TO INSTALL: Plumbing
Built In, Gravity Drain Model:
The drain and inlet water tubes must be plumbed
before connecting to the ice machine. All horizontal
runs of drain lines must have a 1/4" per foot fall. An
air gap will likely be required between the ice
machine drain tube and the drain/waste
receptacle. A stand pipe with a trap below it would
be acceptable for the drain/waste receptacle.
Note: Poor draining will cause a high rate of ice
melting in the bin.
1. Place ice machine in front of installed location.
Adjust leg levelers to approximately correct
position.
2. Remove kickplate and the access cover above
it.
3. Route water inlet line, which should be a 1/4"
O.D. copper tube, from wall through ice machine to
the front.
4. Route drain line from wall position through ice
machine. Note: if using a long horizontal run (more
than 5’) the drain should be vented at back of
cabinet.
5. If electrical outlet for ice machine is behind the
cabinet, plug in the ice machine now.
6. Push ice machine into installed position.
7. Cut off water inlet line at required length.
8. Flush water line. Place flare nut on inlet water
line and flare the end of the copper tube.
9. Attach flare nut to the male flare on the inlet
water valve.
10. Cut off the drain tube to the required length.
11. Route a 5
8
" drain tube through the back panel
of the machine and connect to the bin drain fitting
at the bottom of the bin. Secure with hose clamps.
Be certain that the drain tube is pushed up well
past the barbs on the drain fitting. If needed to
ease installation, soak the drain hose in hot water
just before connecting to the fitting.
12. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.
13. Replace the kickplate and the access cover
above it. Level as needed.
