Water Pump: Continuously circulates the water from the water tank, through the water plate during the ice making cycle. The water pump also operates during the wash cycle to circulate cleaning and sanitizing solution. Actuator Motor: Rotates the cam arms counter-clockwise, at the beginning of the ice harvest cycle, to lower the water plate, so the ice can fall out of the evaporator.
Page 21
Evaporator Temperature Probe: Senses the temperature of the evaporator. During the defrost cycle, the evaporator must warm sufficiently to release the ice. This probe signals the controller to terminate the defrost cycle, after the ice has fallen out of the evaporator, and start the next ice making cycle.

Test Procedure for a Short Circuit to Ground (Ground Fault) 1. Disconnect all electrical power to the system, making sure all power legs are open. 2. Remove the protective terminal cover. Inspect for evidence of overheating at any connection. Overheating is an indication that a compressor motor problem exists. Disconnect all leads from the terminal pins.
Test Procedure for Compressor Electrical Components 1. Testing The Potential Relay: 2. Before testing the relay, be sure it is the one specified for use with the ice machine compressor and the mounting position of the relay is correct. 3. Measure for continuity between terminals 5 and 2—if there is no continuity, replace the relay. 4.
Additional Service Information • Testing the External Thermal Protector: • After allowing sufficient time for the thermal protector to reset, disconnect it and test for continuity across the terminals. If there is no continuity, replace the thermal protector. • Disconnect and test the compressor wiring by confirming that there is continuity between relay terminal 5 and compressor terminal C and also between terminals 2 and S as well as 4 and R.
WATER PLATE REPLACEMENT 1. Turn off water and open plate until cams are in the 9:00 position then turn off the power. 2. Remove the control stream drain hose. 3. Remove water level probe assembly by sliding it to the right beyond the control stream box and lift.

(2-wire plus ground) 4 = 208/230 volt-60 hz.-1ph. (2-wire plus ground) 7 = 220/240 volt-50 hz.-1ph.
Unpacking Unpacking a KOLD-DRAFT machine can be done by prying off the boards that are holding the cardboard box to the shipping pallet. The box can then be lifted vertically to expose the machine. Remove all packaging materials from the ice machine and protective film from the stainless steel surfaces.
• The ice machine must be installed indoors and the location should be free of airborne contaminates including any corrosive elements. • Ambient air temperatures at the install location must be between 45°F (7°C) and 90°F (32°C).Ambient temperatures higher than the maximum specification will result in reduced capacities and high system pressures in air-cooled models.
• Individual drains will not be directly connected to a common manifold, drain or standpipe. If individual drains are to be discharged into a common manifold, drain or standpipe, a minimum 1.5” (38mm) air gap must be provided at each connection. This is to prevent any backflow of drain water into the ice maker or ice bin.
• All KOLD-DRAFT models are intended to be installed with a permanent connection to the field electrical supply. See rating plate on the back of the machine for power supply requirements. • Each ice maker must be connected to a separate protected circuit with no other loads.
14. Also, observe that the water pump is circulating water through the system. A momentary sucking, cavitation sound is normal at the beginning of the process when the water level is low. Check that there are no water leaks from the hoses or water tank into the bin. 15.
Evaporator Probe: Provides evaporator temperature information to the control board to begin and end the defrost cycle. Adjust the left potentiometer on the control board to determine ice cube fullness. Turn CW to extend the freeze time and CCW to shorten it. NOTE: Ice cubes should never be frozen completely full.
Raise: The water solenoid valve will be energized, as the water plate closes, to begin filling the sump for the next ice-making cycle. When fully closed, the water plate will stop and the water pump will be energized. The evaporator cools and begins to remove heat from the water to make the next batch of ice.
Ice-Clean Switch to the “Clean” position and turn the ice machine on. 2. While the water plate is filling pour 3 fl. oz. (90 ML) of Kold-Draft nickel-safe ice machine cleaner (Kold-Draft part no. 500023) into the water sump though the opening along its front edge.
If there is ice on the surface of the water plate, preventing it from closing, the controller will reopen the plate to clear it. Storage and Winterization Clean and sanitize the ice machine. Disconnect the electric power supply. Disconnect water and drain lines. Remove and empty the water sump.
