Inspection.
As soon as you receive your machine, inspect it for any damage. If damage is
suspected, note it on the shipper’s papers (i.e., the trucker’s Bill of Lading).

the machine without the permission of Vogt Ice L.L.C. can void the machine’s warranty. You
should also notify your Vogt distributor or the factory.
Description Of Machine.
A Vogt package Tube-Ice

machine is a complete ice producing plant
requiring only make-up water supply, condenser water supply, electrical connection, and the proper
refrigerant charge.
The machine has been fully factory tested prior to shipment and should require minimum adjustment.
After factory testing of the machine, the liquid ammonia is removed and only ammonia gas pressure
is allowed to remain. This prevents air or moisture from entering the system during transit. There
should be a positive pressure (20-25 psig) indicated on the control panel gages when the machine is
received.
The compressor oil is drained and the compressor suction strainer and cloth filter are cleaned and
reinstalled. The crankcase is inspected and cleaned by removing the side handhold cover, swabbing
out the remaining oil and wiping the interior sides and bottom with a clean dry cloth. Do not use
woolen fabrics or material which may leave loose fibers. New oil is added and the compressor is
evacuated then pressurized with ammonia vapor to 20-25 psig.
Refer to your compressor manual for additional operation, service, maintenance instructions, and
information.
Safety Tags and Labels.
Be sure to read and adhere to all special tags and labels attached to valves
or applied to various areas of the machine. They provide important information necessary for safe
and efficient operation of your equipment.
