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 bowl, remove the lid (3) from the machine.
• Rinse the bowl 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 bowl. Use an appropriate tool or the hard bristle pipe cleaner (14)
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.
• 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 (14) can be
used. After any operation, the cleaning tool must be carefully rinsed with warm water.
• Pull out the tap (9) and let the water+detergent flows out.
• By flowing out the hot water, carefully clean the discharge tube (8) by introducing an appropriate cleaning tool. The
hard bristle pipe cleaner (14) 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 bowl and the discharge tube (8) 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), (19) (simply by pulling them), the interlocking buffers (20) (by pushing them out from the
blade) and the bushing (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 (14) 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 (14) or any other appropriate tool, carefully clean the body and the recessed
and/or hidden areas of the inserts (18), (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 bushing (17). Leave them all fully immersed in the basket with the solution
prepared above for the time required then, by using the hard bristle pipe cleaner (14) or any other appropriate tool,
carefully clean the body and the recessed and/or hidden areas of the bushing (17) like the ORgasket throats.
• Separate the ORs gaskets from the tap (9). Leave them all fully immersed in the basket with the solution prepared
above for the time required then, by using the hard bristle pipe cleaner (14) or any other appropriate tool, carefully
clean the body and the recessed and/or hidden areas of the tap (9) like the ORs throats.
• Pull out the OR from the ring (4). Leave them all fully immersed in the basket with the solution prepared above for
the time required then, by using the hard bristle pipe cleaner (14) or any other appropriate tool, carefully clean the
body of the ring and the recessed and/or hidden areas of the nut (4) like the OR gasket throat and the thread hole.
• Leave the lid (3), the lid cap (3a) and his silicon cap fully immersed in the basket with the solution prepared above
