Preface

The HI-18, HI-24 Econo Icer is designed for
icing donuts and a variety of baking products
quickly and easily.

It is meant to be used on a flat, stationary
surface, with the operator standing on handled
side. The operator must work safely at all times
and read this manual and follow its instructions
and warnings.

The HI-18, HI-24 Econo Icer uses electrical
elements to heat frosting in its kettle. The
machine is available with the following electrical
configurations:

• 220 volts, 1 phase, 50 hertz

• 240 volts, 1 phase, 50 hertz

The HI-18, HI-24 Econo Icer produces less than
70 dB(A) of equivalent continuous A-weighted
sound pressure at work stations. This has been
determined during a run of the machine with
shortening in the kettle, using a Bruel & Kjaer
sound level meter, type 2236.

To use the HI-18, HI-24 Econo Icer safely, heed
the following warnings:

• Disconnect for power source, before

cleaning or repairing.

• Never touch the icing pan once the

machine is on. The pan gets very hot,
which may cause serious burns.

cool before attempting any adjustment,
repair, disassembly, or cleaning.

• To avoid electrocution or other injury,

unplug the machine before attempting
any adjustment, repair, disassembly, or
cleaning.

• To avoid damaging the machine, never

use force to assemble, disassemble,
operate, clean, or maintain it.

• Be careful never to get icing, water, or

other materials on the floor. If anything
does get spilled on the floor, mop it up
immediately. Materials on the floor can
cause people to slip or fall, resulting in
serious injury or loss of life.

• To prevent unintentional startup and

possible fire, unplug the machine if there
is a local power outage. When the
power is restored, it is safe to plug the
machine in again.

• To avoid electrocution, make sure that

all electrical cords are not frayed or
cracked and that they do not pass
through any water or icing.

• Make sure that all electrical cords are

routed so that no one will trip over them.

• Do not overfill the icing pan with icing.

If shortening overflows the icing pan, it
could cause serious burns or could cause
someone to slip on the floor and be
seriously injured.

• Hot icing can cause serious burns. Make

sure that the system and the icing are

Wire Tensioning and
Replacement.

Tools Required:

(2) 5/16” Open End Wrench

NOTE:

Do not use a box wrench to tighten. This

will cause too much torque and frame may

bend and bow

1. Place looped end of wire over the “Wire
Retainer Pin” (HI18-0004) placing it in the
groove.

2. Thread other end of wire through the hole in
the “Wire Adjusting Pin” (HI24-0020) and
bend the end pointing up as shown.

3. With the 5/16” open-end wrench, loosen the

#10-32X1” machine screw.

4. With the 5/16” open-end wrench, turn the

“Wiring Adjusting Pin” to tighten the wire.
Be sure the wire winds in the groove of the
pin. (This will also tighten the loop around
the “Wire Retainer Pin”).

5. Tighten the wire until taut, removing all

slack. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN!

OVER TIGHTENING WILL CAUSE
THE FRAME TO BEND AND BOW.

6. Tighten the #10-32 machine screw to hold
