3.9 SANITIZING
Sanitizing must be done after the machine is cleaned and 
just before the hopper is fi lled with mix. Sanitizing the night 
before is not effective. However, you should always clean 
the machine and parts after each use.
THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICUL-
TURE AND THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION 
REQUIRE THAT ALL CLEANING AND SANITIZING 
SOLUTIONS USED WITH FOOD PROCESSING EQUIP-
MENT BE CERTIFIED FOR THIS USE.
When sanitizing the machine, refer to local sanitary regu-
lations for applicable codes and recommended sanitizing 
products and procedures. The frequency of sanitizing 
must comply with local health regulations.
Mix sanitizer according to manufacturer’s instructions to 
provide a 100 parts per million strength solution. Mix sani-
tizer in quantities of no less than 2 gallons (7.5 liters) of 
90° to 110°F (32° to 43°C) water. Allow sanitizer to contact 
the surfaces to be sanitized for 5 minutes. Any sanitizer 
must be used only in accordance with the manufacturer’s 
instructions.
In general, sanitizing may be conducted as follows:
A.
Prepare Stera-Sheen Green Label Sanitizer 
or equivalent according to manufacturer’s 
instructions to provide a 100ppm strength solution. 
Mix the sanitizer in quantities of no less than 2 
gallons of 90° to 110°F (32° to 43°C) water. Any 
sanitizer must be used only in accordance with 
the manufacturer’s instructions.
B.
Push the mix inlet regulator into hopper with air 
inlet (long) tube toward the front of the machine 
(Fig. 3-9).
C.
Place the Main Freezer Power OFF-ON toggle 
switch in the ON position and press the CLEAN 
switch. Check for leaks. 
D.
Clean sides of hopper, mix inlet regulator and 
underside of hopper cover using a sanitized soft 
bristle brush dipped in the sanitizing solution. 
(Fig. 3-10).
E. After
fi ve minutes, place a bucket under the spigot
and open spigot to drain sanitizing solution. When 
solution has drained, press the CLEAN button to 
stop the auger. Allow the machine barrel to drain 
completely.
