Outdoor Use Notice:

Keep from freezing. Severe damage will occur to the unit if left in or operated in temperatures beyond the limits listed in this manual. That damage is NOT covered by warranty.

Keep dry. Do not locate in low lying areas where puddles will accumulate.

Provide Shade: Heat gain from the sun will reduce the unit's ability to make and store ice, and ultraviolet radiation from the sun can potentially damage the unit's plastic components.

Water Supply: Avoid a long run of hose or tubing exposed to the sun. Plastic water supply tubing should be rated for potable water and include UV protection. Copper tubing is recommended.

Back Flow Prevention: The unit includes back flow prevention, no additional check valve is required.

Drainage: Do Not drain into swimming pool or onto grounds.

Operation: It is normal for the ice level in the storage bin to be low when unit is used in temperatures below 65 degrees F.

Specifications

This ice machine is designed to be used indoors, in a controlled environment, and under limited conditions (see page 1), outdoors. It can be used in a wide variety of environmental conditions, but there are limits. Use outside of the listed limitations is misuse and will void the warranty.

Installation Notes

Built In Situations: If a finished floor is to be installed in the area after the ice machine has been built in, shims the expected thickness of the floor should be installed under the unit to keep the machine level with the planned floor level.

Installations on a slab: Use a pump model and pump the water to the point of drainage. Pump models will pump 1 story (10 feet) high.

Installations over a crawl space or basement: Either gravity drain or pump model units may be used, if there is not enough room behind the machine for a drain/waste receptacle, the drain will have to be below the floor.

Water Quality

All water, including potable water supplied by municipalities, contains some impurities or minerals. Water absorbs impurities from the air as rain and/or as it flows through the ground. Some of the impurities are solid particles, these are known as suspended solids, and a fine particle filter will remove them. Other impurities are chemically bonded to the water molecules, and cannot be filtered out, these are called dissolved solids.

Ice made by this machine will have a lower mineral content than the water it was made from. This is due to the method of making ice, as water with few or no mineral content will freeze first in the ice making molds. The reason for this is that the minerals dissolved in water lowers the water's freezing temperature so the purer water freezes first. This concentrates most of the impurities in the ice machine water reservoir where they may form hard deposits known as scale. The machine automatically dilutes the concentration of minerals by over-filling the reservoir during the harvest cycle (with the excess water flowing down the drain). Between 2 and 4 pints of water flow into the unit each cycle. Between 1 and 3.5 pints of that rinses the reservoir and goes down the drain.

Some impurities will inevitably remain, and will stick to the parts in the machine, and will cause malformed ice cubes. Eventually, built up mineral scale can shorten machine life.

To keep the machine operating properly, these impurities or minerals will have to be regularly dissolved by an acid cleaning, using Scotsman Ice Machine Scale Remover. Directions for this may be found in the section under cleaning.

Filters and Treatment

In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter, if it is of the proper type, can remove taste and odors as well as particles. Some methods of water treatment for dissolved solids include reverse osmosis and polyphosphate feeders.

RO Water

This machine can be supplied with Reverse Osmosis water, but the water conductivity must be no less than 10 microSiemens/cm. A reverse osmosis system should include post treatment to satisfy the R.O. water's potential aggressiveness. Deionized water is not recommended.

Because water softeners exchange one mineral for another, softened water may not improve water conditions when used with ice machines. Where water is very hard, softened water could result in white, mushy cubes that stick together.

If in doubt about the water, contact a local point of use water specialist for recommendations on water treatment.

Installation Overview

The ice machine must:

• be connected to cold, potable water
• be connected to a drain
• be connected to the proper power supply
• be able circulate air through the vents at the front.

Note: Do not build in so that the door is recessed.

Installation: Water & Drain

The recommended water supply tubing is 14 inch OD copper. Install an easily accessible shut-off valve between the supply and the unit. This shut-off valve should not be installed behind the unit.

Note: Do not use self-piercing type valves.

1. Remove the front service panel.

Screw Securing Front Service Panel

1. Route the tubing through the right hole in the back to the inlet water solenoid valve inlet.
2. Install a compression fitting on the tubing and connect to the inlet of the solenoid.
3. Check all connections for leaks and water drips and ensure hoses are secure.

Drains

There are two types of ice machine models, one that drains by gravity and one that has an internal drain pump.

Drain Pump Model drain installation

1. Locate the coil of 3/8" ID plastic drain tubing secured to the back of the unit.
2. Route the plastic drain tube from the back of the unit to the drain connection point.
3. Pour water into ice bin to check for leaks.

The drain connection point can be as high as 10 feet above the ice machine. The drain pump includes a check valve to prevent re-pumping water in the drain hose.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Often an air gap is required by local codes between the ice maker drain tube and the drain receptacle.

Note: It is recommended to purge the water supply lines prior to connecting to the ice machine. This will flush sediment from the line and prevent water flow restrictions.

Gravity Drain

Caution: Restrictions in the drain system to the machine will cause water to back up into the ice storage bin and melt the ice. Gravity drain tubing must be vented, have no kinks and slope to the building drain. Air gaps are typically required by local code.

1. Place the ice machine in front of the installation opening. Adjust leveling legs to the approximate height.
2. Remove the front service access panel and the upper back panel.

Note: If you are connecting a gravity drain model and the drain opening has been located in the floor under the base pan according to the pre install specifications, follow steps 3 through 5 to drain the unit through the base. If not, proceed to step 6b.

1. Remove the clamp and barbed elbow and take off the plastic cover in the base pan below the drain hose.

2. Connect a straight 5/8" barbed connector to the drain hose, securing with the clamp removed in step 3.

3. Cut an 8" piece of 5/8" ID X 7/8" OD tygon (clear plastic) tubing. Slide one end of the tube onto the outlet of the barbed connector and secure with a clamp. Leave the other end of the tube lying on the floor of the base pan until the unit is positioned over the floor drain.

4. Route the drain tube. Either a) Insert the drain tube through the base pan into the floor drain or b) Route the drain tube through the left hole in the lower back panel and connect to barbed elbow and secure with a clamp.

Note: Add a vertical vent in a horizontal drain tube to reduce internal pressure and improve drainage.

1. Pour water in to ice bin to check for leaks.
2. Reinstall the upper back panel.
3. Reinstall the service access panel. Level the unit.

Note: It is recommended to purge the water supply lines prior to connecting to the ice machine. This will flush sediment from the line and prevent water flow restrictions.

Electrical

The ice machine is supplied with a power cord. Do not remove the grounding pin from the cord's plug. Do not use extension cords. Follow all codes. Connect the machine to a dedicated 115 volt, 15 amp circuit.

1. If the electrical outlet for the ice maker is behind the unit, plug in the unit.
2. Position the unit in the installation opening.
3. After the water supply has been purged, turn on the water supply. Make sure that the ice maker is plugged in and the power is on. Verify water leaks are not present.
4. Slide unit into installation opening, paying careful attention to water supply and drain connections. Do not kink!
5. Pour a couple of quarts of water into the ice storage bin; on drain pump equipped machines the drain pump should start and water should pump out. Check for leaks and water drips and ensure hoses are secure.

6. Replace the service access panel.

7. Level the unit as needed.

The unit is equipped with an electrical power cord, but should only be plugged into a circuit dedicated to the ice machine. The unit must be the only device on the circuit; powered directly from the breaker panel.

Confirm the outlet is properly grounded and is in good condition. Worn outlets should be replaced as they can cause erratic operation of equipment. Do not use an extension cord.

Start Up

Check list:

1. Has the unit been connected to the proper water supply?
2. Has the water supply been purged?
3. Has the water supply been checked for leaks?
4. Has the unit been connected to a drain?
5. Has the drain been tested for flow and leaks?
6. Has the unit been connected to the proper electrical supply?
7. Has the unit been leveled?
8. Have all packing materials been removed from the machine?
9. Has the door covering been installed?

Initial Start Up

1. Turn on the water supply.
2. Switch on the electrical power.
3. Push and release the On/Off switch to start the machine. The Ice Making light next to the On/Off switch will glow Green.

Ice Making Check Water Time to Clean Clean Reset

1. Water will begin to flow into the unit. When the reservoir is full, water will start to drain from the machine. After a few minutes the compressor, water pump and fan motor will begin to operate and the first ice making cycle will have begun.

No adjustments are needed.

After about a half hour, ice will fall into the ice storage bin. The machine makes 24 cubes per batch. It is normal for the first batches of ice to melt, that continues until the bin has cooled. It will take 8 to 10 hours of continuous run time to fill the ice bin. When the bin is full of ice, the ice machine will shut off. It will automatically restart when the ice level falls, either from use or normal meltage.

Use

No special instructions are needed for use. Just take as much ice as you need, the machine will replace it. A scoop is provided, and it can be stored in the machine using the loop of tubing on the right side as a holder. That tubing is also the ice level sensor; ice will fill the storage bin until it's near to or on that tube and then the machine will shut off.

To maximize ice storage capacity, you may need to use the scoop to level the ice in the storage bin, especially within the first day or so of operation.

The machine can be shut off anytime by just pushing and releasing the On/Off button. The machine will shut off at the end of the next cycle. To shut off immediately, push and hold the On/Off button in until the machine stops.

What shouldn't be done?

Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is not ice. Objects like wine or beer bottles are not only unsanitary, but the labels can slip off and plug up the drain.

Never allow the machine to operate without regular cleaning. The machine will last longer if it is kept clean. Regular cleaning should happen at least once per year, and preferably twice. Some water conditions will dictate even more frequent cleaning of the ice making section, and some carpets or pets will dictate more frequent cleaning of the condenser.

Note: The Time to Clean light will switch ON after 6 months of use. It will stay ON until the ice making system is cleaned using the process on page 13.

Noise:

The ice machine is designed for quite operation, but will make some noise during the ice making cycle. During a freezing cycle, it is normal to hear the fan moving air and the water pump circulating water. Ice hitting the bin or ice in the bin can be heard during harvest.

Normal cubes are tapered cylinders. If the cubes are ragged and mis-shaped, mineral scale must be removed from the ice making system

Do not unplug or disconnect power to the ice machine with out shutting off the water supply. Note: This ice machine should be on its own dedicated circuit with out any other appliances or devices.

Maintenance

There are 6 things to keep clean:

1. The outside cabinet & door.
2. The ice storage bin.
3. The condenser.
4. The ice making system.
5. The ice scoop.
6. The drain pump.

How to clean the cabinet.

Wipe off any spills on the surface of the door and handle as they occur. If anything spilled on the door or gasket dries onto the surface, wash with soap and warm water to remove.

How to clean the ice storage bin.

Over time biofilm can grow inside the drain system which can affect the ability for the drain system to evacuate the drain water. On the pump models this will result in the pump getting stuck on; and running dry. This leads to pump failure. Biofilm and pump cycling issues will eventually lead to low production and standing water in the bin. To ensure that this does not become an issue frequent bin sanitizing may be required.

The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. It is usually convenient to sanitize the bin after the ice making system has been cleaned, and the storage bin is empty. A sanitizing solution can be made of 1 ounce of household bleach and two gallons of hot (95°F. – 115°F.) water. Use a clean cloth and wipe the interior of the ice storage bin with the sanitizing solution, pour some of the solution down the drain.

Allow to air dry.

It is the User's responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition. Without human intervention, sanitation will not be maintained. Ice machines also require occasional cleaning of their water systems with a specifically designed chemical. This chemical dissolves mineral build up that forms during the ice making process.

How to clean the condenser and winterize

A sanitizing solution can be made of 1 ounce of locally approved sanitizer and 2 gallons of hot (95°F.-115°F.) water. Use a clean lcoth and wupre the interior of the ice storage bin with the sanitizing solution, pour some of hte solution down the drain.

Allow to air dry.

Condenser cleaning

Condenser Surface

The condenser is like the radiator on a car, it has fins and tubes that can become clogged with dirt and lint.

1. Remove the kickplate and front service panel.

Note: Outdoor operation can lead to rapid build up of debris, such as leaves and other vegetation. The condenser will need to be frequently checked for debris. Clean it whenever the fins are obstructed.

1. Locate the condenser surface.

2. Vacuum the surface, removing all dust and lint.

Caution: Do not dent the fins.

1. Return the kickplate and front service panel to their original positions. Fasten them to the cabinet using the original screws.

Decommissioning

Only qualified technicians familiar with R290 refrigerant should decommission a machine, as special tools and containers are required for the removal, transportation, and disposal of this highly flammable substance.

• Before attempting the procedure:

* Ensure that all protective gear is present and used throughout the procedure.

* Make sure recovery equipment and containers are available and ready for use. All containers used for recovery must be rated for R290 refrigerant and must be labeled as such.

* Weigh any refrigerant prior to reclaiming.

- Maintain safety through standard operating procedures as outlined on page 20 of this document. Be sure to follow local, state, and federal guidelines for proper disposal.

- Do not fill containers more than 80% and do not exceed the pressure limits of the container. Make sure the machine to be decommissioned is in satisfactory working order and that the electrical components of the machine are properly sealed to prevent ignition.

- Recovered refrigerant should not be charged into another refrigerating system or mixed in another container.

- Make sure to safely transport the refrigerant in line with standard operating procedures.

- All recovered refrigerant must be returned to refrigerant supplier for proper disposal.

- If compressor or compressor oils are removed ensure it has been removed to an acceptable level so the flammable refrigerant does not remain in the lubricant.
