SAFE OPERATION MODE
Allows the ice machine to operate up to 72 hours if the
ice thickness probe (E19 fault) and/or water level
probe sensors fail (E20 fault).
•When the control board starts the safe mode an
alert is flashed on the LCD display to notify the
end-user they have a production problem.
•The control board automatically initiates and
monitors the safe mode. The control will
automatically exit the safe mode if a normal signal
is received from the input.
•After 72 hours the control board will enter a
standby mode and turn off
NOTE: The control board needs a five cycle history to
operate safe mode. If five cycles have never been
successfully completed the ice machine will shut-off.
•Example - The ice machine is a new installation
and the water has not been turned on. The ice
machine will stop after five cycles with five long
freeze cycles and five water system faults in the
event log.

Operational Checks
GENERAL
Manitowoc ice machines are factory-operated and
adjusted before shipment. Normally, new installations
do not require any adjustment.
To ensure proper operation, always follow the
Operational Checks:
•when starting the ice machine for the first time
•after a prolonged out of service period
•after cleaning and sanitizing
NOTE: Routine adjustments and maintenance
procedures are not covered by the warranty.
Part Number STH038 5/1277
ICE THICKNESS CHECK
3 mm (1/8")
ICE BRIDGE THICKNESS
PLACE 9/32” DRILL BIT
HERE TO SET INTIAL
GAP
After a harvest cycle, inspect the ice cubes in the ice
storage bin. The ice thickness probe is factory-set to
maintain the ice bridge thickness at 3 mm (1/8").
NOTE: Make sure the water curtain is in place when
performing this check. It prevents water from splashing
out of the water trough.
1. Inspect the bridge connecting the cubes. It should
be about 3 mm (1/8") thick.
2. If adjustment is necessary, turn the ice thickness
probe adjustment screw clockwise to increase
bridge thickness, counterclockwise to decrease
bridge thickness. As a starting point place a 7 mm
(9/32") drill bit between the ice thickness probe
and the evaporator. Make final adjustments to
achieve a 3 mm (1/8") thick bridge.
NOTE: Turning the adjustment 1/3 of a turn will
change the ice thickness about 1.5 mm (1/16").
3. Make sure the ice thickness probe wire doesn’t
restrict movement of the probe.

Ice Thickness Check
Sequence of Operation
SELF CONTAINED AIR OR WATER COOLED
NOTE: The power button must be depressed and the
water curtain/ice dampers must be in place on the
evaporator before the ice machine will start.
Initial Start-Up or Start-Up After
Automatic Shut-Off
1. Water Purge
Before the refrigerant compressor starts, the water
pump and water dump solenoid energize to purge the
ice machine of old water. This feature ensures that the
ice making cycle starts with fresh water.
2. Refrigeration System Equalization and
Start-Up
The harvest valve(s) and air pump(s) energize to
equalize high and low side refrigeration pressure.
After 5 seconds the contactor energizes the
compressor and supplies power to the condenser fan
motor. After 5 seconds the harvest valve(s) and air
pump(s) de-energize.
NOTE: The fan motor is wired through a fan cycle
pressure control and will cycle on and off when the
room temperatures is below 21°C (70°F).
Part Number STH038 5/1279
Freeze Sequence
3. Prechill
The compressor lowers the temperature of the
evaporator(s) before the water pump is energized. The
water fill valve will energize and remain on until water
completes the water level probe circuit.
4. Freeze
The water pump(s) energizes and water flows over the
evaporator. After water contacts the water level probe
the water fill valve de-energizes. The control board will
automatically cycle the water fill valve within the 6
minute water fill time limit. The valve energizes once in
the pre-chill and up to twice in the freeze cycle.
The freeze cycle continues until the six minute freeze
lock expires and enough ice has formed to send a
signal from the ice thickness probe to the control
board.
Harvest Sequence
5. Water Purge
The air pump(s) (when used) and the harvest valve(s)
open at the beginning of the water purge to divert hot
refrigerant gas into the evaporator.
The water pump(s) continues to run, and the water
dump valve energizes to purge the water in the water
trough.
6. Harvest
The air pump (when used) remains energized and the
harvest valve(s) remains open. The refrigerant gas
warms the evaporator causing the cubes to slide, as a
sheet, off the evaporator and into the storage bin.
The sliding sheet of cubes opens the water curtain/ice
damper and bin switch.
The momentary opening and re-closing of the bin
switch terminates the harvest sequence and returns
the ice machine to the freeze sequence (Step 3 - 4.)
80Part Number STH038 5/12
Automatic Shut-Off
7. Automatic Shut-Off
When the storage bin is full at the end of a harvest
sequence, the sheet of cubes fails to clear the water
curtain/ice damper and will hold it open. After the
water curtain/ice damper is held open for 30 seconds,
the ice machine shuts off. The ice machine remains off
for 3 minutes before it can automatically restart.
The ice machine remains off until enough ice has been
removed from the storage bin to allow the ice to fall
clear of the water curtain or all of the ice dampers. As
the water curtain/ice dampers swing back to the
closed position, the bin switch re-closes and the ice
machine restarts (steps 1 - 2), provided the 3 minute
delay period is complete.
Control Board Timers
The control board has the following non-adjustable
timers:
•The ice machine is locked into the freeze cycle for
6 minutes before a harvest cycle can be initiated.
This can be overridden by initiating a manual
harvest. Refer to “Manual Harvest” on page 65
•The maximum freeze time is 60 minutes at which
time the control board automatically initiates a
harvest sequence.
•The maximum harvest time is 3.5 minutes. The
control board automatically initiates a freeze
sequence when these times are exceeded.
•The maximum water fill is 6 minutes.

Troubleshooting
Safety Limits
In addition to standard safety controls, the control
board has built in safety limit controls which protect the
ice machine from major component failures.
Safety limits are stored and indicated by the control
board after three cycles. The number of cycles
required to stop the ice machine varies for each safety
limit.
•Safety Limit 1 - If the freeze time reaches 60
minutes, the control board automatically initiates a
harvest cycle. If 6 consecutive 60-minute freeze
cycles occur, the ice machine stops
•Safety Limit 2 - If the harvest time reaches 3.5
minutes, the control board automatically returns
the ice machine to the freeze cycle. If 500
consecutive 3.5 minute harvest cycles occur, the
ice machine stops.

Diagnosing an Ice Machine That Will Not Run
!
Warning
High (line) voltage is applied to the control board
(terminals #55 and #56) at all times. Removing
control board fuse or pressing the power button will
not remove the power supplied to the control board.
1. Verify primary voltage is supplied to ice machine
and the fuse/circuit breaker is closed.
2. Verify the high pressure cutout is closed.
3. Verify control board fuse is okay. If the micro or
display lights on the control board are energized
the fuse is okay.
4. Verify all bin switches function properly. A
defective bin switch can falsely indicate a full bin
of ice.
5. Perform control board, display board and touch
screen diagnostics. Be sure steps 1-6 were
followed thoroughly. Intermittent problems are not
usually related to the control board.

How to Use the Freeze Cycle Refrigeration System
Operational Analysis Table
GENERAL
These tables must be used with charts, checklists and
other references to eliminate refrigeration components
not listed on the tables and external items and
problems which can cause good refrigeration
components to appear defective. The tables list
different defects that may affect the ice machine’s
operation.
The items listed below must be followed to provide
accurate data:
1. Before starting, see “Before Beginning Service”
for a few questions to ask when talking to the ice
machine owner.
2. All doors and panels must be in place.
3. Initial freeze cycle is not used for diagnostics.
4. Wait 3 minutes into the second freeze cycle
before monitoring temperatures. This will allow
the system to stabilize and minimizes fluctuations.
94Part Number STH038 5/12
PROCEDURE
Step 1 Complete the “Operation Analysis”
column.
Read down the left “Operational Analysis” column.
Perform all procedures and check all information
listed. Each item in this column has supporting
reference material to help analyze each step.
While analyzing each item separately, you may find an
“external problem” causing a good refrigerant
component to appear bad. Correct problems as they
are found. If the operational problem is found, it is not
necessary to complete the remaining procedures.
Step 2 Enter Checkmarks (
).
Each time the actual findings of an item in the
“Operational Analysis” column matches the published
findings on the table, enter a Checkmark.
Example: Freeze cycle suction temperature is
determined to be low. Enter a Checkmark in the “low”
column.
Step 3 Add the Checkmarks listed under each of
the four columns. Note the column number with
the highest total and proceed to “Final Analysis.”
NOTE: If two columns have matching high numbers,
a procedure was not performed properly, supporting
material was not analyzed correctly or the problem
component is not covered by the analysis table.
