Water Fill Adjustment
Many of compact icemakers used today are equipped with a water fill adjustment.
Turning the fill adjustment screw changes the alignment between the cam and switch
and alters the amount of time the fill switch is energized. One full turn of the screw in
either direction changes the fill ±13 cc’s (approximate).
To Start a Harvest Cycle

Manual Cycle Initiation
The icemaker ejection cycle is initiated by the thermostat. If, however, the icemaker
is not ejecting, it will be necessary to manually initiate an ice ejection cycle.
After removing the front cover, turn the motor shaft (small gear) ½ turn in the counter-
clockwise direction. This will rotate the cam enough to transfer the hold switch and
provide power to the motor. If the thermostat is closed at this time, the heater will
likewise be energized and the icemaker will complete the cycle.
After manual initiation, carefully feel the bottom of the mold. It should begin to heat. If
it doesn’t, either the thermostat has not yet closed or the heater is open.
