Operating Instructions
•
Startup: After proper installation, connect the water source and turn on the power supply to turn on the
machine. Confirm that the machine is operating normally when you turn it on for the first time.
•
Self-check: With power on for the first time, the ice maker will do a self-check and pump out any remaining
water.
•
Preparing: After the ice machine has finished the self-check, the inlet valve opens and the inlet water will flow
in until it reaches the set level; then the ice maker will defrost one time.
•
Ice making: After pre-cooling for 30 seconds, the water pump starts, the water flows through the evaporator
smoothly and evenly, and the ice cubes are gradually formed in the ice cube tray.
•
Ice harvest (drop): After the ice making process finishes and the water pump is turned o, the defrosting
valve is turned on. After the hot gas enters into the evaporator, for about 1-2 minutes the ice cubes slide from
the evaporator into the storage bin.
Warning: Do not put your hand into the ice storage bin during the ice-falling process to prevent the ice
from hitting your hand!
•
Shutdown: The ice maker will stop working when you push the “on/o” button on the control panel during the
running process.
•
Bin full stop: Once the ice storage bin is filled to a certain height, the ice making process will stop after 40
seconds. There is a sensor at the top of the bin which will trigger this stop in production. In order to maximize
the bin space, make sure to spread around the ice that piles up in front of the sensor.
•
Repeat ice making: When the ice cubes triggering this sensor are moved or taken away, the ice maker will go
back to the ice-making process within seconds.

How to Fix Machine Action
E03 Ice Harvest Overtime
If the unit can make ice after restarting the machine:
1. There is scale buildup in the evaporator. Clean the evaporator.
2. Ice being made is too thin or too thick. Adjust the ice thickness setting.
3. When a new batch of ice drops from the evaporator, does the timer on
the display panel reset to counting from 0? If not, and the timer keeps
counting up, this means that the ice full sensor is not sensing the batch of
ice falling. Replace the ice full sensor.
4. Verify LED lights on control board cycle ON/OFF when water curtain
is opened and closed by hand. If LEDs do not cycle ON/OFF, verify
proximity switch function.
If the unit cannot make ice after restarting the machine:
1. If there is water in the water tank and the water flowing over the
evaporator is not freezing, there may be a refrigerant leakage. Find the
leak point, weld it, and re-inject gas.
2. If there is no water in the tank, check the water inlet valve function. Use
a multimeter to check if the PCB supplies power to the water inlet valve.
If it does, there is a problem with the inlet valve. If it does not, there is a
problem with the PCB.
3. Use a multimeter to check if the PCB supplies power to the drain valve. If
it does, there is an issue with the drain valve.

Product Description
All models consist of a plastic-lined, insulated hopper mounted to a metal base. The hopper contains a 15-blade
plastic dispense wheel and a stainless steel sweep arm. The top front of the hopper has a removable door to
facilitate maintenance and cleaning of the hopper without removal of the ice machine.
The dispense wheel and sweep arm rotate when the dispense drive motor is actuated. The drive motor's actuation
is controlled by the agitation timer or the vend switch. When the ice dispense chute is pushed back, it moves the
actuation lever up. The actuation lever releases the chute door and pushes the vend switch arm up. When the
vend switch arm has moved a preset distance, the vend switch contacts close, providing power to the dispense
drive motor. Ice is delivered to the top end of the ice chute by the dispense wheel and slides down the chute to the
container below.
The container rests on a grill. The grill's openings are over the ice catch pan, and any spilled ice goes there. The
grill has a flange at the front to help contain the ice that spills during vending. After the ice dispense chute is
released, the ice chute door closes to stop ice flow. Ice in the chute will eventually melt. Melted ice water is routed
to the drain through a hose attached to the bottom of the chute. Spilled ice is contained in an insulated ice catch
pan. Melted ice water from the ice catch pan is routed to the drain. User debris is kept away from the drain in the
catch pan by a slotted shield. The side and front exterior panels are stainless steel. The vending area and top panel
are made of plastic.
