Stacking Kit - KSCME6-LG-B
Only like models may be stacked. Begin after the
bottom unit has been placed on the ice storage
bin and secured. Stacking requires heavy duty leg
kits. Casters are NOT recommended.
Note: Instructions are for either model.
Bottom Machine:
1. Remove front panel, left side panel, and top
panel.
2. Remove & discard top cover from over the
freezing compartment.
3. Install gasket materials to freezing compartment:
Cut about 22" of gasket material from the roll in
the kit. Apply it to the back side top edge of the
freezing compartment.
Cut two lengths of gasket material to fit the right
side top edge of the freezing compartment and
apply them.
4. Place a bead of food grade sealant to the top of
the back wall’s gasket.
5. Place the shield bracket (has a large hole in the
center) from the kit over the center of the freezing
compartment.
Insert the tabs of the bracket into slots on the
back of the unit.
6. Secure bracket at the front with screws from the
kit.
7. Hang the plastic shields from the bracket
installed in the prior step. Use the slots in the
shields to hang them from the stainless steel
hooks.
Note: The notch in the bottom of the shield goes
to the front.
Note: The tabs on the shields must fit inside the
ice outlet port.
8. Check the position of the shields. They must
move freely and be vertical.
Note: The suction line may need to be moved
slightly so the tubing clears the bracket & shields.
9. Place a bead of food grade sealant onto the top
left edge of the freezing compartment.
10. Install the front-to-back support bracket over
the left edge of the freezing compartment.
11. Remove two existing screws and secure the
bracket to the: freezing compartment, back panel
and front channel with the 2 existing screws and 1
large and 4 small screws from the kit.
Both Machines:
12. Place the top ice machine onto the bottom one.
Secure together with hardware from the top
machine. Remove left front and left side panels.
13. At the back of the ice machines, on the
compressor end, remove the upper knock-out from
the bottom machine and the lower knock out from
the upper machine.
14. Place a strain relief (from the kit) into each hole.
15. Insert wire harness from kit thru strain-relief
and hole in upper corner of the lower ice machine’s
back panel.
NOTE: Harness is marked which end goes to
which machine.
Bottom Machine:
16. Remove harness from controller terminal 7 and
bin thermostat.
17. Route wire harness in lower ice machine to the
controller. Connect to terminal #7. Plug the two free
wires onto the thermostat terminals #1 and #2.
18. Return left side panel to its original position on
the lower ice machine.
Top Machine:
19. Remove harness from controller terminal 7.
20. Route wire harness thru upper unit’s lower
knock-out hole and strain relief and continue
internally to the controller. Plug wire onto terminal 7
of the controller.
21. Return all panels and covers to their normal
positions.
22. Complete the balance of the installation.
Service Notes:
A. The shields must be positioned so they hang
vertically and move freely left to right. Their
purpose is to guide the ice past the bottom
machine’s evaporators and into its cube port.
B. The drain lines from each ice machine must be
kept separate.
