To allow inspection of moving parts inside the equipment while

in operation, the equipment is provided with service handle(s).
As soon as a service handle is lifted out of its holder, the belt
start warning signal is activated and the service handle symbol
will pop-up instead of the start button symbol.
Now nothing can be selected or started from the control unit.
It is only possible to stop the equipment process or deselect

SERVICE HANDLE
The equipment is provided with a service handle which allows
maintenance people to inspect and maintain the equipment while
it is in operation. The service handle by-passes the door/gate
switch.
Note!
The service handle is to be used by maintenance personnel
only.
Warning
The person who starts any function via the
service handle is responsible for the safety
inside and nearby the equipment. Make sure
that correct safety precaution is taken before
any maintenance work is done. This to prevent
personal injury and damage to equipment.
We strongly recommend that persons who are to be

authorized to use the service handle are properly trained on
the safety system.

OPERATION
The chosen functions will continue to operate.

The attention signal is activated and will remain as long
as the handle is out of its holder.
The service handle symbol is shown instead of the start
symbol in the control unit.
Now nothing can be started or selected to start in the
control unit. The equipment can always be stopped in the
control unit or by using one of the emergency stops.
DANGER!
Functions can be started automatically by
programs even when the equipment is being run
from the service handle.
As long as the grip button is in its middle position, the

door/gate switch adjacent to the service handle holder is bypassed. Access is now possible to the equipment. Be
careful with the cable and make sure that it is not tangled up
in moving parts or otherwise causing hazards.
If the grip button is either released or pressed too far (red
light), the equipment shuts down.
The fans will however continue to rotate for minutes from
when switched off. Do not open the plenum chamber door
until they have come to a complete stop.
3. If the equipment is stopped, press the grip button back into

the middle position (green light) and then press the restart
button (not valid for US-market). Now whatever was running
before, will restart.
This provides a practical jogging function, for inspection and
maintenance of the equipment.
4. After use, put the service handle back in its holder in the
protective box and press the reset button.
Note!
To be able to start the equipment, make sure to press the
reset button in order to reactivate the control unit and all the
normal safety functions.
The cable can be coiled up and hanged on the hook under

the protective box.
We recommend the protective box to be provided with a
padlock, to ensure only authorised use of the system.

DEFROSTING
Water or hot gas defrosting.
General
Every time the equipment is defrosted it should be

thoroughly cleaned.
Local conditions must be taken into consideration during
defrosting.
Caution
Do not start the belt until all steel parts have a
temperature above freezing point.
If Frigoscandia LVS FRIGoPAK Refrigeration is installed:

Make sure that the FRIGoPAK mode selector switch is in
remote position.
The equipment can also be defrosted by spraying hot water
inside the freezer.
Note!
When defrosting evaporators with warm water, always check
maximum allowable water temperature with refrigeration system
supplier, with respect to allowable gas pressure generated in the
refrigeration system.
Note!
As soon as a door/gate is opened, the equipment stops and an
alarm is activated.
Before defrosting
1. Remove as much product debris and frost as possible while
it is still frozen.
2. Open the equipment door(s) provided with a safety gate
inside. Open all drain covers.
3. Close the refrigerant supply valve (controlled by the refrigeration unit).
5. Select cleaning mode.
Note!
to restart or select a new cleaning program. This to secure that
a cleaning program is not started by mistake.

be potable water.
Note!
When defrosting evaporators with warm water, always
check maximum allowable water temperature with refrigeration system supplier, with respect to allowable gas pressure
generated in the refrigeration system.
Only use detergents and disinfectants that are suitable for
the materials listed for the equipment. See chapter Operation, Material in equipment.
In order to reduce recontamination, always rinse and foam
from top to bottom.
Make sure that the equipment is thoroughly rinsed from
detergent and disinfectant.
Do not spray water directly on electrical components.
Follow suppliers safety instructions for cleaning solution.
Always wear proper protective clothing during cleaning.
Warning
Always be careful with moving parts in the
freezer during cleaning.
Warning
The evaporator fins are extremely sharp! Use
caution when working in and around the freezer.
Caution
Do not start the conveyor belt until all steel
parts have a temperature above freezing point.

OPERATION
During production
Check for ice build-up on the curve loader

rails (freezers only) :
Move the outer cover (1) outwards
and check the rails (only on GC M58-76).
If there is ice build-up, check function of the
heaters.
Remove the curve loader regularly (or if the
products are deformed) and check that
product debris are not stuck on the belt or
on the upper and lower rails.
Clean if necessary.
Check that the belt engages the drive
sprockets correctly. If the belt starts to mesh
up, the belt length should be adjusted (or
sprockets replaced). See manual sheet
Preventive maintenance, Curve loader,
how to adjust belt length and/or how to install
sprockets.
Listen for odd noises. Call service technician
if any irregularities.
To prevent frost from forming on the belt, a
certain air unbalance in the freezer is
needed. This means that the air flows into
the infeed hole and cold air blows out at the
outfeed hole. Adjust the fan tunnel to create
this air unbalance.
Stopping and removing the

curve loader
Unplug the three electric connections.

Pull out the curve loader until the nose
is outside the equipment wall.
Place the trolley (2) underneath the curve
loader, close to the infeed unit. Hoist the
trolley until the curve loader is free from the
guide rails. Remove the curve loader.
If the equipment is to be operated without the
curve loader, proceed as follows:
2/4
Dismantle the curve loader guide rails (3)

from the infeed unit.*
Mount the belt covers (4).*
Mount inner cover plate (5).
Connect the lose electric plug, hanging
at the infeed unit, to one of the three plug
sockets.
