Baffle Operation
The baffle controls the flow of ice into lower door assembly
area for removal with either a scoop or shovel. The baffle
can also be adjusted and locked at one of several levels to
accommodate flow characteristics of different types of ice.
Bin is shipped with the baffle in full down position. The
baffle can be raised and locked in higher position for better
flow or when more access is needed
FOR MORE ICE
If more ice is needed in lower door area:
1. Use full-length handle at top of the baffle to gently
lift and jiggle the baffle to encourage ice to flow into
access area of the bin. (Loose ice will cascade into lower
door area.)
2. When adequate ice has flowed, push the baffle back
down.
FOR MORE ACCESS
When more access is needed or to encourage flow of less
“slippery” ice:
1. Lock gate at higher level by pulling up and holding
the baffle at correct level, and pushing tapered end of
catch into nearest hole in gate (catch will automatically
release when you pull up).
2. To release catch, pull up on the baffle.
Using Ice Probe Tool Accessory
Ice probe tool is an optional accessory. If your bin has been
ordered with ice probe tool accessory, mount probe for
easy access on either side of bin in bracket provided.
If there is adequate ice in bin but lower door area is not
filled with ice, it may be that ice has congealed in bin and
cannot flow. This can often be remedied by quickly jiggling
the baffle several times (see preceding, Baffle Operation).
If problem continues, probe tool can be inserted through
rectangular openings in the baffle and agitated back and
forth to break up congealed ice mass
nWarning
Use probe tool only as described above. To avoid
possible injury, keep head and face clear of lower door
area and tool at all times. Do not use probe tool for
other purposes.
