INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS
1. With the unit upright, carefully remove the shipping crate. Inspect for shipping damage and report any such
damage to the shipper immediately.
2. Unlock and open the hinged service door on upper left side panel.
3. Remove shipping tape from ice drop cover, storage hopper cover, and agitator in storage hopper.
INSTALLING ICE MAKER UNIT
NOTE: An IMI Cornelius model 81COR01PS FILTER MUST BE INSTALLED in the water supply line to
the ice maker. Failure to do so may result in poor quality ice, low production output, and may cause
premature failure of the ice maker evaporator and void the extended evaporator warranty.
This ice maker is provided with a stainless steel evaporator designed to last the life of the product.
Some of the chemicals in treated and untreated water, specifically chlorine (sulfide), have the ability to
attack stainless steel and cause premature failure. An initial investment in proper water treatment will
pay for itself in increased production, quality, and long life of the product.
1. Location.
Locate the ice maker/dispenser indoors in a well-ventilated area. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and or
heat caused by radiation. Ambient room temperature must be in the range of 60° F to 90° F. Do not install
unit in an enclosed area where heat build up could be a problem. For proper air flow for the refrigeration
system, allow a 6 inch clearance at the back of the unit and 12 inch clearance at the right side of the right
side panel.
Consult Figure 1 for utility connections. Consult Figure 3 for dimensions for mounting unit to the counter
with the hardware provided. NOTE: The unit must be level for proper operation.
The unit must be sealed to the counter. The mounting template drawing (see Figure 3) indicates the openings which must be cut in the counter. Locate the desired position for the unit, then mark the outline dimensions and cut-out locations using the template drawing. Cut openings in the counter. NOTE: The unit must
never be lifted or moved by the sink.
Apply a continuous bead of NSF International approved silastic sealant (Dow 732 or equal) approximately
1/4 inch inside of the unit outline dimensions and around all openings. Then, position the unit on the counter within the outline dimensions. All excess sealant must be wiped up immediately.
2. Plumbing.
Connect the ice maker to a cold potable water source suitable for drinking. Do not install unit on a water
softener line. It is recommended that a hand shut-off valve, strainer, and a back flow preventer be used on
the incoming supply line. A 3/8 inch outside diameter compression tube is provided at the back of the unit
for the water supply hook up (see Figure 2). For proper operation, the incoming water supply pressure
must be in the range of 30–120 PSIG. Install a pressure regulating valve if above this range.

IMPORTANT: To ensure proper ice maker operation and also to reduce the frequency of water-related
service problems, a water filter should be installed. Remcor recommends the use of IMI Cornelius filter,
model number 81COR01PS.
For specific recommendations on these filter systems for your local conditions, consult with a distributor in your
area or contact the filter manufacturer.
Connect two (2) 3/4 inch (or equal) drain lines to the 3/4 inch threaded drain connections at the lower rear of the
unit. These lines must pitch downward to an open drain and must contain no traps or improper drainage
will result.
NOTE: In areas where consistently warm water temperatures are encountered, the use of a Remcor PreCooler in the water line is recommended to maximize the ice production of this unit. Contact Remcor
for more information on this product.
3. Electrical.
A 4 X 2 junction box is on the left side of the unit for the supply hook up. Connect the ice maker to it’s own
individual electrical circuit per the National Electric Code and Local Code (see SPECIFICATIONS for circuit
ampacity and fuse size).
IMPORTANT: The wire size must be adequate for the circuit ampacity rating and the supply voltage
must be within range of ± 10 % for proper ice maker operation.

BEVERAGE SYSTEM INSTALLATION
“B” models contain beverage faucets only and must be supplied with cold product from any remote cold plate or
refrigerated soda factory. “BC” units have a built-in cold plate, in addition to the beverage faucets and are
designed to be supplied direct from syrup tanks and carbonator with no additional cooling required.
1. Locate the required openings in the counter top for the beverage lines as shown in Figure 3.
2. For “B” models, carefully pull the beverage tubes through the bottom opening in the unit and through the
clearance opening in the counter.
3. For “BC” models, tube fittings are provided at the rear of the unit on the cold plate for syrup and water line
hook ups.
4. Connect the beverage system product lines as indicated in Figure 4 (“B” units) and Figure 5 (“BC” units).
This work should be done by a qualified service person. Note that the lines are marked with
numbers 1 through 6 for syrup connections and “CW” for the carbonated water connection.
START UP
1. Open the hinged service door. Remove the ice drop cover and storage hopper cover.
2. Turn on water to ice maker.
3. Depress the flush switch to verify that the water dump valve operates and that the water drain lines are
open and not plugged.
WARNING: To prevent possible personal injury, do not place fingers or hand in ice maker
nozzle or hopper with power applied to the unit.
4. Place the “Stop/Run switch in the “Run” position. Observe that the ice maker goes through proper ice making and harvest cycles. If unit malfunctions, consult the Troubleshooting Guide.
NOTE: Due to ice melting loss because of a warm storage hopper, it will take longer to fill the hopper
the first time than when the ice maker has been operating continuously.
5. Depress the vend switch lever. Check that both the gate solenoid and agitator motor are energized simultaneously to lift the gate slide and rotate the agitator in the storage hopper, respectively. If either component
malfunctions, consult the Troubleshooting Guide.
6. For beverage units, start up the beverage system and adjust the faucets to the proper brix. Contact your
local syrup distributor for complete information on the beverage system. For units with built-in cold plate, it
will take approximately one (1) hour from initial machine start-up for cold plate to be at full capacity. On
initial start-up, or after long idle periods with no use, dispense several large cups of ice ( approximately 20
to 30 seconds total dispensing time) to allow ice to fill the cold plate cabinet.
7. The bin thermostat is calibrated at an atmospheric pressure equivalent at 500 feet above sea level. For
locations at higher elevations, it may be necessary to readjust these controls. Consult the
MAINTENANCE/ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES section.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
A temperature sensing control bulb, located in the storage hopper, starts and stops the ice making process in
response to ice level in the hopper. With this ice level control “calling” for ice (hopper ice level is low), ice begins
to form on the stainless steel tubing coils in the evaporator coils until it contacts the ice thickness probe (low
voltage conductivity sensor). At this point, the conductivity probe triggers the harvest timer motor. The harvest
timer contains five (5) cam operated switches which function as detailed in the following
HARVEST CYCLE table.
HARVEST CYCLE
TIME CAM
SWITCH
0–86 seconds #1 Timer motor energized.
1–23±1 second #4 Water dump valve open.
1–35±2 seconds #2 Hot gas solenoid valve open.
37–90 seconds #2 Air pump on.–––Condenser fan motor on.––– Hot gas solenoid
valve closed.
34–59 #3 Harvest motor on.
43–47 #5 Hopper agitator motor operates.
When ice contacts the ice lever control bulb in the storage hopper, the control will shut down the refrigeration
system. If this signal occurs during the harvest cycle, the harvest cycle will be completed before
shutdown occurs.
To dispense ice, push the lever located on the lower front panel. Ice will flow from the ice chute until the
lever is released.
For units with a built-in cold plate, ice will automatically fill the cold plate cabinet. Allow one (1) hour for the cold
plate to reach it’s maximum capacity. Start up the beverage system and adjust the faucets to the proper brix.
Pushing the lever on any faucet will provide beverage of the appropriate flavor.
