What is important to know about cleaning and sanitizing the cheese shredder?

To prevent illness or death caused by the spread of food-borne pathogens, it is important to properly clean and sanitize the GSCS2/GSCS3, as any surface can become contaminated. It is the responsibility of the owner/operator to follow all guidelines, instructions, and laws as established by local and state health departments and the manufacturers of chemical sanitizers. Once the GSCS2/GSCS3 makes contact with food product, the entire GSCS2/GSCS3, including removable parts, must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized. This process is to be repeated at least every 4 hours using these procedures and information and must comply with additional laws from state and local health departments. It is extremely important to properly sanitize the entire GSCS2/ GSCS3 and to closely follow the instructions on the quaternary sanitizer container to make sure proper sanitation is achieved to kill potentially harmful bacteria. If a chemical sanitizer other than chlorine, iodine, or quaternary ammonium is used, it must be applied in accordance with the EPA-registered label use instructions. Excessive amounts of sanitizer and use of products not formulated for stainless steel or aluminum can damage the equipment and VOID the warranty. Sanitizer concentration must comply with section 4-501.114, Manual and Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Chemical Sanitization – Temperature, pH, Concentration, and Hardness of the FDA Food Code.
