.
Push Buttons: On the front of each valve will be a
button, that when pushed, will activate the valve.
Ice: When the ice dispense button is pushed, ice
will be dispensed for as long as the button is held
in or until the hopper is empty.
General Information
Dispensing Soda: To minimize foaming, a cup, 1/3
full of ice, should be filled at an angle so that the
product runs down the inside wall of the cup, until
the cup is nearly full.
When the ice dispense lever or button is pushed, a
motor begins to turn the rotor in the hopper, and a
solenoid opens the ice chute door. Ice is then
dropped down through the ice chute.
NOTE: Periodically during the day, clean up the ice
spilled in the drip tray.
There is a timer in the control box that will activate
the rotor in the ice bin every two hours.
No ice will fall out because the ice chute door will
remain closed. The amount of time that the rotor
turns is factory set at 2 seconds, and is adjustable
between one tenth of a second and 4 seconds.
The reason for the timer is to stir the ice so that it
doesn’t fuse together after long periods in the bin.
