• The ice ejector reach the ice in the mold.
• The ice releases from the mold as the ejector
blades begin to rotate the cubes out.
• The drive motor remains energized through the
holding switch.
• The mold heater remains energized through the
thermostat.
• As the shut-off arm rises, the shut off switch is
tripped to “normally closed”, and then the shut-off
arm begins to lower.

• The ice has released from the mold.
• The motor remains energized through the holding
switch.
• The shut-off arm is lowered and the shut off switch
is tripped to “normally open”.
• The water valve solenoid switch is tripped by the
timing cam, but the solenoid is not energized
because the thermostat is still closed and energiz-
ing the mold heater. (Electric current follows the
path of least resistance.)
