Paddle wheel guard (front)

1When re-assembling the rocking chute/door, the paddle wheel guard is placed in the slot in the ice chute.

Notice that a cylinder hinge is welded to the top front side of the paddle wheel guard, as shown in the picture above.

When the paddle wheel guard is placed in the slot in the ice chute, the cylinder hinge on the front of the paddle wheel guard faces forward, as shown in the picture above.

When the paddle wheel guard is correctly installed, the paddle wheel guard will swing outward toward the front of the chute, allowing ice to flow out of the chute.

If incorrectly installed, the paddle wheel guard will not swing outward and ice delivery is blocked.
