ICE DISPENSER CONTAINER & RAIL ASSEMBLY
The Ice Dispenser Container slides into the Rail Assembly mounted directly below
the Ice Maker. Ice is ejected from the container by an Ice Auger connected to the
Solenoid Assembly, and dispensed at the bottom front of the container where it
enters through a Gate on the Crusher Housing. The Gate is opened and closed by
a Control Rod that fits in the Actuator of the Solenoid Assembly. The ice is then
directed into an ice chute mounted on the interior of the freezer door. The Ice
Container must be properly placed on the rail assembly to assure proper
dispensing. The container should be slid on top of the rails on the Rail Assembly up
against the Motor Cover, with the Rotation Stop and Ice Auger protruding through
the holes in the back of the Ice Container.
