INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
UTILITIES
OBSERVE LOCAL CODES
Each installation is unique but will require:
• A cold water inlet of 1/4″ O.D. soft copper
tubing and a shutoff valve.
• Either a gravity drain system or a sump pump
to lift the water to an existing drain.
• An electrical branch circuit of 115 volt, 60 Hz.
1 phase, with a 15 amp delayed action fuse or
circuit breaker.
FOR THE PLUMBER
Connect to water. (Observe local codes.)
• Use 1/4″ O.D. soft copper tubing for the cold
water supply.
•
Provide a convenient manual shutoff valve in the
water line.
• Position the tubing so it can enter the access
hole located in the right-hand rear of the
icemaker cabinet. The tubing should extend
beyond the cabinet front so when the icemaker
is pushed back in position it will reach the water
inlet location in the front. See Figure 1.
NOTE: Always purge the water line before
making the final connection to the inlet of the
water valve to prevent possible water valve
malfunction.
With the icemaker in its permanent location,
bend the tubing to meet the connection at
the water valve. The garden hose threaded
compression fitting is found in the parts bag.
This joint provides a convenient disconnect
for service. Be sure the tubing is clear of
compressor, to prevent rattle.
LEVELING
• After placing the icemaker into position, check
to make certain the icemaker is level side to side
and front to back.
• Accurate leveling is essential for proper
operation.
• The icemaker should be shimmed so that it is
solid as well as level. The shims should be of
hard permanent type material such as masonite.
• Compliance with National Sanitation
Foundation standards requires that this type of
product be sealed to the floor at the bottom rail
in order to prevent contamination from spills or
the entrance of vermin. Therefore, we
recommend that when installing the icemaker
you seal it to the floor in accordance with those
standards. A silicone-type sealer is recommended.
ALTERNATE METHOD
If a drain connection directly below the
drain tube outlet is not available, install a
UL-listed drain pump in the rear compartment
of the icemaker.
Drain pump specifications:
• UL-listed and have a UL-listed, 120VAC, 3-wire
grounded service cord
• Overall outside dimensions (maximum):
15″ wide x 6″ deep x 9

• Pump flow rate (minimum): 24.0 gph (0.4 gpm)
@ 12 feet lift
• Operating temperature range 55°F. to 110°F.
(13°C. to 43°C.)
