G. Lock the two machines together. The front of the machines should be locked by using the locking plate. The
locking plate is supplied with the kit and is 2 3/8” x 3” in size with three holes 7/32” in diameter. Three existing
screws to be removed from machine cornerpost and locking plate applied. The rear of the machines should be
locked by using the two 1/4-20 x 5/8” long bolts, lock washers, and hex nuts (supplied with kit). The bolts should
be mounted into the 5/16” diameter holes in the bottom channel of the top machine and the top rail of the bottom
machine.
H. If your ice machines have curtain limiter brackets, they should be removed from both the top and bottom
machines.
4. INSTALLATION OF ICE CHUTES (BACK):

sump trough of the top machine. Use top back brackets and curtain stop to mount.
NOTE: Check to make sure the sump trough is centered below the evaporators. If not, adjust by loosening the
wing nuts, which hold the sum trough to the machine base. Retighten after adjusting.
B. Install the lower back ice chute (back chute has insulation) to upper ice chute with studs on upper chute going
through slotted holes of lower chute.

chute.
D. Position stabilizer bracket from kit over weldstuds of upper ice chute, as shown in Illustration 3.
E. Secure the bottom of chute with the bottom back mounting brackets to base channel of lower machine with screws

D. Secure the bottom of chute with the bottom front mounting bracket to base channel of lower machine with screws
provided in kit.
E. Locate the support angle and secure with the nut and bolt from kit.
NOTE: After chutes, brackets, and support angles are in place, make final tightening up on screws and wing nuts.
