SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Always disconnect power to the dispenser before servicing or cleaning.
Never place hands inside of hopper or gate area without disconnecting power to the dispenser. Agitator rotation

occurs automatically when the dispenser is energized!
This ice dispenser has been specifically designed to provide protection against personal injury and eliminates

contamination of ice. To ensure continued protection and sanitation, observe the following:

ALWAYS be sure the removable lid is properly installed to prevent unautho­rized access to the hopper interior and possible contamination of ice.

ALWAYS be sure the upper and lower front panels are securely fastened.
ALWAYS keep area around the dispenser clean of ice cubes.

CAUTION: Dispenser cannot be used with crushed or flaked ice.
Use of bagged ice, which has frozen into large chunks, can void warranty . The dispenser

agitator is not designed to be an ice crusher. Use of large chunks of ice which “jam up”
inside the hopper will cause failure of the agitator motor and damage to the hopper. If bagged ice
is used, it must be carefully and completely broken into small, cube-sized pieces before filling into
the dispenser hopper.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The 3030 series of ice dispensers solve ice and beverage service needs in the sanitary , space saving, economi­cal way . Designed to be manual filled with ice from any remote ice-making source, these dispensers will dis­pense cubes (up to 1-1/4? in size), cubelets and hard-chipped or cracked ice; and in addition, several flavors of
post-mix beverages. “B” models contain beverage faucets only and must be supplied with cold product from
any remote cold plate or refrigerated soda factory .

“BC” units include faucets and cold plates and are designed to be supplied directly from syrup tanks and carbo­nator, with no additional cooling required.

IMPORTANT: For dispensing Scotsman “pellet” style ice (Model MH750 Ice makers), REMCORâ part
number 27065 Ice Diverter must be installed on the dispenser. (See INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Figure 2).

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: This equipment must be installed with adequate backflow protection to comply with federal,

state, and local codes.

Note: Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to a potable water supply shall be sized,
installed and maintained according to Federal, State and Local Laws.

1. Locate the dispenser indoors on a level counter top. Unpack the four (4) legs and install them into the
threaded holes provided in the bottom of the unit. The installer must provide flexibility in the product and
utility lines to permit shifting the position of the dispenser sufficiently to clean the area beneath it.

2. Utilities: DB150 Model - The electrical power cord and dispenser drain (3/4 FPT) are located at the rear of
the unit. DB150 -B, -BC Model - All utilities are routed out the bottom of the unit. See “Mounting Template”
Figure 5 for locating the required clearance holes in the counter for these utility lines.

3. Connect the drain tube to an open drain. For DB150 models, the drain line size must be 3/4? IPS (or equal)
and must continuously pitch downward away from the unit and contain no “traps” or improper drainage will
result.

SINK DRAIN ASSEMBLY

-B, -BC MODELS

A. Use tube, clamp and insulation provided to assemble drain.
B. To assure proper drainage, do not allow “trap” to form in drain line. Be sure drain line runs flat with

bottom of dispenser. (See figure below.)

4. “-B”, “-BC” models: connect the beverage system product lines as indicated in “B” and “BC” units, page
NO TAG. This work should be done by a qualified serviceperson. Note that the hoses are marked with
numbers 1 through 6 for syrup connections and “CW” for carbonated water connection.

5. Clean the hopper interior (see CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS).
