Disassembly ID-0300
Removal and Replacement of Ice Hopper, Extruder, Auger, & Evaporator
▪
Housing & Mechanical Seal
The mechanical seal (carbon and spring) rest at the bottom of the auger shaft. The ceramic portion of the seal rests on
top of the lower housing. If the contact surfaces of these two parts are worn or scratched, a leak will occur and must be
replaced.
1. At this point the Auger should have already been removed from the evaporator and the
mechanical seal can be removed from the bottom of the auger.
2. With the evaporator assembly separated from the housing, the ceramic portion of the
seal can be removed from the bottom of the evaporator.
3. Remove the 4 bolts securing the housing to the gearbox.
4. Lift up on the housing to remove it and reveal the coupling.

the 4 bolts at the bottom of the housing.
3. Removing the housing will gain access to the coupling at the bottom of the gearbox.

To prevent water leakage, do not scratch the surface of the O-ring, and care should be
taken to prevent contamination between the carbon and ceramic seals.
