Inspect the bearing. There should be plenty of grease in sight. If grease is needed the bearing and breaker should be removed to check the action of the bearing. It should rotate smoothly. To remove the breaker remove the lower ice chute then take out all four allen head cap screws and pull the breaker off the auger and evaporator.

If the bearing only needs grease, inject grease into the bearing using Scotsman grease needle pn 02-3559-01 and Scotsman bearing grease cartridge, pn A36808-001. Be sure to inject grease evenly and thoroughly.

See Removal and Replacement section to replace bearing or seals.
