Location of Ice Machine
The location selected for the ice machine must meet
the following criteria. If any of these criteria are not
met, select another location.
• The location must be free of airborne and other
contaminants.
• The air temperature must be at least 35°F (1.6°C),
but must not exceed 110°F (43.4°C).
• The location must not be near heat-generating
equipment or in direct sunlight.
• The location must not obstruct air flow through or
around the ice machine. Refer to the chart below
for clearance requirements.
Water-Cooled
Top/Sides 5” (127 mm)*
Back 5” (127 mm)*
*There is no minimum clearance required. This value
is recommended for efficient operation and servicing
only.
Leveling the Ice Storage Bin
1. Screw the leveling legs onto the bottom of the
bin.
2. Screw the foot of each leg in as far as possible.
CAUTION
The legs must be screwed in tightly to prevent
them from bending.
3. Move the bin into its final position.
4. Level the bin to assure that the bin door closes
and seals properly. Use a level on top of the bin.
Turn each foot as necessary to level the bin.
5. Inspect bin gasket prior to ice machine
installation. (Manitowoc bins come with a closed
cell foam gasket installed along the top surface of
the bin.)
6. Install ice machine on bin.
NOTE: An optional caster assembly is available for
use in place of the legs. Installation instructions are
supplied with the casters.
