CLEANING
Remote Condenser
1. Shut off the ice machine.
2. Remove dirt and debris that might be under the
condenser.
3. Brush off the bottom of the condenser fins. Do
not use a wire brush.
4. Check to see that the inside of the condenser is
clean; light should be visible through the fins. If
not, clean the internal parts by vacuum, pressure
washer and/or coil cleaner.
Ice Storage Bin
The interior liner of the bin is in contact with a food
grade product: ice. The storage bin must be
cleaned regularly to maintain a sanitary
environment. Once a week cleaning with soap and
water, a hot water rinse and and air dry is a basic
procedure. Scale that may form on the plastic liner
of a bin may be removed by scrubbing the surface
of the line with a mixture of Scotsman Ice Machine
Cleaner and hot water. Remove any scale prior to
sanitizing.
To remove scale:
1. Mix a cleaning solution of 4 ounces of Scotsman
Ice Machine Cleaner to 4 pints of hot (95
0
F. to
110
0
F.) water.
2. Remove all ice from the bin.
3. Using rubber gloves, dip a nylon scouring pad
into the cleaning solution, and scub the scale off of
the liner.
4. After the scale has been removed, rinse all of
the surfaces inside the bin with clean, potable
water.
To sanitize the bin and ice machine:
Follow local codes for frequency of sanitizing. Use
an approved sanitizer and follow the directions and
warnings of that santitizer or use the following
instructions for use of household bleach, if it meets
local codes:
1. Remove all ice from the bin.
2. Mix a sanitizing solution of 1 ounce of
household bleach to 2 gallons of water.
3. Using clean rubber gloves and a clean cloth,
wipe all interior surfaces of the ice machine and
ice storage bin with the sanitizing solution.
Immerse any small parts in the sanitizing solution
and wash the parts, flushing the solution
thoroughly in, over and through all parts and
surfaces of the parts being cleaned.
4. Allow to air dry.
The fan blade can cause
personal injury.
