Page 19: Operation
FM1200R OPERATION: Water Water enters the machine through the 3/8" male flare at the rear of the cabinet, goes to the water reservoir which it enters through the float valve. The water them goes out the bottom of the reservoir tank to the bottom of the evaporator. - Page 20 FM1200R OPERATION: Refrigeration Beginning at the compressor, the refrigerant 502 is compressed into a high temperature gas. The discharge line directs this gas to the condenser. At the remote condenser the gas is cooled by air and it then condenses into a liquid.

Page 26: Service Diagnosis
FM1200R SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Condition - No Ice Being Produced A. Check: Voltage to the unit, restore it if there is none. Compare to the nameplate. B. Check: The master switch, switch ON if off. C. Check: The 2 reset switches (circuit board and high pressure): depress and release each switch. - Page 27 If the bin empty light is still OFF, check the circuit board. 1. Unplug "opto trans" and "LED" connectors from the circuit board. 2. Plug "opto trans" and "LED" connectors from the Scotsman Electronic Control Testor Model NM1 into the circiut board (see page 35).
- Page 28 FM1200R SERVICE DIAGNOSIS: Condition - No Ice Being Produced STATUS: GEARMOTOR OPERATES, COMPRESSOR DOES NOT A. Check the pump down control switch. 1. This pressure switch opens at 6-10 psig, and closes at 16-20 psig. If open check the low side pressure, if after running the machine the switch opens at a pressure higher than 10 psig, replace the switch.
