1) Remove the top panel and the front panel to prevent damage when installing the
icemaker.
2) Remove the package containing the accessories.
3) Remove the protective plastic film from the panels. If the icemaker is exposed to the sun
or to heat, remove the film after the icemaker cools.
4) Check that the refrigerant lines do not rub or touch lines or other surfaces, and that the
fan blade turns freely.
5) Check that the compressor is snug on all mounting pads.
6) See the nameplate on the rear panel, and check that your voltage supplied corresponds
with the voltage specified on the nameplate.

2. Location
IMPORTANT
This icemaker is not intended for outdoor use. Normal operating ambient
temperature should be within +45°F (7°C) to +100°F (38°C); Normal
operating water temperature should be within +45°F (7°C) to +90°F (32°C).
Operation of the icemaker, for extended periods, outside of these normal
temperature ranges may affect production capacity.
For best operating results:
• Icemaker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other high heat producing
equipment.
• Level the icemaker from side-to-side and front-to-rear by adjusting the legs. Location
should provide a firm and level foundation for the equipment.
• Allow 6" (15 cm.) clearance at rear and top for ease of maintenance and/or service should
they be required.
3. Electrical Connection
• This icemaker must have a separate power supply or receptacle of proper capacity. See
the nameplate.
• Usually an electrical permit and services of a licensed electrician are required.

4. Water Supply and Drain Connections
See Fig. 1
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the equipment, do not operate the icemaker when the
water supply is OFF, or if the pressure is below 10 PSIG (0.7 bar). Do not
run the icemaker until the proper water pressure is reached.
• Water supply inlet is 1/2" FPT.
Note: On water-cooled model, two water supply inlets are provided. One is the ice
making water inlet, and the other (1/2" FPT) is the cooling water inlet.
• A water supply line shut-off valve and drain valve should be installed. A minimum of 3/8"
OD copper tubing is recommended for the water supply lines.
• Water supply pressure should be a minimum of 10 PSIG (0.7 bar) and a maximum of 113
PSIG(7.5bar). Ifthepressureexceeds113PSIG(7.5bar), theuseofapressurereducing
valve is required.
• Drain outlet for icemaker dump is 3/4" FPT. The bin drain is 3/4" FPT. The icemaker drain
and the condenser drain piping connections must be made separately from the bin drain.
Note: On water-cooled model, a 1/2" FPT is provided for the condenser drain outlet.
• The drains must have 1/4" fall per foot (2 cm. per meter) on horizontal runs to get a good
flow.
• The drains should not be piped directly to the sewer system. An air gap of a minimum of
2 vertical inches ( 5 cm.) should be between the end of the drain pipe from the icemaker
or the ice bin and the floor drain.
• This icemaker should be installed in accordance with applicable national, state and local
regulations.
• A plumbing permit and services of a licensed plumber may be required in some areas.
• In some areas, a back flow preventer may be required in the cooling water circuit.

2. Maintenance
IMPORTANT
This icemaker must be maintained individually, referring to the instruction
manual and labels provided with the icemaker.
1) Exterior Panels
Tokeeptheexteriorclean, wipeoccasionallywithacleanandsoftcloth. Useadamp
cloth containing a neutral cleaner to wipe off oil or dirt build up.
2) Storage Bin and Scoop
•Washyourhandsbeforeremovingice. Usetheplasticscoopprovided(Accessory).
• The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the bin.
• Keep the scoop clean. Clean it by using a neutral cleaner and rinse thoroughly.
• Clean the bin liner by using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
3) Air Filter (air-cooled model only)
The plastic mesh air filter located behind the louver removes dirt or dust from the air,
and keeps the condenser from getting clogged. As the filter gets clogged, the
icemaker’s performance will be reduced. Check the filter at least twice a month.
When it is clogged, use warm water and a neutral cleaner to wash the filter.
4) Condenser (air-cooled model only)
Check the condenser once a year and clean if required by using a brush or vacuum
cleaner. More frequent cleaning may be required depending on the location of the
icemaker.
