ADDITIONAL COMPONENT REMOVAL
The following components may be removed for easier
access in some installations or they may need to be
removed and cleaned to correct an operational problem.
Water Inlet Valve
The water inlet valve normally does not require removal
for cleaning. Refer to Section 5 for a list of causes for
“No Water Entering Water Trough” or “Water Overflows
Water Trough.
1. When the ice machine is off, the water inlet valve
must completely stop water flow into the machine.
2. When the ice machine is on, the water inlet valve
must allow the proper water flow through it. Set the
toggle switch to ON. Watch for water flow into the ice
machine. If the water flow is slow or only trickles into
the ice machine, refer to Section 5.
Follow the procedure below to remove the water inlet
valve.
1. Remove the 1/4” hex head screws.
2. Remove, clean, and install the filter screen.
Water Dump Valve
The water dump valve normally does not require
removal for cleaning. To determine if removal is
necessary:
1. Set the toggle switch to ICE.
2. Verify the water trough fills with water at the
beginning of the freeze cycle.
3. While the ice machine is in the freeze mode, check
the water trough to determine if the dump valve is
leaking. If there is no or little water in the water
trough (during the freeze cycle) the dump valve is
leaking.
A. If the dump valve is leaking, remove,
disassemble and clean it.
B. If the dump valve is not leaking, do not remove
it. Instead, follow the “Ice Machine Cleaning
Procedure”.
Follow the procedure below to remove the dump valve.
1. Leaving the wires attached, twist coil and rotate it
counter-clockwise1/4 turn.
2. Lift the coil assembly off the valve body.
3. Remove the spring, plunger, and nylon gasket from
the valve body.
NOTE: At this point, the water dump valve can easily be
cleaned. If complete removal is desired, continue with
step 4.
NOTE: During cleaning, do not stretch or damage the
spring.
4. Remove the tubing from the dump valve by twisting
the clamps off.
5. Twist the valve body to remove from mounting
bracket.
