OPERATION
WARNING: Do not allow fingers or hands to project below the guard in the ice hopper while
the crusher is in operation.
INITIAL CLEANING
Upon installation, the ice crusher should be cleaned before use. Slide the ice bin into the opening at
the bottom of the cabinet. Rinse the unit by pouring a container of clear warm water into the hopper,
emptying the ice bin as required. Next, flush the ice crusher in the same fashion using a
commercially available sanitizing solution approved for food establishments. Following the
instructions below for general operation, discard the first batch of ice that is run through the crusher.
GENERAL OPERATION
Slide the ice bin into the opening at the bottom of the cabinet. Find the lever, which is located on the
front center of the cabinet. Loosen the thumbscrew on the plate. Position the lever for the size of ice
desired; fine, medium, or coarse. Tighten the thumbscrew. Move the toggle switch located on the
cabinet front panel to the “ON” position before placing ice in the ice hopper. Close the door to
prevent ice from being thrown out of the hopper during the crushing operation.
Caution: Failure to turn the Ice Crusher on before putting ice in the hopper could cause the motor
to burnout or damage the mechanism.
MAINTENANCE
Observe all Warning Labels. Disconnect power supply to eliminate injury from electrical
shock or moving parts when servicing equipment.
On a biannual basis, inspect the drive belt for proper tightness and use a vacuum cleaner to
remove any dust or dirt particles from the motor windings.
Clean and sanitize the ice crusher on a periodic basis.
