Drain

You must connect the drain line before using the ice machine.
Follow the steps outlined below.
Connecting the drain line:
NOTE: If there is a drain line near the ice machine or it will
be used as an outdoor unit, the best choice is to drain water
to the drain line through the drain hose provided with the ice
machine.
1. Locate the floor drain near the ice machine. The distance
should be less than 6 feet since the drain hose provided with
the ice machine is about 6 feet long. Find the drain outlet on
the back of ice machine. Push the drain hose onto the drain
outlet and insert the other side of the hose into the drain line.
NOTE: The drain hose should never be allowed to hang or loop
higher than the bottom of the ice storage bin.
2. All horizontal runs of drain lines must have a fall of 1/4" per foot. An air gap will likely be required be
tween the ice machine drain hose and the drain/waste receptacle. A stand pipe with a trap below it
would be desireable for the drain/waste receptacle. A floor drain is also acceptable.
3. If a floor drain or another drain is not available, a pump will be needed. We recommend PCP115.
4. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice storage bin to check for leaks at all drain connections and at the
nut of the drain water hole. Tighten any connections or nuts that leak.
IMPORTANT: This ice machine is not a freezer. Infrequent drainage will cause
a high rate of melting in the ice storage bin.
