ELECTRICAL CORD STRAIN RELIEF

To prevent strain at the electrical connection inside the
ice machine, an electrical cord strain relief device must
be installed on the rear panel of the ice machine.

1. Disassemble the strain relief device into its three

components.

2. Install the cord holder through the opening in the

lower right corner of the rear panel of the ice
machine.

Strain Relief Installation

3. Hand-tighten the retaining nut onto the cord holder

from inside the ice machine rear panel.

4. Slide the compression nut over the electrical cord.

5. Feed about 1.5 m (5 ft.) of electrical cord through the

cord holder. (The extra cord will allow the rear panel
to be removed for future service.)

6. Hand-tighten the compression nut onto the cord

holder.

TERMINAL BLOCK WIRE CONNECTION

After the electrical cord is installed in the strain relief
device, the cord must be connected to the terminal block
to supply power to the ice machine.

1. Remove two Phillips head screws to remove the

lower panel from the front of the ice machine.

2. Carefully reach into the ice machine and pull the

electrical cord forward to the terminal block.

3. Strip away enough insulation from the electrical cord

to allow for good electrical connections at the
terminal block.

Terminal Block Connections

4. Open the screw terminals on the terminal block.

5. Connect each wire in the electrical cord to the

appropriate screw terminal.

6. Carefully tighten the screws over the wire.

7. Tug lightly on each wire to be sure the connections

are secure.
