FOR THE INSTALLER: Machine & Bin Assembly

Overview:

This ice system is comprised of 2 major
assemblies:

1. The ice storage bin.

2. The ice maker itself.

Storage Bin:

1. Measure the location of the ice machine floor
drain relative to the installed location of the bin. 

2. Using corner posts from the bin’s carton as a
cushion, lay the bin on its back.

3. Install the casters into the leg mounting holes.

4. Move bin back to an upright position.

5. Align the back set of casters so that the wheel’s
axles are in a line with each other. This will permit
the bin to be rolled back and forth. Check the
casters so that they are tight against the bottom of
the bin. Do not extend the casters past the
horizontal groove in the caster shank. 

6. Remove all material that is packed inside the bin.

7. Hang the scoop and scoop holder from the front
edge of the bin.

Ice Maker:

1. Arrange for proper electric, water and drain.

See instructions for the plumber and for the
electrician.

2. Position the ice storage bin in the selected
location. 

3. Level the bin, in both the front to rear and side
to side directions. Tighten the caster set screws
when the leveling is complete.

4. Inspect the bin top mounting gasket which
should be flat, with no wrinkles, to provide a  good
water seal when the cuber is installed  on top of
the bin. 

5. Install the modular cuber on top of the bin using
care to be sure a good seal is made between the
two cabinets, use of a mechanical lift is
recommended. Align the holes in the bottom back
of the cabinet to mate with the two mounting straps
on the top rear of the bin.  

6. Use bolts and straps found in the hardware
package to secure the ice machine to the ice
storage bin. Attach the bin bumpers to the bin with
the bolt holding the mounting strap to the bin.
When alignment and leveling are completed,
tighten the bolts to secure the mounting straps.
