Installation Guide for Scotsman Flaker
Check the following:
•Ambient temperature - minimum 10°C, maximum 40°C
•Adequate space at rear of machine for water and drain connections.
•Minimum airflow clearance requirement of 15cm to both sides of machine.
Note: if clearance is less, ice production rate could decrease by as much as 25% due to
potential overheating if an Air Cooled version is used
Service Connections:
Check ID on rear of machine for correct voltage (e.g. 230 volt 50 hz for UK use)
Check that the following services are within 1 metre of machine location:
•Cold water supply terminated with a ¾ BSP washing machine style stop valve.
•Mains drainage with a connection point lower then the drain outlet of the machine.
Connection point must be at least 1 ¼" diameter open and trapped (similar to a
domestic washing machine) with any connection made to include a suitable ‘back
flow’ prevention device to ‘EN1717’.
•If drain is too high, a stand or condensate pump must be used for the bin only !!
•Suitable Electrical Supply (Due to potential high starting current, any socket adaptor
with other appliances should not be used.)
Note: If an external condensate tank pump is to be used, then an additional 13 amp socket outlets
will be required.
•Unit –Connect unit electrical cable to either a suitable Plug & socket
arrangement or connect direct into a suitable rated electrical isolator
NOTE - Ensure electrical supply has a correctly rated Circuit Breaker at the
distribution unit
•Fit ¾ water inlet hose to the machine. Do not overtighten.
•Fit flexible drain hose to machine and secure using clips provided.
Note: Both hose’s are fitted with one straight end and one angled end. Use which ever is the most
suitable for this installation.
•Connect water inlet hose to water supply ‘stop valve’. Do not overtighten.
•Connect drain hose to main waste drain provided by inserting hose into
upstand (similar to domestic washing machine).
Note: To prevent drainage problems caused by loops in the hose, reduce hose length as far as
reasonably practicable
