fittings and a shut off valve installed in an accessible position between the water supply line and the unit.

WATER SUPPLY - WATER COOLED MODELS.

The water cooled versions require two separate inlet water supplies on models 40 and 60, one to supply water for the ice production and one for the water cooled condenser.

Connect the male fitting of the condenser water inlet solenoid valve, using the second flexible tubing supplied, to the cold water supply line with regular plumbing fittings and a shut off valve installed in an accessible position between the water supply line and the unit.

WATER DRAIN.

The recommended drain tube is a plastic or flexible tube with 18mm (3/4in) I.D. that runs to an open trapped and vented drain. When the drain is along run, allow 3cm pitch per metre (1/4in per foot).

A vertical open vent, at the unit drain connection is also required for proper sump drainage.

WATER DRAIN – WATER COOLED MODELS.

The water drain line from the condenser, on water cooled versions, is internally connected with the drain fitting of the unit.

It is strongly recommended therefore to install a vertical open vent to the high point of the drain line high enough to ensure good drainage and to direct the drain line to a trapped and vented floor drain receptacle.

This ensures proper flow of the drained water as, in the case of poor drainage, the water running out of the condenser may leak through the unit drain tubing into the ice storage bin or into the sump reservoir.

NOTE. The water supply and the water drain must be installed to conform to the local codes. In some cases a licensed plumber and/or a plumbing permit is required.

1.5Final Checklist.

1.Is the machine in a room where the ambient temperatures are within a minimum of 10°C (50°F) even in winter months?

2.Is there at least a 15cm (6in) clearance around the unit for proper air circulation?

3.Is the machine level? (IMPORTANT)

4.Have all the electrical and plumbing connections been made, and is the water supply shut-off valve open?

5.Has the voltage been tested and checked against the rating on the data plate?

6.Has the water supply pressure been checked to ensure a water pressure of at least 1 bar (14psi)?

7.Check all refrigerant lines and conduit lines to guard against vibration and possible failure?

8.Has the bin liner and cabinet been wiped clean?

9.Has the owner/user been given the User Manual and been instructed on the importance of periodic maintenance checks?

10.Has the owner/user been given the name and telephone number of the authorised Service Agency in case of breakdown.
