Inspection And Maintenance - Hoshizaki FM-150KE Instruction Manual

[c] Storage Bin Interior Cleaning/Sanitisation (Weekly)
1) Open the storage bin door, and remove all ice.
2) Slightly warp the slope to release it from the left and right shafts.
3) Remove the drain cap located in the base of the storage bin.
4) Wash the bin liner, slope and drain cap with a neutral non-abrasive cleaner.
Rinse thoroughly.
Note: Take care not to damage the bin control actuator at the top of the bin.
5) Either mix 5 litres of water with 18 ml of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution in a
suitable container, or the recommended Hoshizaki sanitiser as directed.
6) Soak a clean sponge or cloth with the solution, and wipe the bin liner surfaces, slope and drain cap.
7) Refit the slope and drain cap.
8) Wipe the surface of the bin door with the solution. Close the bin door.
9) The remaining solution can be used to sanitise utensils.
Note: Do not wipe dry or rinse after sanitising, but allow to air dry.
[d] Storage Bin Door
Clean the storage bin door at least once a week, using a neutral non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning and
sanitise as required.
[e] Air Filter
Plastic mesh air filters remove dirt or dust from the air, and keep the condenser from getting clogged. If the filters get clogged,
the icemaker's performance will be reduced. Remove and clean the air filter(s) at least twice per month:
1) Slide the air filter off the louver.
2) Clean the air filter by using a vacuum cleaner. When severely clogged, use
warm water and a neutral cleaner to wash the air filter.
3) Rinse and dry the air filter thoroughly.
After cleaning, be sure to place the air filter back in position.

2. INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

To achieve optimum icemaker performance, the following parts need periodic inspection and maintenance:
Extruding head (upper bearing)
Housing (lower bearing)
Mechanical seal
These parts should be inspected after two years from installation or 10,000 hours of operation, whichever comes first, and once
a year afterwards. Replacement of these parts is required if wear exceeds factory recommendations.
Their service life, however, depends on water quality and environment. More frequent inspection and maintenance are
recommended in bad or severe water conditions.
Consult with your local Hoshizaki service agent about inspection and maintenance service.
