FOR THE INSTALLER
The FM2402R is designed to fit the
following Scotsman storage bins:
••B90 and extentions, with bin top
KBT18.
••BH800 no bin top needed.
••BH900 using bin top KBT14.
When installing a new system,
check to be sure that you have
everything you need before
beginning:
••Correct Bin
••Correct Ice Machine
••Correct Bin Top
••All kits, legs, and information
required for the specific job.
There are two separate ice making
and refrigeration systems in this
model. The liquid and discharge
lines from each system must go to
separate circuits in one remote
condenser (RC1222).

Installation Limitations:
This ice system is designed to be installed indoors,
in a controlled environment:
Min Max
0
Air Temperature 50
(Not including the remote condenser)
Water Temperature 40
Water Pressure 20 PSIG 80 PSIG
Voltage -5% +10%
(Compared to the nameplate)
Operating the machine outside of the limitations is
misuse and can void the warranty.
Water Limitations:
An ice machine is a food manufacturing plant; it
takes a raw material, water, and turns it into a food
product, ice. The purity of the water is very
important in obtaining pure ice and in maximizing
product life. This is not intended as a complete
resource for water related questions, but it does
offer these general recommendations:
1. Check with a water treatment specialist for a
water test, and recommendations regarding filters
and treatment.
2. In most cases, the water used to make ice
should be filtered or treated, depending upon the
water.
There is no one type of water filter that
will be effective in all situations.
water test is important.

FOR THE INSTALLER
Typical Storage Bin with Extension and Bin Top
FM2402R
Location
After uncrating and inspection, the unit is ready for
installation. It is important that the machine be
installed in a location where it has enough space
around it to be accessible for service, usually a
minimum of 6 inches. Try to avoid hot, dirty and
crowded locations. Be sure that the location for the
machine is within the limitations described on page
3.
Storage Bin
Tip the storage bin on its back, using parts of the
carton to protect the exterior finish. Install the legs
into the threaded holes in the bottom of the bin.
Turn the leg levelers all the way in preparation for
leveling later. Return the bin to the upright position,
remove paper covering the bin gasket.
Install the bin top according to the directions with
the bin top.
Note: Do not push bin into position, but lift it there.
Pushing a bin, especially one with ice in it, can
cause damage to the legs and the leg mounts.
Ice Maker
The machine is heavy, so the use of a mechanical
lift is recommended for lifting the machine high
enough to install on top of the bin. After the unit is
placed on the bin, line it up so it is even with the
back side. Secure the machine to the bin with the
hardware provided with the machine.
Remove the front panel and remove any shipping
blocks.
Note: Be sure to allow a 6" minimum space
above the top of the machine for service.

INSIDE
BUILDING
FM2402R
FOR THE INSTALLER: Remote Condenser
Location
Limited to a 40 foot or a 25 foot length of
precharged refrigerant tubing connecting the
icemaker to the remote condenser. The
condenser must be above or level with the
icemaker.
Select the best available location, protecting the
condenser from extremes of dirt, dust, and sun.
Meet all applicable building codes. Usually the
services of a licensed electrician are required.
Roof Attachment
1. 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.
2. Have an electrician connect the remote
condenser fan motor to the icemaker, using the
junction box at the back of the icemaker.
PRECHARGED LINE ROUTING
CAUTION
Do not connect precharged tubing until all routing
and forming of the tubing is complete. See the
coupling instructions for connecting instructions.
4. Spiral the excess length of pre charged tubing
inside the building. Use a horizontal spiral (as
illustrated) to avoid any traps in the lines.
5. Have the roofing contractor seal the holes in
the roof per local codes.
Note: Tight spiral shown is not required, bend
tubing to a practical radius.
Refrigerant charge is in the ice maker. Only a
holding charge is in the "pre-charged" lines.
1. Each set of precharged refrigerant lines (either
25 foot or 40 foot) consists of a 3/8 inch diameter
liquid line and a 1/2 inch diameter discharge line.
Both ends of each line have quick connect
couplings, one end has a schrader valve
connection, that end goes to the condenser.
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 1 3/4 inch. Check local
codes, a separate hole may be required for the
electrical power to the condenser.
CAUTION
DO NOT KINK OR CRIMP REFRIGERANT
TUBING WHEN INSTALLING IT.
3. Route the refrigerant lines through the roof
opening.
Follow straight line routing whenever possible.
Any excess tubing MUST be retained within the
building.

FOR THE INSTALLER: Precharged Lines
COUPLING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
The couplings on the sets of precharged lines are
self sealing when installed properly. Carefully
follow the instructions:
1. Remove the protector caps and plugs. Wipe the
seats and threaded surfaces with a clean cloth to
be certain that no foreign matter remains on them.
2. Lubricate the inside of the couplings, especially
the O-Rings with refrigerant oil.
••Connect the 3/8 inch liquid line (schrader valve
end) to the remote condenser fitting marked
"liquid line".
••Connect the other end of the liquid line to the
icemaker fitting marked "liquid line."
••Connect the 1/2 inch discharge line (schrader
valve end) to the remote condenser fitting
marked "discharge line".
••Connect the other end of the liquid line to the
icemaker fitting marked "discharge line".
3. Begin tightening the couplings together by
hand, then using two wrenches (it is important that
ONLY the nut on the precharged lines be turned,
the other parts of the couplings must NOT be
allowed to turn or the process will tear out the
diaphragms and they will be loose in the
refrigeration system) tighten the coupling until it
bottoms out or a definite increase in resistance is
felt.
4. Using a marker or pen, mark a line lengthwise
from the coupling union nut to the bulkhead. Then
tighten the coupling and additional 1/4 turn. As the
nut turns, the line will show when 1/4 turn is made.
5. After all connections are made, and after the
king valve has been opened, check the couplings
for leaks.

The recommended water supply is

tubing, connect to the 3/8" male flare
at the back of the cabinet. Install a
hand valve near the machine to
control the water supply.
Drains
There is one 3/4" FPT drain at the
back of the cabinet, the drain line is of
the gravity type, and 1/4 inch per foot
fall is an acceptable pitch for the drain
tubing. There should be a vent at the
highest point of the drain line, and the
ideal drain receptacle would be a
trapped and vented floor drain. Use
only 3/4" rigid tubing.
Storage Bin: A separate gravity type
drain needs to be run. Insulation of
this drain line is recommended.

FOR THE ELECTRICIAN
CONFORM TO ALL APPLICABLE CODES
The electrical power to the unit is supplied through
the junction box at the rear of the machine.
Check the nameplate (located on the back panel)
for the voltage requirements, and for the minimum
circuit ampacity. The machine requires a solid
chassis to earth ground wire.
The ice maker should be connected to its own
electrical circuit so it would be individually fused.
Voltage variation must remain within design
limitations, even under starting conditions.
Electrically the remote condenser fan motor is
connected to the icemaker at the contactor

terminals for the compressor and the fan motor
operates whenever the compressor operates.
Electrical connections are made at the junction
box at the back of the icemaker and at the junction
box on the remote condenser.
The remote condenser must be wired to the
icemaker in accordance with local and national
electrical codes with a minimum of 18 Awg. wire
with an ground bonding wire connected to the
ground screws provided in both the condenser and
machine field wiring boxes. All outdoor wiring
must be in rain proof conduit.
All external wiring must conform to national,
state, and local electrical codes. The use of
a licensed electrician is required to perform
the electrical installation.
