Base Insulation Installation

1.Raise the ice machine above the bin. A high lift can be used, or (two people required) lift front edge of ice machine and place wood blocks (2”x 4”) between ice machine and bin. Lifting one side of ice machine at a time, move wood blocks to center balance point of ice machine.

2.Slide vacuum-formed base insulation assembly between the ice machine and bin. Align the insulation with the back and sides of the bin and ice machine.

3.Add one layer of foam tape insulation from the front of the bin to the front of the base insulation on the left and right side.

4.Raise front of ice machine and position the wood blocks on edge (3 1/2” height). This will allow the top of the vacuum- formed base to be accessed.

2. Install vacuum-formed base insulation and align back and sides.

3. Add foam tape both sides.
