What should I do if the Tri-Liminator water filter system is not effectively inhibiting scale formation?

If the Tri-Liminator water filter system in your Manitowoc QM-45A ice-cream maker is not effectively inhibiting scale formation, follow these steps to troubleshoot the issue: 1.

Flush the system: Perform a system flush to remove any trapped air or debris that may be affecting the filter's performance. Follow the instructions in the user manual to initiate a flush cycle. 5. Contact customer support: If the issue persists after following the above steps, it is recommended to contact Manitowoc customer support for further assistance. They can provide specific troubleshooting guidance or arrange for a service technician to inspect the water filter system.
