III. INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. CHECKS BEFORE INSTALLATION
*Visually inspect theexterior of the shipping container,and any severedamage noted should
be reported to the carrier.
WARNING
1. Remove shipping tape(s) and packing as follows. If any left in the icemaker,
it will not work properly.
2. Do not lift or carry the unpacked icemaker by using the brass fitting for water
supply at the rear of the unit. The plastic threads may be damaged.
IMPORTANT
1. Remove the shipping tapes holding the Door and Separator.
2. Ensure all components, fasteners and thumbscrews are securely in place.
* Remove the package containing accessories.
* Check that refrigerant lines do not rub or touch lines or other surfaces.
* Check that the Compressor is snug on all mounting pads.
* See the Nameplate on the upper right part of the Left Side Panel, and check that your
voltage supplied corresponds with the voltage specified on the Nameplate.

2. LOCATION
WARNING
This icemaker is not intended for outdoor use. Normal operating ambient
temperature should be within 50°F (10°C) to 100°F (38°C); Normal operating
water temperature should be within 41°F (5°C) to 90°F (32°C). Operation of
theicemaker,forextended periods,outsideof thesenormal temperatureranges
may affect production capacity.
For best operating results:
* The icemaker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other high heat producing
equipment.
* The location should provide a firm foundation for the equipment. Level the icemaker from
side to side and front to rear.
*Avoid a site where dripping is not allowed.
* This icemaker will not work at subfreezing temperatures. To prevent damage to the water
supply line, drain the icemaker when air temperature is below zero.
* TheAM-100BAE icemaker requires no clearance at either side. But allow enough space at
rear for water supply and drain connections and at least 12” (approx. 30 cm) clearance at
front.
*TheAM-150BAF icemakerrequires 2”(approx. 5cm) clearanceat eitherside. Allow enough
space at rear for water supply and drain connections and at least 12” (approx. 30 cm)
clearance at front.

3. SET UP
IMPORTANT
Do not place heavy objects exceeding 33 lbs (15 kg) on the Top Panel.
1)Unpack the icemaker,and remove all shipping cartons, tapes
and packing BEFORE operating the unit.
2) Position the icemaker in a selected site. Clean the interior
with soap and water and rinse thoroughly.
3) Level the icemaker in both the left-to-right and the front-to-
rear directions (when installed with or without legs). See Fig.
2.
4) When installing the unit without legs, the perimeter where the
machine touches the counter should be sealed with silicone
to prevent water from leaking under the icemaker.
5) When installing the unit with legs on the bottom, use the four
accessory legs adjustable from 6” (15.2 cm) to 7” (17.8 cm).
Screw the legs tightly into the tapped holes in the base (see
Fig. 3). Handle the icemaker carefully not to damage the
exterior.
4. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED.
This icemaker requires a ground that meets the national and local electrical
code requirements. To prevent possible severe electrical shock injury to
individuals or extensive damage to equipment, install a proper ground wire to
thisicemaker. Removetheplugfrom themainssocket beforeanymaintenance,
repairs or cleaning is undertaken.
* This icemaker must be plugged into the separated power receptacle which has enough
capacity. The maximum allowable voltage variation should not exceed ± 10 percent of the
nameplate rating. See the Nameplate.
* Usually an electrical permit and services of a licensed electrician are required.

5. WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN CONNECTIONS
WARNING
To prevent damage to the freezer mechanism, do not operate this icemaker
when the water supply is OFF, or if the pressure is below 10 PSIG (0.7 bar), the
recommended water pressure. Stop the icemaker until proper water pressure
is resumed.
CAUTION
1. Abrass fitting for the water supply line connection is attachedto the 3/4” BSP
plastic threads to avoid cross-threading of the Water Valve possibly resulting
in leaks. The brass fitting allows connection of a 1/2” FPT that should be
connected to the potable water supply line.
2. While making the water supply line connection, use a wrench to hold the
brass fitting still to prevent overtightening and damage to the plastic threads.
* Water supply inlet for the icemaker is 1/2” female pipe thread (FPT).
Note: Onwater-cooled model,twowater supplyinletsare provided. Oneis fortheicemaker
(1/2” FPT), and the other is for the water-cooled condenser (1/2” FPT).
* The brass fitting is attached as shown in Fig. 4. The fitting size is a 1/2” FPT and must be
connected only to a potable water supply.
* A water supply line shut-off valve and drain valve must be installed.
* Water supply pressure should be a minimum of 10 PSIG (0.7 bar) and a maximum of 113
PSIG (7.5 bar). If the pressure exceeds 113 PSIG (7.5 bar), use a pressure reducing valve.
* Drain outlet for icemaker dump is 3/4” FPT.
Note: On water-cooled model, a 3/8” FPT is provided for the condenser drain outlet. The
icemakerdrainandthecondenserdrainpipingconnectionsmustbemadeseparately.
* Drain must be 1/4” fall per foot (2 cm fall per meter) on horizontal runs to get good flow.
* Keep a more than 2 vertical inch (5 vertical cm) air gap between the drain pipe end and the
sink.
* The drain pipe must be so laid as to prevent a backflow into the Storage Bin. Provide a trap
in the bin drain line to prevent odor from flowing back into the Storage Bin.

15
* A plumbing permit and services of a licensed plumber may be required in some areas.
* This icemaker should be installed in accordance with applicable national, state and local
regulations.

6. FINAL CHECK LIST
1) Is the icemaker level?
2) Is the icemaker in a site where the ambient temperature is within 50°F (10°C) to 100°F
(38°C) and the water temperature within 41°F (5°C) to 90°F (32°C) all year around?
3) Have all shipping tape(s), string and packing been removed from the icemaker?
4) Are all components, fasteners and thumbscrews securely in place?
5) Have all electrical and piping connections been made?
6) Has the power supply voltage been tested or checked against the nameplate rating?
Has a proper earth been installed to the icemaker?
7) Are theWaterSupplyLine Shut-offValve andDrain Valve installed? Hasthe water supply
pressure been checked to ensure a minimum of 10 PSIG (0.7 bar) and a maximum of
113 PSIG (7.5 bar)?
8) Have the Compressor hold-down bolts and all refrigerant lines been checked against
vibration and possible failure?
9) Has theBinControl Thermostat been checkedfor correct operation? Whenthe icemaker
is running, cool the Detector of the Bin Control Thermostat. The icemaker should stop
within 10 seconds.
10) Has the user been given the Instruction Manual and instructed on how to operate the
icemaker and the importance of periodic maintenance recommended?
11) Has the user been given the name and telephone number of the Authorized Service

7. START UP
* Check that shipping tape(s), string and packing are removed before starting the icemaker.
1) Clean inside the Storage Bin and Door.
2) Open the Water Supply Line Shut-off Valve and plug in the icemaker.
3) Remove the Front Panel (Lower), and move the Control Switch on the Control Box to the
“ICE” position.
* The freezing cycle will start automatically.
