Water Level Check
The float valve is factory-set for the proper water level.
If adjustments are necessary:
1. Verify the ice machine is level.
2. Remove the siphon cap from the standpipe.
3. Place the main ON/OFF/WASH toggle switch to
the ON position, and wait until the float valve
stops adding water.
4. Adjust the water level to [1/4" to 3/8"
(6.3 to 9.5 mm) below the standpipe] the line in
the water trough:
A. Loosen the two screws on the float valve
bracket.
B. Raise or lower the float valve assembly as
necessary, then tighten the screws.
5. Move the main ON/OFF/WASH toggle switch to
the OFF position. The water level in the trough will
rise above the standpipe and run down the drain.
6. Replace the siphon cap on the standpipe, and
verify water level and siphon action by repeating
steps 3 through 5.
Ice Thickness Check
After a harvest cycle, inspect the ice cubes in the ice
storage bin. The ice thickness probe is set to maintain
an ice bridge of 1/8" (3.2 mm). If an adjustment is
needed, follow the steps below.
1. Turn the ice thickness probe adjustment screw
clockwise for a thicker ice bridge, or
counterclockwise for a thinner ice bridge.
