2. Thicker Bridge - turn the ice thickness POT adjusting screw counterclockwise
one full turn. Allow two cycles before determining if additional adjustments are
required.
NOTE: Never judge the thickness of the ice from the first batch of the ice pro-
duced — the first cycle is a balance cycle. Always wait for the second
cycle before making any adjustments.

1.6 Condenser Fan Cycling Control

The condenser fan on air cooled ice machines is cycled by the circuit board. The con-
denser sensor signals the circuit board when the condenser temperature reaches 100°
F (38° C). The fan starts and continues to run until the temperature is reduced to 88°
F (31° C).
NOTE: Integral condenser ice machines do not use pressure to cycle the condenser
fan motor.
NOTE: Remote condenser units use a fan cycling pressure switch. "ON" 280 PSI
(19.3 BAR), "OFF" 230 PSI (15.9 BAR).

1.7 Sensor

Premature harvest is normally caused by a defect in suction line sensors!
If the ice machine will not go into harvest, the suction line temperature must be
checked (approximately 0° F (-18° C)!
