Other Applications:
Check sales literature for additional information.
Electrical:
Check the nameplate for electrical requirements.
The nameplate is located on the back of the ice
machine. If the information on the nameplate is
different from other published information, go by
the nameplate data.
While the model and
serial number are on
the nameplate, a
serial number plate is
located at the front of
the machine, behind
the left front panel
and to the right of the
purge valve.
Nameplate
Serial Number Plate
Water:
There is no such thing as pure water. All water
contains some impurities. There are two ways
water carries the impurities: suspended and
dissolved. Suspended solids can be filtered out.
Dissolved solids must be diluted or treated. Water
filters are recommended to remove suspended
solids. Some filters have treatment in them for
suspended solids. Check with a water treatment
service for a recommendation.
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 “rinse"
out the water system to keep hard water scale from
clogging up the machine. That water rinse,
combined with water filters, prolongs the times
between needed water system cleaning.
Service Technicians: All models covered here
come set from the factory with at a “Standard”
water rinse. Standard water rinse is designed to be
compatible with typical water conditions. The
ReliaClean™ water system provides an adjustment
method so the amount of water rinsed out of the
machine per cycle can be changed. If the prior ice
machine worked acceptably well with the local
water conditions, leave the machine at the factory
setting. If severe water conditions are present, and
water filters do not solve the problem acceptably,
adjust the machine to use more water. If water
conditions are excellent, adjust the machine to use
less water. See the Adjustments section.
Note: Water use adjustments are customer
convenience adjustments; they are NOT factory
defects and are NOT covered by warranty.

Location & Assembly
CME2006R
Locate the ice machine indoors. A 6 inch minimum
clearance on the back and left sides is required
for the proper operation and service of this
machine.
Locate the remote condenser as close as possible
to the ice machine. See page 11 for details.
Unpacking and Assembly:
Begin with unpacking 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
and attach the legs or casters. Note: Stacked
applications may not use casters.
Return the bin to an upright position. Check the
bin top gasket for gaps and tears, fill any in with
food grade sealant prior to placing the ice
machine on the bin.
Note: If recycling a prior bin, be sure that the bin
top gasket is in good condition or seal the ice
machine to the bin with food grade sealant.
Level the top edge of the bin front to back and
left to right.
Cabinet Panel Removal:
1. Remove the front panels by removing the four
screws connecting the front panels to the machine.
2. Lift up at the front edge and push the top panel
back until it releases from the tabs connecting it to
the back panel.
If the ice machine has not been unpacked, do so
now. Remove the carton from the skid. Remove
shipping straps.
Remove the left side and front panels. Remove all
packaging materials including the compressor
shpping brackets..
After all packing materials have been removed
from the ice machine, lift or hoist the machine onto
the bin. Align the sides and back of the machine
with the sides and back of the bin.
Secure the ice machine to the bin with the two
metal straps and 4 bolts provided.

For The Installer: Remote Condenser
CME2006R
Locate the condenser as near as possible to the
interior location of the ice maker.
Note: The location of the condenser relative to the
ice machine is LIMITED by the specification on the
following page.
Select the best available location, one that
protects the condenser from extremes of dust,
grease and sun.
Meet all applicable building codes.
Roof Attachment
Install and attach the remote condenser to the roof
of the building, using the methods and practices of
construction that conform to the local building
codes, including having a roofing contractor
secure the condenser to the roof.
Precharged Line Routing
If the excess tubing is cut out, after re-brazing 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.
Note: A 36" service loop may be placed behind the
ice machine.
5. Have the roofing contractor seal the holes in the
roof per local codes.

Typical Installation
Remote Condenser Location
CME2006R
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
Configurations 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.
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.

Coupling Instructions
CME2006R
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
Certified 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. Thoroughly lubricate the threads, o-rings,
diaphragms and all internal coupling surfaces with
polyolester refrigerant oil.
Clean and Lubricate Couplings
3. Position the fittings on the correct connections
on the condenser and ice machine.
• The " discharge line (schrader valve end)
5

goes to the remote condenser fitting marked
“discharge line".
• The " liquid line (schrader valve end) goes
3

to the remote condenser fitting marked
“liquid line".
• The " discharge line goes to the ice maker
5
8
fitting marked “discharge line".
• The " liquid line goes to the ice maker
3
8
fitting marked “liquid line".
Final Connections:
4a. Begin to tighten the couplings together by hand.
Continue to turn the swivel nuts by hand until it is
certain that the threads are properly engaged.
4b. Using two wrenches, one to rotate the swivel
nut and one to hold the tubing in place, tighten
each coupling.
Tighten Swivel Nut
It is CRITICAL that ONLY the NUT on the
pre-charged tube be turned, or the diaphragms
will be torn by the piercing knives and become
loose in the refrigeration system causing
severe operational problems.
Note: As the coupling is tightened, the diaphragms
in the quick connect couplings will begin to be
pierced. As that happens, there will be increased
resistance to tightening the swivel nut.
4c. Continue tightening the swivel nut until it
bottoms out or a very definite increase in resistance
is felt (no threads should be showing). Do NOT
overtighten.
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.
Note: The system charge is contained in the
receiver tank of the ice machine. Only
“holding" charges are present in the
“pre-charged" tubing or the condenser.
Rotate Swivel Nut ¼ Turn More
6. After all connections have been made, and after
the liquid line valve has been opened (do not open
yet), check the couplings for leaks.

All models must be installed with the correct wire
size and type per the National Electric Code.
Locate the nameplate on the back of the cabinet
and find the numbers for Voltage, Phase,
Minimum Circuit Ampacity and Maximum Fuse
Size. Either fuses or HACR type circuit breakers
may be used.
The ice maker is designed to operate on its own
electrical circuit and must be individually fused.
Voltage variation must not exceed the limits listed
on page 2.
The remote condenser is designed to be powered
from the ice machine. A separate knockout hole
has been provided in the ice maker electrical
junction box.

Note: When replacing a prior ice machine, do not
take a short cut and reuse the old inlet and drain
system. INSTALL A NEW SYSTEM.
Supply:
3
All models have 1 water supply connection, a
⁄8"
male flare at the back of the cabinet. Connect to
cold potable water that has adequate pressure.
Note: Using water supply tubing smaller than3⁄8"
will cause severe operational issues.
Water Filters:
The water filters must flow at least 2.7 GPM or they
will cause severe operational issues. Check with
the filter manufacturer. When replacing a prior ice
machine, do NOT assume that the water flow
capacity of the filter will be adequate.
All Drain Tubing Material must be RIGID.
Flexible tubing will eventually cause a
restricted drain.
Drain:
All models have 1 gravity drain connection, a
3
⁄4"
FPT fitting at the back of the cabinet. Use only
RIGID TUBING. Flexible tubing may be easily
kinked or become cracked.
The drain tube must be vented at the back of the
cabinet. Use an 18" high vent.
The ice storage bin will have a drain out the back
or base, depending upon the model.
The drain for the ice machine and the ice storage
bin must be SEPARATE or the ice machine’s drain
water may run into the bin and MELT THE ICE.
Insulation is recommended for the ice machine
reservoir and bin drains.
