Possible Cause
Low water level in reservoir.
Softened water supply.
Room temperature is too cold.
Low water level in reservoir.
Distributor tube is restricted.
Build up of deposits on evaporator plate.
Inadequate drain system.

Correction
Make sure that the reservoir drain plug is installed properly. Check the
water line to the unit to make sure there are no restrictions or kinks in
the line. Check all filters to make sure they are not restricted or plugged.
Make certain that water line is not connected to the water softener.
Move the unit to an area where room temperature is above 55 deg. F.
Make sure that the reservoir drain plug is installed properly.
Check the water line to the unit to make sure there are no restrictions
or kinks in the line. Check all filters to make sure they are not restricted
or plugged.
See "CLEANING YOUR ICE MACHINE" section for cleaning the unit for
proper operation.
Restriction in drain lines will cause ice in the bin to melt. If using a gravi-
ty drain, make certain there are no kinks or restrictions in the drain
lines. If using a drain pump, check the inlet screen, discharge line, and
vent line for any build or restrictions.
Make certain the grille in the front of the unit is free and open for prop-
er air circulation. Check and clean the condenser coil by removing the
grille in the front of the unit. Clean the condenser with a vacuum and
brush attachment.
The unit will automatically shut down when ice reaches the sensing

The unit will automatically shut down when ice reaches the sensing
tube and has completed the harvest of the ice slab.
Move the unit to an area where room temperature is below 90 deg. F.
Use a level to check the unit for level from side to side and front to rear.
Set the rocker switch on the grille of the ice machine to the "ON"
position.
Remove the escutcheon panel and plug the grid-cutter into the recep-
tacle on the side of the line.
It can take up to 35 minutes to cut through a harvested ice slab. This is
normal operation.
