Approximate Ice Production (lbs/day)
1. Factory specifications for ice production
60 lbs., bucket size 35 lbs.
2. The storage bin that holds the ice is not
refrigerated. The cubes in the bin are slowly
melting down. The bin will maintain a temperature
of 32 to 34 degrees.
3. The unit is designed for a built-in application, so
the warm air will discharge out the bottom of the
unit below the door. There is a safety feature built
into the control board that will shut the unit down if
the warm air cannot be dissipated.
4. The standpipe needs to be inserted into the drain
hole of the water trough to maintain the proper
level of water inside the trough.
5. Check to be sure switch is in ice mode.
Once the unit is turned on, there will be a three
minute water fill. This will assure that a fresh batch
of water has filled the trough. If water flows more
than three minutes a service call will be required.
6. The manner in which the ice is made causes a
small hole or "dimple" to appear on the front or top
of the cube. Increasing or decreasing the time of
the freeze cycle will adjust the size of the dimple. A
service company will need to make this
adjustment.
