Other Maintenance

The auger in the ice making system is centered by
bearings at the top and bottom. It is also sealed from
leaking by a water seal at the bottom.
Bearing
The bearings are permanently lubricated and need
no maintenance. The can be visually checked for
obvious wear or damage but there is no need to add
lubrication.
Auger motor bearings and the gear reducer are also
permanently lubricated and need no maintenance.
The bottom of the ice making system should be
checked for water leaks. Water draining from
the bottom is an indication of a water seal leak.
Immediate repair is required when a water seal leak is
discovered.
Caution: Moving parts hazard. Do not touch the
rotating shaft at any time.
