INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

3

Clearance Requirements

Self-contained air cooled ice machines should 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 of the unit. By use of 
SMART HARNESS™ technology, 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 serviceability is not covered under 
warranty. 

Stacking

Ice-O-Matic does not endorse stacking ice 
machines.

Dispenser Application

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

Electrical Specifications

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 connected.

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.

Adjustments

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 provided with the bin or dispenser. 
Insure that the back of the ice machine is flush with 
the back of the bin. Proper functioning 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 an Ice-O-Matic, refer to the 
manufacturers instructions for machine mounting. 
Ice-O-Matic will not be responsible for damage or 
injury that results from unexpected closing of the 
bin door as a result of the ice machine being too far 
forward on the bin.
