Care and Operation of Minnetonna Home Creamery 63 



Give the barrel a good thorough soaking. Keep in 

 the hot water until there is not the slightest sign of a 

 leak at cover or in heads. 



Let the Barrel Cool Off Itself. Do Not Use Cold 

 Water to Cool the Barrel. 



As soon as the barrel is completely cooled off, 

 tighten the barrel straps. If the cover is too tight, 

 loosen it easily at strap loops No. 218. 



Follow these instructions and the barrel will not 

 leak. If you churn twice each week it will probably 

 not be necessary to ever soak barrel again, but should 

 barrel leak at any time, due perhaps to the fact that 

 you may not have used it for a long time, all you need 

 to do is to soak it again according to these instruc- 

 tions. 



Be sure that roll screw No. 283 is turned into place. 



If you have any trouble write and tell us about it 

 and we will tell you what to do.
