Installation Instructions
Location of Ice Machine
The location selected for the ice machine must meet the
following criteria. If any of these criteria are not met,
select another location.
• The location must be indoors.
• The location must be free of airborne and other
contaminants.
• The air temperature must be at least 40F (4C), but
must not exceed 110F (43C).
• The location must not be near heat-generating
equipment or in direct sunlight.
• The location must be capable of supporting the
weight of the ice machine and a full bin of ice.
• The location must allow enough clearance for water,
drain and electrical connections in the rear of the ice
machine.
• The location must not obstruct airflow through or
around the ice machine (condenser airflow is in and
out the front). Refer to the chart below for clearance
requirements.

** Because the heat of rejection varies during the ice making cycle, the
figure shown is an average.
Ice machines, like other refrigeration equipment, reject
heat through the condenser. It is helpful to know the
amount of heat rejected by the ice machine when sizing
air conditioning equipment where self -c on tained air cooled ice machines are installed.

Leveling the Ice Machine
1. Screw the leveling legs onto the bottom of the ice
machine.
2. Screw the foot of each leg in as far as possible.
The legs must be screwed in tightly to prevent
them from bending.
3. Move the ice machine into its final position.
4. Level the ice machine to assure that the siphon
system functions correctly. Use a level on top of the
ice machine. Turn each foot as necessary to level
the ice machine from front to back and side to side.
NOTE: An optional 2 ½" caster assembly is available for
use in place of the legs on the Q130, Q210 and Q270.
Installation instructions are supplied with the casters.
The ice machine must be protected if it will be
subjected to temperatures below 32F (0C).
Failure caused by exposure to freezing
temperatures is not covered by the warranty. See
“Removal from Service/Winterization” Section 4.

Electrical Service
GENERAL
All wiring must conform to local, state and national
codes.
VOLTAGE
The maximum allowable voltage variation is 10% of
the rated voltage on the ice machine model/serial
number plate at start-up (when the electrical load is
highest).
The 115/1/60 ice machines are factory pre-wired with a
8’ power cord, and NEMA 5-15P-plug configuration.
The 208-230/1/60 and 230/50/1 ice machines are
factory pre-wired with a 8’ power cord only, no plug is
supplied.
FUSE/CIRCUIT BREAKER
A separate fuse/circuit breaker must be provided for
each ice machine. Circuit breakers must be H.A.C.R.
rated (does not apply in Canada).
The ice machine must be grounded in accordance
with national and local electrical codes.
TOTAL CIRCUIT AMPACITY
The total circuit ampacity is used to help select the wire
size of the electrical supply.
The wire size (or gauge) is also dependent upon
location, materials used, length of run, etc., so it must be
determined by a qualified electrician.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI/GFI) protection is
a system that shuts down the electric circuit (opens it)
when it senses an unexpected loss of power,
presumably to ground. Manitowoc Ice, Inc. does not
recommend the use of a GFCI/GFI circuit protection with
our equipment. If code requires the us e of a GF CI /G FI
then you must follow the local code. The circuit must be
dedicated, sized properly and there must be a panel
GFCI/GFI breaker. We do not recommend GFCI/GFI
outlets as they are known for more intermittent n uisance
trips than panel breakers.
PERSONAL INJURY POTENTIAL
If the supply cord is damaged, do not operate the
equipment until the cord is replaced by a service
agent or similarly qualified person.

Water Service/Drains
WATER SUPPLY
Local water conditions may require treatment of the
water to inhibit scale formation, filter sediment, remove
chlorine, and improve taste and clarity.
PERSONAL INJURY POTENTIAL
For ice making, connect to a potable water supply
only .
If you are installing a Manitowoc water filter
system, refer to the Installation Instructions
supplied with the filter system for ice making water
inlet connections.
WATER INLET LINES
Follow these guidelines to install water inlet lines:
• Do not connect the ice machine to a hot water
supply. Be sure all hot water restrictors installed for
other equipment are working. (Check valves on sink
faucets, dishwashers, etc.)
• If water pressure exceeds the maximum
(80 psig-551.5 kPA) recommended pressure, obtain
a water pressure regulator from your Manitowoc
distributor.
• Install a water shut-off valve and union for both the
ice making and condenser water lines.
• Insulate water inlet lines to prevent condensation.
DRAIN CONNECTIONS
Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to
prevent drain water from flowing back into the ice
machine and storage bin:
• Drain lines must have a 1.5 inch drop per 5 feet of
run (2.5 cm per meter), and must not create traps.
• The floor drain must be large enough to
accommodate drainage from all drains.
• Run separate bin and water-cooled condenser dra in
lines. Insulate them to prevent condensation.
• Vent the bin drai n to the atmosphere. Do not vent the
condenser drain on water-cooled models.
COOLING TOWER APPLICATIONS
(Water-Cooled Models)
A water cooling tower installation does not require
modification of the ice machine. The water regulator
valve for the condenser continues to control the
refrigeration discharge pressure.
It is necessary to know the amount of heat rejection and
the pressure drop through the condenser and water
valves (inlet and outlet) when using a cooling tower on
an ice machine.
• Water entering the condenser must not exceed 90F
(32C).
• Water flow through the con denser must not exceed 5
gallons (19 liters) per minute.
• Allow for a pressure drop of 7 psi (48 kPA) between
the condenser water inlet and the outlet of the ice
machine.
• Water exiting the condenser must not exceed 110F
(43C).
Part Number 040001358 05/10 7
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires
that all water-cooled models must be connected
only to a closed loop, cooling tower system.
