II. Installation and Operating Instructions WARNING • The icemaker must be installed in accordance with applicable national, state, and local codes and regulations. • Failure to install, operate, and maintain the icemaker in accordance with this manual will adversely affect safety, performance, component life, and warranty coverage and may result in costly water damage.
• NOTICE! Remote models must be connected to an appropriate remote condenser unit. The remote condenser units listed below are recommended. Connection to a different remote condenser unit will void the warranty unless Hoshizaki approves a different remote condenser unit for your specific application. For further details, contact your local Hoshizaki distributor.
2) Position the dispenser unit/ice storage bin in its permanent location. 3) If required, install an adapter kit or top kit. Contact your local Hoshizaki distributor for recommendations. 4) Level the dispenser unit/ice storage bin in both the left-to-right and front-to-rear directions.
2. Bin Control Installation 1) Remove the control box cover. Remove the 2 thumbscrews securing insulation panel (B), then remove insulation panel (B). See Fig. 3. 2) Disconnect the discharge hose from the pump motor, then disconnect the drain valve drain hose and the overflow drain hose. 3) Disconnect the pump motor connector from the back of the control box, then disconnect the float switch connector from the control board.

7b) Coca-Cola Freestyle Dispenser or Dispenser Unit with Thick Adapter Application: ® Remove the extension bracket and 2 thumbscrews from the accessory bag. Secure the bin control to the extension bracket using the 2 thumbscrews. See Fig. 6. Secure the extension bracket to the rear interior wall using the 2 thumbscrews on the rear interior wall.
E. Electrical Connection WARNING For All Models • Electrical connection must be hard-wired and must meet national, state, and local electrical code requirements. Failure to meet these code requirements could result in death, electric shock, serious injury, fire, or damage. •...
• External filters, strainers, or softeners may be required depending on water quality. Contact your local Hoshizaki Certified Service Representative or local Hoshizaki distributor for recommendations. • A plumbing permit and services of a licensed plumber may be required in some areas.

Charge Adjustment Discharge Discharge Icemaker Unit Line Line Adjustment Line Line (R-404A) KMD-530MRJZ URC-5FZ 1/4" 3/8" OD 3/8" 1/2" OD Add 16.5 oz. (468 g) Applicable to compensate for larger diameter line sizes, then add 0.4 oz. for each foot over 66' (40 g for each meter over 20 m).
5. Line Set Installation WARNING • R-404A itself is not flammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to 176°F (80°C). • R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to high temperatures (open flames), R-404A can be decomposed to form hydrofluoric acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.

4) Braze the liquid line copper tube to the straight copper tube and the straight copper tube to the icemaker liquid line service valve. NOTICE • Before brazing, remove the Schrader valve cores from the service valve access ports. • When brazing, protect the service valve by using a wet cloth to prevent the service valve from overheating.
b) Line Set Greater than 66' (20 m) Up to a Maximum of 100' (30.5 m) 1) Route the factory line set or appropriate size copper tubing. When field fabricating, insulate the copper tubes separately. Leave a service loop behind the icemaker to allow the icemaker to be pulled out for service.
Page 26
15) After evacuation, add the appropriate amount of additional R-404A. See "II.G.4 Line Set Size and Refrigerant Charge" for details. Hoshizaki Technical Support is available at 1-800-233-1940 for recommendations. 16) Close both gauge manifold valves. 17) Open the icemaker service valves first, then open the remote condenser unit service valves.
6. Electrical Connection WARNING • Electrical connection must meet national, state, and local electrical code requirements. Failure to meet these code requirements could result in death, electric shock, serious injury, fire, or damage. • To reduce the risk of electric shock, make all remote condenser unit connections before connecting the icemaker power supply.
3) Install a ground wire from the icemaker fan motor junction box to the remote condenser unit junction box. Use wire of an appropriate gage and outdoor rating. 4) Install line and neutral wires from the fan motor leads in the icemaker fan motor junction box to the leads in the remote condenser unit junction box.
H. Final Checklist 1. Pre-Startup 1) Is the icemaker level? 2) Is the icemaker in a site where the ambient temperature is within 45°F to 100°F (7°C to 38°C) and the water temperature within 45°F to 90°F (7°C to 32°C) all year around? 3) Air-Cooled Models: Is there at least 6"...
2. Post-Startup WARNING CHOKING HAZARD: Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews are securely in place after installation.
