3. SEQUENCE OF ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT [a] When Power Switch is moved to “ON” position and Flush Switch to “ICE” position, water starts to be supplied to Reservoir.
Page 29
[b] When Reservoir has been filled, Gear Motor starts immediately.
Page 30
[c] Compressor starts [F-2000MLH/-C only, two solenoid valves open] about 60 sec. after Gear Motor starts.
Page 31
[d] Bin Control operates, and about 6 sec. later, Compressor and Gear Motor stop simultaneously. (F-2000MLH/-C, two solenoid valves close.)
Page 32
[e] Low Water (Except Water-cooled Model where Compressor will operate intermittently)
Page 33
[f] When Flush Timer operates (for 15 min. every 12 hours) or when Flush Switch is moved to “FLUSH” position, Flush Water Valve opens and flushes Reservoir and Evaporator.
Page 34
[g] For single-phase machines, when 208-230V are supplied to Circuit Protect Relay, it protects the circuit from being miswired. If the power supply is properly connected, the contact of Circuit Protect Relay does not move even when the coil is energized.
Page 35
[h] When Pressure Switch opens, power supply to the control board is cut off causing the Compressor and Gear Motor to turn off immediately.

IV. ADJUSTMENT OF COMPONENTS 1. ADJUSTMENT OF WATER REGULATING VALVE - WATER-COOLED MODEL ONLY The Water Regulating Valve or also called “WATER REGULATOR” is factory-adjusted. No adjustment is required under normal use. Adjust the Water Regulator , if necessary, using the following procedures.
2. ADJUSTMENT OF FLAKE SIZE To adjust the flake size, change the number of the Cutter Heads on the top of the Auger, according to the following procedures: 1) Remove the Bolt. 2) Take off the upper Cutter Head of the two (coarse flakes) or set the upper Cutter Head on the lower (fine flakes).
1) Remove the Cap from the E.P.R. Access Valve, and connect a pressure gauge (The E.P.R. needs no adjustment if the pressure gauge shows 22 PSIG for F-2000MLH/-C.) 2) Remove the Cover from the E.P.R., and rotate the Adjustment Screw by a hexagon wrench until the pressure gauge shows 22 PSIG (F-2000MLH/-C).

The refrigerant charge on the F-2000MLH/-C is provided from the external Compressor Rack Assembly. In the event that service is required on the F-2000MLH/-C, close the Suction and Liquid Line Shut-off Valves located at the rear of the unit. Attach the Service Manifold Hoses to the high side, low side and Evaporator Pressure Regulator (E.P.R.) access ports...
Page 58
5) Disconnect the Vacuum Pump, and attach a Refrigerant Service Cylinder to the High- side line. Remember to loosen the connection, and purge the air from the Hose. See the Nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. Hoshizaki recommends only virgin refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which meets ARI Standard No. 700-88 be used.
2. BRAZING 1. Refrigerant R-404A itself is not flammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to 176° F. 2. Refrigerant R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to high temperatures (open flames) R-404A can be decom- posed to form hydrofluoric acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.
3. REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF COMPRESSOR - EXCEPT F-2000MLH/-C Always install a new Drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the Drier until after all other repair or replacements have been made. 1) Turn off the power supply, and remove the panels.
16) Replace the panels in their correct position, and turn on the power supply. 4. REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF DRIER - EXCEPT F-2000MLH/-C Always install a new Drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the Drier until after all other repair or replacements have been made.
7) Install the new Drier [except F-2000MLH/-C]. 8) Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG) and soap bubbles. 9) Evacuate the system. Charge it with refrigerant [except F-2000MLH/-C]. For the water- cooled models, see the Nameplate for the required refrigerant charge and type. For the remote air-cooled models, see the label on the Control Box.
13) Replace the panels in their correct position, and turn on the power supply. 6. REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF WATER REGULATING VALVE - WATER-COOLED MODELS ONLY. Always install a new Drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the Drier until after all other repair or replacements have been made.
7. REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF CONDENSING PRESSURE REGULATOR (C.P.R.) - REMOTE AIR-COOLED MODELS ONLY Always install a new Drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the Drier until after all other repairs or replacements have been made. 1) Turn off the power supply.
8. REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF EVAPORATOR ASSEMBLY 1) Turn off the power supply. For F-2000MLH/-C, close the Shut-off Valves to the Compres- sor Rack Assembly. 2) Remove the panels. 3) Move the Flush Switch to the “FLUSH” position. 4) Turn on the power supply and drain out all water from the water line.
Page 66
Always install a new Drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened. Do not replace the Drier until after all other repair or replace- ments have been made. 14) Remove the Bulb of the Expansion Valve. 15) Disconnect the brazing-connections of the Expansion Valve and the Copper Tube- Low Side from the Evaporator, using brazing equipment.
Page 67
(b) Replace the Drier [except F-2000MLH/-C] (c) Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG) and soap bubbles. (d) Evacuate the system. Charge it with refrigerant [except F-2000MLH/-C].

11) Connect the new Solenoid leads. 12) Attach the Solenoid to the valve body, and secure it with a screw. 13) Replace the panels in their correct position. 14) Turn on the power supply.
VII. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS Ensure all components, fasteners and thumbscrews are securely in place after any maintenance or cleaning is done to the equipment. 1. PREPARING THE ICEMAKER FOR LONG STORAGE When shutting off the icemaker for an extended time, drain out all water from the water line and remove the ice from the Storage Bin.
Ensure all components, fasteners and thumbscrews are securely in place after any maintenance or cleaning is done to the equipment. 1. HOSHIZAKI recommends cleaning this unit at least once a year. More fre- quent cleaning, however, may be required in some existing water conditions.
Page 77
For safety and maximum effectiveness, use the solution immediately after dilution. <STEP 2> Use the cleaning solution to remove lime deposits in the water system. 1) Turn off the power supply. 2) Close the Water Supply Line Shut-off Valve. 3) Remove all ice from the Storage Bin. 4) Remove the Front Panel and the Top Panel.
Page 78
Use 3/4 gal. of the sanitizing solution to sanitize the icemaker. 1) Close the Water Supply Line Shut-off Valve. 2) Remove the Control Water Valve by releasing the Fitting Nut. 3) Remove the Cover of the Reservoir. 4) Fill the Reservoir with the sanitizing solution. 5) Replace the Cover of the Reservoir and the Control Water Valve in their correct positions.
Page 79
3) Remove the Gasket at the bottom of the Ice Chute and another at the Spout. 4) Remove the three Ties and the Insulation of the Chute. 5) Remove the six Wing Nuts and two Baffles. When installing the Baffles, make sure that the bent surface (the one without the studs) faces the Activator so that the bent surface can guide the ice to the center of the Activator.
More frequent inspection and maintenance are recommended. Consult with your local distributor about inspection and maintenance service. To obtain the name and phone number of your local distributor, call Hoshizaki Technical Support at 1-800-233-1940 in the USA. IMPORTANT...
