1.Unit must be at least 3” from back wall for air cir-

culation. Adequate air circulation must be provided on top and other sides for performance.

2.If air cooled ice maker is installed in a closed room, 1000 C.F.M. of air must be exchanged through the room to main- tain the room air at 10’ F. warmer than the available ambient air temperature.

3. The head may be installed on either a Whirlpool bin or

field-constructed bin. In either case, be sure the floor will support the combined weight of the ice maker and the

stored ice cubes. (Approximately 300 Ibs. per leg, if using a Whirlpool bin.)

4.Level bin before installing head. The ice maker head must be level to insure proper water flow over the freezing plates.

If height of ice maker exceeds 90” when installed on a

Whirlpool bin and bin expander a leg kit model CECK3 must be used for additional stability.
