II. INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. CHECKS BEFORE INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT
Remove shipping carton, tape(s) and packing. If packing material is left in
the icemaker, it will not work properly.
1) Remove the panels to prevent damage when installing the icemaker. (See “2.HOWTO
REMOVE PANELS.”)
2) Remove the package containing the accessories.
3)Removetheprotectiveplasticfilmfromthepanels. Iftheicemaker is exposed to the sun
or to heat, remove the film after the icemaker cools.
4) Check that the refrigerant lines do not rub or touch lines or other surfaces, and that the
fan blade turns freely.
5) Check that the Compressor is snug on all mounting pads.
6) See the Nameplate on the Rear Panel, and check that your voltage supplied corre-
sponds with the voltage specified on the Nameplate.
7) This icemaker needs a storage bin. The recommended storage bin is HOSHIZAKI ICE
STORAGE BIN, Model B-500 series.
8) On remote air-cooled models, a remote condenser unit is needed. The recommended
remote condenser unit is HOSHIZAKI CONDENSER UNIT, Model URC-12F.
2. HOW TO REMOVE PANELS - See Fig. 1
a)FrontPanel...............Removethescrew.

WARNING
This icemaker is not intended for outdoor use. Normal operating ambient
temperatureshouldbewithin+45°Fto+100°F; Normaloperatingwater tem-
perature should be within +45°F to +90°F. Operation of the icemaker, for
extended periods, outside of these normal temperature ranges may affect
production capacity.
For best operating results:
•Icemaker should not be located next to ovens, grills or other high heat producing equip-
ment.
•Location should provide a firm and level foundation for the equipment.
•Allow 6" clearance at rear, sides and top for proper air circulation and ease of mainte-
nance and/or service should they be required.
4. SET UP
1) Unpack the Storage Bin, and attach the four adjustable legs provided (bin accessory) to
the bottom of the Storage Bin.
2) Position the Storage Bin in the selected permanent position.
3) Place the icemaker on the top of the Storage Bin.
4) Secure the icemaker to the Storage Bin, by using the two mounting brackets and the
bolts provided. See Fig. 2.

CAUTION
Before operating the icemaker, the Bin ControlThermostat Bulb must be set
correctly.
5) Set the Bin Control Thermostat Bulb as follows. See Fig.3.
(a)Take off the shipping tape securing theThermostat Bulb Holder. Remove theTher-
mostat Bulb Holder from the Shipping Hook by lifting it up and shifting to the right.
(b) Slide theThermostat Bulb Holder down through the hole located in the bottom of the
icemaker until it is placed in the Bracket.
(c) Insert the Plug into the Receptacle on the Holder. Check to see that the Plug is
locked into the Receptacle.
6) Level the icemaker/Storage Bin in both the left-to-right and front-to-rear directions.
Adjust the Ice Bin Legs to make the icemaker level.
7) Replace the panels in their correct positions.

5. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
WARNING
1.Electricalconnectionmustbemadeinaccordancewiththeinstructionson
a “WARNING” tag, provided with the pig tail leads in the Junction Box.
2.This icemaker requires a ground that meets the national and local electri-
cal code requirements. To prevent possible electrical shock to individuals
or extensive damage to the equipment, install a proper ground wire to the
icemaker.
•Thewhiteleadmustbe connected to theneutralconductor of the powersource. Miswiring
results in severe damage to the icemaker. See Fig.4.
•This icemaker must have a separate power supply or receptacle of proper capacity. See
the Nameplate.
•The opening for the power supply connection is 7/8" DIA to fit a 1/2" trade size conduit.
•Usually an electrical permit and services of a licensed electrician are required.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The white lead must be connected
to the neutral conductor of
the power source.
Miswiring results in severe
damage to the icemaker.
(See Fig. below.)

6. INSTALLATION OF REMOTE CONDENSER UNIT
[a] CHECKS BEFORE INSTALLATION
1) Unpack and remove shipping carton, tape(s) and packing.
2) Check that the refrigerant lines do not rub or touch lines or other surfaces, and that the
fan blade moves freely.
[b] LOCATION
The condenser unit must be positioned in a permanent site under the following guidelines.
•A firm and flat site.
•A dry and well ventilated area with 24" clearance on both front and rear for ease of main-
tenance and service should they be required.
•Normal condenser ambient temperature: -20°F to +122°F. Temperatures not within this
operating range may affect the production capacity of the icemaker.
•The maximum line length for the standard refrigerant charge is 66 feet.Should an instal-
lation require a longer line length, please call 1-800-233-1940 for recommendations
concerning the correct additional refrigerant charge to be added.
Note: If the recommended guidelines of the installation are exceeded,
the icemaker performance may be reduced.

[c] SET UP
1) Secure the Legs to the condenser unit with eight M8 x 16 mm Hexagon Bolts and M8
Nuts as shown in the illustration. See Fig. 6.
Note:Locate the Legs symmetrically.
2)The Legs have eight mounting holes. Secure the Legs with eight bolts (not included).
3) Install enough length of two copper tubings provided with Aeroquip couplings between
theicemakerand the condenser unit. The twocoppertubingsshouldbe insulated sepa-
rately. See Fig.7.
•Precharged tubing kits, available as optional equipment from HOSHIZAKI AMERICA,
are recommended .
4) Line sets fabricated in the field should be evacuated through the charging ports on the
Aeroquip couplings and charged with R-404A refrigerant vapor to a pressure of 15 - 30
PSIG.
Note:Factory fabricated tubing kits are precharged and do not need to be evacuated.
5)Remove the plastic caps protecting thecouplings. Attach the two refrigerant lines tothe
male couplings on the icemaker and the remote condenser unit. Each refrigerant line
must be connected as follows:
Icemaker discharge refrigerant line - 1/2" OD tubing to “DIS” of condenser unit
Icemaker liquid refrigerant line - 3/8" OD tubing to “LIQ” of condenser unit
Note:Make the connections at the remote condenser first and then at the icemaker.

7. WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN CONNECTIONS - See Fig. 10
IMPORTANT
To preventdamagetothepumpassembly,donotoperatetheicemakerwhen
the water supply is OFF, or if the pressure is below 10 PSIG. Do not run the
icemaker until the proper water pressure is reached.
•Water supply inlet is 1/2" female pipe thread (FPT).
Note: On water-cooled model, two water supply inlets are provided.
One is for the icemaker, and the other is for the water-cooled
condenser.
•A water supply line shut-off valve and drain valve should be installed. A minimum of 1/2"
OD copper tubing is recommended for the water supply lines.
•Water supply pressure should be a minimum of 10 PSIG and a maximum of 113 PSIG. If
the pressure exceeds 113 PSIG, the use of a pressure reducing valve is required.
•Drain outlet for icemaker dump is 3/4" FPT. The drain for condensation is a 3/8" ID pipe.
The icemaker drain and the condenser drain piping connections must be made sepa-
rately from the bin drain.
Note: On water-cooled model, a 1/2" FPT is provided for the condenser drain outlet.
•The drains must have 1/4" fall per foot on horizontal runs to get a good flow.
•The drains should not be piped directly to the sewer system.An air gap of a minimum of
2 vertical inches should be between the end of the drain pipe from the icemaker or the
ice bin and the floor drain.
•This icemaker should be installed in accordance with applicable national, state and local
regulations.
•A plumbing permit and services of a licensed plumber may be required in some areas.
•In some areas, a back flow preventer may be required in the cooling water circuit.
