Note: The water leakage will exceed the above amount with scale/dirt build up or damage
on the mating surface. Replace the mechanical seal when the water leakage
exceeds 0.5 mL/h.
4. GEAR MOTOR
After the following hours of operation, check the gear motor for excessive noise caused by
increased torque or deterioration of mechanical parts.
Bearing, gear and other mechanical parts:
10,000 hours
Oil seal:
5 years
Note: When the output shaft oil seal is exposed to a large amount of water at one time,
water may enter the gear case. Always drain the water circuit before removing the
auger for service.
5. CONDENSER (AIR-COOLED MODEL ONLY)
Check the condenser once a year, and clean if required by using a brush or vacuum cleaner.
More frequent cleaning may be required depending on the location of the icemaker.
6. AIR FILTER (AIR-COOLED MODEL ONLY)
Plastic mesh air filters remove dirt or dust from the air, and keep the condenser from
getting clogged. If the filters get clogged, the icemaker’s performance will be reduced.
Remove and clean the air filters at least twice per month:
1)
Slide the air filter off the louver.
2)
Clean the air filter by using a vacuum cleaner. When severely clogged, use warm water
and a neutral cleaner to wash the air filter.
3)
Rinse and dry the air filter thoroughly, and place it in position.
