NME454, 654 & FME504, 804

OPERATION: Water

Water enters the machine through the 3/8" male flare at the rear of the cabinet, goes to the water reservoir which it enters through the float valve. The water then goes out the bottom of the reservoir tank to the bottom of the evaporator. Reservoir overflow or evaporator condensation is routed to the drain. Water cooled models have a separate water circuit for the cooling water: it enters the fitting at the rear, goes to the water regulating valve, then to the water cooled condenser and down the drain.

Water Level: The correct water level should be

checked when the machine is making ice. Check the water level in the reservoir and compare it to the horizontal line molded into the side of the reservoir.

The correct level should be between 18" above and 14" below the line. If needed, bend the float arm up or down to adjust the water level.
