Crushed Ice Production.
Your 05TA Tube-Ice
®
machine is capable of producing crushed ice with
no loss of capacity. However, there are certain changes to be made in order to convert to crushed ice
production:
1. Add new 5:1 gear reducer and 3/4 HP cutter motor (1140 RPM @60hz)
2. Reverse cutter direction.
3. Reverse deflector.
4. Change the freezer pressure switch setting to make ice 3/16” thick (average).
This conversion process should normally be accomplished by two people in 3-4 hours (or less).
There must be ample room around the machine for the water tank removal.
It is recommended that you have good quality water when attempting to produce crushed ice. If the
ice is opaque and cloudy, it is subject to clog the cutter mechanism restrict ice discharge and bind
the cutter. Refer to Technical Service Bulletin No. 88-5, page 9-24.
Also, you should not attempt to produce crushed ice when the make-up water temperature is below
50
° F (10 ° C). Colder water can cause a build-up of ice fines in the tank and eventually result in
“short-cycling”.
