attach the hinge covers.
1. Slide the hinge cover over each hinge.
2. Attach the side cover over the hinge by peeling off the covering over the

adhesive and placing it over the side of the hinge.

KICKPLATE

The kickplate is black with a stainless steel covering. To use the stainless steel, no changes are required. To use the black,
remove the stainless steel covering by removing the two stainless steel screws. Replace with supplied black screws.

DO NOT

remove stainless steel covering if ice machine is used outdoors.

INSTALLATION NOTES

Built In Situations:

If a finished floor is to be installed in the area after the ice machine has been built in, shims the expected

thickness of the floor should be installed under the unit to keep the machine level with the planned floor level.

Installations on a slab:

Use a pump model and pump the water to the point of drainage. Pump models will pump 1 story

(10 feet) high.

Installations over a crawl space or basement:

Either gravity drain or pump model units may be used, if there is not

enough room behind the machine for a drain/waste receptacle, the drain will have to be below the floor.
