Leveling

LEVELING THE UNIT

1

Use a level to check the levelness of the ice maker
from front to back and from side to side (see 

Figure

11

).

2

If the ice maker is not level, adjust the feet on the
corners of the unit as necessary (see 

Figure 12

).

3

Check the levelness after each adjustment and
repeat the previous steps until the unit is level.

It is extremely important that the unit is level. If it is not level, the ice mold will not fill
evenly. This can cause a reduction in ice rate, uneven sized cubes or water spilling into
the storage area which will cause the ice in the bin to melt pre-maturely. Remember that
floors near drains have a tendency to slope towards the drain.
