Loading Bulk Milk Dispenser

• Always check the expiration date on the box and/or bag of milk before loading into the dispenser
• Transfer the expiration date onto a dissolvable label
• Place the dissolvable label with expiration date onto outside of the white crate

• Lift bag near locations marked with an “X” on the diagram
• Lower bag of milk into plastic milk crate
• Align tube on bag of milk in slot on milk crate
• Lower bag of milk into milk crate as far as it will go
• Do not tug on tube if it gets caught in gap and does not slide down. Lay crate on its back, remove bag of milk and start over.
• Lift the back of the bag of milk to enable the tube to slide to the bottom and be properly aligned. Open the milk dispenser door, and lower the loading shelf.
• Lift the crate with the tube facing you and slide it into the dispenser
• Remove the clear plastic covering on dispensing tube
• Lift the valve handle, and feed the dispensing tube through top opening in valve until it is full extended. Once the tube is full extended, lower the valve handle.

• Every Wednesday night, defrost and clean the bulk milk dispenser. The dispenser will manually defrost by disconnecting it from the power supply.
• Ensure the bag of milk is removed from the dispenser and stored in the walk-in cooler to maintain a temperature of 34°F - 41°F
• When removing a partially used bag of milk prior to defrosting, the tube must be pinched closed to prevent leaking. Use a binder clip to hold it closed while storing.
