CHANGING THE BIN DOOR AND LOWER PANEL
The storage bin door and lower panel are designed to
accept an optional decorative wood panel of your
choice.
The wood panel should be no more than VI inch (6 mm)
thick. Cut it to the same size as the production metal
panel. See Figure 1.
To change the bin door panel:
1. Open the bin door.
2. Remove the two screws on top of the door which hold
the handle.
3. Remove the handle.
4. Slide the metal panels out.
5. Break off the ribs on the door insulation to allow for
the wood thickness. See Figure 2.
6. Slide the wood panel into the door frame.
7. Replace handle and screws.
To change the lower panel:
1. Remove the two screws at the bottom that hold the
lower panel assembly to the ice maker.
2. Remove the two screws on the top of the panel
assembly.
3. Slide the metal panels and spacers out.

THERMOSTAT CALIBRATIONS
If ice maker is installed above two thousand feet of
altitude, the bin and evaporator thermostats must be
adjusted to a warmer setting. Disconnect electricity,
remove thermostat and follow the directions for turning
the altitude adjustment screw as shown in the label on
each thermostat.
SHIPBOARD OPERATION
When this ice cube maker is installed aboard a ship,
it will be necessary to purchase and install a water
deflector. This deflector hangs between the lower edge
of the evaporator and the cutter grid. It keeps the water
flowing over the evaporator from spilling into the storage
bin area. Order the necessary parts from your local ice
maker dealer.

Each installation is unique but will require:
1 A cold water inlet of 114” (6 mm) OD soft copper
tubing and a shut-off valve.
. LEVEL UMZT
1
After placing unit in position, check to make certain
the unit is level side to side and front to back.
2 Accurate leveling is essential for proper operation.
3 Unit should be shimmed so that it is solid as well
as level. The shims should be of hard permanen?
type material such as masonite.
4 Compliance with National Sanitation Foundation
standards require that this type of product be
sealed to the floor at the bottom rail in order to
prevent contamination from spills or the entrance of
vermin. Therefore, we recommend that when in-
stalling this product you seal it to the floor in accordance with those standards. A silicone-type sealer
is recommended.

(observe local codes)
1
Use l/4” (6 mm) OD soft copper tubing for the cold
water supply.
2 Provide a convenient manual shut-off valve in the
water line.
3 Position the t b’
u rng so it can enter the access hole
located in the right-hand rear of the cabinet. The
tubing should extend beyond the cabinet front
when the cabinet is pushed back into position. See
Figure 5.
NOTE:
Always purge the water line before making the final
connection to the inlet of the water valve to prevent
possible water valve malfunction.
After the cabinet is in place, bend the tubing to meet
the connection at the water valve. The garden hose
threaded compression fitting is found in the parts
bag. This joint provides a convenient disconnect for
service. Be sure the tubing is clear of compressor,
to prevent rattle.
. CONNECT THE DRAIN
1
When drain connection below the level of the unit
is not available a condensate pump may be used to
lift the water to an available drain.
2 Install condensate pump on floor behind ice maker
with discharge tube to the rear. Run drain bin directly
into pump as shown in Figure 5A.
3 Run power cord through hole into unit compartment.
(See Figure 5A)
4 Remove lower grille assembly. (See Figure 58)

GROUNDING METHOD
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE
THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUND PRONG.
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord
having a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible
shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating
3-prong grounding type wall receptacle, grounded in
accordance with all governing codes and ordinances.
If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the
personal responsibility and obligation of the customer
to have a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle
installed by a qualified electrician. See Figure 6.

NOTE: If this is done, you must connect the grounding
eyelet on the adapter to the wall receptacle cover plate

separate copper ground wire (No. 4 minimum) to a
grounded cold water pipe*. See Figure 7. Do not ground
to a gas supply pipe. Do not connect to electrical supply
until appliance is permanently grounded.
*Cold water pipe must have metal continuity to electrical
ground and not be interrupted by plastic, rubber or other
electrically insulating connectors (including water meter
or pump) without adding a jumper wire at these
connections.

THINGS TO REMEMBER
UNIT WIRING DIAGRAM
This model operates at
grid circuit which operates at 8.5 volts at 1 amp.
115
volts except for the cutter
0 Water enters only during the defrost cycle. Therefore
the first cycle will be completed without water in the
system.
0 As the room and water temperatures vary, so will the
amount of ice produced. This means that higher
operating temperatures will result in reduced ice
production.
0 The unit will shut off when ice in the storage bin
touches the bin thermostat well and will automatically cycle to keep the bin full.
0 The storage bin is not refrigerated and some
meltage will occur. This, too, varies with the room
temperature.
0 The unit needs good air circulation to perform effi-
ciently. Keep the front grill and the condenser clean.
0 The water system, including filter screen in the water
inlet solenoid valve, needs to be cleaned periodically
for good circulation. Instruction are located on the
inner door panel.
The compressor runs at all times except when the bin
thermostat becomes satisfied and opens up. This deenergizes the system except for the transformer, cutter
grid and bin light.
Under normal operating conditions, when the evaporator
reaches the preset temperature (+ loOF, -12.2OC to -3OF,
-19.4%, depending on thickness of ice) the evaporator
thermostat opens, terminating operation of the fan motor
and pump motor. The hot gas solenoid and the water
valve solenoid are energized at this time and remain so
until the evaporator reaches 380 + 2OF (3.30 + 1%).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
0 For complete operating information, refer to the Use
and Care Guide.
0 Before starting, wash out interior of cabinet with a
Baking Soda solution (2 tablespoons soda to a quart
of warm water). Rinse thoroughly.
0 Make certain the water is turned on.
0 Turn switch to the “ON” position.
IMPORTANT:
Allow unit to run for 3 hours before expecting ice
and for 24 hours before trying to set the thickness
control.
If installed above 2,000 feet altitude, see page 2 for
thermostat adjustments.

CHECK OPERATION
Start the unit by turning the service switch to
“ON” and opening the line water valve.
NOTE: Left is “OFF”-Middle is “ON”--Right is
“CLEAN.” In “CLEAN” position, only the pump
operates.
Check condenser fan to make sure it is revolving.
Water will not enter pump pan until freezing plate
gets cold and machine goes into a harvest cycle.
Check for even water flow over freezing plate. Unit
must be level for proper operation.
Check for desired cube thickness and after 24
hours adjust if necessary. Maximum ice yield
will be obtained with ice thickness at l/2” (12 mm)
to 518” (16 mm).
Replace grill.
