Gravity Drain
Caution: Restrictions in the drain system to the
machine will cause water to back up into the ice
storage bin and melt the ice. Gravity drain tubing
must be vented, have no kinks and slope to the
building drain. Air gaps are typically required by
local code.
1. Place the ice machine in front of the installation
opening. Adjust leveling legs to the approximate
height.
2. Remove the front service access panel and the
upper back panel.
Note: If you are connecting a gravity drain model
and the drain opening has been located in the floor
under the base pan according to the pre install
specifications, follow steps 3 through 5 to drain the
unit through the base. If not, proceed to step 6b.
3. Remove the clamp and barbed elbow and take
off the plastic cover in the base pan below the drain
hose.
4. Connect a straight 5/8” barbed connector to the
drain hose, securing with the clamp removed in
step 4.
5. Cut an 8” piece of 5/8” ID X 7/8” OD tygon (clear
plastic) tubing. Slide one end of the tube onto the
outlet of the barbed connector and secure with a
clamp. Leave the other end of the tube lying on the
floor of the base pan until the unit is positioned
over the floor drain.
6. Route the drain tube. Either a) Insert the drain
tube through the base pan into the floor drain or b)
Route the drain tube through the left hole in the
lower back panel and connect to barbed elbow and
secure with a clamp.
7. Reinstall the upper back panel.
8. Reinstall the service access panel. Level the
unit.
