Rocking Chute Ice Dispensing
As the customer presses the rocking chute, the arm at
the top left rear of the chute pushes upward on the door
lock. The door opens until it contacts the stops in the
mounting brackets. The plastic arm on the ice chute also
activates the lever of the ice dispensing switch. When
activated, the micro switch starts the gear motor. The
gear motor turns the paddle wheel and agitator bar.
OPERATION CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS
Rocking Chute Ice Delivery Switch Adjustment
To properly adjust the switch, first unplug the power cord
to the unit then remove the merchandiser. This will give
you access to the ice delivery switch located on the left
side of the rocking chute.
Begin by observing the chute by slowly pushing against
the rocking chute. When the ice delivery switch clicks,
measure the distance from the door stops on the rocking
chute bracket to the door. The distance between the two
should be no more than 1/4", but no less than 1/16".

The left side of the rocking chute has a tab that pushes
up on the ice delivery switch. To adjust it, use needle
nose pliers and bend the arm of the switch up or down in
order to change the point where the tab makes contact
with the switch arm.
