Location & Assembly
Air cooled models take room temperature air in
from the sides and discharge warm air out the
back. Do not place them where the heat and noise
will be objectionable.
A 6 inch
MINIMUM
clearance on the back, and
both sides is required for the basic operation and
service of the air cooled model.
Note: A six inch side clearance with zero top
clearance will NOT provide enough air exchange
space for optimum performance. 12 inches side
clearance is required when there is no top
clearance.
Unpacking and Assembly:
Begin with unpacking the ice storage bin. Remove
the carton, and using part of the carton as a
cushion, tip the bin on its back to remove the skid
and attach the legs or casters.
Note: Stacked applications may not use casters.
Return the bin to an upright position. Check the bin
top gasket for gaps and tears, fill any in with food
grade sealant prior to placing the ice machine on
the bin.
Level the top edge of the bin front to back and
left to right.
If the ice machine has not been unpacked, do so
now. Remove the carton from the skid. After
removal of the shipping straps, lift the ice machine
off the skid directly onto the bin.
Note: The machine is heavy! Use a mechanical
hoist if necessary.
Secure the ice machine to the bin with the
hardware provided (two metal straps and 4 bolts).
Air cooled models come equipped with a baffle
that can be used when the machine is installed
in a corner.
The purpose of the baffle is to limit air
recirculation. This can occur in a corner when the
hot air from the back of the machine is re-drawn
back into the machine from the nearest side of the
machine.
Install the air baffle as shown. Place the baffle:
•
On the left rear corner when the left wall and
back wall are between 6 and 18 inches from
the unit.
•
On the right rear corner when the right wall
and back are between 6 and 18 inches from
the unit.
