1. The bin control uses devices that sense
light, therefore they must be kept clean
enough so that they can “see”. At least twice a
year, remove the bin control sensors from the
base of the ice chute, and wipe the inside
clean, as illustrated.
2. The ice machine senses water level by a
probe located in the water reservoir. At least
twice a year, the probe should be removed
from the reservoir, and the tip wiped clean of
mineral buildup.

3. The bearing in the breaker should also be
checked at least two times per year.
A. Check the bearing by:

••

removing the ice chute cover

••

unscrewing the ice sweep

••

removing the water shed

••

using a spanner wrench and unscrewing
the breaker cover.  

••

unscrewing the auger stud

Inspect the assembly, looking for wear.
See Removal and Replacement to replace
bearing or seals. Reverse to reassemble. 
4. Check and tighten all bolts and screws.
