Regular maintenance is crucial for keeping your SMARTOOL Slush Machine in top condition and for ensuring the safety and quality of your slush drinks. This guide provides you with a daily and weekly maintenance schedule.
Daily Maintenance
These tasks should be performed at the end of each day.
- Turn Off and Unplug: For safety, always turn off and unplug the machine before cleaning.
- Empty and Rinse the Tanks: Drain any leftover slush mix and rinse the tanks with warm water.
- Clean the Spigots: Use a brush to clean the inside of the dispensing spigots.
- Wipe Down the Exterior: Clean the outside of the machine with a damp cloth.

Weekly Maintenance
A more thorough cleaning and sanitizing should be done at least once a week.
- Disassemble Removable Parts: Take apart the tanks, lids, augers, and spigots.
- Wash and Sanitize: Wash all the parts in warm, soapy water, then immerse them in a food-grade sanitizing solution.
- Air Dry: Allow all the parts to air dry completely before reassembling.
- Clean the Condenser Filter: A clean condenser filter is essential for efficient operation. Remove the filter and wash it with warm water. Let it dry completely before putting it back.

Once a month, you should perform a more detailed inspection of your machine.
