General Information And Installation

This model is supplied from the factory completely
pre-wired and require only electrical power
connections to the wire cord provided at rear of the
unit.

Make sure that the ice machine is connected to its
own circuit and individually fused (see data plate
for maximum fuse size). This is a cord-connected
unit designed for 115 volt AC power, with a
maximum fuse size of 15 amps.

Low voltage can cause improper operation and
may be responsible for serious damage to the
overload switch and motor windings that is not
covered by warranty.

NOTE. All external wiring should conform to
national, state and local standards and regulations.

Check voltage on the line and the ice maker’s data
plate before connecting the unit. Extension cords
must not be used.

Location:

If the unit is built into a cabinet with no

side ventilation, the ice production will be reduced
by 20% of rated capacity, restricted space of an
inch or so on each side will cause a 10%
reduction. Six inches of space to the left and right
will allow the unit to operate satisfactorily.

The daily ice-making capacity is directly related to
the condenser air inlet temperature, water
temperature, conditions of the condenser air filter
and age of the machine.

To keep your SCOTSMAN CUBER at peak
performance levels, periodic maintenance checks
must be carried out as indicated on Maintenance
and Cleaning section of this manual.

Warranty

The warranty statement for this product is provided
separately from this manual. Refer to it for
applicable coverage. In general warranty covers
defects in material or workmanship. It does not
cover maintenance, corrections to installations, or
situations when the machine is operated in
circumstances that exceed the limitations printed in
this manual.
