Maintenance
General
You are responsible for maintaining the ice machine
in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
Maintenance procedures are not covered by the
warranty.
WARNING
If you do not understand the procedures or the
safety precautions that must be followed, call your
local Manitowoc service representative to perform
the maintenance procedures for you.
We recommend that you perform the following
maintenance procedures every six months to ensure
reliable, trouble-free operation and maximum ice
production.
ICE MACHINE INSPECTION
WARNING
Disconnect electric power to the ice machine before
cleaning the condenser.
Check all water fittings and lines for leaks. Also,
make sure the refrigeration tubing is not rubbing or
vibrating against other tubing, panels, etc.
Do not put anything (boxes, etc.) in front of the ice
machine. There must be adequate airflow through
and around the ice machine to maximize ice
production and ensure long component life.
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the area around the ice machine as often as
necessary to maintain cleanliness and efficient
operation.
Sponge any dust and dirt off the outside of the ice
machine with mild soap and water. Wipe dry with a
clean, soft cloth.
