CLEANING
Remote Condenser
1. Shut off the ice machine.
2. Remove dirt and debris that might be under the
condenser.
3. Brush off the bottom of the condenser fins. Do
not use a wire brush.
4. Check to see that the inside of the condenser is
clean; light should be visible through the fins. If
not, clean the internal parts by vacuum, pressure
washer and/or coil cleaner.
Ice Storage Bin
The interior liner of the bin is in contact with a food
grade product: ice. The storage bin must be
cleaned regularly to maintain a sanitary
environment. Scale that may form on the plastic
liner of a bin may be removed by scrubbing the
surface of the line with a mixture of Scotsman Ice
Machine Cleaner and hot water. Remove any
scale prior to sanitizing.
Note: Some ice storage bins have Stainless
Steel liners. They may become stained from
chlorine gases released from the water. These
stains must be removed by regular cleaning to
prevent pitting of the metal liner. To prevent the
staining, an activated charcoal filter should be
added to the ice machines incoming water
supply line; activated charcoal removes the
chlorine. This may require more frequent
sanitation.
The fan blade can cause
personal injury.
Disconnect power
before beginning to
clean condenser.
To remove scale:
1. Mix a cleaning solution of 4 ounces of Scotsman
Ice Machine Cleaner to 4 pints of hot (95
0
110 F.) water.
2. Remove all ice from the bin.
3. Using rubber gloves, dip a nylon scouring pad
into the cleaning solution, and scrub the scale off
of the liner.
4. After the scale has been removed, rinse all of
the surfaces inside the bin with clean, potable
water.
To sanitize the bin and ice machine:
Follow local codes for frequency of sanitizing. Use
an approved sanitizer and follow the directions and
warnings of that sanitizer or use the following
instructions for use of household bleach, if it meets
local codes:
1. Remove all ice from the bin.
2. Mix a sanitizing solution of 1 ounce of
household bleach to 2 gallons of water.
3. Using clean rubber gloves and a clean cloth,
wipe all interior surfaces of the ice machine and
ice storage bin with the sanitizing solution.
Immerse any small parts in the sanitizing solution
and wash the parts, flushing the solution
thoroughly in, over and through all parts and
surfaces of the parts being cleaned.
4. Allow to air dry.
