D.Timer Board
1. Solid-State Timer Board Control
• A HOSHIZAKI exclusive solid-state sequence timer board is employed in Hoshizaki self-
contained flaker icemakers.
• All models are pre-tested and factory-adjusted.
CAUTION
1. Fragile, handle very carefully.
2. The timer board contains CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide
Semiconductor) integrated circuits, which are susceptible to failure due to
static discharge. It is especially important to use an anti-static wrist strap
when handling or replacing the board.
3. Do not touch the electronic devices on the board or the back of the board to
prevent damage to the board.
4. Do not change wiring and connections. Especially, never misconnect
terminals.
5. Do not fix the electronic devices or parts on the board in the field. Always
replace the whole board assembly if it goes bad.
The timer board provides the following safeguards:
• Provides component protection during low water supply.
• Purges remaining ice in the evaporator.
• Provides short cycle protection for the compressor.

E. Sequence of Operation
Hoshizaki utilizes a solid state timer board to switch the components on and off as
needed. The sequence is as follows:
1. Startup
Flush switch in "ICE" position, power switch in "ON" position. FR energizes.
2. Fill Cycle
WV opens and the reservoir fills with water until UF/S closes. Note: GM will not start
unless UF/S is closed. For details, see "IV. Service Diagnosis".
3. Ice Purge Cycle (60 seconds)
WCR energizes, closing the low water safety circuit and de-energizing WV. GMR
energizes (clear relay located on TB). GM starts and GMPR energizes. GM runs for 60
seconds to clear any ice from the evaporator.
Note: Low water safety circuit is terminals 3 and 4 on TB.
4. Freeze Cycle (Ice Making Process)
CR energizes (black relay located on TB). Comp and FMS energize. As the water in the
evaporator cools, ice starts forming within 4 to 6 minutes. This time frame depends on
the inlet water and ambient temperature conditions.
UF/S and LF/S operate WV as needed to continue the ice making process. This
continues until BC shuts the ice maker down or power is turned off to the unit.
5. Shutdown:
BC activates (opens). FR de-energizes, FWV energizes. Approximately 90 seconds after
BC activates, Comp and FMS de-energize, one minute later GMPR de-energizes and
GM stops.
Legend: BC–bin control; Comp–compressor; CR–compressor relay; FMS–self-
contained fan motor; FR–flush relay; FWV–flush water valve; GM–gear motor;
GMPR–gear motor protect relay; GMR–gear motor relay; LF/S–lower float
switch; TB–timer board; UF/S–upper float switch; WCR–water control relay;
WV–inlet water valve.
F. Ice Production Check
To check production, prepare a bucket or pan to catch the ice and a set of scales to
weigh the ice. After the unit has operated for 10 to 20 minutes, catch the ice production
for 10 minutes. Weigh the ice to establish the batch weight. Multiply the batch weight by
144 for the total production in 24 hours.

IV. Service Diagnosis
A. Diagnostic Procedure
This diagnostic procedure is a sequence check that allows you to diagnose the electrical
system and components under normal operating conditions of 70°F or warmer air and
50°F or warmer water temperatures. Before proceeding, check for correct installation,
proper voltage per unit nameplate and adequate water supply.
1) Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet and access the control panel.
2) Plug the unit back in. Make sure the flush switch is in the ICE position, then place the
power switch in the ON position.
3) Fill Cycle – The water valve energizes. The reservoir begins to fill and the lower float
switch closes. Nothing occurs at this time. The reservoir continues to fill and the upper
float switch closes, energizng the water control relay. When the water control relay
energizes, the inlet water valve de-energizes and the low water safety circuit closes to
the timer board. Diagnosis: Check that the water valve fills the reservoir. If not, check
for clogged water filters, clogged water valve screen, power supply to the unit, power
circuit to the water valve (power switch, high pressure switch, transformer, safety switch,
safety relay contacts, fuse, bin control, flush switch, flush relay, flush relay contacts, float
switch, water control relay contacts), and the coil on the water valve.
3) Ice Purge Cycle – (short cycle protection) The gear motor and the gear motor protect
relay energize, and the 60 second compressor short cycle protection timer starts.
Diagnosis: Check that the gear motor starts. If not, check the low water safety circuit
on terminals 3 and 4 on the timer board, check for 120 volts on the gear motor relay
terminal 8 on the timer board, check the gear motor fuse, thermal protector, and gear
motor windings. If the gear motor starts but the auger does not turn: check the gear
motor coupling between the auger and the gear motor. If the compressor starts the
same time the gear motor starts: Check the compressor relay on the timer board (the
black relay on the timer board is the compressor relay).
4) Freeze Cycle – The compressor and fan motor energize, the gear motor, gear motor
protect relay, flush switch relay, and the water control relay remain energized. Ice
production begins 4 to 6 minutes after the compressor and fan motor start depending
on ambient and water conditions. Diagnosis: Check that the compressor and fan
motor are running. If not, check for 120 volts on the compressor relay terminal 4 on the
timer board (the black relay on the timer board is the compressor relay), check for 120
volts on the gear motor protect relay, check gear motor relay contacts 4 and 6, check
voltage on the compressor terminals, check the internal overload (motor protector), the
compressor capacitors, and voltage to the fan motor and fan capacitor.

5) Refill/Low Water Safety Cycle – As ice is produced, the water level in the reservoir
drops. As it drops, the upper float switch and lower float switch open. The upper float
switch opens first. Nothing occurs at this time. When the lower float switch opens, the
refill begins. The water control relay de-energizes, the low water safety circuit opens
(terminals 4 and 6 on the water control relay, 3 and 4 on the timer board), a 90 second
countdown timer begins on the timer board, and the inlet water valve energizes. The
compressor, fan motor and gear motor continue to run. The upper float switch now
has 90 seconds to close before the low water safety timer terminates and shuts down
the unit. Once the upper float switch closes, the water control relay energizes, the
inlet water valve de-energizes and the low water safety 90 second countdown timer
terminates. Diagnosis – Check that the water fill begins. If not, check the lower float
switch, voltage to the inlet water valve, the water control relay, water supply, filters, and
inlet water valve screen.
7) Shutdown – The bin fills and activates the bin control proximity switch. 90 seconds
later the compressor and fan motor de-energize, then 60 seconds later the gear motor
de-energizes. Diagnosis: Check that the bin control paddle is activated and that
the proximity switch opens. If the compressor and gear motor fail to stop, check the
proximity switch and timer board relays.

IMPORTANT
Ensure all components, fasteners and thumbscrews are securely in place after
the equipment is serviced.
IMPORTANT
1. The Polyol Ester (POE) oils used in R-404A units can absorb moisture
quickly. Therefore it is important to prevent moisture from entering the system
when replacing or servicing parts.
2. Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is
opened.
3. Do not leave the system open for longer than 15 minutes when replacing or
servicing parts.
A. Service for Refrigerant Lines
1. Refrigerant Recovery
The icemaker unit is provided with refrigerant access valves. Using proper refrigerant
practices recover the refrigerant from the access valves and store it in an approved
container. Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.
2. Evacuation and Recharge [R-404A]
1) Attach service manifold hoses and a vacuum pump to the system. Be sure to connect
charging hoses to both high-side and low-side access valves.
IMPORTANT
The vacuum level and vacuum pump may be the same as those for current
refrigerants. However, the rubber hose and gauge manifold to be used for
evacuation and refrigerant charge should be exclusively for POE oils.
2) Turn on the vacuum pump. Never allow the oil in the vacuum pump to flow backward.
3) Allow the vacuum pump to pull down to a 29.9" Hg vacuum. Evacuating period depends
on pump capacity.
4) Close the low-side valve and high-side valve on the service manifold.
5) Disconnect the vacuum pump, and attach a refrigerant service cylinder to the high-
side line. Remember to loosen the connection, and purge the air from the hose. See
the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. Hoshizaki recommends only virgin
refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which meets ARI Standard No. 700-88 be used.
6) A liquid charge is recommended for charging an R-404A system. Invert the service
cylinder and place it on scales. Open the high-side, service manifold valve.
7) Allow the system to charge with liquid until the proper charge weight is met.
8) If necessary, add any remaining charge to the system through the low-side. Use a
throttling valve or liquid dispensing device to add the remaining liquid charge through
33

the low-side access port with the unit running.
9) Close the two refrigerant access valves, and disconnect the service manifold hoses.
10) Cap the access valves to prevent a possible leak.
B. Brazing
WARNING
1. Refrigerant R-404A itself is not flammable at atmospheric pressure and
temperatures up to 176°F.
2. Refrigerant R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when
exposed to high temperatures (open flames) R-404A can be decomposed to
form hydrofluoric acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.
3. Always recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container. Do not
discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.
4. Do not use silver alloy or copper alloy containing arsenic.
5. Do not use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.
Refrigerant leaks can be detected by charging the unit with a little refrigerant,
raising the pressure with nitrogen and using an electronic leak detector.
Note: All brazing connections are clear-paint coated. Use sandpaper to remove the
coating from the brazing connections before unbrazing the components.

Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been
made.
Note: When replacing a compressor with a defective winding, be sure to install the
new start capacitor and start relay supplied with the replacement compressor.
Due to the ability of the POE oil in the compressor to absorb moisture quickly,
the compressor must not be opened more than 15 minutes for replacement or
service. Do not mix lubricants of different compressors even if both are charged
with R-404A, except when they use the same lubricant.
1) Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet.

manual and labels provided with the icemaker.
2. To have the optimum unit performance, the following parts need periodic
inspection and maintenance:
Extruding Head and Upper Bearing
Housing and Lower Bearing
Mechanical Seal
Auger
Evaporator Cylinder
Gear Motor
These parts should be inspected at least once a year or every 10,000 hours
of operation. Their service life, however, depends on water quality and
environment. More frequent inspection and maintenance are recommended in
bad or severe water conditions.
Replacement of the following consumable parts is recommended if wear
exceeds factory recommendations:
Upper Bearing
Lower Bearing
Mechanical Seal
Consult with your local distributor about inspection and maintenance service.
To obtain the name and phone number of your local distributor, call Hoshizaki
Technical Support at 1-800-233-1940.
1) Stainless Steel Exterior
To prevent corrosion, wipe the exterior occasionally with a clean and soft cloth. Use a
damp cloth containing a neutral cleaner to wipe off oil or dirt build up.
2) Storage Bin and Scoop
• Wash your hands before removing ice. Use the plastic scoop provided (bin accessory).
• The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the bin.
• Keep the scoop clean. Clean using a neutral cleaner and rinse thoroughly.
• Clean the bin liner using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
3) Air Filter
A plastic mesh air filter 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 clogged, use warm water and a neutral
cleaner to wash the filter.
4) Condenser
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.
