14. Remove the ice cube deflectors between each cutter
grid. The lower left edge has a locking tab which must
clear the grid frame. Push left and up on the lower edge
of the deflector. The right edge then readily comes off
the lower flange of the cutter grid above.
Wash the deflectors and distributors with a mild
detergent solution, rinse with clean water and sanitize
with the sanitizer solution. If heavy scale exists the
components may be soaked in cleaning solution to
remove the scale.

right side and pull the left edge off of the cutter grid.
The elastic distributor may have to be flexed slightly to
get it off the grid flange.

hose connected to the bottom of the pan. The plastic
pan should then be moved to the left until the right
edge can be dropped off the mounting flange. During
removal the pan may have to be flexed slightly.

connection and remove the grid switch. Grids are held
in position on four studs. Sliding clips free the grids
from the studs on the left end and the other end of the
grid slides off the studs nearest the freezing plate. The
entire grid can be placed in cleaning solution (see item
1). Allow the grid to soak and use a toothbrush to
remove scale and mineral deposits on connecting pins
and grid wires.

Water inlet and drain lines must be blown out if the unit
will be subjected to freezing temperatures during shut
down. Failure to do so may cause the water inlet or drain
line to freeze and rupture. Disconnect electricity to the
machine and leave the door cracked open to prevent any
odor from developing.
