Operating the ice machine outside of the above
limitations, or outdoors, is potentially damaging to
the machine, and it is misuse of the machine. This
may void the warranty.
Ice-O-Matic ice machines are designed and
manufactured with the highest regard for safety
and performance. They meet or exceed the
standards of agencies like NSF and UL.
Ice-O-Matic assumes no liability or responsibility of
any kind for products manufactured by Ice-O-Matic
that have been altered in any way, including the
use of any part and/or other components not
specifically approved by Ice-O-Matic.

UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
1. Call your authorized Ice-O-Matic Distributor or
Dealer for proper installation.
2. Remove the front panel of the unit and inspect
for any concealed damage. Notify carrier of your
claim for the concealed damage.
3. Check that refrigerant lines do not rub against or
touch other lines or surfaces, and that the fan
blade moves freely.
4. Check that the compressor fits snugly onto all its
mounting pads.
5. Remove all internal support packing and
masking tape.

General Information And Installation
This model is supplied from the factory completely
pre-wired and requires only electrical power
connections to the wire cord provided at rear of the
unit.
Make sure that the ice machine is connected to its
own circuit and individually fused (see data plate
for maximum fuse size). This is a cord-connected
unit designed for 115 volt AC power, with a
maximum fuse size of 15 amps.
Low voltage can cause improper operation and
may be responsible for serious damage to the
overload switch and motor windings that is not
covered by warranty.
NOTE. All external wiring should conform to
national, state and local standards and regulations.
Check voltage on the line and the ice maker’s data
plate before connecting the unit. Extension cords
must not be used.
Location: If the unit is built into a cabinet with no
side ventilation, the ice production will be reduced
by 20% of rated capacity, restricted space of an
inch or so on each side will cause a 10%
reduction. Six inches of space to the left and right
will allow the unit to operate satisfactorily.
To keep your Ice-O-Matic ice machine at peak
performance levels, periodic maintenance checks
must be carried out as indicated on the
Maintenance and Cleaning section of this manual.
Warranty
The warranty statement for this product is on page
18 of this manual. Refer to it for applicable
coverage. In general warranty covers defects in
material or workmanship. It does not cover
maintenance, corrections to installations, or
situations when the machine is operated in
circumstances that exceed the limitations printed in
this manual.
The daily ice-making capacity is directly related to
the condenser air inlet temperature, water
temperature, conditions of the condenser air filter
and age of the machine.

Water Supply And Drain Connections
ICEU070A
General
When choosing the water supply for the ice cuber
consideration should be given to:
a) Length of run
b) Water clarity and purity
c) Adequate water supply pressure
Low water pressure, below 20 psi may cause a
malfunction.
Water containing excessive minerals will tend to
produce cloudy colored ice cubes, plus scale
build-up on parts of the water system.
Water Supply
The recommended water supply line is a 3/8" o.d.
copper tube, the water pressure must have a
minimum incoming pressure of 20 psig.
Connect the tubing to the 3/4" GAS / BSPP thread
water inlet fitting at the back of the ice maker. An
adapter is available, the part numbers are: Water
Inlet Adapter-1011411-64 and Water Inlet Adapter
O-Ring-1011411-65.
Water Drain
The recommended drain tube is a plastic or flexible
tube with 18 mm (3/4") I.D. which runs to an open
trapped and vented drain.
Note: Although soft, easily kinked vinyl tubing is
not recommended for a drain, a short length of ¾”
ID vinyl tubing is required to connect a rigid drain
tube to the 20 mm (25/32”) fitting on the back of
the machine.
NOTE. The water supply and the water drain must
be installed to conform to the local code. In some
case a licensed plumber and/or a plumbing permit
is required.

Final Check List
1. Is the unit in a room where ambient
temperatures are above a minimum of 10oC (50
even in winter months?
2. Is there at least a 15 cm (6") clearance around
the unit for proper air circulation?
3. Is the unit level? (IMPORTANT)
4. Have all the electrical and plumbing connections
been made, and is the water supply shut-off valve
open?
5. Has the voltage been tested and checked
against the data plate rating?
6. Has the water supply pressure been checked to
ensure a water pressure of at least 20 psi.
7. Check all refrigerant lines and conduit lines to
guard against vibrations and possible failure.
o
F)
8. Have the bolts holding the compressor down
been checked to ensure that the compressor is
snugly fitted onto the mounting pads?
9. Have the bin liner and cabinet been wiped
clean?
10. Has the owner/user been given the User
Manual and been instructed on the importance of
periodic maintenance checks?
11. Has the Manufacturer’s registration card been
filled in properly? Check for correct model and
serial number against the serial plate and mail the
registration card to the factory.
12. Has the owner been given the name and the
phone number of the authorized Ice-O-matic
Service Agency serving him?
Connect Power, Water and Drain. Level the cabinet.
