WARNING
Disconnect electric power to the ice machine at the electric
switch box before proceeding.
Step 6: Remove parts for cleaning.
A. Remove the Vinyl Hose
• Disconnect the water hose from the distribution
tube and water pump.
B. Remove Water Pump
• Disconnect the water pump power cord
Water Pump Removal
• Loosen the screws securing the pump-mounting
bracket to the bulkhead.
• Lift the pump and bracket assembly off the
mounting screws.
C. Remove the Ice Thickness Probe
• Compress the side of the ice thickness probe near
the top hinge pin and remove it from the bracket.
Ice Thickness Probe Removal
NOTE: At this point, the ice thickness probe can
easily be cleaned. If complete removal is desired
follow the ice thickness probe wire to the bulkhead
grommet (exit point) in the back wall. Pop the
bulkhead grommet out of the back wall by inserting
fingernails or a flat object between the back wall and
the grommet and prying forward. Pull the bulkhead
grommet and wire forward until the connector is
accessible, then disconnect the wire lead from the
connector.
Ice Thickness Probe Cleaning
• Mix a solution of Manitowoc ice machine cleaner
and water (2 ounces of cleaner to 16 ounces of
water) in a container.
• Soak the ice thickness probe a minimum of 10
minutes.
Clean all ice thickness probe surfaces and verify the
ice thickness probe cavity is clean. Rinse thoroughly
with clean water, then dry completely. Incomplete
rinsing and drying of the ice thickness probe can
cause premature harvest.
