Thoroughly inspect the unit upon delivery. Immediately report any damage that occurred during transportation to the
delivery carrier. Request a written inspection report from a claims inspector to document any necessary claim.
Servend dispensers are designed to dispense hard, cube ice up to one-inch square. The ice shapes and sizes listed
below are recommended for dispensing. Warm "Super Cooled" Ice Before Dispensing "Super Cooled" ice is not
recommended for dispensing. "Super cooled" ice is ice that has been stored in freezers below 32
necessary to temporarily use "super cooled" ice, allow the ice to warm at room temperature for 25 to 30 minutes before
placing the ice in the dispenser.
Dispensing compressed flake "nugget" ice in Servend dispensers takes special handling. Most dispensers require
special bin components plus a universal ice management kit. Contact MBE regarding details for your particular
installation.
A cold plate is a block of aluminum with serpentine stain-
less steel tubes molded inside the aluminum block. The
cold plate is approximately the same length and width
as the bottom of the dispenser bin. Ice sits on top of the
cold plate and cools the cold plate. The stainless steel
tubes inside the cold plate carry carbonated water (soda
water), noncarbonated water (plain water) and syrup to
the beverage valves. While flowing through the stainless
steel tubes in the cold plate, water and syrup are chilled
to serving temperature.
Post-mix beverage valves are designed to precisely meter the flow of both water and syrup to obtain the proper mixing
ratio. The syrup and soda water components of the post-mix beverage are mixed as they leave the beverage valve.

As the customer presses the rocking chute, the arm at
the top left rear of the chute pushes upward on the door
lock. The door opens until it contacts the stops in the
mounting brackets. The plastic arm on the ice chute also
activates the lever of the ice dispensing switch. When ac-
tivated, the micro switch starts the gear motor. The gear
motor turns the paddle wheel and agitator arm. The paddle
wheel carries ice. Periodic agitation is optional on the MD-
150 and MD-175 and is standard on the MD-200, MD-250,
MD-302 and MD-402. During periodic agitation, the paddle
wheel and agitator turn for approximately three seconds
every three and one half-hours. The door lock prevents ice
from being dispensed during the agitation cycle.
