Installation

Assembly:

1. Attach the legs, or optional casters, onto the ice
storage bin. Units that are stacked should only use
legs, not casters.

2. Place the ice machine onto the storage bin.

3. Line up the ice machine, check that there is a
good seal between the ice machine and the
storage bin.

4. If on a Scotsman bin, attach the ice machine to
the bin using the straps and bolts shipped with the
ice machine. If on another brand bin, follow the
directions included with that bin.

Bin Thermostat Installation:

1. Remove rubber cap from the end of the
thermostat bracket.

2. Attach the bin thermostat bracket to the bottom
of the ice machine using the thumb screws
provided. There are pre-drilled and tapped holes
located just behind the cube drop area. The end of
the bin thermostat bracket with the plastic tubing
on it will fit into the hole in the base of the machine.

3. Locate and uncoil a portion of the bin thermostat
capillary tube. Route the end of the capillary tube
into and through the bin thermostat bracket tube. It
should be inserted the full length of the tube, but
not past the end.

Stacking:

This machine will stack onto any CM250,
CME250, CM450, CM500, CME500, CM650 or
CME650 with the same cabinet depth (24").

1. Remove and discard the top panel from the
lower unit.

2. Carefully lift the uncrated top unit onto the
bottom unit. Use of a mechanical lift is
recommended for this step.

3. Align the two ice maker cabinets.

4. Secure the top unit to the bottom one with the
hardware and straps shipped with the upper
machine.

5. Locate and uncoil all of the bin thermostat
capillary tube.

6. Route the bin thermostat capillary tube from the
upper unit, through the hole in the back of the
reservoir, through the lower unit and into the bin
thermostat bracket. Discard upper unit bracket.
