Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Setup & Pre-Cooling: Place the unit on a flat, level, heat-resistant counter with adequate airflow around the side vents. Plug into a dedicated 240V 10A outlet. Prepare your frozen beverage mix ensuring sugar levels sit between 12% and 14% (Brix scale) to ensure correct freezing consistency.

2. Pouring & Freezing: Fill the 12L bowl with pre-mixed liquid between the MIN and MAX markers. Turn on the refrigeration and auger switches. Allow the machine to freeze down until the thermostat cuts off at your target slush density.

3. Daily Cleaning & Hygiene: Turn off refrigeration at the end of trading shifts. Drain remaining beverage, fill bowl with warm water, and flush through the push/pull tap. Remove bowl assembly, auger, and tap seals without tools for thorough washing in warm soapy water and food-safe sanitiser.
