The start-up procedure below is intended to ensure that icemaker is operating properly after installation has been
made. Check each item listed and call factory immediately for assistance if you experience problems with unit.

Before turning on power

1. Turn on water to icemaker.
2. Push down on float to force water through overflow chamber into evaporator drain pan and check for proper

drainage of drain pan.

3. Check that float valve shuts off incoming water when raised.
4. Check that hose clamp securely holds ice transport tube on evaporator port.

After turning on power

1. Turn on power to icemaker and confirm that gearmotor, fan motor and compressor start immediately.
2. Check that ice begins to enter dispenser bin area within approximately 10 minutes.
3. Check that float reservoir water level is approximately 3/8" (.95mm) below overflow during icemaker

operation and adjust to this level if necessary.

4. Put ice against bin level thermostat in dispenser bin and check that compressor and fan motor shut down

approximately 10 seconds after thermostat opens. Gearmotor should run for an additional 60 seconds.

Cleaning and preventive maintenance (all models)

Preventive maintenance

Periodic cleaning of Follett’s icemaker system is required to ensure peak performance and delivery of clean,
sanitary ice. The recommended cleaning procedures that follow should be performed at least as frequently as
recommended and more often if environmental conditions dictate.

Cleaning of the condenser can usually be performed by facility personnel. Cleaning of the icemaker system,
in most cases, should be performed by your facility’s maintenance staff or a Follett authorized service agent.
Regardless of who performs the cleaning, it is the operator’s responsibility to see that this cleaning is performed
according to the schedule below. Service problems resulting from lack of preventive maintenance will not be

covered under the Follett warranty.

Weekly exterior care

The exterior may be cleaned with a stainless cleaner such as 3M Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish or equivalent.
