Pre-INSTALLATION
Moving the Unit
IMPORTANT NOTE: When you move the unit into the
house using a hand truck or dolly, position the dolly on the
side of the unit and secure the door so it does not open
while transporting the unit.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The floor under the ice maker must
be at the same level as the surrounding finished floor.
Electrical
A 115 volt, 6OHz, 15 amp circuit breaker and electrical
supply are required. A separate circuit is required for each
unit. Follow the National Electrical Code and local codes
and ordinances when installing the receptacle.
The ice maker is supplied with a cord, and may be plugged
into a wall outlet. The ice maker should be the only device
using that circuit.
WARNING
Model 315 is equipped with a 3-prong grounding plug
and they must be plugged into a mating 3-prong
grounding-type wall receptacle.
Do not use an extension cord, or two prong adapter.
Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
Do not under any circumstances remove the power
supply cord ground prong.

Plumbing
Rough in the water supply line. Connect a 1/4” OD copper
line to the house supply. Be sure to use an easily accessi-
ble shut-off valve between the supply and the appliance.
This shut-off valve should not be installed behind the unit.
Do not use “self-piercing” valves. A saddle valve (part #4-
20-088-0) is available from your distributor/dealer. A line
filter is required when the water supply has a high miner-
al content. The water supply must maintain 20 to 80 psi of
water pressure.
The water supply and drain should be roughed in and
ready at the point of installation. A wall outlet directly
behind the ice maker will make the installation easier. All
electrical, water and drain connections must conform to
local codes.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Although the Model 315 has been
designed to be serviced in place, in some cases it may be
necessary to pull the unit out for service. For that reason
do not restrict access to the cabinet at the front–top and
bottom.
If a floor is to be installed after the ice maker, shims the
thickness of the floor should be installed under the Model
315 to keep the ice maker level with the floor. Also, allow
1/8" clearance on each side of the cabinet for protruding
screw heads.
INSTALLATIONS ON A SLAB: Use a Model 315P and
pump the water to the point of drainage. Pump models will
pump one story high.
INSTALLATIONS OVER A CRAWL SPACE OR BASE-
MENT: Either gravity drain or pump model units may be
used, if there is not enough room behind the ice maker for
a drain/waste receptacle, the drain will have to be below
the floor.
WARNING
Shut off the power to the wall outlet.
CAUTION
Any finished flooring should be protected with appro-
priate material to avoid any damage from moving the
unit.
