MAINTENANCE AND 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.
It is the USER'S RESPONSIBILITY to see that the unit is properly maintained. It is always preferable, and
less costly in the long run, to avoid possible down time by keeping it clean; adjusting it as needed; and by
replacing worn parts before they can cause failure. The following is a list of recommended maintenance
that will help keep the machine running with a minimum of problems.
Maintenance and Cleaning should be scheduled at a minimum of twice per year.
Electrical power will be ON when doing in
place cleaning.
ICEMAKING SYSTEM: In place cleaning
1. Check and clean any water treatment devices,
if any are installed.
2. Pull out and remove the front panel.
3. Move the ON-OFF switch to OFF.
4. Remove all the ice from the storage bin.
