Leveling the Ice Maker

It is important for the ice maker to be leveled in order to work properly. It can be raised or lowered by rotating the plastic sheaths around each of the four rolling casters on the bottom of the machine. If you find that the surface is not level, rotate the casters until the ice maker becomes level. You may need to make several adjustments to level it. We recommend using a carpenter’s level to check the machine.

You will find that the casters make it easy for one person to move the machine. This is useful for cleaning and sanitizing the surface on which the ice maker is installed because it allows you to move the unit and have easy access to the surface to be cleaned.

IMPORTANT: Once you are ready to install the ice maker in a cabinet or directly on the floor, you must adjust the feet to level the ice maker and lock the rollers. If the floor is level, just revolve the two front feet to touch the floor. (See illustration.)

Water Supply and Drain Connections

The water supply and drain should be ready at the point of installation. A wall outlet directly behind the ice maker will make installation easier.

IMPORTANT:

1.All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements. Professional installation is recommended.

2.Make certain that the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.

3.Check for leaks after connection.
