    If on the first cycle, check out the cam operation and/or toggle switch. If the machine has been in service for some time, the controller board may be at fault. REMEMBER: Hoshizaki controllers are very reliable. They also control every component’s operation. So if a component malfunctions, the controller will respond.

  • Page 13: [E] Controls And Adjustment

    [e] CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENT 1) Cube Control (DSW1) A cube control on the controller board is factory adjusted to produce constant cubes all year around. When the user needs ice cubes with smaller or larger diameter holes, adjust the rotary switch DSW1 (cube control) using a miniature Phillips screwdriver. CAUTION When adjusting the rotary switch DSW1 for smaller dimple cubes, it may be necessary to also increase the water supply time to melt away fragments...
  • Page 14 3) Water Supply Control (DSW4) When adjusting the rotary switch DSW1 (cube control) for smaller dimple cubes, it may be necessary to adjust the water supply time setting as well, following the instruction be- low. Note: Any adjustment will not be required under normal use. If an insufficient water supply results in production of cloudy ice, check to see if the filter of the water valve is clogged or water pressure is reduced.

    III. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 1. IN CASE OF LOW WATER 1) Remove the switch cover, and turn off the power switch. Lift off 2) Close the water tap. 3) Unlock the front panel (upper) by turning Unlock the hook counterclockwise with a flat blade screwdriver.
  • Page 16: Maintenance

    IV. MAINTENANCE WARNING 1. Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operations, unplug the ice dispenser from the electrical supply network. 2. A trained service person should clean and sanitize the ice dispenser water system at least twice a year. The condenser should be checked and cleaned at least once a year.

    4. SEQUENCE 1) When the water supply tap is opened and the unit is energized, the hot gas valve opens to let hot gas flow and the actuator motor starts to open the water pan. When the cam pushes down the actuator toggle switch lever to the left, the hot gas valve closes and the actuator motor starts to turn in the reverse direction.
  • Page 24 4) As the unit repeats the above freeze and defrost cycles, the storage bin is gradually filled with ice. When a certain level is reached, the bin control switch (microswitch to shut off the circuit) detects the ice cubes to shut down the unit. When the storage level decreases, another freeze cycle starts.

    2. SERVICE FOR REFRIGERANT LINES [a] SERVICE INFORMATION 1) Allowable Compressor Opening Time and Prevention of Lubricant Mixture [R134a] The compressor must not be opened more than 30 minutes in replacement or service. Do not mix lubricants of different compressors even if both are charged with the same refrigerant, except when they use the same lubricant.
  • Page 33: [B] Refrigerant Recovery

    7) Evacuation, Vacuum Pump and Refrigerant Charge [R134a] Never allow the oil in the vacuum pump to flow backward. The vacuum level and vacuum pump may be the same as those for the current refrigerants. However, the rubber hose and gauge manifold to be used for evacuation and refrigerant charge should be exclusively for R134a.
  • Page 34: Compressor

    Note: Always charge in the liquid stage, as many refrigerants are blends and vapour charging will affect the blend consistency. 7) Turn on the ice dispenser. Release the high-side access connector, and allow pressure in the charging line to slowly enter the low side of the system. Cap off the high-side access valve.
