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 free of airborne and other
contaminants.
•The air temperature must be at least 35°F (1.6°C),
but must not exceed 110°F (43.4°C).
•Remote air cooled - The air temperature must be at
least -20°F (-29°C), but must not exceed 120°F
(49°C)

B.T.U./Hour
Because the heat of rejection varies during the ice making cycle,
the figure shown is an average.
Air Conditioning
Heat of Rejection
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.
This information is also necessary when evaluating the
benefits of using water-cooled or remote condensers to
reduce air conditioning loads. The amount of heat added
to an air conditioned environment by an ice machine
using a water-cooled or remote condenser is negligible.
Knowing the amount of heat rejected is also important
when sizing a cooling tower for a water-cooled
condenser. Use the peak figure for sizing the cooling
tower.
Peak
Caution
!
The ice machine must be protected if it will be
subjected to temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
Failure caused by exposure to freezing
temperatures is not covered by the warranty. See
“Removal from Service/Winterization”.

GENERAL
!
Warning
All wiring must conform to local, state and national
codes.
VOLTAGE
The maximum allowable voltage variation is ±1 0% of the
rated voltage at ice machine start-up (when the electrical
load is highest).
Warning
!
The ice machine must be grounded in accordance
with national and local electrical codes.
Observe correct polarity of incoming line voltage.
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).
MINIMUM CIRCUIT AMPACITY
The minimum circuit ampacity is used to help select the
wire size of the electrical supply. (Minimum circuit
ampacity is not the ice machine’s running amp load.)
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.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Refer to Ice Machine Model/Serial Plate for voltage/
amperage specifications.
Important
S Series Ice Machines (* indicates preliminary data)
These diagrams are not intended to show proper
wire routing, wire sizing, disconnects, etc., only the
correct wire connections.
All electrical work, including wire routing and
grounding, must conform to local, state and national
electrical codes.
Though wire nuts are shown in the drawin gs, th e ice

Installation InstructionsSection 2
Water Supply and Drain Requirements
WATER SUPPLY
Local water conditions may require treatment of the
water to inhibit scale formation, filter sediment, and
remove chlorine odor and taste.
Important
If you are installing a Manitowoc Arctic Puref 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
recommended pressure, obtain a water pressure
regulator from your Manitowoc distributor.
•Install a water shut-off valve for both the ice making
and condenser water lines.
•Insulate water inlet lines to prevent condensation.
Caution
!
Do not apply heat to water valve inlet fitting. This will
damage plastic valve body.
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 larg e en o ug h to
accommodate drainage from all drains.
•Run separate bin and ice machine drain lines.
Insulate them to prevent condensatio n.
•Vent the bin and ice machine drain 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 rejectio n, 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 no t exceed 90°F
(32.2°C).
•Water flow through the condenser must n ot 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 110°F
(43.3°C).
Each remote ice machine ships from the factory with a
refrigerant charge appropriate for installation with line
sets of up to 50' (15.25 m). The serial tag on the ice
machine indicates the refrigerant charge.
If remote line set length is between 50' and 100' (15.25-
30.5 m), add
nameplate charge.
Tubing length: ______ ________________________
Refrigerant added to nameplate: ________________
New total refrigerant charge: ___________________
1.5 lb. (24 oz) (0.68 kg) of refrigerant to the
Typical Additional Refrigerant Label
If there is no additional label, the nameplate charge is
sufficient for line sets up to 100' (30.5 m). (See the chart
below.)
!
Warning
Potential Personal Injury Situation
The ice machine contains refrigerant charge.
Installation of the line sets must be performed by a
properly trained and EPA certified refrigeration
technician aware of the dangers of dealing with
refrigerant charged equipment.
Caution
!
Never add more than nameplate charge to the
refrigeration system for any application.
Additional refrigerant may be required for installations
using line sets between 50' and 100’ (15.25-30.5 m)
long. If additional refrigerant is required, an additional
label located next to the Model/Serial Numbers decal
states the amount of refrigerant to be added.
Condensers must be mounted horizontally with the fan
motor on top.
Remote condenser installations consist of vertical and
horizontal line sets between the ice machine and the
condenser. When combined, they must fit within
approved specifications. The following guidelines,
drawings and calculation methods must be followed to
verify a proper remote condenser installation.
Caution
!
The 60 month compressor warranty (including the
36 month labor replacement warranty) will not apply
if the remote ice machine is not installed according
to specifications.
This warranty also will not apply if the refrigeration
system is modified with a condenser, heat reclaim
device, or other parts or assemblies not
manufactured by Manitowoc Ice, Inc., unless
specifically approved in writing by Manitowoc Ice,
Inc.
GUIDELINES FOR ROUTING LINE SETS
First, cut a 2.5" (6.35 cm) circular hole in the wall or ro of
for tubing routing. The line set end with the 90° bend will
connect to the ice machine. The straight end will connect
to the remote condenser.
Follow these guidelines when routing the refrigerant
lines. This will help insure proper performance and
service accessibility.
1. Optional - Make the service loop in the line sets (as
shown below). This permits easy access to the ice
machine for cleaning and service. Do not use hard
rigid copper at this location.
2. Required - Do not form traps in the refrigeration lines
(except the service loop). Refrigerant oil must be
free to drain toward the ice machine or the
condenser. Route excess tubing in a supported
downward horizontal spiral (as shown below). Do
not coil tubing vertically.
3. Required - Keep outdoor refrigerant line runs as
short as possible.
The maximum length is 100' (30.5 m).
The ice machine compressor must have the proper oil
return. The receiver is designed to ho ld a ch ar ge
sufficient to operate the ice machine in ambient
temperatures between -20°F (-29°C) and 120°F (49°C),
with line set lengths of up to 100' (30.5 m).
Line Set Rise/Drop
The maximum rise is 35' (10.7 m).
The maximum drop is 15' (4.5 m).
Caution
!
If a line set has a rise followed by a drop, another
rise cannot be made. Likewise, if a line set has a
drop followed by a rise, another drop cannot be
made.
Calculated Line Set Distance
The maximum calculated distance is 150' (45.7 m).
Make the following calculations to make sure the line set
layout is within specifications.
1. Insert the measured rise into the formula below.
Multiply by 1.7 to get the calculated rise.
(Example: A condenser located 10 feet above the
ice machine has a calculated rise of 17 feet.)
2. Insert the measured drop into the formula below.
Multiply by 6.6 to get the calculated drop.
(Example. A condenser located 10 feet below the
ice machine has a calculated drop of 66 feet.)
3. Insert the measured horizontal distance into the
formula below. No calculation is necessary.
4. Add together the calculated rise, calculated drop,
and horizont al distance to get the total calculated distance. If this total exceeds 150' (45.7 m), move
the condenser to a new location and perform the
calculations again.
Line set rises, drops, horizontal ru ns (or combinations of
these) in excess of the stated maximums will exceed
compressor start-up and design limits. This will cause
poor oil return to the compressor.

Section 2Installation Instructions
LENGTHENING OR REDUCING LINE SET LENGTHS
In most cases, by routing the line set properly,
shortening will not be necessary. When shortening or
lengthening is required, do so before connecting the line
set to the ice machine or the remote condenser. This
prevents the loss of refrigerant in the ice machine or
condenser.
The quick connect fittings on the line sets are equipped
with Schraeder valves. Use these valves to recover any
vapor charge from the line set. When lengthening or
shortening lines follow good refrigeration practices,
purge with nitrogen and insulate all tubing. Do not
change the tube sizes. Evacuate the lines and place
about 5 oz (143g) of vapor refrigerant charge in each
line.
CONNECTING A LINE SET
1. Remove the dust caps from the line set, condenser
and ice machine.
2. Apply refrigeration oil to the threads on the quick
disconnect couplers before connecting them to the
condenser.
3. Carefully thread the female fitting to the condenser
or ice machine by hand.
4. Tighten the couplings with a wrench until they
bottom out.
5. Turn an additional 1/4 turn to ensure proper brassto-brass seating. Torque to the following
specifications:
REMOTE RECEIVER SERVICE VALVE
The receiver service valve is closed during shipment.
Open the valve prior to starting the ice machine.

performance or reliability.
approval is for full warranty coverage
test the
Important
Manitowoc warrants only complete new and unused
remote packages. Guaranteeing the integrity of a
new ice machine under the terms of our warranty
prohibits the use of pre-existing (used) tubing or
condensers.
HEAD PRESSURE CONTROL VALVE
Any remote condenser connected to a Manitowoc SModel Ice Machine must have a head pressure control
valve #836809-3 (available from Manitowoc Distributors)
installed on the condenser p ackage. Mani towoc will not accept substitute “off the shelf” head pressure control
valves.
Caution
!
Do not use a fan cycling control to try to maintain
discharge pressure. Compressor failure will result.
FAN MOTOR
The condenser fan must be on during the complete ice
machine freeze cycle (do not cycle on fan cycle control).
The ice maker has a condenser fan motor cir cui t fo r u se
with a Manitowoc condenser . It is recommended that this
circuit be used to control the condenser fan(s) on the
multi-circuit condenser to assure it is on at the proper
time. Do not exceed the rated amp s for the fan moto r
circuit listed on the ice machine’s serial tag.
INTERNAL CONDENSER VOLUME
The multi-circuit condenser internal volume must not be
less than or exceed that used by Manitowoc (see chart
on next page). Do not exceed internal volume and tr y
to add charge to compensate, as compressor failure
will result.
CONDENSER ∆T
∆T is the difference in temperature between the
condensing refrigerant and entering air. The ∆T should
be 15 to 20°F (-9.4 to -6.6°C) at the beginning of the
freeze cycle (peak load conditions) and drop down to 12
to 17°F (-11.1 to -8.3°C) during the last 75% of the
freeze cycle (average load conditions).
REFRIGERANT CHARGE
Remote ice machines have the serial plate refrigerant
charge (total system charge) located in the ice maker
section. (Remote condensers and line sets are supplied
with only a vapor charge.)
Caution
!
Never add more than nameplate charge to ice
machine for any application.
QUICK CONNECT FITTINGS
The ice machine and line sets come with quick connect
fittings. It is recommended that matching quick connects
(available through Manitowoc Distributors) be installed in
the multi-circuit condenser, and that a vapor “holding”
charge (5 oz.) of proper refrigerant be added to the
condenser prior to connection of the ice machine or line
set to the condenser.

Sequence Of Operation
NOTE: The toggle switch must be in the ice position and
the water curtain 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 compressor starts, the water pump and water
dump solenoid are energized for 45 seconds, to
completely purge the ice machine of old water. This
feature ensures that the ice making cycle starts with
fresh water.
The harvest valve(s) is also energized during water
purge, although it stays on for an additional 5 seconds
(50 seconds total on time) during the initial refrigeration
system start-up.
When Used - The air compressor energizes for the last
10 seconds of the cycle.
2. Refrigeration System Start-Up
The compressor starts after the 45 second water purge,
and it remains on throughout the entire Freeze and
Harvest Sequences. The water fill valve is energized at
the same time as the compressor. The harvest valve(s)
remains on for 5 seconds during initial compressor startup and then shuts off.
At the same time the compressor starts, the condenser
fan motor (air-cooled models) is supplied with power
throughout the entire Freeze and Harvest Sequences.
The fan motor is wired through a fan cycle pressure
control, therefore it may cycle on and off. (The
compressor and condenser fan motor are wired through
the contactor. As a result, anytime the contactor coil is
energized, the compressor and fan motor are supplied
with power.)
FREEZE SEQUENCE
3. Prechill
The compressor is on for 30 seconds (60 seconds initial
cycle) prior to water flow, to prechill the evaporator. The
water fill valve remains on until the water level probe is
satisfied.
4. Freeze
The water pump restarts after the prechill. An even flow
of water is directed across the evaporator and into each
cube cell, where it freezes. The water fill valve will cycle
on and then off one more time to refill the water trough.
When sufficient ice has formed, the water flow (not the
ice) contacts the ice thickness probe. After
approximately 10 seconds of continual water contact,
the harvest sequence is initiated. The ice machine
cannot initiate a harvest sequence until a 6 minute
freeze lock has been surpassed.
NOTE: Freeze lock is bypassed after moving the toggle
switch from OFF to ICE position for the first cycle only.
3-2 Part Number 80-1480-3
Section 3Ice Machine Operation
HARVEST SEQUENCE
5. Water Purge
The harvest valve(s) opens at the beginning of the water
purge to divert hot refrigerant gas into the evaporator.
The water pump continues to run, and the water dump
valve energizes for 45 seconds to purge the water in the
sump trough. The water fill valve energizes (turns on)
and de-energizes (turns off) strictly by time. The water fill
valve energizes for the last 15 seconds of the 45-second
water purge.
After the 45 second water purge, the water fill valve,
water pump and dump valve de-energize. (Refer to
“Water Purge Adjustment” for details.)
6. Harvest
The harvest valve(s) remains open and 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 swings the water curtain out,
opening the bin switch.
The momentary opening and re-clo sing of th e bin switch
terminates the harvest sequence and retu rn s th e ice
machine to the freeze sequence (Step 3 - 4.)
When Used - The air compressor energizes after 35
seconds and remains energized throughout the entire
harvest cycle. The air compressor will automatically
energize for 60 seconds when the harvest cycle time
exceeded 75 seconds in the previous cycle.
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 and will hold it open. After the water curtain is
held open for 30 seconds, the ice machine shuts of f. 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. As the water curtain swings back to
the operating position, the bin switch re-closes and the
ice machine restarts (step s 1 - 2), pr ovide d the 3 mi nute
delay period is complete.
SAFETY TIMERS
The control board has the following non-adjustable
safety timers:
•The ice machine is locked into the freeze cycle for 6
minutes before a harvest cycle can be initiated.
Freeze lock is bypassed after moving the toggle
switch from OFF to ICE position for the first cycle
only.
•The maximum freeze time is 60 minutes at which
time the control board automatically initiates a
harvest sequence (steps 5 & 6).
•The maximum harvest time is 3.5 minutes at which
time the control board automatically initiates a freeze
sequence (steps 3 & 4).
WARM WATER RINSE CYCLE
Closing the back of the evaporator allows ice to build up
on the rear of the evaporator and the plastic evaporator
frame parts. After 200 freeze/harvest cycles have been
complete the control board will initiate a warm water
rinse.
After the 200th harvest cycle ends:
•The Clean and Harvest LED’s energize to indicate
the ice machine is in a warm water rinse.
•The compressor and harvest valve remain
energized.
•The water pump energizes.
•The water inlet valve energizes until water contacts
the water level probe.
•The compressor and harvest valve warm the water
for 5 minutes, then de-energize.
•The water pump remains energized for an additional
5 minutes (10 minute total on time) then deenergizes.
NOTE:
moving the toggle switch to the OFF position, then back to ICE.
The warm water rinse cycle can be terminated by

Ice Machine OperationSection 3
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 maintenanc e
procedures are not covered by the warranty.
WATER LEVEL
The water level sensor is set to maintain the proper
water level above the water pump housing. The water
level is not adjustable. If the water level is incorrect,
check the water level probe for damage (probe bent,
etc.). Clean the water level probe with ice machine
cleaner, rinse thoroughly and re-check operation. Re pair
or replace the probe as necessary.
ICE THICKNESS CHECK
The ice thickness probe is factory-set to maintain the ice
bridge thickness at 1/8" (.32 cm).
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 1/8" (.32 cm) thick.
2. If adjustment is necessary, turn the ice thickness
probe adjustment screw clockwise to increase
bridge thickness, counterclockwise to decrease
bridge thickness. Set at 1/4” gap between ice
machine and evaporator as starting point, then
adjust to achieve a 1/8” bridge thickness.

HARVEST SEQUENCE WATER PURGE
The harvest sequence water purge adjustment may be
used when the ice machine is hooked up to special
water systems, such as a de-ionized water treatment
system.
Warning
!
Disconnect electric power to the ice machine at the
electrical disconnect before proceeding.
Important
The harvest sequence water purg e is factory-set at
45 seconds. A shorter purge setting (with standard
water supplies such as city water) is not
recommended. This can increase water system
cleaning and sanitizing requirements.
•The harvest sequence water purge is factory set for
45 seconds. Repositioning the jumper will set the
harvest water purge to 0 seconds. This setting does
not affect the SeCs or AuCs (cleaning) sequences.
•During the harvest sequence water purge, the water
fill valve energizes and de-energizes by time. The
water purge must be at the factory setting of 45
seconds for the water fill valve to energize during the
last 15 seconds of the water purge. If it is set to less
than 45 seconds, the water fill valve will not energize
during the water purge.

Cleaning the Condenser
GENERAL
! Warning
Disconnect electric power to the ice machine head
section and the remote condensing unit at the
electric service switches before cleaning the
condenser.
A dirty condenser restricts airflow, resulting in
excessively high operating temperatures. This reduces
ice production and shortens component life. Clean the
condenser at least every six months. Follow the steps
below.
! Warning
The condenser fins are sharp. Use care when
cleaning them.
1. The washable aluminum filter on self-contained ice
machines is designed to catch dust dirt lint and
grease. Clean the filter with a mild soap and water.
2. Clean the outside of the condenser with a sof t bru sh
or a vacuum with a brush attachment. Be careful not
to bend the condenser fins.
3. Shine a flashlight through the condenser to check
for dirt between the fins. If dirt remains:
A. Blow compressed air through the condenser fins
from the inside. Be careful not to bend the fan
blades.
B. Use a commercial condenser coil cleaner.
Follow the directions and cautions supplied with
the cleaner.

blades are excessively dirty, wash with warm, soapy
water and rinse thoroughly.
Caution

If you are cleaning the condenser fan blades with
water, cover the fan motor to prevent water damage
and disconnect electrical power.
Water-Cooled Condenser
and Water Regulating Valve
Symptoms of restrictions in the condenser water circu it
include:
•Low ice production
•High water consumption
•High operating temperatures
•High operating pressur e s
If the ice machine is experiencing any of these symptoms,
the water-cooled condenser and water regulating valve
may require cleaning due to scale build-up.
Because the cleaning procedures require special pump s
and cleaning solutions, qualified maintenance or service
personnel must perform them.

Guardianf
Slime is a leading cause of ice machine breakdowns and biologica l growth is a health co ncern. The Guardian f system
releases chlorine dioxide on a controlled basis to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi that form slime and cause
malodors in the food zone of ice machines. The Guardianf will not control mineral or other water borne buildup. Your
water quality will determine the length of time before mineral buildup affects ice machine performance. Mineral
buildup must be removed as often as necessary to ensure trouble-free operation of the ice machine.

Safety Timers
The control board has the following non-adjustable safety timers:
•The ice machine is locked into the freeze cycle for 6 minutes,
before a harvest sequence can be initiated. The freeze lock is
bypassed when the toggle switch is moved from the OFF to ICE
position on the first cycle only.
•The maximum freeze time is 60 minutes, at which time the control
board automatically initiates a harvest sequence (steps 5-6).
•The maximum harvest time is 3-1/2 minutes, at which time the
control board automatically terminates the harvest sequence. If
the bin switch is open, the ice machine will go to automatic shut-off
(step 7). If the bin switch is closed, the ice machine will go to the
freeze sequence (steps 3-4).

Safety Timers
The ice machine remains off for 3 minutes before it can
automatically restart. The ice machine restarts (steps 1-
2) immediately after the delay period, if the bin switch re closes prior to 3 minutes.
Harvest Water Purge
The circuit board has an adjustable water purge in the
harvest cycle. This permits a 0 or 45 second purge
cycle.
6-2
The control board has the following non-adjustable
safety timers:
•The ice machine is locked into the freeze cycle for
the first 6 minutes, not allowing the ice thickness
probe to initiate a harvest sequence. The freeze lock
is bypassed when the toggle switch is moved from
the OFF to ICE position on the first cycle only.
•The maximum freeze time is 60 minutes, at which
time the control board automatically initiates a
harvest sequence (steps 5-6).
•The maximum harvest time is 3-1/2 minutes, at which
time the control board automatically terminates the
harvest sequence. If the bin switch is open, the ice
machine will go to automatic shut-off (step 7). If the
bin switch is closed, the ice machine will go to the
freeze sequence (steps 3-4).

1. WATER PURGE
Before the compressor starts, the
water pump and water dump
solenoid are energized for 45
seconds to purge old water from the
ice machine. This ensures that the
ice-making cycle starts with fresh
water.
The harvest valve(s) is also
energized during the water purge. In
the case of an initial refrigeration
start-up or auto shut-off, it stays on
for an additional
5 seconds (50 seconds total).
When Used - The air compressor
energizes for the last 10 seconds of
the cycle.

START-UP
The compressor starts after the 45second water purge, and it remains
on throughout the Freeze and
Harvest cycles.
The water fill valve is energized at
the same time as the compressor.
The harvest valve(s) remains on for
the first 5 seconds of the initial
compressor start-up and then shuts
off.
At the same time the compressor
starts, the condenser fan motor (aircooled models) is supplied with
power throughout the entire freeze
and harvest sequences.
The fan motor is wired through a fan
cycle pressure control, and may
cycle on and off. (The compressor
and the condenser fan motor are
wired through the contactor . Any time
the contactor coil is energized, the
compressor and fan motor are
supplied with power.)

4. FREEZE
The water pump starts after the pre-
chill. An even flow of water is directed
across the evaporator and into each
cube cell, where it freezes.
The water fill valve will cycle off then
on one more time to refill the water
trough.
When sufficient ice has formed, the
water flow (not the ice) contacts the
ice thickness probes. After
approximately 10 seconds of
continual contact, a harvest cycle is
initiated.
NOTE: The ice machine cannot
initiate a harvest cycle until a 6minute freeze lock has expired.

5. WATER PURGE
The harvest valve(s) opens at the
beginning of the water purge to divert
hot refrigerant gas into the
evaporator.
The water pump continues to run,
and the water dump valve energizes
for 45 seconds to purge the water in
the sump trough. The water fill valve
energizes and de-energizes strictly
by time. The water fill valve energizes
for the last 15 seconds of the 45second water purge.
After the 45 second water purge, the
water fill valve, water pump and
dump valve de-energize. (Refer to
“Water Purge Adjustment” for
details.)
The air compressor (when used) will
energize after 35 seconds.

6. HARVEST
The harvest valve(s) remains open
and the refrigerant gas warms the
evaporator . This causes the cubes to
slide, as a sheet, off the evaporator
and into the storage bin.
The sliding sheet of cubes swings the
water curtain out, opening the bin
switch. This momentary opening and
closing of the bin switch terminates
the Harvest Cycle and returns the ice
machine to the Freeze Cycle (steps
3-4).
The air compressor (when used)
remains energized throughout the
entire harvest cycle. The air
compressor will automatically
energize after 60 seconds when the
harvest cycle time exceeded 75
seconds in the previous cycle.

7. AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF
When the storage bin is full at the
end of a harvest cycle, the sheet of
cubes fails to clear the water curtain
and holds it open. After the water
curtain is held open for 30 seconds,
the ice machine shuts off.
The ice machine remains off until
enough ice is removed from the
storage bin to allow the sheet of
cubes to drop clear of the water
curtain. As the water curtain swings
back to the operating position, the bin
switch closes and the ice machine
restarts (steps 1-2), provided the 3
minute delay period is complete.
NOTE: The ice machine must remain
off for 3 minutes before it can
automatically restart.

4. FREEZE
The water pump starts after the pre-
chill. An even flow of water is directed
across the evaporator and into each
cube cell, where it freezes.
The water fill valve will cycle off then
on one more time to refill the water
trough.
When sufficient ice has formed, the
water flow (not the ice) contacts the
ice thickness probes. After
approximately 10 seconds of
continual contact, a harvest cycle is
initiated.
NOTE: The ice machine cannot
initiate a harvest cycle until a 6minute freeze lock has expired.

5. WATER PURGE
The harvest valve and HPR solenoid
also open at the beginning of the
water purge to divert hot refrigerant
gas into the evaporator.
The water pump continues to run,
and the water dump valve energizes
for 45 seconds to purge the water in
the sump trough. The water fill valve
energizes (turns on) and deenergizes (turns off) strictly by time.
The water fill valve energizes for the
last 15 seconds of the 45-second
water purge. The water purge must
be at the factory setting of 45
seconds for the fill valve to energize
during the last 15 seconds of the
Water Purge. If set at less than 45
seconds the water fill valve does not
energize during the water purge.
NOTE: After the 45 second water
purge, the water fill valve, water
pump and dump valve de-energize.

6. HARVEST
The harvest valve(s) and HPR
solenoid valve remain open, allowing
refrigerant gas to warm the
evaporator . This causes the cubes to
slide, as a sheet, off the evaporator
and into the storage bin.
The sliding sheet of cubes swings the
water curtain out, opening the bin
switch. This momentary opening and
closing of the bin switch terminates
the Harvest Cycle and returns the ice
machine to the Freeze Cycle (steps
3-4).
The air compressor (when used)
energizes after 35 seconds into the
harvest cycle. The air compressor
will automatically energize after 60
seconds when the harvest cycle time
exceeded 75 seconds in the previous
cycle.

Wiring Diagrams
The following pages contain electrical wiring diagrams. Be sure you are referring to the correct diagram for the ice
machine which you are servicing.
Warning
!
Always disconnect power before working on electrical circuitry.
WIRING DIAGRAM LEGEND
The following symbols are used on all of the wiring diagrams:
*Internal Compressor Overload
(Some models have external compressor overloads)
**Fan Motor Run Capacitor
(Some models do not incorporate fan motor run capacitor)
TBTerminal Board Connection
(Terminal board numbers are printed on the actual terminal board)
The control board fuse stops ice machine operation if
electrical components fail causing high amp draw.
Specifications
The main fuse is 250 Volt, 7 amp.
Check Procedure
!
Warning
High (line) voltage is applied to the control board
(terminals #55 and #56) at all times. Removing the
control board fuse or moving the toggle switch to
OFF will not remove the power supplied to the
control board.
1. If the bin switch light is on with the water curtain
closed, the fuse is good.
Warning
!
Disconnect electrical power to the entire ice
machine before proceeding.
2. Remove the fuse. Check the resistance across the
fuse with an ohm meter.
BIN SWITCH
Function
Movement of the water curtain controls bin switch
operation. The bin switch has two main functions:
1. Terminating the harvest cycle and returning the ice
machine to the freeze cycle.
This occurs when the bin switch is opened and
closed again within 30 seconds during the harvest
cycle.
2. Automatic ice machine shut-off.
If the storage bin is full at the end of a harvest cycle,
the sheet of cubes fails to clear the water curtain and
holds it open. After the water curtain is held open for
30 seconds, the ice machine shuts off. The ice
machine remains off until enough ice is removed
from the storage bin to allow the sheet of cubes to
drop clear of the water curtain. As the water curtain
swings back to the operating position, the bin switch
closes and the ice machine restarts, provide the
three-minute delay has expired.
Important
The water curtain must be ON (bin switch(s) closed )
to start ice making.
ReadingResult
Open (OL)Replace fuse
Closed (O)Fuse is good
Specifications
The bin switch is a magnetically operated reed switch.
The magnet is attached to the lower right corner of the
water curtain. The switch is attached to the right
bulkhead wall.
The bin switch is connected to a varying D.C. voltage
circuit. (Voltage does not remain constant.)
NOTE: Because of a wide variation in D.C. voltage, it is
not recommended that a voltmeter be used to check bin
switch operation.
Part Number 80-1480-36-29
Electrical SystemSection 6
Symptoms
Bin Switch Fails Open
•The ice machine will not start with the toggle switch
in the ice position, but runs normally with the toggle
switch in the clean position.
Bin Switch Fails Closed
•Safety limit 2 is recorded in the control board
memory and the harvest cycle continues after the ice
opens and closes the water curtain (harvest cycle is
3.5 minutes long).
Diagnostic Aids:
•Always use the water curtain magnet to cycle the
switch (a larger or smaller magnet will affect switch
operation).
•Readings are affected by your test lead connection
and VOM battery strength. Verify you have solid
connections and a correctly functioning VOM before
testing bin switch.
•Open the curtain for 3 seconds, then close the
curtain for 3 seconds. This will allow your VOM
display to settle.
•With the bin switch closed your meter reading should
be 0 (0 to 10 is acceptable). With the curtai n open the
reading must be infinity (OL).
Continuity Test
Water Curtain Removal Notes
The water curtain must be on (bin switch closed) to star t
ice making. While a freeze cycle is in progress, the water
curtain can be removed and installed at any time without
interfering with the electrical control sequence.
If the ice machine goes into harvest sequence while the
water curtain is removed, one of the following will
happen:
•Water curtain remains off:
When the harvest cycle time reaches 3.5 minutes
and the bin switch is not closed, the ice machine
stops as though the bin were full.
•Water curtain is put back on:
If the bin switch closes prior to reaching the 3.5minute point, the ice machine immediately returns to
another freeze sequence prechill.
1. Disconnect the bin switch wires to isolate the bin
switch from the control board.
2. Connect an ohmmeter to the disconnected bin
switch wires.
3. Cycle the bin switch open and closed 25 times by
opening and closing the water curtain. Watch for
consistent readings each time the bin switch is
cycled open and closed (bin switch failure could be
erratic).

COMPRESSOR ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSTICS
The compressor will not start or will trip repeatedly on
overload.
Check Resistance (Ohm) Values
NOTE: Compressor windings can have very low ohm
values. Use a properly calibrated meter.
Perform the resistance test after the compressor cools.
The compressor dome should be cool enough to touch
(below 120°F/49°C) to assure that the overload is closed
and the resistance readings will be accurate.
SINGLE PHASE COMPRESSORS
1. Disconnect power from the cuber and remove the
wires from the compressor terminals.
2. The resistance values between C and S and
between C and R, when added together, should
equal the resistance value between S and R.
3. If the overload is open, there will be a resistance
reading between S and R, and open readings
between C and S and between C and R. Allow the
compressor to cool, then check the readings again.
THREE PHASE COMPRESSORS
1. Disconnect power from the cuber and remove the
wires from the compressor terminals.
2. The resistance values between L1 and L2, between
L2 and L3, and between L3 and L1 should all be
equal.
3. If the overload is open, there will be open readings
between L1 and L2, between L2 and L3, and
between L3 and L1. Allow the compressor to cool,
then check the readings again.
Check Motor Windings to Ground
Check continuity between all three terminals and the
compressor shell or copper refrigeration line. Scrape
metal surface to get good contact. If continuity is
present, the compressor windings are grounded and th e
compressor should be replaced.
Determine if the Compressor is Seized
Check the amp draw while the compressor is trying to
start.
COMPRESSOR DRAWING LOCKED ROTOR
The two likely causes of this are:
•Defective starting component
•Mechanically seized compressor
To determine which you have:
1. Install high and low side gauges.
2. Try to start the compressor.
3. Watch the pressures closely.
A. If the pressures do not move, the compressor is
seized. Replace the compressor.
B. If the pressures move, the compressor is turning
slowly and is not seized. Check the capacitors
and start relay.
COMPRESSOR DRAWING HIGH AMPS
The continuous amperage draw on start-up should not
be near the maximum fuse size indicated on the serial
tag.
Diagnosing Capacitors
•If the compressor attempts to st art, o r hums and trip s
the overload protector, check the starting
components before replacing the compressor.
•Visual evidence of capacitor failure can include a
bulged terminal end or a ruptured membrane. Do not
assume a capacitor is good if no visual evidence is
present.
•A good test is to install a known good substitute
capacitor.
•Use a capacitor tester when checking a suspect
capacitor. Clip the bleed resistor off the capacitor
terminals before testing.
Part Number 80-1480-36-31
Electrical SystemSection 6
PTCR DIAGNOSTICS
What is a PTCR?
A PTCR (or Positive T emperature Coefficient Resistor) is
made from high-purity, semi-conducting ceramics.
A PTCR is useful because of its resistance versus
temperature characteristic. The PTCR has a low
resistance over a wide (low) temperature range, but
upon reaching a certain higher temperature, its
resistance greatly increases, virtually stopping current
flow. When the source of he at is removed, the PTCR
returns to its initial base resistance.
In severe duty cycles, it can be used to repeatedly
switch (virtually stop) large currents at line voltages.
PTCR’s have been used for many years in millions of
HVAC applications. In place of using the conventional
start relay/start capacitor, a simple PTCR provides the
starting torque assistance to PSC (Permanent Split
Capacitor) single-phase compressors, which can
equalize pressures before starting.
Compressor Start Sequence
PTCR’s provide additional starting torque by increasing
the current in the auxiliary (start) winding during starting.
The PTCR is wired across the run capacitor (in series
with the start winding).
1. It is important for the refrigerant discharge and
suction pressures to be somewhat equalized prior to
the compressor starting. To assure equalization of
pressures the harvest valve (and HPR valve on
remotes) will energize for 45 seconds prior to
compressor starting. The harvest valve (and HPR
valve on remotes) remains on for an additional 5
seconds while the compressor is starting.
2. When starting the compressor, the contactor closes
and the PTCR, which is at a low resistance value,
allows high starting current to flow in the start
winding.
3. The current passing through the PTCR causes it to
rapidly heat up, and after approximately .25-1
second it abruptly “switches” to a very high
resistance, virtually stopping current flow through it.
4. At this point the motor is up to speed and all current
going through the start winding will now pass
through the run capacitor.
5. The PTCR remains hot and at a high resistance as
long as voltage remains on the circuit.
6. It is important to provide time between compressor
restarts to allow the PTCR to cool down to near its
initial temperature (low resistance). When the
contactor opens to stop the compressor, the PTCR
cools down to its initial low resistance and is again
ready to provide starting torque assistance. To
assure the PTCR has cooled down, during an
automatic shut-off, the S model ice machine s have a
built-in 3-minute off time before it can restart.
6-32
Part Number 80-1480-3
Section 6Electrical System
S-Model Automatic Shut-Off and Restart
When the storage bin is full at the end of a harvest cycle,
the sheet of cubes fails to clear the water curtain and will
hold it open. After the water curtain is held open for 30
seconds, the ice machine shuts of f. To assure the PTCR
has cooled, 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. As the water curtain swings back to
operating position, the bin switch closes and the ice
machine restarts, provided the thr ee-minute delay period
is complete.

Troubleshooting PTCR’s
WHY A GOOD PTCR MAY FAIL
TO START THE COMPRESSOR
The PTCR must be cooled before attempting to start the
compressor , otherwise the high starting torque may not
last long enough.
For example, if the PTCR is properly cooled, say 60°F
(15.6°C) when the compressor starts, it will take .25 to
1.0 seconds before its temperature reaches 260°F
(126.6°C), and current flow is stopped.
If the PTCR is still warm, say 160°F (71.1°C) when the
compressor starts, it will take only .125 to .50 seconds
before its temperature reaches 260°F (126.6°C), and
current flow is stopped. This decreased time may be
insufficient to start the compressor.
A good PTCR may be too hot to operate properly at
start-up because:
•The ice machine’s 3-minute delay has been
overridden. Opening and closing the service
disconnect or cycling the toggle switch from OFF to
ICE will override the delay period.
•The control box temperature is too high. Though
rare, very high air temperatures (intense sunlight,
etc.) can greatly increase the temperature of the
control box and its contents. This may require a
longer off time to allow the PTCR to cool.
•The compressor has short-cycled, or the compressor
overload has opened. Move the toggle switch to OFF
and allow the compressor and PTCR to cool.

After Start-Up
(Current Flows Through Run Capacitor)
Part Number 80-1480-36-33
Electrical SystemSection 6
There are other problems that may cause compressor
start-up failure with a good PTCR in a new, properly
wired ice machine.
•The voltage at the compressor during start-up is too
low.
Manitowoc ice machines are rated at ±10% of
nameplate voltage at compressor start-up. (Ex: An
ice machine rated at 208-230 should have a
compressor start-up voltage between 187 and 253
volts.)
•The compressor discharge and suction pressures
are not matched closely enough or equalized.
These two pressures must be somewhat equalized
before attempting to start the compressor. The
harvest valve (and HPR valve on remotes) energizes
for 45 seconds before the compressor starts, and
remains on 5 seconds after the compressor starts.
Make sure this is occurring and the harvest valve
(and HPR solenoid) coil is functional before
assuming that the PTCR is bad.
CHECKING THE PTCR
Warning
!
Disconnect electrical power to the entire ice
machine at the building electrical disconnect box
before proceeding.
1. Visually inspect the PTCR. Check for signs of
physical damage.
NOTE: The PTCR case temperature may reach 210°F
(100°C) while the compressor is running. This is normal.
Do not change a PTCR just because it is hot.
2. Wait at least 10 minutes for the PTCR to cool to
room temperature.
3. Remove the PTCR from the ice machine.
4. Measure the resistance of the PTCR as shown
below. If the resistance falls outside of the
acceptable range, replace it.

DIAGNOSING START COMPONENTS
If the compressor attempts to start, or hums and trips the
overload protector, check the start components before
replacing the compressor.
Capacitor
Visual evidence of capacitor failure can include a bu lged
terminal end or a ruptured membrane. Do not assume a
capacitor is good if no visual evidence is present. A good
test is to install a known good substitute capacitor . Use a
capacitor tester when checking a suspect capacitor. Clip
the bleed resistor off the capacitor termina ls before
testing.
Relay
The relay has a set of contacts that connect and
disconnect the start capacitor from the compressor start
winding. The contacts on the relay are norma lly closed
(start capacitor in series with the start winding). The
relay senses the voltage generated by the start winding
and opens the contacts as the compressor motor starts.
The contacts remain open until the compressor is deenergized.
Relay Operation Check
1. Disconnect wires from relay terminals.
HARVEST ASSIST AIR COMPRESSOR
Function
The air compressor breaks the vacuum between the
sheet of ice and the evaporator which results in shorter
harvest cycles.
Specifications
115 Volt or 230 Volt - matches the ice machine voltage.
Check Procedure
1. Verify when the air compressor should be running in
the sequence of operation.
2. If the compressor is not running when it should be
check voltage at the control board.
3. If there is no voltage present at the control board,
replace the control board.
4. If there is voltage present at the contro l board check
for voltage at the air compressor connector.
5. If there is no voltage present at the air compressor
connector replace wire.
6. If there is voltage at the air compressor connector,
use a volt ohm meter to verify there is no continuity
through the motor windings then replace motor.
2. Verify the contacts are closed.
Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2.
No continuity indicates open contacts. Replace the
relay.
3. Check the relay coil.
Measure the resistance between terminals 2 and 5.
No resistance indicates an open coil. Replace the
relay.

ICE/OFF/CLEAN TOGGLE SWITCH
Function
The switch is used to place the ice machine in ICE, OFF
or CLEAN mode of operation.
Specifications
Single-pole, single-throw switch. The switch is
connected into a varying low D.C. voltage circuit.
Check Procedure
NOTE: Because of a wide variation in D.C. voltage, it is
not recommended that a volt meter be used to check
toggle switch operation.
1. Inspect the toggle switch for correct wiring.
2. Isolate the toggle switch by disconnecting the Molex
connector.
3. Check continuity across the toggle switch terminals.
Note where the wire numbers are connected to the
switch terminals, or refer to the wiring diagram to
take proper readings.
4. Replace the toggle switch if ohm readings do not
match all three switch settings.

S-Model control boards use a dual voltage transformer.
This means only one control board is needed for both
115V and 208-230V use.
Safety Limits
In addition to standard safety controls, such as the high
pressure cut-out, the control board has built-in safety
limits.
These safety limits protect the ice machine from major
component failures. For more information, see “Safety
Limits” in Section 7.
Inputs
The control board, along with inputs, controls all
electrical components, including the ice machine
sequence of operation. Prior to diagnosing, you must
understand how the inputs affect the control board
operation.
Refer to specific component specifications (inputs),
wiring diagrams and ice machine sequence of operation
sections for details.
As an example, refer to “Ice Thickness Probe” on the
next page for information relating to how the probe and
control board function together.
This section will include items such as:
•How a harvest cycle is initiated
•How the harvest light functions with the probe
•Freeze time lock-in feature
•Maximum freeze time
•Diagnosing ice thickness con tr ol circ uit ry

Section 6Electrical System
Ice Thickness Probe (Harvest Initiation)
HOW THE PROBE WORKS
Manitowoc’s electronic sensing circuit does not rely on
refrigerant pressure, evaporator temperature, water
levels or timers to produce consistent ice formation.
As ice forms on the evaporator, water (not ice) contacts
the ice thickness probe. After the water completes this
circuit across the probe continuously for 6-10 seconds, a
harvest cycle is initiated.

ICE THICKNESS CHECK
The ice thickness probe is factory-set to maintain th e ice
bridge thickness at 1/8" (.32 cm).
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 1/8" (.32 cm) thick.
2. If adjustment is necessary, turn the ice thickness
probe adjustment screw clockwise to increase
bridge thickness, or counterclockwise to decrease
bridge thickness. Set a 1/4” gap between the ice
thickness probe and evaporator as a starting point.
Then adjust to achieve a 1/8” bridge thickness.
NOTE: The starting point before final adjustment is
approximately a 3/16 inch gap.

ICE PROBE LIGHT
This light’s primary function is to be on as water con tact s
the ice thickness probe during the freeze cycle, and
remain on throughout the entire harvest cycle. The light
will flicker as water splashes on the probe.
FREEZE TIME LOCK-IN FEATURE
The ice machine control system incorporates a freeze
time lock-in feature. This prevents the ice machine from
short cycling in and out of harvest.
The control board locks the ice machine in the freeze
cycle for six minutes. If water contacts the ice thickness
probe during these six minutes, the harvest light will
come on (to indicate that water is in contact with the
probe), but the ice machine will stay in the freeze cycle.
After the six minutes are up, a harvest cycle is initiated.
This is important to remember when performing
diagnostic procedures on the ice thickness control
circuitry.
To allow the service technician to initiate a harvest cycle
without delay, this feature is not used on the first cycle
after moving the toggle switch OFF and back to ICE.
MAXIMUM FREEZE TIME
The control system includes a built-in safety which will
automatically cycle the ice machine into harvest after 60
minutes in the freeze cycle.

Ice Thickness Check
Make sure the ice thickness probe wire and the brac ket
do not restrict movement of the probe.
Ice Thickness Probe Cleaning
1. Mix a solution of Manitowoc ice machine cleaner
and water (2 ounces of cleaner to 16 ounces of
water) in a container.
2. Soak ice thickness probe in container of cleaner/
water solution while disassembling and cleaning
water circuit components (soak ice thickness probe
for 10 minutes or longer).
3. Clean all ice thickness probe surfaces including all
plastic parts (do not use abrasives). Verify the ice
thickness probe cavity is clean. Thoroughly rinse ice
thickness probe (including cavity) with clean water,
then dry completely. Incomplete rinsing and
drying of the ice thickness probe can cause
premature harvest.
4. Reinstall ice thickness probe, then sanitize all ice
machine and bin/dispenser interior surfaces.

DIAGNOSING ICE THICKNESS CONTROL CIRCUITRY
Ice Machine Does Not Cycle Into Harvest When Water Contacts The Ice Thickness Control Probe
Step 1 Bypass the freeze time lock-in feature by moving the ICE/OFF/CLEAN switch to OFF and back to ICE.
Step 2 Wait until the water starts to flow over the evaporator (freeze cycle).
Step 3 Disconnect the ice thickness control from the control board, then connect a jumper wire from the control
board to any cabinet ground and monitor the harvest light.
Monitoring of Harvest LightCorrection
The harvest light comes on, and 10 seconds later, ice machine
cycles from freeze to harvest.
The harvest light comes on but the ice machine stays in the
freeze sequence.
The harvest light does not come on.The control board is causing the malfunction.
The ice thickness probe is causing the malfunction.
The control circuitry is functioning properly. The ice machine is
in a six-minute freeze time lock-in (verify step 1 of this
procedure was followed correctly).
