2. INSTALLATION
2.1.- PLACING OF THE ICE MAKER
This ice maker is not designed for outdoor operation. The icemaker should not be located next to
ovens, grills or other high heat producing equipment.
The FDHD machines are designed to operate at room temperature between 10ºC and 43ºC .
There may be some difficulties in ice slab removal under the minimum temperatures. Above the
maximum temperature, the life of the compressor is shortened and the production is substantially
lower.
The air cooled FDHD (undercounter) ice makers take the air through the front section, and drive
it off through the back and also front louvers due to their new oblique condenser structure and
placement . Do not place anything on the top of ice maker or facing the front grille. In case the
front grille is either total or partially obstructed, or due to its placement it receives hot air from
another device, we recommend, in case it is not possible to change the location, to install a water
cooled machine.
The air cooled FDHD (modular) ice makers take the air through the back section and drive it off
through the two lateral louvers. In the case it is not possible to respect the minimum distances
recommended (see the picture in point 3.3) for these machines we recommend to install a water
cooled unit.
The location must allow enough clearance for water, drain and electrical connections in the rear
of the ice machine. It is important that the water inlet piping does not pass near sources of heat
so as not to lose ice production.
2.2.-LEVELLING OF THE ICE MAKER
Use a level on top of ice machine in order to ensure the equipment is perfectly leveled.
Screw the leveling legs onto the bottom of the ice machine as far as possible.
Move the machine into its final position.
Use a level on top of the ice machine. Adjust each leg as necessary to level the ice machine from
front to back and side to side.
ATTENTION:
There is an optional 90mm high casters kit that can be used in substitution of the
standard legs. These wheels are supplied with the corresponding installation instructions.
