Operational Checks
GENERAL
Manitowoc ice machines are factory-operated and
adjusted before shipment. Normally, a newly installed ice
machine does not require any adjustment.
To ensure proper operation, always follow the
Operational Checks:
•
when starting the ice machine for the first time
•
after a prolonged out of service period
•
after cleaning and sanitizing
NOTE: Routine adjustments and maintenance
procedures outlined in this manual are not covered by
the warranty.
Blue Light
The blue light on the dispensing spout is energized
when the toggle switch is in the ICE position and the ice
machine is operational. If the light is not energized the
ice machine will not make ice. Refer to section 5
Customer Support if the ice machine has power and the
light will not energize.
Toggle Switch
The toggle switch must be placed in the ON position to
make ice.
Water Reservoir
The water reservoir must be 2/3 full of water and the
water sensing float must be up (switch closed) before
the ice machine will start.
Ice Production
Allow the ice machine to produce ice for 15 minutes
before testing the dispense mechanism. This will insure
a sufficient quantity of ice in the bin for dispensing.
