Raise: The water solenoid valve will be energized, as the water plate closes, to begin filling the sump
for the next ice-making cycle. When fully closed, the water plate will stop and the water pump will be
energized. The evaporator cools and begins to remove heat from the water to make the next batch of
ice.
Ice Bin Full: When the level of ice reaches the bin probe, the ice maker stops automatically, and it
remains off until the bin probe warms up when the ice level is lowered.
Cleaning Mode: All of the operational components except refrigeration are able to function with the
make ice/clean switch in the clean position. Simply placing this switch in the cleaning position does
not complete the cleaning and sanitizing of the cuber. Instructions pertaining to the cleaning of a
machine can be found on page 12 of this manual.
Note: The frequency of the need for cleaning is determined by the supply water characteristics. The
cuber should be cleaned no less frequently than once each 6 months, and it may require more
frequent cleaning. The requirement for sanitizing frequency may be contained in local health code
regulations.
Water Plate Closure Problems: If the water plate is not able to close due to ice remaining on the
water plate surface, the plate will reopen until it is clear.
Shutdown-High Pressure: All models are provided with a high pressure cutoff, which interrupts
power to the compressor and to the condenser fan motor, if so equipped, when the high-side
pressure rises to the cutoff setting. The high pressure cutoff will automatically reset, restoring power
when the pressure drops. When this happens it is important to determine the cause of the high
pressure and correct.
