OPERATION
Water
Water enters the machine through the 3/8" male
flare at the rear of the cabinet, goes to the water
reservoir which it enters through the float valve.
The water then goes out the bottom of the
reservoir tank to the bottom of the evaporator.
Reservoir overflow or evaporator condensation is
routed to the drain.
Water cooled models have a separate water circuit
for the cooling water: it enters the fitting at the rear,
goes to the water regulating valve, then to the
water cooled condenser and then down the drain.

WATER LEVEL
Note: The water level may be checked by comparing
the level of water in the reservoir to the line molded
into the side of the reservoir. The water level should
be between
1
8
" above and
1
4
" below the line.
The water level may be adjusted by bending the arm
of the float as needed.
