START-UP PROCEDURE

10

Start-Up Procedure

Note: Before starting the machine, make sure the 
machine is level within 1/8 inch in all directions, 
the bin or dispenser leg height can be adjusted by 
rotating the leg foot

After verifying proper voltage, water supply, drains 
and breathable air space around the unit, press and 
quickly release the ON/OFF button behind the unit 
front panel. The indicator light will change from a 
solid red to solid blue in color. 

Follow the sequence of operation described under 
“Operation of CIM Series Cuber” in this manual. 
Check operation of each component through the 
cycle as explained in this section. 

Bridge Thickness Adjustment
Once the unit has gone through a harvest cycle, 
verify the bridge thickness (3/16” thick for units 
less than 400 lbs. and 1/8” for 400 lbs. and above) 
across the middle of the ice slab on the second 
batch produced. The ice thickness can be changed 
on the Float Housing by turning the adjustment 
clockwise to decrease the bridge thickness and 
counter-clockwise to increase the bridge thickness. 
You will hear a “click” with each adjustment. It is 
recommended adjustments be made one or two 
“clicks” at a time.
