For The Plumber

connect to

water

(observe local codes)

1. Use VI” (6 mm) OD soft copper tubing for

the cold water supply.

2. Provide a convenient manual shut-off valve

in the water line.

3. Position the tubing so it can enter the

access hole located in the right hand rear of

the cabinet. The tubing should extend

beyond the cabinet front when the

cabinet is pushed back into position.

NOTES:

Always purge the water line before making the

final connection to the inlet of the water valve

to prevent possible water valve malfunction.

After the cabinet is in place, bend the tubing to

meet the connection at the water valve. The

garden hose-threaded compression fitting is

found in the parts bag. This joint provides a

convenient disconnect for service. Be sure the

tubing is clear of compressor to prevent rattle.

2. The ideal installation has a standpipe (1-l/4”

[32 mm] minimum) installed directly below

the outlet of the drain tube. Refer to figures

for the proper location of the standpipe.

3. It may be desirable to insulate drain line

thoroughly up to drain inlet.

Connect drain pump

If a drain connection directly below the drain

tube outlet is not available, install a drain pump

in the rear compartment of the ice maker. The

drain pump must meet these specifications:

It must be U.L.-listed and have a U.L.-

listed, 120 VAC, 3-wire, grounded power

supply cord.

For The Electrician

Electrical1 requirements

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15 or 20 ampere

electrical supply circuit, properly grounded in

accordance with the National Electrical Code

and local codes and ordinances is required.

It is recommended that a separate circuit,

serving only this appliance, be provided. Use a

receptacle which cannot be turned off with a

switch of pull chain. DO NOT use an extension

cord.

Grounding method

! A-

A *

Electrical Shock Hazard

Electrical ground is required on this

ice maker.

Do Not ground to a gas pipe.

Do Not change the power supply cord

plug. If it does not fit the outlet, have

a proper outlet installed by a qualified

electrician.

Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or

grounding circuit. A fuse in the

neutral or grounding circuit could

result in an electrical shock.

Do Not use an extension cord with

this ice maker.

Check with a qualified electrician if

you are in doubt as to whether the

appliance is properly grounded.

Failure to follow these instructions

could result in death or serious

injury.

3-prong grounding-type

For your personal safety, this appliance

must be grounded. This appliance is

equipped with a power supply cord having

a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize

possible shock hazard, the cord must be

plugged into a mating

3-prong grounding type wall receptacle,

grounded in accordance with the National

Electrical Code and local codes and

ordinances. If a mating wall receptacle is

not available, it is the personal responsibil-

ity and obligation of the customer to have

a properly grounded 3-prong wall recep-

tacle installed by a qualified electrician.

How The Ice Maker Works

l Compressor runs

. Condenser fan runs

l Water pump runs (circulates water)

l Cutter grid is warm to touch

WHEN THE DESIRED ICE SLAB THICK-

NESS IS REACHED, THE HARVEST CYCLE

BEGINS AND THE FOLLOWING HAPPENS:

l Evaporator thermostat is satisfied

. Compressor keeps running

l Condenser fan stops or turns very slowly

l Water pump stops

l Hot gas solenoid opens

l Water inlet valve opens

l Excess water is flushed out of the drain pan

l Cutter grid is warm to the touch

NOTE: Normal harvest cycle takes 1 to

2 minutes.

MACHINE RESUMES FREEZING AFTER

SLAB IS RELEASED FROM EVAPORATOR

AND THE CUlTING PROCESS BEGINS.

WHEN THE STORAGE BIN IS FILLED, BIN

THERMOSTAT OPENS.

l Cutter grid remains on

Things To Remember

l Water enters only during the defrost cycle

Therefore the first cycle will be completed

without water in the system.

l As the room and water temperatures vary, so

will the amount of ice produced. This means

that higher operating temperatures will result

in reduced ice production.

l The unit will shut off when ice in the storage

bin touches the bin thermostat well and will

automatically cycle to keep the bin full.

l The storage bin is not refrigerated and some

melting will occur. This also varies with the

room temperature.

l The unit needs good air circulation to

perform efficiently. Keep the front grille and

the condenser clean.

l The water system, including filter screen in

the water inlet solenoid valve, needs to be

cleaned periodically for good circulation.

Instructions are located on the inner door

panel.

Operating Instructions

l For complete operation information, refer to

the Use and Care Guide.

l Before starting, wash out interior of cabinet

with a Baking Soda solution (2 tablespoons

[26 grams] soda to 1 quart [l liter] of warm

water). Rinse thoroughly.

l Make certain the water is turned on.

l Turn switch to the “ON” position.

IMPORTANT: Allow unit to run for 3 hours

before expecting ice and for 24 hours before

trying to set the thickness control.

If installed above 2,000 feet (600 m) above

sea level, see page 2 for thermostat

adjustments.

CUBELET GRID

3/4”

3/i”

(19 mm x 19 mm)

Unit Wiring Diagrams

This model operates at 115 volts except for the

cutter grid circuit which operates at 8.5 volts at

1 amp.

The compressor runs at all times except when

the Bin Thermostat becomes satisfied and

opens the circuit. This de-energizes the system

except for the transformer and cutter grid.

Under normal operating conditions, when the

evaporator reaches the preset temperature

(+lO” to -3°F [-12” to -19%], depending on

thickness of ice) the evaporator thermostat

opens, terminating operation of the fan motor

and pump motor. The hot gas solenoid and the

water valve solenoid are energized at this time

and remain so until the evaporator reaches

38” + 2°F (3” + 1“C).

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before servicing

unit.

Failure to do so could result in

electrical shock.

NOTE: A 15 or 20-ampere time-delay fuse

or circuit breaker is recommended.

Check Operation

Start the unit by turning the service

switch to “ON” and opening the line d

water valve.

NOTE: Left is “OFF” - Middle is “ON” -

Right is “CLEAN.” In “CLEAN” position,

only the pump operates.

Check condenser fan to make sure it is

revolving. Check for airflow. Do not

insert hand into fan area. d

Water will not enter pump pan until

freezing plate gets cold and machine

goes into a harvest cycle.

Check for even water flow over freezing

plate. Unit must be level for proper

operation.

Check for desired cube thickness and

after 24 hours adjust if necessary. Max-

imum ice yield will be obtained with ice

thickness at %” (13 mm) to %” (16 mm).

Replace grille.
