WARNING

CAUTION

Location Limitations:

The product is designed to be installed indoors, in a controlled environment. Air cooled models discharge very warm air into the room out the back. Space must be allowed at the left side and back for air intake and discharge. Water cooled models discharge warm water into the building's drain. Space needs to be provided on both sides and above for service access.

Space Limitations

Note: Although the machine will function, ice capacity of air cooled machines will be significantly reduced with minimal clearance at the sides, back and top. Some space is recommended for service and maintenance purposes on all models.

150mm of space at the sides and back are required for adequate operation. To get the most capacity, locate the machine away from heat producing appliances and heating ducts, and keep the left side away from any wall, allow 300-450 mm of space for good air flow

Airflow is in the left side, out the back (as viewed from the front).

Air and Water Cooled User Manual

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. 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. 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, 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.

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 has the capability to automatically vary the amount of water purgeed 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.

Switch Bezel

All models ship with the On and Off switches front accessible. If desired, the On and Off switches can be covered up to prevent unauthorized use by changing the bezel in the front panel's trim strip. A cover-up bezel ships loose with the machine.

To change bezels: Remove the front panel, and refer to the instruction label on the inside of the front panel. Push snaps of standard bezel in and pull the bezel out of the front panel trim strip. Locate other bezel. Push into the trim strip from the front until it snaps into place. Return the front panel to its original position and secure it to the cabinet.

Uncrate and Set Up

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.

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.

Install the bin top adapter or ice dispenser 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. Lift the ice machine off the skid directly onto the bin.

Note: The machine is heavy! Use a mechanical hoist if necessary.

Secure the ice machine to the bin with the hardware provided (two metal straps and 4 bolts).

Place the bin and ice machine in the selected location and level it by adjusting the bin leg levelers.

Air and Water Cooled User Manual

Plumbing Requirements

All models require connection to cold, potable water. A hand actuated valve within site of the machine is required. Air cooled models have a single 3/4 gas BSPP inlet water connection.

Water cooled models have the same inlet fitting plus an additional 3/8 FPT condenser inlet water connection.

Water Filters

If connecting to water filtration, filter only the water to the reservoir, not to the condenser. Install a new cartridge if the filters were used with a prior machine.

All models require drain tubing to be attached to them. Air cooled models have a single 3/4 FPT drain fitting in the back of the cabinet. Water cooled models have the same fitting plus an additional 1/2 FPT drain fitting in the back of the cabinet.

Install new tubing when replacing a prior ice machine, as the tubing will have been sized for the old model and might not be correct for this one.

1. Connect water supply to water inlet fittings. 3/8" OD tubing is recommended.
2. Connect drain tubing to drain fittings.
3. Route the drain tubing to building drain. Follow local codes for air gap.

Drain Tubing:

Use rigid drain tubes and route them separately - do not Tee into the bin's drain and, if water cooled, do not Tee the condenser drain into the reservoir or bin drain.

Vent the reservoir drain. A vertical vent at the back of the drain, extended about 200-250 mm will allow the gravity drain to empty and also keep any surges during draining from discharging water out the vent..

Horizontal runs of drain tubing need a 14 fall per foot of run for proper draining.

Follow all applicable codes.

Plumbing Connections

Electrical

The machine is not supplied with a power cord, one must either be field installed or the machine hard-wired.

The dataplate on the back of the cabinet details the power requirements, including voltage, phase, minimum circuit ampacity and maximum fuse size. HACR type circuit breakers may be used in place of fuses. Extension cords are not permitted. Use of a licensed electrician is recommended.

Electrical connections are made inside the junction box in the back panel of the ice machine.

1. Remove the junction box cover and route the power cord through the access hole and properly attach the power supply wires to the leads in the junction box.
2. Install a field supplied strain relief per code. Attach a ground wire to the ground connection in the junction box.
3. Check voltage when complete.
4. Return the junction box cover to its original position and secure with the original screws.

The electrical disconnect switch with fuse protection must be a two pole type with a minimum of 3mm between open contacts.

Follow all applicable local, state and national codes.

Initial Start Up

1. Remove front panel. Check machine for any packing or wires rubbing moving parts. Note location of control board in upper left corner of the machine's front.
2. Remove tape securing curtain to evaporator.
3. Switch on the electrical power to the machine. Observe that some of the control's indicator lights glow and its display shows .
4. Open the water supply valve.
5. Push and release the ON button. The code display will begin to blink F .

The purge valve opens, the water pump starts and the inlet water valve opens to add water to the reservoir. In a few seconds the purge valve closes and the water pump stops. Water will flow into the machine until the reservoir is full. The hot gas valve and harvest assist device will activate, then the compressor and water pump will start. If it's an air cooled model the fan(s) motors will begin to turn a few moments after the compressor starts. The display will show a continuous F . Five seconds later the hot gas valve will close and the harvest assist device will return to its standby position. Warm air will be discharged from air cooled models.

1. Observe the Ready for Harvest indicator light. It may blink early in the cycle, that is normal. The control will ignore that signal for the first 6 minutes of freeze.
2. During the Freeze cycle move the curtain and observe that the SW1 or SW2 light on the control board blinks Off when the curtain moves away from the evaporator and On when returned to its normal position.

Note: Moving the curtain during the Freeze cycle has no affect on control function, but will cause water to flow into the cube chute.

1. When enough ice has frozen, the Ready for Harvest indicator light will be on steady. After it's been on steady for a few seconds Harvest will begin.

The display shows an H . The hot gas valve opens, the air cooled fan motor(s) shut off and the harvest assist mechanism is activated. The purge valve opens to drain some water, when it does the inlet water valve opens to refill the reservoir. After a few

seconds the purge valve closes but the inlet water valve continues to fill the reservoir. Harvest continues until the ice is released as a unit and forces the curtain to open. When the curtain opens it signals the controller which returns the unit to a freeze cycle.

1. Check the ice harvested for proper bridge thickness. The ice bridge is factory set at 1/8 inch. If needed, adjust bridge thickness. Do NOT make it too thin.
2. Return the front panel to its normal position and secure it to the machine.
3. Instruct the user in the operation of the machine and its maintenance requirements.
4. Fill out and mail the warranty registration form.

Air and Water Cooled User Manual

Use and Operation

Once started, the ice machine will automatically make ice until the bin or dispenser is full of ice. When ice level drops, the ice machine will resume making ice.

Caution: Do not place anything on top of the ice machine, including the ice scoop. Debris and moisture from objects on top of the machine can work their way into the cabinet and cause serious damage. Damage caused by foreign material is not covered by warranty.

There are four indicator lights at the front of the machine that provide information on the condition of the machine.

Indicator Lights:

Power
- Status
Water
- De-scale & Sanitize

	Indicator Lights & Their Meanings
	Power	Status	Water	De-Scale & Sanitize
Steady Green	Normal	Normal – bin full or making ice	-	-
Blinking Green	Self Test Failure	Switching on or off - -
Blinking Red -		Diagnostic shutdown or, if making ice, temperature sensor failure	Lack of water	-
Yellow - - -				Time to de-scale and sanitize
Blinking Yellow	--- In Cleaning mode
Light off	No power	Switched off	Normal	Normal
All Blinking	Unit remotely locked out – check with leasing company

If the Water light is on, the machine has sensed a lack of water. Check the water supply to the machine. The water could have been shut off or the water filter cartridges might need to be changed.

If the De-Scale light is on, the machine has determined that it needs to be cleaned. Contact an authorized Scotsman service agent and have the machine cleaned, de-scaled and sanitized.

Note: A Component Indicator Light switches ON to indicate that the component is operating.

Note: There are two Curtain Switch lights, SW1 and SW2. These single plate models have one curtain switch light on all the time, as a curtain switch light is ON when a curtain is either open or not present.

Control Switches

There is front access to two switches - On and Off.

Status De-Scale Off
Power Water On

To switch the machine OFF, push and release the Off button. The machine will shut off at the end of the next cycle. To shut the machine off immediately, push and hold the Off button for 3 seconds.

To switch the machine ON, push and release the On button. The machine will go through a start up process and then resume ice making.

Control Options

There are three optional, field installed controls that can be added to this machine.

• VariSmart™ adjustable ice level control
• SmartBoard™ advanced control board and data logger

Adjustable ice level control, kit # 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 above. 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 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: Ice will build up in the bin or dispenser at an angle, the distance set will be from the sensor to the top of the ice. The sensor position is shown in the cabinet layout diagrams.

The actual distance between the highest point of the ice may be closer or further away than the distance set, depending upon the angle of the ice.

C0322 through C1030

Air and Water Cooled User Manual

Options

Advanced Feature Board, kit #KSB

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 Smart-Board's features include:

• Seven day programmable ice level setting when used with the optional Ultrasonic ice level control
• Recording of machine operation, including cycle time.
• Calculation of average cycle time
• Recall of malfunctions with the time they occurred.

Ice

The cube drops ice in large sections. That ice will break up into random parts as it falls into the bin, but some large sections may remain on top of the ice in the bin. When removing ice, tap the groups of ice with an ice scoop to separate them into smaller units. In a dispenser, this ice will break up into mostly individual cubes as the dispense mechanism moves the ice.

The ice in the bin will slope down from the right to the left. This is normal.

Heat

Air cooled models will generate heat when in operation. That heat is discharged out the back of the cabinet.

Noise

The ice machine will make noise when it is in ice making mode. The compressor, fan motor(s) if air cooled and water pump all produce some sound. It is also normal to hear some cracking just before the harvest cycle begins. In addition, during the harvest cycle the harvest assist solenoid will click twice as it pushes the ice out and returns to its normal position. The ice harvests as a unit or slab, which makes some noise when it impacts the bin or dispenser. These noises are all normal for this machine.

Cleaning, Sanitation and Maintenance

This ice system requires three types of maintenance:

• Remove the build up of mineral scale from the ice machine's water system and sensors.
• Sanitize the ice machine's water system and the ice storage bin or dispenser.
• Clean or replace the air filter and clean the air cooled condenser (air cooled models only).

It is the User's responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition.

Sanitize the ice storage bin as frequently as local health codes require, and every time the ice machine is cleaned and sanitized.

The ice machine's water system should be cleaned and sanitized a minimum of twice per year. This is critical to the proper operation of the ice machine. Contact you local authorized service agent for water system cleaning.

Air cooled condenser filter

1. Pull air filter(s) forward from side panel.
2. Wash the dust and grease off the filter.
3. Return it to its original position.

Do not operate the machine without the filter in place except during cleaning.

Air cooled condenser

If the machine has been operated without a filter the air cooled condenser fins will need to be cleaned.

They are located under the fan blades. The services of a refrigeration technician will be required to clean the condenser.

Exterior Panels

The front and side panels are durable stainless steel. Fingerprints, dust and grease will require cleaning with a good quality stainless steel cleaner.

Water filters

If the machine has been connected to water filters, check the cartridges for the date they were replaced or for the pressure on the gauge. Change cartridges if they've been installed more than 6 months or if the pressure drops too much when the ice machine fills with water.

C0322 through C1030

Air and Water Cooled User Manual

What to do before calling for service

Reasons the machine might shut itself off:

• Lack of water.
• Freeze cycle takes too long.
• Harvest cycle takes too long.
  High discharge temperature.
• 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 25 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 water off to a water cooled unit? If yes, after the water supply has been restored the ice machine may need to be manually reset.
4. Is the curtain open because some ice is stuck under it? If so, remove the ice and the machine should start in a few minutes.

Note: Curtain can be removed & replaced anytime the machine is in a standby mode or when it is in a freeze cycle. However, removal of the curtain during freeze will result in water flowing into the bin. Removal of the curtain during harvest terminates harvest at that point and, if left off, will result in the machine shutting off.

To Manually Reset the machine.

• Push and release the Off button.
• Push and release the On button.

To Shut the Machine Off:

1. Push and hold the Off button for 3 seconds or until the machine stops.
