CLEANING and SANITIZING

A Scotsman Ice System represents a sizable investment of time and money in any company’s business. In order to receive the best return for that investment, it MUST receive periodic maintenance.

It is the USER’S RESPONSIBILITY to see that the unit is properly maintained. It is always preferable, and less costly in the long run, to avoid possible down time by keeping it clean; adjusting it as needed; and by replacing worn parts before they can cause failure. The following is a list of recommended maintenance that will help keep the machine running with a minimum of problems.

Maintenance and Cleaning should be scheduled at a minimum of twice per year.

Sanitizing of the ice storage bin should be scheduled for a minimum of 4 times a year.

Electrical power will be ON when doing in place cleaning.

ICEMAKING SYSTEM: In place cleaning

1.Check and clean any water treatment devices, if any are installed.

2.Remove screws and remove the upper front panel.

3.Move the ON-OFF switch to OFF.

4.Remove the cover to the ice storage bin, and remove the ice.

5.Remove the cover to the water reservoir and block the float up.

6.Drain the water reservoir and freezer assembly using the drain tube attached to the freezer water inlet. Return the drain tube to its normal upright position and replace the end cap.

7.Prepare the cleaning solution: Mix eight ounces of Scotsman Ice Machine Cleaner with three quarts of hot water. The water should be between 90-115 degrees F.

Cleaner contains acids.

These compounds may cause burns. If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Give large amounts of water or milk. Call Physician immediately. In case of external contact, flush with water. Keep out of the reach of children.

8.Slowly pour the cleaning solution into the water reservoir until it is full. Wait 15 minutes, then switch the master switch to ON.

9.As the ice maker begins to use water from the

reservoir, continue to add more cleaning solution to maintain a full reservoir.

10.After all of the cleaning solution has been added to the reservoir, and the reservoir is nearly empty, switch the master switch to OFF.

11.After draining the reservoir, as in step 6, wash and rinse the water reservoir.

To Sanitize:

Repeat steps 8-11, only use an approved sanitizing solution in place of the cleaning solution. A possible sanitizing solution to use could be 1 ounce of household bleach mixed with 2 gallons of warm (95oF. - 115oF.) water.

12.Remove the block from the float in the water reservoir.

13.Switch the master switch to ON

14.Continue ice making for at least 15 minutes, to flush out any cleaning solution. Check ice for acid taste - continue icemaking until ice tastes sweet.

DO NOT USE any ice produced from the cleaning solution.

Be sure no ice remains in the bin.

15.Remove all ice from the storage bin.

16.Add warm water to the ice storage bin and thoroughly wash and rinse all surfaces within the bin.

17.Sanitize the bin cover, dispensing vane, bin bottom, and interior with an approved sanitizer using the directions for that sanitizer.

18.Replace the ice storage bin cover, and the front panel.
