Installation
Operation
2. Clean the ice bin and the food area inside with a sponge soaked in warm water and soda. Then wash and
dry it with potable water.
3. Place the ice machine in the operation area; ensure that the machine is placed on a leveled floor. So as to
ensure the water flows evenly on the evaporator.
4. The compressor chamber is located at the back. The compressor and condenser are installed in it. For air
cooled unit, it requires good ventilation. Therefore, the front and rear of the ice maker must have ventilation
space of more than 20-30 cm.
5. The bottom of the ice machine is equipped with adjustable legs for level adjustment and floor cleaning.
6. Connect the machine’s inlet water filter and water pipe referring to the schematic diagram of installation; if
the installation site is already equipped with a drinking water system, the water filter may not be installed.
Note: the filter flow direction should be correctly installed as per the direction marker on the filter
head cover or the filter body.
Note: This machine is equipped with an inlet water filter. The filter will keep impurities from the
water used as the machine is running. Generally, it needs to be replaced every month to every 3
months.
7. Connect the machine to the water supply using the 3/4” inlet pipe supplied with the machine. It is
recommended to install a water valve (not supplied with this machine) on the water supply line.
8. Connect the drain pipe to the drain connection. In order to meet a good draining, it is recommended that
the drain pipe should have a difference of level more than 3cm per meter; and confirm that the drain pipe is
not blocked. It is recommended that the drain pipe be connected to an open drainage port.
9. Any joint in the drain pipe must not be higher than the machine drainage port; any joint in the drain pipe
cannot be higher than the previous joint.
10. Confirm the power requirements stated in the machine nameplate; ensure that the power supply meets the
requirements.
11. A circuit breaker or switch with leakage protector and reliably grounding is required.
12. Turn off the switch on the power line and connect the machine to the power source.

• That the packaging tape inside the ice machine has been removed.
• The accessories or items in the ice bin have been taken out.
• The ice machine has been adjusted to a leveled state.
• The water pipe has been connected and the water valve is open.
• The plug has been connected to the power supply and the power switch is off.
• The ambient temperature, water temperature, and pressure of the water supply meet the above
requirements.
