C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Water The quality of the water supplied to the ice machine will have an impact on the time between cleanings and ultimately on the life of the product. There are two ways water can contain impurities: in suspension or in solution. Suspended solids can be filtered out. In solution or dissolved solids cannot be filtered, they must be diluted or treated. Water filters are recommended to remove suspended solids.

C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Uncrate and Set Up Begin with unpacking the ice storage bin. Remove the carton, and using part of the carton as a cushion, tip the bin on its back to remove the skid and attach the legs or casters. Bin Recycling Many times an ice machine head will be replaced, while the existing ice storage bin will be reused.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Plumbing Requirements All models require connection to cold, potable water. A hand actuated valve within site of the machine is required. Air cooled models have a single 3/8” FPT inlet water connection, a 3/8” FPT to 3/8” male flare adapter is supplied with the machine and can be used if desired. Water Filters If connecting to water filtration, filter only the water to the reservoir, not to the condenser.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Drains 3 Route the drain tubing to building drain. Follow All models require drain tubing to be attached to local codes for air gap. them. Air cooled models have a single ¾” FPT drain fitting in the back of the cabinet. Water cooled models have the same fitting plus an additional ½” Use rigid drain tubes and then route them FPT drain fitting in the back of the cabinet.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Electrical The machine is not supplied with a power cord, one must either be field installed or the machine hard-wired. The dataplate on the back of the cabinet details the power requirements, including voltage, phase, minimum circuit ampacity and maximum fuse size. HACR type circuit breakers may be used in place of fuses. Extension cords are not permitted. Use of a licensed electrician is recommended.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Final Check List After connections, 1 Wash out the bin. If desired, the interior of the bin could be sanitized. 2 Locate the ice scoop (if supplied) and have it available for use when needed.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Initial Start Up 1 Remove front panel. Check machine for any packing or wires rubbing moving parts. Note location of control board in upper left corner of the machine’s front. 2 Remove tape securing each curtain to its evaporator. 3 Switch on the electrical power to the machine.

C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Options and Other Information SmartBoard Ice When this option is present there is an additional display panel in the area below the main control board. It is not visible when the front panel is on. The SmartBoard’s features include: The cuber drops ice in large sections. That ice will break up into random parts as it falls into the bin, but some large sections may remain on top of the ice in the bin.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Cleaning, Sanitation and Maintenance This ice system requires three types of maintenance: • Remove the build up of mineral scale from the ice machine’s water system and sensors. • Sanitize the ice machine’s water system and the ice storage bin or dispenser. • Clean or replace the air filter and clean the air cooled condenser (air cooled models only). It is the User’s responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual 13 Remove water distributors from ice machine. Inspect each distributor for restricted orifice holes. Be sure all holes are full open. 17 Thoroughly wash all surfaces of the ice thickness sensor, water level sensor, curtain and water distributor with the sanitizer solution.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual Air cooled condenser filter 1 Pull air filters from their louvered mounts. Maintenance 2 Wash the dust and grease off the filter. Air cooled condenser 3 Return them to their original positions. If the machine has been operated without a filter the air cooled condenser fins will need to be cleaned. Do not operate the machine without the filter in place except during cleaning. Push and release the Off button. Wait until the machine stops.
C1448, C1848, C2148W Air and Water Cooled User Manual What to do before calling for service Reasons the machine might shut itself off: • • • • • Lack of water. Freeze cycle takes too long. Harvest cycle takes too long. High discharge temperature. Controller self test failure. Check the following: 1. Has the water supply to the ice machine or building been shut off? If yes, the ice machine will automatically restart within 25 minutes after water begins to flow to it. 2.
