The cleaner solution will foam whenit contacts lime scale and mineral deposits; once thefoaming stops use a soft bristle brush, sponge or cloth(not a wire brush) to carefully clean the parts. Soakthe parts for 5 minutes (15 – 20 minutes for heavilyscaled parts). Rinse all components with clean water.Step 9 While components are soaking, use ½ of thecleaner/water solution to clean all foodzone surfacesof the ice machine and bin. Use a nylon brush orcloth to thoroughly clean the following ice machineareas:• Evaporator plastic parts – including top, bottomand sides• Bin bottom, sides and topRinse all areas thoroughly with clean water.Step 10 Mix a solution of sanitizer and warm water.Solution Type Water Mixed WithSanitizer 23L. (6 gal) 120ml (4 oz) sanitizerStep 11 Use 1/2 of the sanitizer/water solution tosanitize all removed components.

Do not rinse parts aftersanitizing.Step 12 Use 1/2 of the sanitizer/water solution tosanitize all foodzone surfaces of the ice machine andbin. Use a cloth or sponge to liberally apply thesolution. When sanitizing, pay particular attention tothe following areas:• Evaporator plastic parts - including top, bottomand sides• Bin bottom, sides and topDo not rinse the sanitized areas.Step 13 Replace all removed components.Step 14 Reapply power and water to the ice machineand place the toggle switch in the WASH position.Step 15 Add the proper amount of Manitowoc IceMachine Sanitizer to the water trough.Model Amount of SanitizerQM30 45 ml (1.5 oz)Step16 Wait until the sanitize cycle is complete(approximately 45 minutes) then place the toggleswitch in the OFF position, disconnect power andwater supplies to the ice machine.
