Installation Notes
Sealing to floor: In some cases the base of the ice
machine must be sealed to the floor to meet local
code. Food grade silastic sealant such as
Scotsman part number 19-0529-01 is
recommended.
Place the machine in the intended location. Turn
the leg levelers in until the bottom of the unit is as
close to the floor as possible. Be sure the unit is
level and all four levelers are in contact with the
floor.
Place a bead of the sealant between the floor and
the outside edge of the cabinet. The bead must fill
the space between the cabinet bottom edges and
the floor.
Built In Situations: If a finished floor is to be
installed in the area after the ice machine has been
built in, shims the expected thickness of the floor
should be installed under the unit to keep the
machine level with the planned floor level.
Installations on a slab: Use a pump model and
pump the water to the point of drainage. Pump
models will pump 1 story (10 feet) high.
Installations over a crawl space or basement:
Either gravity drain or pump model units may be
used, if there is not enough room behind the
machine for a drain/waste receptacle, the drain will
have to be below the floor.
Note: When installed in a corner, the door swing
may be limited due to handle contact with the wall
or cabinet face.
