This ice machine is the result of years of experience
with aked and nugget ice machines. The latest in
electronics has been coupled with the time tested
Scotsman aked ice system to provide reliable ice
making and the features needed by customers. The
features include easily accessible air lters, simple
conductivity water level sensing, evaporator clearing
at shut down, photo-eye sensing bin control and the
controlled environment. Operation outside the limits
listed here will void the warranty.

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.
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
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 conned. 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.
Airow
Air ows into the front of the cabinet and out the back.
The air lters 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. Conrm available space when
replacing a prior model.

technician
The bearing in the breaker should be checked at least
two times per year.
Check the bearing by:
1. Removing the bail clamp and ice chute cover
Bail Clamp
Breaker
Cover
2. Unscrewing the ice sweep
3. Removing the water shed & unscrewing the
breaker cover (left hand threads).
Inspect the top of the bearing. When new the grease
is white, over time some gray will appear over the
rollers, that is normal. Add grease to replace the gray
grease or if gaps between rollers are visible. If grease
is watery, all gray or rust is visible, have the bearing
replaced. See the next page for more information.
Note: When checking the top bearing, always inspect
the drip pan for water seal leaks. If water is present
in the drip pan, service the water seal and check the
gear reducer's lubricant. See the next page.
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.
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
Use of adjustable ice level control
There are several positions the ice level can be set to,
including Off or Max (knob and label indicators lined
up), where it lls the bin until the standard bin control
shuts the machine off. See the kit’s instructions for
complete details.
• Planning to sanitize the bin
• Faster turnover for fresher ice
• Certain dispenser applications where maximum ice
level is not desired
Rotate the adjustment post to the desired ice level.
The machine will ll up to that level and when it shuts
off the indicator light next to the adjustment post will
be On.
Note: The maximum ll position is when the arrow on
the knob points to the arrow on the label.
Dispenser applications - Nugget ice only:
Set the adjustment knob arrow to the Norm area
between the green arrows. Select either the rst or
second positions as a starting point and adjust as
needed.
The machine will make either aked 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 signicant 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
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.
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 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.
To Manually Reset the machine.
• Open the switch door
• Push and release the Off button.
• Push and release the On button.
Open Switch Door
Reasons the machine might shut itself off:
• Lack of water.
• Does not make ice
• Auger motor overload
• High discharge pressure.
• Low refrigeration system pressure.
