Initial Start Up
1. Remove front and left side panels. Check
machine for any packing or wires rubbing
moving parts. Note location of control board in
upper left corner of the machine’s front.
2. Remove tape securing curtain to evaporator.
3. Switch on the electrical power to the machine.
Observe that some of the control’s indicator
lights glow and its display shows O.
4. Wait 4 hours for the compressor’s crankcase
heater to warm up the oil in the compressor.
Start Up
1. Open the water supply valve.
2. Turn the receiver’s outlet valve to the full open
position.
3. Push and release the ON button.
The indicator light will begin to blink F. The purge
valve will open and the water pump will start. The
inlet water valve will open to add water to the
reservoir. After a few seconds the purge valve will
close and the water pump will stop. Water will flow
into the machine until the reservoir is full. The hot
gas valve and harvest assist device will activate
and the liquid line solenoid valve will open, then the
compressor and water pump will start. The display
will show a continuous F. Five seconds later the hot
gas valve will close and the harvest assist device
will return to its standby position. Warm air will be
discharged from the condenser coil.
4. During the Freeze cycle move the curtain and
observe that the SW1 or SW2 light on the
control board blinks On when the curtain
moves away from the evaporator and Off when
returned to its normal position.
Note: Moving the curtain during the Freeze cycle
has no affect on control function, but will cause
water to flow into the cube chute.
5. Observe the Ready for Harvest indicator light.
It may blink early in the freeze cycle, that is
normal. The control will ignore that signal for
the first 6 minutes of freeze.
6. When the ice has frozen enough, the Ready for
Harvest indicator light will be on steady. After
it’s been on steady for a few seconds Harvest
will begin.
7. The display shows an H.
The hot gas valve opens and the harvest assist
mechanism is activated. The purge valve opens to
drain some water, when it does the inlet water
valve opens to refill the reservoir. After a few
seconds the purge valve closes but the inlet water
valve continues to fill the reservoir. Harvest
continues until the ice is released as a unit and
forces the curtain to open. When the curtain opens
it signals the controller which returns the unit to a
freeze cycle.
8. Check the ice harvested for proper bridge
thickness. The ice bridge is factory set at 1/8
inch. If needed, adjust bridge thickness. Do
NOT make it too thin.
9. Return the panels to their normal positions and
secure them to the machine.
10. Instruct the user in the operation of the
machine and its maintenance requirements.
11. Fill out and mail the warranty registration form.
