LOW PRESSURE CONTROL E-0400 REMOTE

1. Turn ice machine off at toggle switch so machine pumps down and shuts off at 2 psig.
2. CAUTION - Disconnect power at circuit breaker after machine has pumped down.
3. Mount low-pressure control using the existing capacitor mounting stud, washer, nut, and extra washer included in kit.

Install extra washer under existing washer (see Illustration, Sheet 2).

-OR-

B. Pump down to 2 lb. and close receiver valve.

a. Using pinch-off tool, pinch off 1/4" line to cap tubes (see Illustration, Sheet 2).

and hot gas solenoid.

b. Cut top of 1/4" stub off.

new low-pressure 1/4" stub and solder to existing stub.

5. Run lead wires from new pressure control into control box. Do not allow wires to touch any refrigerant lines.
6. Remove lead wires from existing low-pressure control and connect to new lead wires using heat shrink sleeve as insulation

over connection (see Illustration, Sheet 3).
