Operation

Baffle Operation

The baffle controls the flow of ice into lower door assembly area for removal with either a scoop or shovel. The baffle can also be adjusted and locked at one of several levels to accommodate flow characteristics of different types of ice.

Bin is shipped with the baffle in full down position. The baffle can be raised and locked in higher position for better flow or when more access is needed.

FOR MORE ICE

If more ice is needed in lower door area:

1. Use full-length handle at top of the baffle to gently lift and jiggle the baffle to encourage ice to flow into access area of the bin. (Loose ice will cascade into lower door area.)

2. When adequate ice has flowed, push the baffle back down.

Using Ice Probe Tool Accessory

Ice probe tool is an optional accessory. If your bin has been ordered with ice probe tool accessory, mount probe for easy access on either side of bin in bracket provided.

If there is adequate ice in bin but lower door area is not filled with ice, it may be that ice has congealed in bin and cannot flow. This can often be remedied by quickly jiggling the baffle several times (see preceding, Baffle Operation). If problem continues, probe tool can be inserted through rectangular openings in the baffle and agitated back and forth to break up congealed ice mass.

FOR MORE ACCESS

When more access is needed or to encourage flow of less “slippery” ice:

1. Lock gate at higher level by pulling up and holding the baffle at correct level, and pushing tapered end of catch into nearest hole in gate (catch will automatically release when you pull up).

2. To release catch, pull up on the baffle.

Use probe tool only as described above. To avoid possible injury, keep head and face clear of lower door area and tool at all times. Do not use probe tool for other purposes.
