Pre-Installation
Other Applications:
Check Scotsman sales information for
recommendations regarding applications.
Do not place Air Cooled models where the noise
from the fan will be objectionable.
Check the nameplate for electrical requirements.
The nameplate is located on the back of the ice
machine. While the model and serial number are
on the nameplate, a
serial number plate
is
located at the front of the machine, near the purge
valve.
Water:
There is no such thing as pure water. All water
contains some impurities. There are two ways
water carries the impurities: suspended and
dissolved. Suspended solids can be filtered out.
Dissolved solids must be diluted or treated. Water
filters are recommended to remove suspended
solids. Some filters also have treatment in them for
dissolved solids. Check with a water treatment
service for a recommendation.
Cube Ice machines use more water than what
ends up in the bin as ice. While most water is used
during ice making, a portion is designed to “rinse"
out the water system to keep hard water scale
from clogging up the machine. That water rinse,
combined with water filters, prolongs the times
between needed water system cleaning.
Note: All Scotsman CM
3
models, like those
described in this manual, feature Scotsman’s
AutoIQ™ control system and ReliaClean™ water
system cleaning process.
Service Technicians: All models covered here
come set from the factory at a “standard” water
rinse, which is compatible with typical water
conditions. They may be adjusted to “Minimum" or
“Maximum" water rinse after start up. If the prior
ice machine worked acceptably well with the local
water conditions, leave the machine at the factory
setting. If severe water conditions are present, and
water filters do not solve the problem acceptably,
adjust the machine to use more water. If water
conditions are excellent, adjust the machine to use
less water. See the Adjustments section.
Note: Water use adjustments are customer
convenience adjustments; they are NOT factory
defects and are NOT covered by warranty.
Note: Slope front bins must have an internal baffle.
Scotsman HTB555 and BH550 have the required
baffle. Baffle must be approximately in the position
shown in the diagram.
