II.Installation and Operating Instructions A. Checks Before Installation

IMPORTANT

1.Remove shipping carton, tape(s) and packing. If packing material is left in the icemaker, it will not work properly.

2.Ensure all components, fasteners and thumbscrews are securely in place.

1)Remove the panels to prevent damage when installing the icemaker. See "B. How to Remove Panels."

2)Remove the package containing the accessories.

3)Remove the protective plastic film from the panels. If the icemaker is exposed to the sun or to heat, remove the film after the icemaker cools.

4)Check that the refrigerant lines do not rub or touch lines or other surfaces, and that the fan blade turns freely.

5)Check that the compressor is snug on all mounting pads.

6)See the nameplate on the rear panel, and check that your voltage supplied corresponds with the voltage specified on the nameplate.

7)This icemaker needs a storage bin. The recommended storage bin is HOSHIZAKI ICE STORAGE BIN, Model B-300 series.

8)On remote air-cooled models, a remote condenser unit is needed. The recommended remote condenser unit is HOSHIZAKI CONDENSER UNIT, MODEL URC-6F.
