When the storage bin is filled, bin thermostat opens.
Start the unit by turning the service switch to ?ON? l Cutter grid remains on
and opening the line water valve.

The unit will make up to 25 kg. (55 Ibs.)of Ice per day
Check condenser fan to make sure It is revolving
under ideal conditions. These conditions are: (1) Room
temperature 21°C (70°F); (2) Water temperature 1 OoC
Water will not enter pump pan until freezing plate
gets cold and machine goes Into a harvest cycle. (5OOF).
As the room and water temperatures vary, so will the
