Water
The quality of the water supplied to the ice machine
will have an impact on the time between cleanings
and ultimately on the life of the product. Water can
contain impurities either in suspension or in solution.
Suspended solids can be ltered out. In solution
or dissolved solids cannot be ltered, they must be
diluted or treated. Water lters are recommended
to remove suspended solids. Some lters have
treatment in them for dissolved solids. Check with a
water treatment service for a recommendation.
RO water. This machine can be supplied with Reverse
Osmosis water, but the water conductivity must be no
less than 10 microSiemens/cm.
Potential for Airborne Contamination
Installing an ice machine near a source of yeast
or similar material can result in the need for more
frequent sanitation cleanings due to the tendency of
these materials to contaminate the machine.
Most water lters remove chlorine from the water
supply to the machine which contributes to this
situation. Testing has shown that using a lter that
does not remove chlorine, such as the Scotsman
Aqua Patrol, will greatly improve this situation, while
the ice making process itself will remove the chlorine
from the ice, resulting in no taste or odor impact.
Additionally, devices intended to enhance ice machine
sanitation, such as the Scotsman Aqua Bullet, can
be placed in the machine to keep it cleaner between
manual cleanings.
Water Purge
Cube ice machines use more water than what ends
up in the bin as ice. While most water is used during
ice making, a portion is designed to be drained out
every cycle to reduce the amount of hard water scale
in the machine. That’s known as water purge, and an
effective purge can increase the time between needed
water system cleaning. In addition, this product is
designed to automatically vary the amount of water
purged based on the purity of the water supplied to
it. The water purge rate can also be set manually.
Adjustments of purge due to local water conditions
are not covered by warranty.

Remote Condenser Models - User Manual
Remote Condenser Location
Use the following for planning the placement of the
condenser relative to the ice machine
Location Limits - condenser location must not exceed
ANY of the following limits:
• Maximum rise from the ice machine to the
condenser is 35 physical feet
• Maximum drop from the ice machine to the
condenser is 15 physical feet
• Physical line set maximum length is 100 feet.
• Calculated line set length maximum is 150.
Calculation Formula:
• Drop = dd x 6.6 (dd = distance in feet)
• Rise = rd x 1.7 (rd = distance in feet)
• Horizontal Run = hd x 1 (hd = distance in feet)
• Calculation: Drop(s) + Rise(s) + Horizontal Run =
dd+rd+hd = Calculated Line Length
Congurations that do NOT meet these requirements
must receive prior written authorization from
Scotsman.
Do NOT:
Route a line set that rises, then falls, then rises.
Route a line set that falls, then rises, then falls.
Calculation Example 1:
The condenser is to be located 5 feet below the ice
machine and then 20 feet away horizontally.
5 feet x 6.6 = 33. 33 + 20 = 53. This location would be
acceptable
Calculation Example 2:
The condenser is to be located 35 feet above and
then 100 feet away horizontally. 35 x 1.7 = 59.5.
59.5 +100 = 159.5. 159.5 is greater than the 150
maximum and is NOT acceptable.
Operating a machine with an unacceptable
conguration is misuse and will void the warranty.

Precharged Line Routing
Do not connect the precharged tubing until all routing
and forming of the tubing is complete. See the
Coupling Instructions for nal connections.
1. Each set of pre-charged tubing lines contains a 3/8”
diameter liquid line, and a 1/2” diameter discharge
line. Both ends of each line have quick connect
couplings, the end without access valves goes to the
ice maker.
Note: The openings in the building ceiling or wall,
listed in the next step, are the minimum sizes
recommended for passing the refrigerant lines
through.
2. Have the roong contractor cut a minimum hole for
the refrigerant lines of 1 3/4”. Check local codes, a
separate hole may be required for the electrical power
supply to the condenser.
Caution: Do NOT kink the refrigerant
tubing while routing it.
3. Route the refrigerant tubes thru the
roof opening. Follow straight line routing
whenever possible. Excess tubing
may EITHER be coiled up INSIDE the
building OR cut out prior to connection
to the ice maker and condenser.
If the excess tubing is cut out, after rebrazing the tubing must be evacuated
prior to connection to the ice maker or
condenser.
If the excess tubing is to be coiled, spiral
it horizontally to avoid excess trapping in
the lines.
5. Have the roong contractor seal the
holes in the roof per local codes

Coupling Instructions
The couplings on the ends of the pre-charged line
sets are self-sealing when installed properly.
Follow these instructions carefully.
These steps must be performed by an EPA Certied
Type II or higher technician.
Initial Connections
1. Remove the protector caps and plugs. Wipe the
seats and threaded surfaces with a clean cloth to
remove any possible foreign matter.
2. Lubricate the inside of the couplings, especially the
threads with refrigerant oil.
Note: As the couplings are tightened, the diaphragms
in the quick connect couplings will begin to be
pierced. As that happens, there will be some
resistance to tightening the swivel nut.
4c. Continue tightening the swivel nut until it bottoms
out or a very denite increase in resistance is felt (no
threads should be showing).
3. Position the ttings on the correct connections on
the condenser and ice machine.
• Liquid
• Discharge
Final Connections:
4a. Begin by tightening the couplings together by
hand until it is certain that the threads are properly
engaged.
4b. Then using two wrenches tighten the coupling
until it bottoms out or a denite increase in resistance
is felt.
It is important that ONLY the nut on the pre-charged
tube be turned, or the diaphragms will be torn out
by the piercing knives and they will be loose in the
refrigeration system.
December 2014
Page 11
5. Use a marker or pen to mark a line on the coupling
nut and unit panel. Then tighten the coupling nut an
additional one-quarter turn. The line will show the
amount that the nut turns. Do NOT over tighten.
6. After all connections have been made, and after the
receiver valve has been opened (do not open yet),
check the couplings for leaks.

Plumbing Requirements
All models require connection to cold, potable water.
A hand actuated valve within site of the machine
is required. There is a single 3/8” FPT inlet water
connection.
Water Filters Install a new cartridge if the lters were
used with a prior machine.
All models require drain tubing to be attached to them.
There is a single ¾” FPT drain tting in the back of the
cabinet.
Install new tubing when replacing a prior ice machine,
as the tubing will have been sized for the old model
and might not be correct for this one.
1. Connect water supply to water inlet tting.
Note: This NSF listed model has a 1" anti-back ow
air gap between the potable water inlet tube end and
the highest possible reservoir water level, no back
ow device is required.
2. Connect drain tubing to drain tting.
3. Route the drain tubing to building drain. Follow
local codes for drain air gap.
Use rigid drain tubes and route them separately – do
not Tee into the bin’s drain.
Vent the reservoir drain. A vertical vent at the back of
the drain, extended about 8 – 10” will allow the
gravity drain to empty and also keep any surges
during draining from discharging water.
Horizontal runs of drain tubing need a ¼” per fall per
foot of run for proper draining.
Follow all applicable codes.

Start Up
1. Open the water supply valve.
2. Turn the receiver’s outlet valve to the full open
position.
3. Push and release the lower ON button.
The indicator light will begin to blink F. The purge
valve will open and the water pump will start. The inlet
water valve will open to add water to the reservoir.
After a few seconds the purge valve will close and
the water pump will stop. Water will ow into the
machine until the reservoir is full. The hot gas valve
and harvest assist device will activate and the liquid
line solenoid valve will open, then the compressor
and water pump will start. The display will show a
continuous F. Five seconds later the hot gas valve will
close and the harvest assist device will return to its
standby position. Warm air will be discharged from the
condenser coil.
4. During the Freeze cycle move the curtain and
observe that the SW1 or SW2 light on the control
board blinks On when the curtain moves away
from the evaporator and Off when returned to its
normal position.
Note: Moving the curtain during the Freeze cycle has
no affect on control function, but will cause water to
ow into the cube chute.
6. When the ice has frozen enough, the Ready for
Harvest indicator light will be on steady. After it’s
been on steady for a few seconds Harvest will
begin.
7. The display shows an H.

Cleaning, Sanitation and Maintenance
This ice system requires three types of maintenance:
• Remove the build up of mineral scale from the ice machine’s water system and sensors.
• Sanitize the ice machine’s water system and the ice storage bin or dispenser.
• Clean the remote condenser.
It is the User’s responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition. Without
human intervention, sanitation will not be maintained. Ice machines also require occasional cleaning of their
water systems with a specically designed chemical. This chemical dissolves mineral build up that forms during
the ice making process.
Sanitize the ice storage bin as frequently as local health codes require, and every time the ice machine is
cleaned and sanitized.
The ice machine’s water system should be cleaned and sanitized a minimum of twice per year.

What to do before calling for service
Reasons the machine might shut itself off:
• Lack of water.
• Freeze cycle takes too long.
• Harvest cycle takes too long.
• High discharge temperature.
• Controller self test failure.
Check the following:
1. Has the water supply to the ice machine or
building been shut off? If yes, the ice machine will
automatically restart within 25 minutes after water
begins to ow to it.
2. Has power been shut off to the ice machine? If
yes, the ice machine will automatically restart
when power is restored.
3. Has someone shut the power off to the remote
condenser while the ice machine still had power?
If yes, the ice machine may need to be manually
reset.
4. Is the curtain open because some ice is stuck
under it? If so, remove the ice and the machine
should start in a few minutes.
Note: Curtain can be removed & replaced anytime the
machine is in a standby mode or when it is in a freeze
cycle. However, removal of the curtain during freeze
will result in water owing into the bin. Removal of the
curtain during harvest terminates harvest at that point
and, if left off, will result in the machine shutting off.
To Manually Reset the machine.
• Open the switch access door
• Push and release the Off button.
• Push and release the On button.
To Shut the Machine Off:
Check For
Ice Stuck
