Installation
Installation should be done by an experienced ice
machine installer. To locate one, call the number on
the back of this manual or go to Scotsman’s website
www.scotsman-ice.com to identify a local distributor or
service company.
The machine will require power, water and drain.
Locate the water supply fitting on the lower back of
the cabinet and obtain the correct fitting to connect
the water supply.
Plumbing Fittings:
• Potable water inlet: 3/8 male flare.
• Cabinet drain: 3/4 FPT.
• Water cooled condenser inlet: 3/8 FPT.
• Water cooled condenser drain: 1/2 FPT
All models:
Connect the potable water supply to the inlet
at the bottom back of the unit. 3/8” OD tubing
recommended. Water filters may be used but are not
required. Note that activated carbon or charcoal water
filters are used for taste and odor problems but also
take out any chlorine that the local water agency may
have added for purification. That can require more
frequent sanitization of the equipment.
Connect drain tubing to the central drain fitting at the
back of the cabinet. Use 3/4 inch rigid tubing, use
material to meet local codes. The drain basin in the
machine will act as an internal vent, no additional
vent should be required unless there is a very long
horizontal run. Drain tubing must pitch down 1/4 inch
per foot to the building drain. Insulation of drain tubing
is recommended for most environments.
Water cooled models:
Connect water or coolant supply (if using recirculating
system) to the condenser inlet.
Connect drain (or return if a recirculating system) to
the condenser drain. Use only rigid tubing. Do not
vent this drain tube.
Electrical Supply - 115 volt models
Plug the unit into a dedicated 15 amp outlet. The unit
must be the only device on the circuit. Confirm the
outlet is properly grounded and is in good condition.
Worn outlets should be replaced as they can cause
erratic operation of equipment. Do not use an
extension cord. Do not cut off the ground plug on the
power cord.
Ground fault outlets are not recommended. If ground
fault is required a ground fault breaker should be
used.
Use the services of a licensed electrician when
needed and conform to local and national codes.
Position the unit in its final location.
Level the unit front to back and left to right.
Seal to the countertop as required per local codes.
