• The mold heater has warmed the thermostat, so the

thermostat opens, and the mold heater is de-ener-
gized.

• If the shut-off arm comes to rest on top of the ice in

the storage bin (as illustrated), so the shut-off
switch will remain in the “normally closed” position.

• The motor remains energized through the holding

switch.

 (See Figure 6-10)

• The water valve solenoid switch is tripped by the

timing cam.  This time the solenoid is energized
because the thermostat is open.  The water sole-
noid is open for approximately seven seconds, fill-
ing the ice mold with water.

• the mold heater is energized through the solenoid

switch and holding switch.
