FOR THE INSTALLER

This machine is designed to fit the following

Scotsman storage bins:

B90 and extensions (with bin top KBT18)

BH800 using bin top KBT15 (one unit).

BH800 (two units, no bin top required).

BH900 with KBT24 (one unit)

BH900 with KBT25 (two units side by side)

When installing a new system, check to be sure

that everything is on site before beginning:

Correct Bin

Correct Ice Machine

Correct Bin Top (if required)

All kits, legs, and information required for

the specific job.

Installation Limitations:

This ice system is designed to be installed indoors,

in a controlled environment:

Min Max

Air Temperature 500F1000F

Water Temperature 400F1000F

Water Pressure 20 PSI 80 PSI

Voltage -5% +10%

(Compared to the nameplate)

Operating the machine outside of the limitations is

misuse and can void the warranty.

The normal finish for the ice machine is

enamel-sandalwood. A stainless steel panel kit,

SPKFM21 may be field installed to convert the unit

to a stainless steel finish.

FOR THE INSTALLER

Scotsman Ice Systems are designed and

manufactured with the highest regard for safety

and performance. They meet or exceed the

standards of UL, NSF and CUL.

Scotsman assumes no liability or responsibility of

any kind for products manufactured by Scotsman

that have been altered in any way, including the

use of any part and/or other components not

specifically approved by Scotsman.

Scotsman reserves the right to make design

changes and/or improvements at any time.

Specifications and design are subject to change

without notice.

Location:

After uncrating and inspection, the unit is ready for

installation. It is important that the machine be

installed in a location where it has enough space

around it to be accessible for service, and

minimum of 6" be allowed at the back for air

circulation on air cooled models. Try to avoid hot,

dirty and crowded locations. Be sure that the

location for the machine is within the

environmental limitations.

Storage Bin:

Tip the storage bin on its back, using parts of the

carton to protect the exterior finish. Install the legs

into the threaded holes in the bottom of the bin.

Turn the leg levelers all the way in preparation for

leveling later. Return the bin to the upright

position, remove paper covering the bin gasket.

Note: Do not push bin into position, but lift it there.

Pushing a bin, especially one with ice in it, can

cause damage to the legs and the leg mounts.

Install the appropriate bin top on the bin, according

to the instructions for the bin top.

Ice Maker:

The machine is heavy, so the use of a mechanical

lift is recommended for lifting the machine high

enough to install on top of the bin. After the unit is

placed on the bin, line it up so it is even with the

back side. Secure the machine to the bin with the

hardware provided with the machine.

Remove the front panel and remove any shipping

blocks.

FOR THE PLUMBER

CONFORM TO ALL APPLICABLE CODES

Water Inlet

Air Cooled Models: The recommended water

supply is clean, cold water. Use 3/8" O.D. copper

tubing, connect to the 3/8" male flare at the back of

the cabinet. Install a hand valve near the machine

to control the water supply.

Water Treatment: In most areas, a water filter of

some type will be useful. In areas where the water

is highly concentrated with minerals the water

should be tested by a water treatment specialist,

and the recommendations of the specialist

regarding filtration and/or treatment should be

followed.

Water Cooled Models: A separate 3/8" O.D.

copper line is recommended, with a separate hand

valve to control it. It is connected to a 3/8" FPT

condenser inlet at the back of the cabinet. The

water pressure to all lines must always be above

20 psig, and below 80 psig.

Drains

Air Cooled Models: There is one 3/4" FPT drain

at the back of the cabinet, the drain line is of the

gravity type, and 1/4 inch per foot fall is an

acceptable pitch for the drain tubing. There should

be a vent at the highest point of the drain line, and

the ideal drain receptacle would be a trapped and

vented floor drain. Use only 3/4" rigid tubing.

Water Cooled Models : In addition to the above

mentioned drain, a separate condenser drain must

be installed. Connect it to the 1/2" condenser

drain connection at the back of the cabinet.

Storage Bin : A separate gravity type drain needs

to be run, similar to the air cooled drain. Insulation

of this drain line is recommended.

FOR THE ELECTRICIAN

CONFORM TO ALL APPLICABLE CODES

The electrical power to the unit is supplied through

the junction box at the rear of the machine.

Check the nameplate (located on the back panel)

for the voltage requirements, and for the minimum

circuit ampacity. The machine requires a solid

chassis to earth ground wire.

The ice maker should be connected to its own

electrical circuit so it would be individually fused.

Voltage variation must remain within design

limitations, even under starting conditions.

All external wiring must conform to national,

state, and local electrical codes. The use of a

licensed electrician is required to perform the

electrical installation.

FOR THE INSTALLER Final Check List

1. Is the ice system installed indoors in a location

where the air and water temperatures are

controlled, and where they do not exceed the

design limitations?

2. Is there an electrical service disconnect within

sight of the installed machine? Has the voltage

been checked, and compared to nameplate

requirements?

3. Have all the plumbing connections been made

and checked for leaks?

4. Has the machine and bin been leveled?

5. Is there a minimum of 6" clearance at the back

of the machine for proper service access and air

circulation?

6. Is the water pressure a minimum of 20 psig?

7. Has the machine been secured to the bin?

8. Is there clearance over the top of the machine

for service access?

9. Is there a water shut off valve installed near the

machine?

10. Have all of the shipping blocks been removed?

START UP Pre-Start Inspection

1. Remove the front and side service panels.

2. Check that the styrofoam shipping blocks have

been removed.

3. Inspect the interior of the machine for loose

screws or wires. Check that no refrigerant lines

are rubbing each other. Check that the fan blade

turns freely (air cooled).

4. Check that the unit is installed correctly

according to the final check list (page 8).

Start Up

1. Go through the prestart inspection.

2. Open the hand valve, observe that water enters

the water reservoir, fills the tube from the reservoir

to the evaporator, and then shuts off. Check for

leaks.

3. Switch the master switch on.

The electrical start up sequence is now on

automatic.

A. There should be a short (15 second) delay

before the gear motor starts.

B. After the gear motor starts, the compressor will

start.

4. On air cooled models, the condenser will begin

to discharge warm air, on water cooled models,

the water regulating valve will open, and warm

water will be discharged into the drain.

5. The unit should soon be making ice, if desired,

the low side pressure may be checked: it should

be 32 psig + or - 2 psig.

The suction line temperature at the compressor is

normally very cold, nearly to the point of frost up to

the compressor body, but not on it.

The air cooled discharge pressure will depend

upon air and water temperatures, but should be

between 200 psig and 280 psig.

The water cooled discharge pressure should be

constant at about 245 psig.

The above numbers are for new, clean machines,

you can expect to see some values higher, and

some lower between different units.

6. THERE ARE NO ADJUSTMENTS TO MAKE,

so replace the panels.

7. Clean and/or sanitize the storage bin interior,

wipe off the exterior with a clean, damp cloth.

8. Give the owner/user the service manual, instruct

him/her in the operation of the unit, and make sure

they know who to call for service.

9. Fill out the manufacturers registration card, and

mail it to the Scotsman Factory.

10. Fill out the warranty registration form, and mail

it to Scotsman.
