PROGATE 2 CONTROL BOX OPERATION
Portion Control Box Functions
The portion control box on the PROGATE 2 has several functions including dispensing 4 programmed ice portions
for 4 cup sizes, programming and a manual dispense mode.
1. Main Power ON/OFF: Turns power to the entire machine off. Lights Orange when ON.
2. Agitator Push ON: Turns on agitator and opens ice gate allowing continuous dispense. This button will
turn green in the manual mode and will be off in PROGATE automatic. This button will also agitate in the
automatic mode but not dispense ice.
3. Mode Switch Manual/Progate: Turns on agitator and opens ice gate allowing unlimited ice portion.
4. Program Button: The programming button is used with cup size button enabling the user to enter the
portion programming mode to adjust the ice portions. The programming button is used with the directional
arrow buttons to adjust the agitation time.
5. Ice Portion Dispense Buttons: Used to dispense the appropriate ice portion. Can also be used in con-
junction with the program button to program a portion size.
6. Ice Size Program Bar: The program bar is only active in the program mode as a visual aid in setting the
