TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO Y0UR ICE MACHINE
AND/OR VOID YOUR WARRANTY, FOLLOW ALL
WATER SUPPLY GUIDELINES AS LISTED BELOW.
PREPARE PLUMBING
The water valve uses a standard 1/4” (6.35 mm)
compression fitting. U-Line recommends using accessory
water hook up kit – part # 80-54674-00. The kit includes
a 10’ (3 m) braided flexible water supply line and a brass
hose fitting.
Plumbing installation must observe all state
and local codes. All water and drain connections
MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing
contractor. Failure to follow recommendations
and instructions may result in damage and/or
harm.
Water Supply
When connecting the water supply, please note the
following:
•
Water Mineral Content must meet the following:
◦
TDS: less than 200 ppm (mg/l)
◦
Hardness: Less than 200 mg/l (12 gpg)
• Water supply MUST NOT be from a water
softener.
•
A TDS meter is included with your unit
• Water Treatment Options
◦
TDS level of 200 ppm or higher and/or a
hardness of 12-19 gpg can be treated by U-Line’s in-line
water filter accessories available at u-line.com or your

Measure Water TDS
Every Nugget Ice Machine comes with a TDS meter similar
to the one below. The TDS meter measures the
Total
Dissolved Solids
level that exists in the water supply; this
is measured in ppm (parts per million).
The TDS meter does not test the toxicity of
the water and is not to be used to determine
potability. A TDS METER CANNOT DETECT THE
TOXINS THAT MAKE WATER UNSAFE TO DRINK.
1. Turn on sink faucet and let run for 30 seconds.
2. Fill a clean glass (2 inches of water is sufficient).
3.
Remove cap from meter.
4. Turn on meter and immerse meter into the water.
5.
Leave meter immersed for 30 seconds.
6.
Remove meter and check the readout for the TDS
level in ppm - to save the reading, press the hold
button.
7. Turn off meter, dry off, and replace cap.
