You will getbetterservicefromthe icemachine,longerlife and greaterconvenienceifyou chooseitslocation
withcare.
Here areafewpointstoconsider:
1.Selectalocation as close aspossibletowhereyou are going to usethe ice.
2.Allowaminimumof6”space atsidesand rearofmachine forventilation.
3.Akitchen installation isnotdesirable asarule. If akitchen installation isnecessary,locatethe machine as
faraway
fromthe cooking area aspossible.Greaseladen airwill formgreasy depositson the condenser.Thisre-
ducesthe icemaking efficiency and necessitatesthorough cleaning quite often.
4. If you install the unitinastoreroom,be surethe roomiswell ventilated.
NOTE:Do notinstall wherethe ambientand incoming watertemperaturewill drop below50°F or rise to
over100°F.
NOTE:Ifwaterpressure exceeds50lbs., awaterpressureregulatorshould beinstalledinwaterinlet
linebetweenwatershut-off valve and strainer.Minimumincoming waterpressurerequiredis22lbs..
A.Uncratethe unitbyremoving the staplesornailsfromthe bottomof the carton and lift off.
B.Removethe boltsholding the skidtothe machine.
C. If legsare used,adjust the leveling legsof the storage bin until the unitisleveland all four (4)legsare
insolidcontactwiththe floor.Leveling is veryimportant to obtain properdraining.
D.Provideacoldwatersupplyline tothe area selected forthe installation of the unit. The incoming wa-
terline should haveashut--off valve provided ataconvenientlocation closetothe icemaker.The wa-
terstrainerprovided withthe unitshouldbeinstalled on the down--streamside of the shut--off valve.
The supplyline mustbe adequately sized tocompensateforthe lengthsof the incoming water run.
The machine isequipped witha3/8”maleflareconnection forthe incoming waterline.
NOTE:ALWAYS FLUSHOUTWATERLINES BEFORE STARTINGUNIT.
Watercooled unitshaveawater regulating valvethatisfactory set to operate at270 to 310 PSIG
head pressureforR404a (wateroutlet temp.approx.105F)This shouldbechecked at the timethe
unitisbeing installed.
Twowaterinletconnectionsare provided on watercooled units,one forthe icemaking (evaporator)
section, the otherisforthe watercooled condenser.Bothconnectionsare 3/8”maleflarefittings. In-
letwatertothe condenserwill go tothe water regulating valvefirst, then tothe condensercoil and out
the drain.
The reason forseparatewaterinletconnectionsisthatsomeinstallationsuse a watertowerforcooling
the waterused inthe watercooled condenserand someinstallationsusetreated waterforthe ice
making inletwater.
Aseparate drainwill be required forthe outletof the watercooled condenser.
E.Provideasuitabletrapped open drain as close aspossibletothe area wherethe icemakerisgoing to
be installed.Thismaybe an existing floorora11/4”trapped open drain.Connect the drainline to
the rearof the unitand run itwith a good fall tothe open drain.All plumbing mustbe installed accord-
ing tolocalcodes.The storage bin drainsbygravity,and thereforethe drainline mustmaintain a
gradualslope to an open drain and shouldbeinsulated.
