Initial Start Up

Remove front and right side panels.
Remove all shipping materials from the ice machine
including the water plate shipping strap. See the
photo.
Install the bin level probe into the ice storage bin.
See the illustration.
Be sure that the on-off switch is in the "OFF" position
and the make ice-clean selector switch is in the
"CLEAN" position.
1. Turn on the water supply and the electrical power
and check all supply lines for leaks.
2. Move the on-off switch to the "ON" position and
observe the water flowing from the distributor
tube, filling the water tank. Also observe that
the water pump is circulating water through the
system. The water fill is complete when the
water level in the probe tube reaches the high-
level probe. Observe that the water valve is
de-energized at this time and there are no water
leaks from the hoses or water tank into the drain
pan.
3. Pull down on the right side of the water plate,
stretching the springs until the actuator motor
rotates the cam arms counter-clockwise. Observe
that the cam arms continue to turn, opening the
water plate fully, dumping the water in the tank. At
this point, the cam arm rotation will reverse and
close the water plate. The cam arm rotation will
stop when the water plate is fully closed and the
water fill process will repeat.
4. Move the ice-clean switch to the "ICE" position
and observe that the compressor and the
fan motor (air cooled only) begin to run. The
refrigeration system operation should be checked
and adjusted during the first few cycles.
5. Test the bin level control operation by holding
ice against the probe. The ice maker should
shut off the within 30 seconds of contact
between the ice and the probe tube.
6. All adjustments and Service should be
referred to a qualified technician who has the
proper Service Manual.
7. Make sure that the drain pan, ice deflectors and
stacking chute (stacked ice machines only) are
properly installed. Replace and secure all the
cabinet panels.
8. Discard all the ice from the start-up cycles, then
clean and sanitize the ice storage bin according
to the instructions provided with the bin.
