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 filtered out. In
solution or dissolved solids cannot be filtered, they
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.
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.
Water pressure limit to water cooled condenser is
150 PSI

Most water filters remove chlorine from the water
supply to the machine which contributes to this
situation. Testing has shown that using a filter that
does not remove chlorine, such as the Scotsman
Aqua Patrol, will greatly improve this situation.
Warranty Information
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 or workmanship. It does not
cover maintenance, corrections to installations, or
situations when the machine is operated in
circumstances that exceed the limitations printed
above.

Air, Water or Remote User Manual
Location:
While the machine will operate satisfactorily within
the listed air and water temperature limits, it will
produce more ice when those temperatures are
nearer the lower limits. Avoid locations that are hot,
dusty, greasy or confined. Air cooled models need
plenty of room air to breathe. Air cooled models
must have at least six inches of space at the back
for air discharge; however, more space will allow
better performance.
Airflow
Air flows into the front of the cabinet and out the
back. The air filters are on the outside of the front
panel and are easily removed for cleaning.
Bin compatibility
All models have the same footprint: 22 inches wide
by 24 inches deep. Confirm available space when
replacing a prior model.
Bin & adapter list:
B222S or B322S – no adapter needed
•
B330P or B530P or B530S – Use KBT27
•
B842S – KBT39
•
B948S – KBT38 for single unit
•
B948S – KBT38-2X for two units side by side
•
BH1100, BH1300 and BH1600 upright bins
•
include filler panels to accommodate a 22
inch wide ice machine. No adapter is
needed.
BH900: Use baffle kit KBBF1 for these models.
Dispenser compatibility
Airflow
Options
Side air flow kits KPFSA223 or KPFSA227 are
available for air cooled models. A filter kit for the
remote condenser is KERCF
Ice is made until it fills the bin enough to block an
infrared light beam inside the base of the machine.
A field installed kit is available to adjust the
maintained ice level lower. The kit number is KVS.
The standard controller has excellent diagnostic
capabilities and communicates to the user through
the AutoAlert light panel, seen through the front
panel. Field installed kits are available that can log
data and provide additional information when the
front panel is removed. The kit numbers are KSBU
and KSB-NU. See page 21.
Only nugget ice models may be used with ice
dispensers. Flaked ice is not dispensable.

Unpacking & Install Prep
Remove the carton from the skid. Check for hidden
freight damage, notify the carrier immediately if any
is found. Retain the carton for the carrier’s
inspection.
The machine is not bolted to the skid. If strapped
remove the strap.
Place on Bin or Dispenser
If reusing an existing bin, be sure that the bin is in
good shape and that the gasket tape on the top is
not torn up. Water leaks, not covered by warranty,
could result from a poor sealing surface. If
installing a remote or a remote low side, a new bin
is recommended due to the high cost to the user of
replacing an old bin when a remote system is on
top.
Install the correct adapter, following the directions
supplied with that adapter.
Panel Removal
1. Locate and loosen the two screws at the front
edge of the top panel.
Hoist the machine onto the adapter.
Note: The machine is heavy! Use of a mechanical
lift is recommended.
Position the machine on the bin or adapter. Secure
with straps from the hardware bag packed with the
machine, or those supplied with the adapter.
Remove any plastic covering the stainless steel
panels.
Note: The standard machine set up includes visible
on and off switches. Those can be covered up by
changing the bezel in the front panel’s trim strip. A
cover-up bezel is included with the hardware bag.
Remove any packaging, such as tape or foam
blocks, that may be near the gear reducer or ice
chute.
Level the bin and ice machine front to back and left
to right by using the bin leg levelers.
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 at the front of the top panel.
Lift up the front of the top panel, push the top panel
back an inch, then lift to remove.

Refrigeration - Remote Condenser Models
Remote condenser models have additional
installation needs.
The correct remote condenser fan and coil must be
connected to the ice making head. Liquid and
discharge tubing connections are on the back of
the ice machine cabinet. Pre-charged tubing kits
are available in several lengths to accommodate
most installations. Order the one that just exceeds
the length needed for the installation.
The kit numbers are:

•
RTE25
•
RTE40
•
RTE75

Reference: Electrical Detail, air or water cooled.
There are limits as to how far away from the ice
machine and where the remote condenser can be
located. See page 10 for those limits.
The correct condenser must be used.

Do not reuse condenser coils contaminated with
mineral oil (used with R-502 for example). They will
cause compressor failure and will void the
warranty.
A headmaster is required for all remote condenser
systems. Prior condensers did not have a
headmaster. New head / prior condenser retrofits
can use headmaster kit KPFHM.
Use of non-Scotsman condensers requires
pre-approval from Scotsman Engineering.

Remote Condenser Location - Limits
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
•
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.
Configurations that do NOT meet these
requirements must receive prior written
authorization from Scotsman to maintain warranty.

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 roofing contractor cut a minimum hole
for the refrigerant lines of 2”. 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 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.
5. Have the roofing contractor seal the holes in the
roof per local codes

Coupling Instructions - Remote Only
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. Lubricate the inside of the couplings, especially
the O-rings, with refrigerant oil. Oil packets are
supplied with Scotsman line sets.
3. Position the fittings on the correct connections
on the condenser and ice machine.

loose in the refrigeration system. 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 definite increase in
resistance is felt (no threads should be showing).
Critical Step!!!!!
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.
4b. Then using two wrenches tighten the coupling
until it bottoms out or a definite 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

Maintenance: Sensors
The control that senses bin full and empty is a
photo-electric eye, therefore it must be kept clean
so it can “see”. At least twice a year, remove the
ice level sensors from the base of the ice chute,
and wipe the inside clean, as illustrated.
1. Remove front panel.
2. Pull photo eye holders forward to release them.
3. Wipe clean as needed. Do not scratch the
photo-eye portion.
4. Return the eye holders to their normal positions
and return the front panel to its original position.
Note: Eye holders must be mounted properly. They
snap into a centered position and are properly
located when the wires are routed to the back and
the left eye is the one with 2 wires at the connector.
The ice machine senses water by a probe located
near the water reservoir. At least twice a year, the
probe should be wiped clean of mineral build-up.
Probes
1. Shut off the water supply.
2. Remove front panel.
3. Remove the hose from the water sensor, use a
hose clamp pliers for this.

Options
Vari-Smart
Optional adjustable ice level control (KVS)
When this option is present there is an adjustment
post and an additional indicator light to the right of
the four indicator lights mentioned earlier.
KVS
The ultrasonic ice level control allows the user to
control the point that the ice machine will stop
making ice before the bin or dispenser is full.
Reasons for this include:
Seasonal changes in ice used
•
Planning to sanitize the bin
•
Faster turnover for fresher ice
•
• Certain dispenser applications where
maximum ice level is not desired
Use of adjustable ice level control
There are several positions the ice level can be set
to, including Off (knob and label indicators lined
up), where it fills the bin until the standard bin
control shuts the machine off. See the kit’s
instructions for complete details.
Rotate the adjustment post to the desired ice level.
The machine will fill up to that level and when it
shuts off the indicator light next to the adjustment
post will be On.
Note: The maximum fill position
is when the arrow on the knob
points to the arrow on the label.
Dispenser applications Nugget ice only:
Set the adjustment knob to
either the first or second
position CW after the
maximum fill position.
Smart-Board
Optional Advanced Feature Board (KSBU)
When this option is present there is an additional
display panel in the area below the main control
board. It is not visible when the front panel is on.
The Advanced Feature Board’s features include:
•
Seven day programmable ice level setting
when used with the optional KVS ultrasonic
ice level control
•
Recording of machine operation
•
Recall of malfunctions with the time they
occurred.
Optional Remote Lock Out (KSL)
This add on allows remote on-off control of the
machine, and is generally installed by leasing
companies. When the board has been remotely
locked out and shut off it must be reset by the
person or company that locked it out. It cannot be
reset on site.

What to do before calling for service
Normal Operation:
Ice
The machine will make either flaked or nugget ice,
depending upon the model. The ice will be
produced continuously until the bin is full. It is
normal for a few drops of water to occasionally fall
with the ice.
Heat
On remote models most heat is exhausted at the
remote condenser, the ice machine should not
generate significant heat. Water cooled models
also put most of the heat from ice making into the
discharge water. Air cooled models will generate
heat, and it will be discharged into the room.
Noise
Does not make ice
•
Auger motor overload
•
High discharge pressure.
•
Low refrigeration system pressure.
•
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 minutes after water
begins to flow 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.
The ice machine will make noise when it is in ice
making mode. The compressor and gear reducer
will produce sound. Air cooled models will add fan
noise. Some ice making noise could also occur.
These noises are all normal for this machine.
