2 Because the heat of rejection varies during the ice making cycle, the
figure shown is an average.
Ice machines, like other refrigeration equipment, reject heat
through the condenser. It is helpful to know the amount of
heat rejected by the ice machine when sizing air
conditioning equipment where self-contained air-cooled ice
machines are installed.
This information is also necessary when evaluating the
benefits of using water-cooled or remote condensers to
reduce air conditioning loads. The amount of heat added to
an air conditioned environment by an ice machine using a
water-cooled or remote condenser is negligible.
Knowing the amount of heat rejected is also important
when sizing a cooling tower for a water-cooled condenser.
Use the peak figure for sizing the cooling tower.

Removing Drain Plug and Leveling the Ice
Storage Bin
!
To avoid instability, the bin/dispenser must be installed
in an area capable of supporting the weight of the bin/
dispenser, ice machine and a full bin of ice (48" models
1000 lbs [454 kg], 30" models 750 lbs [340 kg]). The bin/
dispenser must be level side-to-side and front-to-back
before installing the ice machine.
1. Remove threaded plug from drain fitting.
2. Screw the leveling legs onto the bottom of the bin.
3. Screw the foot of each leg in as far as possible.
! Caution
The legs must be screwed in tightly to prevent them
from bending.
4. Move the bin into its final position.
5. Level the bin to assure that the bin door closes and seals
and the ice machine operates properly. Use a level on
top of the bin. Turn the base of each foot as necessary
to level the bin.
6. Inspect bin gasket prior to ice machine installation. (Our
bins come with a closed cell foam gasket installed along
the top surface of the bin.)
7. Remove all panels from ice machine before lifting and
installing on bin. Remove front panel, top cover, left and
right side panels.

Air Baffle

Self-Contained Air-Cooled Only
The air-cooled baffle prevents condenser air from
recirculating. To install:
1. Loosen the back panel screws next to the condenser.
2. Align the keyhole slots in the air baffle with the screw
holes and slide the baffle down to lock in place.
