    1. INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a ‘ECO’ Ice Cube Maker. You have purchased one of the most reliable ice- making products on the market today. Carefully read the instructions contained in this manual since they provide important information relative to safety during installation, use, and maintenance.
  • Page 5 manufacturer shall be held harmless in case of damages arising due to the lack of the ground installation. To see “Installation” chapter (7). In order to assure the proper operation and efficiency of this equipment, it is extremely important to follow the recommendations of the manufacturer, especially those related to cleaning and maintenance operations, which should be performed by qualified personnel only.
  • Page 6: Reception Of The Machine

    1.2.-RECEPTION OF THE MACHINE Inspect the outside packing. In case of damages, make the corresponding claim to the carrier. To confirm the existence of damages, unpack the machine in the presence of the carrier and state any damage on the equipment on the reception document or freight document. Always state the machine number and model.
  • Page 7: Installation

    2. INSTALLATION 2.1.- PLACING OF THE ICE MAKER This ice maker is not designed for outdoor operation. The icemaker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other high heat producing equipment. The ECO machines are designed to operate at room temperature between 10ºC and 43ºC. There may be some difficulties in ice cube removal under the minimum temperatures.
  • Page 8: Levelling Of The Ice Maker

    2.2.-LEVELLING OF THE ICE MAKER Use a level on top of ice machine in order to ensure the equipment is perfectly leveled. Screw the leveling legs onto the bottom of the ice machine as far as possible. Move the machine into its final position. Use a level on top of the ice machine.
  • Page 9: Water Supply Connection

    CONNECTION DIAGRAM: The location must allow enough clearance for water drain and electrical connections in the rear of the ice machine 2.5.- WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION The quality of the water supplied to the ice machine will have an impact on the time between cleanings and ultimately on the life of the product (mainly in water cooled units).
  • Page 10: Drain Force Connection

    Correct Incorrect Incorrect 2.6.2.- DRAIN FORCE CONNECTION This version of drain force allows an installation of the machine where the drain can be located 30 meters horizontally and 1.5 meters high from the machine's water outlet. If the drain pipe runs incorrectly, the pump may not be able to drain the water, because the flow of the pump may be influenced due to the existence of stored air within the circuit.
  • Page 11: Electrical Connection

    2.5.- ELECTRICAL CONNECTION It is mandatory to ground the equipment. To avoid possible electric shock on individuals or damages to the equipment, the machine should be grounded pursuant local and/or national regulations as the case may be. The manufacturer shall be held harmless in case of damages arising due to the lack of the ground installation.

    MINIMUM 10ºC 10ºC e) Is water pressure appropriate? MINIMUM 0.1MPa (1 bar) MAXIMUM bar) In case inlet water pressure is higher than 0.6 MPa, install a pressure regulator. 3.2.- START-UP Once the installation instructions are followed (ventilation, site conditions, temperatures, water quality, etc.), proceed as follows: 1.- Open the water inlet.
  • Page 13: Sequence Of Operation

    4. SEQUENCE OF OPERATION Once you connect the machine there is a time delay of 140” during which the water valve is activated to ensure the water tray is filled. Compressor, pump will be off. Once the time is up, it continues with a harvest cycle and the compressor starts. After the harvest, the ice production starts, so the pump starts working.

    4.2.1 SAFETY HIGH PRESSURE SWITCH When the pressure contact (P) trips, instantly, all outputs switch over to off position. When it is closed again, there are two possibilities: - Dip-switch 10 OFF. Manual reset. The machine remains stopped until reset to Initial start-up. - Dip-switch 10 ON.

    4.4 DRAIN FORCE 4.4.1 SEQUENCE OF OPERATION While the machine is turn on, there is water that need to be evacuated between each cycle. There are 2 possible outlet water, one is if the ice in the storage bin melts (#1) and the other is when the production time ends, the water electrovalve opens and fills the water tray(#2) to renovate the water.

  • Page 21: Maintenance And Cleaning Procedures

    6 MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING PROCEDURES It is the User’s responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition. Ice machines also require occasional cleaning of their water systems with a specifically designed chemical. This chemical dissolves mineral build up that forms during the ice making process. Sanitize the ice storage bin as frequently as local health codes require, and every time the ice machine is cleaned and sanitized.
  • Page 22 g) Disconnect power. h) Mix enough cleaning solution to clean parts and interior food zone surfaces. i) Clean all surfaces of the curtain (#3 point c) with the cleaner solution using a brush (not a wire brush) or cloth. Rinse all areas with water. See point 6.2. j) Clean all the interior surfaces of the freezing compartment (including storage bin) with the cleaner solution using a brush or cloth.
  • Page 23: Cleaning Water Distributor And Injectors

    6.2.- CLEANING WATER DISTRIBUTOR AND INJECTORS 1) Remove the curtain (#1). (Take advantage to clean it with Calklin or some non-aggressive product, rinse, clean with bleach and rinse under the tap). 2) Remove the ice fall grill (#2). (Clean it just like the curtain). 3) PULL UP THE COLLECTOR (#4) (IT IS PRESSURE MOUNTED) 4) Remove the injectors (#3) and the manifold covers, clean them.
  • Page 24: Cleaning The Bins

    6.3.- CLEANING THE BINS 1) Disconnect the machine, close water faucet and empty storage bin of ice 2) Use the cleaner/water solution to clean all surfaces of the bin. Use a nylon brush or cloth. Then rinse all areas thoroughly with clean water. 3) Use the sanitizer/water solution to sanitize all surfaces of the bin.
  • Page 25: External Cleaning Of The Machine

    6.5.- EXTERNAL CLEANING OF THE MACHINE Clean the area around the ice machine as often as necessary to maintain cleanliness. Sponge any dust and dirt off the outside of the ice machine with mild soap and water. Wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
