OWNER'S RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE

SEMI–ANNUAL MAINTENANCE

1. GENERAL ICE MACHINE INSPECTION

2. CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

3. CLEANING THE CONDENSER–AIR – COOLED
4. INTERIOR CLEANING–CLEANING PROCEDURES, SANITIZING PROCUDURES
General Ice Machine Inspection
1. Check all water fittings and tubes for leaks. Also, make sure the refrigeration tubing is not rubbing or vibrat-
ing against other tubing panels, etc.
2. Do not stack anything ( boxes, etc.) on or around the ice machine.
3. Do not cover the ice machine while it is operating. There must be adequate air flow through and around the
ice machine to ensure long component life and adequate ice production.
Cleaning the Exterior
1. Clean the area around the ice machine as often as necessary to maintain cleanliness and efficient opera-
tion.
2. Sponge dust and dirt off the outside of the ice machine with mild soap and water. Wipe dry with a soft clean
cloth.
WARNING: Stainless steel panels should be cleaned with mild soap or a commercial
stainless steel cleaner. Do not use cleaners containing bleaching agents; they usually
contain chlorine which stains stainless steel. Heavy stains should be removed with
stainless steel wool. Never use plain steel wool or abrasive pads because they will scratch the
panel and cause rusting.

Cleaning the Condenser

CAUTION: Disconnect electric power to the ice machine at the electric service switch box
before cleaning condenser !
Air–Cooled Condenser
A dirty condenser restricts airflow which results in excessively high operating temperatures. High operating tem-
peratures reduces ice production and shorten component life. Clean the condenser at least every six months.
CAUTION: Condenser fins are sharp. Use care when cleaning them.
