FOR THE INSTALLER
INITIAL START UP
1. Remove the front panel.
2. Locate the System Controller.
3. Switch on the electrical power. Note that the LED or
indicator lights all flashed on briefly.
4. Open the water supply valve.
5. Push and release the Freeze cycle push button (the Freeze
indicator light will blink until the compressor starts). The
next several operations are automatic.
Initial Start (30 seconds)
The Freeze light will begin to blink.
The inlet water valve will open to fill the reservoir and will
shut off when the reservoir is full.
The water pump starts to pump water.
The inlet water valve opens again to refill the reservoir.
After 30 seconds the compressor starts.
Freeze Cycle:
The Freeze indicator light will come on. The machine will
stay in a Freeze cycle for many minutes.
Under certain low temperature conditions, the pump may
stop for a few seconds. After that the inlet water valve will
refill the reservoir.
The fan motor (of air cooled models) will begin to turn and
soon warm air will be forced out the back of the cabinet.
Harvest Cycle:
The Harvest indicator light will be ON,
The hot gas valve will open.
The water pump will stop. It will restart in less than a
minute.
The Inlet water valve will open. The machine will fill the
reservoir and overflow it for a specified number of seconds
then shut off.
The Bin Full indicator light will go on and off as ice falls
from the evaporators.
6. After a few minutes the machine will return to a freeze
cycle.
7. Replace the front panel.
8. Give the owner/user the manual, instruct him/her in the
operation of the unit, and make sure they know who to call
for service.
Notes On Operation:
1. The electric eyes signal the ice machine to shut off
whenever the bin becomes full. After the eyes sense that
there is ice between them, the ice machine will shut off at
the end of the next harvest cycle. This last harvest cycle will
be longer than the rest.
2. The ice machine will not restart after the bin has filled up
for 4 minutes.
3. If the bin controls sense a bin full signal before any water
is used (float stem up), the machine will shut off on bin full.
How To Operate The System Controller
The System Controller is a microprocessor device that
receives input from several sources and switches various
components on and off.
Its manual control is thru the use of the Push Button Control
Switches
