NOTE: The purge drain fitting is plastic: DO NOT apply heat to purge drain area; DO NOT over-tighten drain 

connection.

All drain lines must be installed per local codes. The purge drain should be a minimum of 3/4 inch O.D. tubing. The 
condenser drain on water cooled units should be 1/2 inch O.D. minimum. The drain line fittings on Cornelius bins are 
3/4 FPT. The bin drain should be a minimum of 3/4 inch O.D. Cold water drains should be insulated to prevent con-
densation from forming.

EQUIREMENTS

Self-contained air cooled ice machines must have a minimum of 6 inches (15cm) of clearance at the rear, top, and 
sides for proper air circulation and adequate space for serviceability.

Self-contained air-cooled ice machines exhaust air out of the top and right side. There are two alternative air exhaust 
options. Option A (top exhaust bias): minimum of 6 inches (15cm) of clearance at the rear and top of the ice machine 
for proper function at maximum operating conditions. Option B (side exhaust bias): minimum of 6 inches (15cm) of 
clearance at the rear and right side of the ice machine with a minimum of 3 inches (7.5cm) of clearance at the top for 
proper function at maximum operating conditions.

Appropriate space should be allowed for proper serviceability of the machine. Excess time to gain access for service-
ability is 

not covered under warranty.

S

TACKING

Cornelius does not endorse stacking ice machines.

 A

PPLICATION

A thermostatic bin control kit should be installed if the ice machine is placed on a dispenser. A bin top may or may not 
be required and should be secured to the dispenser.

E

LECTRICAL

 S

PECIFICATIONS

Refer to the serial plate at the rear of the ice machine to make sure proper voltage and circuit breaker size have been 
supplied. Make sure the machine is on a dedicated circuit. European installations require that the electrical supply 
fixed wiring must be provided with a disconnect means having a separation of at least 3mm in all poles. The ice 
machines are provided 

without

 an electrical cord set and are designed and agency approved to be permanently con-

nected.

NOTE: Units are not approved for GFI outlets.

CAUTION

!

 Electrical connection must be made or a cord installed by a qualified electrician or there is danger of an electrical 
fire.

A

DJUSTMENTS

Level the machine within 1/8 inch in all directions. Check the water in the Water Sump for proper level.

Check the ice bridge for proper thickness. Check the Water Regulating Valve adjustment if water cooled.

Secure the machine on top of the bin or dispenser. Attach the ice machine to the bin with the mounting straps pro-
vided with the bin or dispenser. Insure that the back of the ice machine is flush with the back of the bin. Proper func-
tioning of the Bin Door requires the door, when it is opened, to be in a stable position.

If the ice machine is too far forward on the bin, the opened door may not be stable, resulting in an unexpected closing 
of the bin door. If the ice machine is to be mounted on a bin or dispenser other than a Cornelius, refer to the manufac-
turers instructions for machine mounting. Cornelius will not be responsible for damage or injury that results from unex-
pected closing of the bin door as a result of the ice machine being too far forward on the bin.
