INITIAL START UP

Before Start Up:
1. Check that the ICE-OFF-WASH rocker switch
and the Compressor ON-OFF switch are in the
OFF position.
2. Switch on the electrical power. Electrical power
must be supplied to the ice machine for 12 hours
before starting the compressor for the first time.
The crankcase heater will now warm up the
compressor's oil. The oil is warmed to evaporate
any refrigerant that may have collected in it. If
there is refrigerant in the oil when the compressor
starts, the oil will foam and will not lubricate the
compressor properly, shortening its life.
Do not start the compressor for the first time
unless the dome of the compressor is warm.
Start Up:
1. Remove front panel(s) by removing screws at
the base and pulling out.
2. Remove two screws and the control box cover.
3. OPEN the water supply line shut off valve..
4. Open the "king" valve on the receiver.
5. Inside the control box is the shaft of the timer
and the switch assembly. Rotate the shaft of the
timer and switch assembly clockwise until the
actuator arm on the microswitch drops off outer
cam into cam slot. See "Front View of Timer".
6. Move the ICE-OFF-WASH to the ICE position.
7. Check the water fill cycle: For several minutes
the inlet water valve will be open and water will
flow into the reservoir. Near the end of the fill
cycle, water should be overflowing the reservoir
and draining thru the reservoir drain. If at the end
of the fill cycle the reservoir is not full, repeat step
5.
Check that the sump covers are snapped in place.
Check that the water distributors are properly
seated at the top of the evaporators, and that
water is flowing over all cube cells.
Note: Some water spray from the evaporators is
normal when the machine is new. The spray will
quit after a few cycles.
8. When the sump has filled, move the compressor
ON-OFF toggle switch, to the ON position.
