INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Leveling legs

Adjustable legs at the front and rear corners of the ice maker should be set so the ice 
maker is firmly positioned on the floor and level from side to side and front to back. The 
overall height of your DCS ice maker may be adjusted from 33 3/4” (857mm) with the 
leveling legs turned in, and up to 34 3/4” (883mm) with the leveling legs extended.

To adjust the leveling legs, place the ice maker on a solid surface and protect the floor 
beneath the legs to avoid scratching the floor. With the assistance of another person, 
lean the ice maker back to access the front leveling legs. Raise or lower the legs to the 
required dimension by turning the legs. Repeat this process for the rear by tilting the ice 
maker forward using caution to prevent the door from opening. On a level surface check 
the ice maker for levelness and adjust accordingly.

The front grille screws may be loosened and the front grille adjusted to the desired 
height. When adjustment is complete tighten the two front grille screws.
