Section 3
Operation
Ice Making Sequence of Operation
INITIAL STARTUP OR STARTUP AFTER AUTOMATIC
SHUTOFF
1. Pressure Equalization
Before the compressor starts, the hot gas valve is energized
for 15 seconds to equalize pressures during the initial
refrigeration system start-up.
2. Refrigeration System Start-up
The compressor starts after the 15-second pressure
equalization, and remains on throughout the entire Freeze
and Harvest Sequences. The hot gas valve remains on for 5
seconds during initial compressor start-up 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 relay. As a result, any time the relay
coil is energized, the compressor and fan motor are supplied
with power.)
FREEZE SEQUENCE
3. Prechill
The compressor is on for 30 seconds prior to water flow to
Prechill the evaporator.
4. Freeze
The water pump starts after the 30-second Prechill. An even
flow of water is directed across the evaporator and into each
cube cell, where it freezes.
When sufficient ice has formed, the water flow (not the ice)
contacts the ice thickness probe. After approximately 7
seconds of continual water contact, the Harvest Sequence is
initiated. The ice machine cannot initiate a Harvest Sequence
until a 6-minute freeze time has been surpassed.
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 contacts the ice damper,
opening the 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 (steps 3 - 4).
AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF
6. Automatic Shut-off
When the storage bin is full at the end of a Harvest
Sequence, the sheet of cubes fails to clear the ice damper
and will hold it down. After the ice damper is held open for 7
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 damper. As the ice damper swings back to the operating
position, the bin switch re-closes and the ice machine
restarts (steps 1 - 2), provided the 3-minute delay period is
complete.
HARVEST SEQUENCE
5. Harvest
The water pump de-energizes, stopping flow over the
evaporator. The rising level of water in the sump trough
diverts water out of the overflow tube, purging excess
minerals from the sump trough. The hot gas valve also opens
to divert hot refrigerant gas into the evaporator.

Operation Section 3
Operational Checks
GENERAL
Your Manitowoc ice machine was factory-operated and
adjusted before shipment. Normally, a newly installed ice
machine does not require any adjustment.
To ensure proper operation, always follow these Operational
Checks when starting the ice machine:
• for the first time
• after a prolonged out of service period
• after cleaning and sanitizing
Routine adjustments and maintenance procedures outlined
in this manual are not covered by the warranty.
SIPHON SYSTEM
To reduce mineral build-up and cleaning frequency, the water
in the sump trough must be purged during each harvest
cycle.
When the water pump de-energizes, the level in the water
trough rises above the standpipe, starting a siphon action.
The siphon action stops when the water level in the sump
trough drops. When the siphon action stops, the float valve
refills the water trough to the correct level.
Siphon System Check
Follow steps 1 through 6 under water level check.

The float valve is factory-set for the proper water level. If
adjustments are necessary:
1. Verify the ice machine is level (see page 9).
2. Remove the siphon cap from the standpipe.
3. Place the main ON/OFF/WASH toggle switch to the ON
position, and wait until the float valve stops adding
water.
4. Adjust the water level to (1/4" to 3/8" [6.3 to 9.5 mm]
below the standpipe) the line in the water trough.
5. Loosen the two screws on the float valve bracket.
6. Raise or lower the float valve assembly as necessary,
then tighten the screws.
7. Move the main ON/OFF/WASH toggle switch to the OFF
position. The water level in the trough will rise above the
standpipe and run down the drain.
8. Replace the siphon cap on the standpipe, and verify
water level and siphon action by repeating steps 3
through 5.
ICE BRIDGE THICKNESS CHECK
NOTE: During shipping and installation, the ice thickness
probe may shift, requiring further adjustment to achieve the
rated energy efficiency and production. The ice weight per
cycle must be within the minimum and maximum for your ice
machine series. Capture and weigh the ice from the second
freeze/harvest cycle. The target weight is the middle of the
minimum and maximum weight in the chart below.

Ice Weight from One Cycle
The ice thickness probe is factory-set to maintain the ice
bridge thickness at 1/8" (3 mm).
1. Inspect the bridge connecting the cubes. It should be
about 1/8" (3 mm) thick.
2. If adjustment is necessary, turn the ice thickness probe
adjustment screw clockwise to increase bridge thickness,
or counterclockwise to decrease bridge thickness.
NOTE: Turning the adjustment 1/3 of a turn will change the
ice thickness about 1/16" (1.5 mm).

Step 21 Replace all removed components.
Cleaning the Condenser
Warning
n
Disconnect electric power to the ice machine at the
electric service switch 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.
Caution
,
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.
This helps keep the condenser clean. Clean the filter
with a mild soap and water solution.
2. Clean the outside of the condenser with a soft brush
or a vacuum with a brush attachment. Clean from top
to bottom, not side to side. 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: Blow compressed air
through the condenser fins from the inside. Be careful
not to bend the fan blades.
4. Use a commercial condenser coil cleaner. Follow the
directions and cautions supplied with the cleaner.
5. Straighten any bent condenser fins with a fin comb.
6. Carefully wipe off the fan blades and motor with a soft
cloth. Do not bend the fan blades. If the fan blades are
excessively dirty, wash with warm, soapy water and rinse
thoroughly.
Step 22 Reapply power and water to the ice machine and
place the toggle switch in the ON position.
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the area around the ice machine as often as necessary
to maintain cleanliness and efficient operation.
Sponge any dust and dirt off the outside of the ice machine
with mild soap and water. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.
A commercial grade stainless steel cleaner/polish can be
used as necessary.
Part Number: 040006020 Rev. 01 09/18 21
If you are cleaning the condenser fan blades with water,
cover the fan motor to prevent water damage.
