ICE Series Installation Guidelines Installation Guidelines For proper operation of the ICE-O-Matic ice machine, the following installation guidelines must be followed. Failure to do so may result in loss of production capacity, premature part failures, and may void all warranties. Reference the installation parameters prior to installing the machine: Ambient Operating Temperatures Minimum Operating Temperature: 50°F (10°C) Maximum Operating Temperature 100°F (38°C), 110°F (43°C) on 50 Hz. Models.
ICE Series Installation Guidelines Secure the machine on top of the bin or dispenser. Attach the ice machine to the bin with the mounting straps provided with the bin or dispenser. If the ice machine is to be mounted on a bin or dispenser other than an ICE-O-Matic, refer to the manufactures instructions for machine mounting. If the ice machine is to be stacked on top of another ice machine, a stacking kit will need to be installed. Refer to the installation instructions included with the stacking kit.
ICE Series Remote Condenser Guidelines Remote Condenser Installation For proper operation of the ICE-O-Matic ice machine, the following installation guidelines must be followed. Failure to do so may result in loss of production capacity, premature part failure, and may void all warranties. Remote condensers must be installed per local building codes. A two to four inch diameter roof penetration will be needed for refrigerant lines and electrical conduit.
ICE Series Remote Condenser Guidelines The ICE0500R3, ICE0606R3, ICE806R3, ICE1006R3, ICE1606HR3 and ICE1506R2 Remote ice makers incorporate the mixing valve in the condenser. This configuration allows up to a 100 foot calculated remote line set run. Reference the diagram below to calculate the maximum 100 foot line set run.

ICE Series How the ICE Machine Works How the ICE Machine Works A general description of how the ICE Series cubers work is given below. With the ICE/OFF/WASH switch in the ICE position, the compressor, water pump and condenser fan motor (when applicable) will energize starting the freeze cycle. During the freeze cycle, water is circulated over the evaporator(s) where the ice cubes are formed.
ICE Series Start-Up Procedure Start-Up Procedure Before starting the machine, make sure the machine is level within 1/8 inch in all directions, the bin or dispenser leg height can be adjusted by rotating the leg foot. Check the water level in the water trough. It should be approximately ½ inch above the top of the water pump impeller housing. The water level can be adjusted by bending the float arm. Move the ICE-OFF-WASH switch to the ICE position. Check for proper water flow over the evaporator(s).
ICE Series Start-Up Procedure Bin Control Operation The bin control is used to shut the machine off when the bin fills with ice. The bin control must be checked upon installation or initial start-up and when performing maintenance. Adjustments are not covered under warranty. There is one bin switch for each evaporator. The actuator arm or of the bin switch comes in contact with the splash curtain. When the bin is full of ice, the splash curtain is held open when ice drops off of the evaporator.
ICE Series General Maintenance Electrical shock and/or injury from moving parts inside this machine can cause serious injury. Disconnect electrical supply to machine prior to performing any adjustments or repairs. Failure to perform the required maintenance at the frequency specified will void warranty coverage in the event of a related failure. To insure economical, trouble free operation of the machine, the following maintenance is required every 6 months.
ICE Series Cleaning Procedure Ice Machine Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions 1. Remove the ice machine front panel. 2. Make sure that all the ice is off of the evaporator. If ice is being made, wait for cycle completion, then turn the machine “OFF” at the ICE/OFF/WASH selector switch. 3. Remove or melt all ice in the storage bin. 4. Add recommended amount of approved nickel safe ice machine cleaner to the water trough according to label instructions on the container. 5.
ICE Series Cabinet Care Cleaning stainless steel Commercial grades of stainless steel are susceptible to rusting if not properly maintained. It is important that you properly care for the stainless steel surfaces of your ice machine and bin to avoid the possibility of rust or corrosion. Use the following recommended guidelines for keeping your stainless steel looking like new: 1. Clean the stainless steel thoroughly once a week. Clean frequently to avoid build-up of hard, stubborn stains.
ICE Series Winterizing Procedure Winterizing Procedures Important! Whenever the ice machine is taken out of operation during the winter months, the procedure below must be performed. Failure to do so may cause serious damage and will void all warranties. 1. Turn off water to machine. 2. Make sure all ice is off of the evaporator(s). If ice is being made, initiate harvest or wait for cycle completion. 3. Place the ICE/OFF/WASH switch to the “OFF” position. 4.
