Chapter 4 – Operating Procedures: Ice Building
The following provides direction on how to use the Zamboni FastICE system to perform an Ice Building
operation.
1. Fill the Ice Making Water tank to 100% full.
2. Turn Master Power Switch ON
3. Leave Conditioner Raised in the Air
3.a.
For best ice building results, we recommend that you leave the conditioner raised during an
ice-building session.
4. Turn Ice Making Water Spray ON
4.a.
Turn on the Ice Making Water Flow for both the Upper and Lower Boom.
5. Set Desired Spray Thickness
5.a.
Adjust the spray thickness according to ice making conditions.
6. Use BLAST Switch for Leveling
6.a.
To apply additional spray to low areas, press the Blast button while passing over the target
area.
7. Turn Ice Making Water Spray OFF
7.a.
Turn the spray switch to the OFF position when all areas of the ice have water applied and
the resurfacing session is complete.
8. Drain Ice Making Water Tank
8.a.
To ensure that only hot water is used for ice making, we recommend that the ice making
water tank be emptied follow each ice resurfacing session.
Note:
•
For best results, and to reduce spray “drifting”, we recommend a consistent ground speed
during resurfacing of 5 MPH (8 km/h).
•
Turn the boom control switches OFF when driving over applied areas to avoid uneven ice
thickness resulting from multiple spray passes over the same area.
