the NOTE: The Va" dia. siphon break hole must be in
vertical leg of white vinyl tubing.
The storage bin drains by gravity and, therefore, the drain
line must maintain gradual slope to an open drain re­
ceptacle. Any rise in the drain line will cause an air lock
which will prevent the water from draining from the stor­
age bin. Installation of an air vent in the drain line will
eliminate the possibility of an air lock forming.

V 2 " galvanized pipe or copper tubing must be used to
extend the condenser outlet to an open type dram.
2. Adequate flow rate must be maintained through the
condenser. Runs over 40 ft. will require using larger pipe size.
*NOTE: These drains may be connected to a disposal
system if high humidity or condenser cleaning causes liquid
in the sump areas.
INSTALL WATER SUPPLY
Water treatment may be advisable because poor quality
water can cause marginal operation or malfunction and
increase
cleaning frequency and maintenance costs.

exceeds 100 psi, a regulator will have to be installed. The
unit will operate in pressures below 20 psi; however, it
may produce cloudy ice
