SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

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

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

contamination of ice. To insure continued protection and sanit ation, 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 a round 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 filing into
the dispenser hopper.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Remcor “DB” series of ice dispensers solve your ice and beverage service needs in the sanitary, space
saving, economical way. Designed to be m anual filled with ice from any remote ice making source, these dis­pensers will dispense cubes (up 1-1/4” in size), cubelets and hard-chipped or cracked ice; and in addition, sev­eral flavors of post-mix beverages. “B” units include beverage faucets and are designed to be supplied from syr­up tanks an d carbonator. “BC” units include beverage faucets and a cold plate and are designed to be supplied
direct from syrup tanks and carbonator; with no additional cooling required. The sink can be easily and quickly
removed. The units must never be lifted or moved by the sink. Beverage connections to the cold plate are
made with the lower front panel and sink removed.

ICE MAKER

REMCOR “K” Model Ice/Beverage dispensers are designed to be used with one of several type top mou nt ice­makers. These must be obtained from the appropriate manufacturer.

Check with your REMCOR Sales Coordinator for a list of icemaker kits available. This kit will contain parts and
instructions n ecessary to connect the icemaker to the ice dispenser.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. The ice dispenser must be sealed t o the counter. The template drawing (See Figure 2) indicates openings
which mu st be cut in the counter. Locate the desired position for the dispenser, then mark the outline di­mensions and cut out locations using the template drawings. Cut openings in the counter.

Apply a cont inuous bea d of NSF International (NSF) listed silastic sealant (Dow 732 or equal) approximate­ly 1/4” inside of the unit outline dimensions and around all openings. Do not apply to the sink area until all
plumbing connections are ;made and sink is reinstalled. Then position the unit on the counter within the
outline dimensions. All excess sealant must be wiped away immediately.

2. This work should be done by a qualif ied service person. Wit h the lower panel and sink removed, pull the
beverage lines up through the front opening in the bottom of the unit and make the connections using the
plumbing schematics (See Figures 5, 6, and 7) or inside the lower pan el. Connect the drain line to the sink
line elbow.

3. Route drain line and power cord through the bottom opening. Reinstall the sink on the unit.

4. “K” Models only: Install ice maker according to instructions supplied with kit and manufacturer’s instruction s
supplied with ice maker.

5. Connect the drain tube to an open drain. If addition al piping is required, it must be 3/4” IPS (or equal) and
must pitch downward away from the unit for prop er drainage.

6. Optional: Utilities routing may be made through the rear of the cabinet by removing the plastic rear panel,
plastic pl ug and removing the knockout for the drain hose.

A. 90° sink fittings can be replaced with a straight stainless steel fitting and extra drain tube length added

as requi red.

B. Run po wer cord out of opening next to knock-out. (Use Remcor bushing, part number 51913).

7. Clean the hopper interior (See CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS on pages 10 and 11).

8. Connect the power cord to a 115 volt, 60 cycle, 3-wire grounded receptacle. All electrical wiring must con­form to national and local electrical 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.

GATE RESTRICTOR PLATE

CAUTION: Disconnect power to dispenser before installing, removing or adjusting
restrictor .

FIGURE 1. GATE RESTRICTOR PLATE

ADJUSTMENT

This dispenser is provided with a gate re strictor plate, installed it its highest position. This plate adjusts the rate
of ice flow from the dispenser. In applications using buckets, carafes or other large containers, the plate may b e
removed entirely for maximum ice flow. For glasses and cups, the plate may be adjusted downward to reduce
the flow of ice. the best position depends o n the type of ice being used and the size container and must be
found by trial and error. Adjustment is made by loosening the upper two ice chute retaining nuts, sliding the re­strictor plate to the desired position and re-tightening the nuts.

If the dispenser fails to dispense the ice when operated, check that the hopper has ice in it and that power is
being supplied to the unit. If the problem persists, refer to the trouble shooting guide on page 12
