When routing pre-charged line set, make sure that couplings are lubricated with refrigerant oil to assure proper
trouble free assemble.

1. Remove dust cap and plugs if used, making sure that component synthetic seals are intact.
2. Wipe off coupling seals and threaded surfaces with a clean cloth to prevent the inclusion of dirt or any for-
eign material in the system.
3. LUBRICATE rubber seal in male half with refrigeration oil. Thread coupling halves together by hand to in-
sure proper mating of threads, Use proper size wrenches (on coupling body hex and on union nut) and
tighten until coupling bodies “bottom”or a definite resistance is felt. Using a marker or ink pen, mark a line
lengthwise from the coupling hex to the bulkhead. then tighten an additional 1/6 to 1/4 turn. The misalign-
ment of the line will show the degree of tightening. This final turn is necessary to insure that the knife edge
metal seal bites into the brass seat of the coupling halves, forming the leakproof joint. If torque wrench is
used, the following torque values are recommended:
Coupling Size
Ft. Lbs.
--8
35
--12

Routing of line sets are a very important factor in trouble free installation.
1. Make sure condenser will be located above the icemaker.
2. Route line sets to keep excess tubing inside of building.
3. When coiling excess tubing make sure coils runs vertically with the flow of refrigerant.
ELECTRICAL
(see figure 4 )
A 4 X 2 junction box is located at the rear of the unit for the supply hook-up. Connect the icemaker to its’own
individual circuit per the National Electric Code and Local Code (see SPECIFICATIONS for ampacity and fuse
size).
IMPORTANT: The wire size must be adequate for the ampacity rating and the supply voltage must be
within a range of
±
10% for proper icemaker operation.
NOTE: That the unit requires a 2-wire systems plus earth ground for proper operation.
