Beater Rotation

NOTICE! Beater rotation must be clockwise as

viewed looking into the freezing cylinder.

To correct the rotation on a three-phase machine,

interchange any two incoming power supply lines at the

freezer main terminal block only. To correct rotation on a

single-phase machine, exchange leads inside the beater

motor. (Follow the diagram printed on the motor.)

Electrical connections are made directly to the terminal

block provided in the main control box located behind the

service panel.

It is recommended that beater rotation adjustment be

performed by a Taylor service technician.

Refrigerant

CAUTION! This machine contains fluorinated

greenhouse gases (F-Gas) to provide refrigeration using

a hermetically sealed circuit or within foam insulation.

This machine’s type of gas, quantity, Global Warming

Potential (GWP), and CO2tonnes equivalent information

is recorded on the machine’s data label. The refrigerant

used is generally considered nontoxic and

nonflammable. However any gas under pressure is

potentially hazardous and must be handled with caution.

NEVER fill any refrigerant cylinder completely with liquid.

Filling the cylinder approximately 80% will allow for

normal expansion.

CAUTION! Use only approved refrigerant

listed on the machine's data label or authorized through a

manufacturer's technical bulletin. The use of any other

refrigerant may expose users and operators to

unexpected safety hazards.

WARNING! Refrigerant liquid sprayed onto the

skin may cause serious damage to tissue. Keep eyes

and skin protected. If refrigerant burns should occur,

flush the area immediately with cold water. If burns are

severe, apply ice packs and contact a physician

immediately.

NOTICE! Taylor reminds technicians to be

aware of and in compliance with local government laws

regarding refrigerant recovery, recycling, and reclaiming

systems. For information regarding applicable local laws,

please contact your local authorized Taylor distributor.

IMPORTANT! Refrigerants and their

associated lubricants may be extremely moisture

absorbent. When opening a refrigeration system, the

maximum time the system is open must not exceed 15

minutes. Cap all open tubing to prevent humid air or

water from being absorbed by the oil.

Refrigeration Charging and Line

Construction

The dispensing machine is shipped with a refrigerant

holding charge that is sufficient enough to prevent

moisture contamination (8 oz. [227 g] R404A). This

holding charge will become part of the total system

charge.

Setup Procedures

Standard Fill Module

1. Connect the product supply line to the 1/4 in. barbed

fitting on the fill module. Adjust the fill system

pressure to deliver product to the hopper at 1.5 oz. to 

2.5 oz. (42.5 g to 70.9 g) per second. (Approximately

15 PSIG to 20 PSIG [103 kPa to 138 kPa] for most

products.)

2. Lubricate, assemble, sanitize, and prime the

dispenser as outlined in “Assembly” on page 6-1.

3. Place the fill switch in the FILL position. Allow the

product to fill the cylinder and the hopper until the mix

level float is satisfied.

4. Place the control switch in the AUTO position.

5. To observe the suction pressure, attach refrigeration

gauges to the suction access fitting in the dispenser.

Pressures should read approximately 32 psi. 

(221 kPa) for non-alcoholic application and 28 psi.

(193 kPa) for alcoholic application.

Note: Connection to the condensing unit suction

access can give an improper reading.

6. Allow the dispenser to run until the condensing unit

cycles off.

7. If necessary, adjust viscosity to produce satisfactory

product. Adjustments are made by turning the

viscosity adjustment screw (located on the front

panel) clockwise for a thicker product or

counterclockwise for a thinner product.

Machines Equipped with Post Mix Valve

1. Connect syrup and water lines.

Note: Adjust the syrup supply pressure to maintain

60 PSIG. Water pressure between 40 PSIG and 100

PSIG may require regulated water supply.

2. Turn the fill switch in the front of the RD30 to the FILL

position.

3. Press and hold the area on the front of the post mix

valve marked PUSH to prime the fill system. Priming

is required until the BIB switch and the float switch

are both satisfied. Priming is complete when product

will flow without pressing the PUSH button.

4. To adjust either the syrup or water flow rate, turn the

flow adjustment screw clockwise to increase flow, or

counterclockwise to decrease flow. Adjust the screws

until the desired brix is obtained. The flow rate should

be 1.5 oz. to 2.5 oz. (43 mL to 74 mL) per second.

Note: Both syrup and water flow adjustment screws

are located inside the post mix valve cover. Viewed

from the front, the syrup adjustment screw is on the

right and water adjustment is on the left.

In the event you should require technical assistance,

please contact your local authorized Taylor distributor.

Note: Your Taylor warranty is valid only if the parts are

authorized Taylor parts, purchased from the local

authorized Taylor distributor, and only if all required

service work is provided by a Taylor service technician.

Taylor reserves the right to deny warranty claims on units

or parts if unapproved parts or incorrect refrigerant were

installed in the unit, system modifications were performed

beyond factory recommendations, or it is determined that

the failure was caused by abuse, misuse, neglect, or

failure to follow all operating instructions. For full details

of your Taylor warranty, please see the Limited Warranty

section in this manual.

Note: Constant research results in steady

improvements. Therefore, information in this manual is

subject to change without notice.

IMPORTANT! If the crossed-out wheeled-bin

symbol is affixed to this machine, it signifies that this

machine is compliant with the EU Directives as well as

other similar end-of-life legislation in effect after August

13, 2005. Therefore, it must be collected separately after

its use is completed and cannot be disposed as unsorted

municipal waste.

TO THE OPERATOR

Models RD30/RC25 To the Operator

Compressor Warranty Disclaimer

The refrigeration compressor(s) on this unit are

warranted for the term stated in the Limited Warranty

section in this manual. However, due to the Montreal

Protocol and the U.S. Clean Air Act Amendments of

1990, many new refrigerants are being tested and

developed, thus seeking their way into the service

industry. Some of these new refrigerants are being

advertised as drop-in replacements for numerous

applications. It should be noted that in the event of

ordinary service to this unit’s refrigeration system, only

the refrigerant specified on the affixed data label

should be used. The unauthorized use of alternate

refrigerants will void your Taylor compressor warranty. It

is the unit owner’s responsibility to make this fact known

to any technician he/she employs.

It should also be noted that Taylor does not warrant the

refrigerant used in its equipment. For example, if the

refrigerant is lost during the course of ordinary service to

this machine, Taylor has no obligation to either supply or

provide its replacement either at billable or unbillable

terms. Taylor does have the obligation to recommend a

suitable replacement if the original refrigerant is banned,

obsoleted, or no longer available during the five-year

warranty of the compressor.

Taylor will continue to monitor the industry and test new

alternates as they are being developed. Should a new

alternate prove, through our testing, that it would be

accepted as a drop-in replacement, then the above

disclaimer would become null and void. To find out the

current status of an alternate refrigerant as it relates to

your compressor warranty, call the local Taylor distributor

or the Taylor factory. Be prepared to provide the 

model/serial number of the machine in question.
