After uncrating and removing all packing material, inspect the equipment for concealed shipping damage. If damage is found, notify the shipper immediately and contact Follett Corporation so that we can help in the fi ling of a claim, if necessary.
Installation Before you begin All dispensers must be installed level in both directions to ensure proper operation. Service and ventilation clearances: 6" (153 mm) on right side of dispenser, 6" (153 mm) at top for ventilation and 12" (305 mm) at top recommended for service. Countertop units installed without legs provide the option of taking utilities out bottom or back of dispenser (on wall mount units and countertop units with legs, utilities exit from back).

Installing wall mount dispensers Notes: No drain pan is provided since the dispenser is intended to be installed above a sink. (Contact Follett if a drain pan is desired.) SensorSAFE infrared dispensing is standard. (Contact Follett if lever actuation is desired. A deeper cabinet will be needed.)

User information How the dispenser works Follett’s 12 series automatic-load ice and water dispensers are equipped with Follett’s 400 lb (181kg)/day icemaker. In the continuous icemaking process, water freezes to the inside wall of the evaporator. A rotating stainless steel auger carries the ice to the top of the evaporator where it is compressed and extruded through an outlet port.
Cleaning of the condenser can usually be performed by facility personnel. Cleaning of the icemaker system in most cases should be performed by your facility’s maintenance staff or a Follett authorized service agent. Regardless of who performs the cleaning, it is the operator’s responsibility to see that this cleaning is performed according to the schedule below.
™ 6. Following manufacturer’s instructions, prepare one gallon (3.8L) of Follett SafeCLEAN environmentally friendly icemaker cleaner (one 7 oz packet) or equivalent. Solution temperature must be at least 120 F (48.9 C). WARNING: Most ice machine cleaners contain citric or phosphoric acid that can cause skin irritation. Read caution label on product and follow instructions carefully.
The icemaking process The Follett icemaker uses a stainless steel jacketed evaporator and operates on a continuous freezing cycle. Water is supplied to the evaporator from the water reservoir where the water level is controlled by a fl oat valve. This valve also shuts off the water supply when the icemaker is not running.

Icemaker operational and diagnostic sequences The wiring diagrams that follow illustrate the circuitry of Follett icemakers used with 12 series ice dispensers. Both normal operation (stages 1 - 6) and non-normal diagnostic sequences showing torque-out (stages 7 - 10) for use in troubleshooting are shown.
Page 17
Normal operation – Stage 2 The water sensor verifi es water in the fl oat reservoir. The water OK LED (WTR) comes on. At the same time, the gearmotor, compressor and condenser fan motor come on, lighting the drive LED (DR) and compressor LED (C). The high initial current draw of the compressor run winding closes the contacts of the current relay energizing the start winding through the run capacitor.
Page 18
Normal operation – Stage 4 Once the ice level control opens, the B-E LED goes out. After a 10 second delay the compressor LED (C), compressor and fan motor go off. (Should the ice level control not remain open for 10 seconds, the icemaker will continue to run.) The gearmotor continues to run and the DR LED remains lighted for 60 seconds.
Page 19
Normal operation – Stage 6 When the dwell time of 20 minutes has expired, the B-T LED goes off. The icemaker goes through the normal start-up sequence when the bin level control signals the control board for ice. The WTR LED will remain on as long as the water sensor in the fl oat reservoir senses water.
Page 20
Diagnostic sequence – Stage 8 If the restart is successful the 20M LED goes off, the 60 minute timer LED (60M) comes on. The 60M LED remains on for 60 minutes from restart. A lighted 60M LED indicates that the icemaker has experienced an over-torque condition.
Diagnostic sequence – Stage 10 If the water level in the fl oat reservoir drops to an unacceptable level, the WTR LED goes out, shutting the icemaker off. Also, the BT LED comes on, preventing the icemaker from restarting for twenty minutes. If water is restored, the WTR LED comes back on and fl ashes to alert the technician that water to icemaker has been lost.
Refrigerant replacement requirements 1. Non-contaminated refrigerant removed from any Follett refrigeration system can be recycled and returned to the same system after completing repairs. Recycled refrigerant must be stored in a clean, approved storage container. If additional refrigerant is required, virgin or reclaimed refrigerant that meets ARI standard 700-88 must be used.
Ice capacity test Icemaker production capacity can only be determined by weighing ice produced in a specifi c time period. 1. Remove top panel and hopper lid of unit. 2. Weigh and record weight of container used to catch ice. 3.
