GRAVITY DRAIN PUMP MODEL DRAIN INSTALLATION
1. Place the ice machine in front of the installation opening. Adjust leveling legs to the approximate height.
2. Insert drain tube through the routing hole in the back panel.
3. Remove the upper back panel if needed for access to drain connection.
Note: If you are connecting a gravity drain model and the drain opening has been located in the floor under the base
pan according to the pre install specifications, follow steps 3 through 5 to drain the unit through the base. If not,
proceed to step 6b.
4. Remove the clamp and barbed elbow and take off the plastic cover in the base pan below the drain hose.
5. Connect a straight 5/8” barbed connector to the drain hose, securing with the clamp removed in step 4.
6. Cut an 8” piece of 5/8” ID X 7/8” OD tygon (clear plastic) tubing. Slide one end of the tube onto the outlet of the
barbed connector and secure with a clamp. Leave the other end of the tube lying on the floor of the base pan until
the unit is positioned over the floor drain.
7. Route the drain tube. Either a) Insert the drain tube through the base pan into the floor drain or b) Route the drain
tube through the left hole in the lower back panel and connect to barbed elbow and secure with a clamp.
8. Reinstall any panels removed.

CAUTION
Restrictions in the drain system to the machine will cause water to back up into the ice storage bin and melt the ice. Gravity drain tubing
must be vented, have no kinks and slope to the building drain. Air gaps are typically required by local code.
