    MCM1062R INITIAL START UP Remote Condenser: 1. Check that all connections have been made. Ice Maker: 1. Remove front panel by pulling out to unsnap. 2. Remove two screws and the control box cover. 3. Remove the evaporator cover. 4. Remove the left side service panel. 5.
  • Page 13 3. Hold a flat object about the size of this service manual over the ice level sensor socket. 4. The ice machine should turn off at the end of the harvest cycle. 5. Slowly lower the flat object straight down.
  • Page 14: Adjustments

    MICROSWITCH one-half minutes is the defrost/harvest cycle. Rotating the shaft of the timer cam clockwise will put the ice machine in the freeze or harvest cycle. ////////////////////////////// WARNING /////////////////////////////// Disconnect electrical power supply to icemaker whenever adjustment procedures are performed.
  • Page 15: Component Description

    COMPONENT DESCRIPTION Compressor Contactor The compressor contactor carries the compressor line current. The contactor is wired so any control in the pilot circuit, such as the bin control, and high pressure controls, etc., will cause the contactor holding coil to be de energized, when the control contact OPENS, thereby breaking the circuit to the compressor.
  • Page 16 Ice Level Control This electronic control uses sound waves to measure the distance between the bottom of the ice machine and the top of the ice in the bin. It is designed to control the machines ice production to maintain that distance.
  • Page 17 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION Electric Water Inlet Valve The water inlet solenoid valve fills the reservoir assembly with water. Excess water overflows out the overflow standpipe located at the back of the reservoir. This action fills and rinses the reservoir during each harvest cycle. The flow rate is .75 g.p.m.

  • Page 19: Cleaning

    CLEANING /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// A Scotsman Ice System represents a sizable investment of time and money in any company’s business. In order to receive the best return for that investment, it MUST receive periodic maintenance. Maintenance and Cleaning should be scheduled at a minimum of twice per year.
  • Page 20 10. Replace the evaporator cover. Replace the front panel. 11. Move the master switch to ON. SCOTSMAN REMOTE CONDENSER 1. Disconnect electrical power at the icemaker. ///////////////////////////////WARNING/////////////////////////// Disconnect electrical power before beginning. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// 2.
  • Page 21 FREEZING CYCLE OPERATION Water from the sump assembly is pumped to the water distributor system at the top of each evaporator plate. From the water distributor the water cascades by gravity over all cells of the plate and to the sump assembly below. At the beginning of the freezing cycle, the electrical circuit is completed to the compressor and the water pump.
  • Page 22 MCM1062R HARVEST CYCLE - HOT GAS BYPASS When the timer switches the icemaker into the harvest cycle, high pressure, high temperature gas refrigerant being discharged from the compressor is diverted from the condenser through the hot gas solenoid valve into each evaporator plate. During this cycle, the refrigerant bypasses the condenser.
  • Page 23: Service Diagnosis

    SERVICE DIAGNOSIS SYMPTOM No ice, machine does not run No ice, compressor does not run, rest of ice machine does. No ice, no water over evaporators No ice, everything runs Low ice production POSSIBLE CAUSE 1. No electrical power 2. Circuit breaker tripped or fuse blown 3.
  • Page 24 MCM1062R SERVICE DIAGNOSIS SYMPTOM Low ice production No ice falling in bin, unit frozen up Ice maker stuck in harvest cycle Ice is mal-formed Water overflows from reservoir into bin. POSSIBLE CAUSE 3. High head pressure, a result of a dirty condenser 4.
  • Page 25 SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Ice Level Control Circuit CONDITION Ice Machine does not run, it has power to it, the high pressure control is closed, the on/off switch is set to ON (the compressor will not operate until the liquid line valve opens, but the pump should be working if there is no ice in the bin).
