Installation: Product Specications
Location Limitations
This ice system is made up of three parts, the ice
making machine, or head; the remote condenser; and
the interconnecting tubing. The ice making machine
must be installed indoors, in a controlled environment.
Space must be provided near the machine for service
access. The remote condenser may be installed
above or below the ice machine, per the limits stated
later in this manual. The remote condenser may
be installed outdoors within the temperature limits
listed below. The interconnecting tubing must be
installed per the directions stated in this manual,
and the amount of tubing exposed to uncontrolled
temperatures must be minimized.
Space Limitations
Although the machine will function with no clearance
to the top and sides, some space must be allowed
for service access. Building the machine in with no
access will cause higher service cost, in many cases
this extra cost may not be covered by warranty.
The warranty statement for this product is provided
separately from this manual. Refer to it for applicable
coverage. In general warranty covers defects
in material and workmanship. It does not cover
maintenance, corrections to installations, or situations
when the ice machine is operated in circumstances
that exceed the limitations printed above.
Product Information
The machine is a specialized version of a modular
cuber. A modular cuber does not include any ice
storage, it is designed to be placed onto an ice
storage bin. Many installations only require the
matching bin, but some may need an adapter to
be placed between the ice machine and the bin.
Additionally, the machine must be connected to the
correct remote condenser and use the correct precharged tubing. The machine is supplied with a full
refrigerant charge, eld charging is not required.
This product cannot be stacked. See the chart for
application information.

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. There are
two ways water can contain impurities: 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.
Scotsman lters:
A triple head lter is recommended. Either the
Scotsman SSM3 taste and odor lter system, or the
ADS-AP3 AquaPatrol system.
Water lters are recommended to remove suspended
solids. Some lters have treatment in them for
suspended 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
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.
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.

Panel Removal
1. Locate and loosen the two screws at the front
edge of the top panel.
2. Pull the front panel out at the top until it clears the
top panel.
3. Lift the front panel up and off the machine.
4. Remove two screws from the front edge of the top
panel.
5. Lift up the front of the top panel, push it back an
inch, then lift to remove.
6. Locate and loosen the screw holding each side
panel to the base.
7. Pull the side panel forward to release it from the
back panel.
This manual covers several models of remote cubers.
The model number on the ice machine can be found
either on the dataplate, which is on the back panel, or
the serial number tag, which is behind the front panel.
See the illustration for the locations of the dataplate
and the serial number tag.
The remote condenser has a separate model and
serial number. Its model and serial number is on the
dataplate on the condenser near the quick connect
ttings.

Panel Removal
Check the bin top gasket for tears or gaps. If recycling
an older bin, replace the gasket or repair with food
grade sealant prior to placing the ice machine on the
bin.
Install the bin top adapter, if one is required for the
application.
If the ice machine has not been unpacked, do so
now. Remove the carton from the skid. Cut away any
shipping strapping. Lift the ice machine off the skid
directly onto the bin.
Note: The machine is heavy. Use a mechanical lift if
necessary.
Secure the ice machine to the bin with the hardware
provided (two metal straps and four bolts).
Begin with the ice storage bin. Remove the carton,
and, using part of the carton as a cushion, tip the bin
on its back to remove the skid. Attach the supplied
legs or optional casters. Return the bin to a normal,
upright position.
