Placement

The location of the equipment should be selected

with care. Consideration should be given to allow

adequate space on the sides for air cooled models

to breathe. Minimum clearance is 3 inches at the

sides, none at the back and 2 inches above. The

power outlet should be located within the length of the

supplied power cord.
Air cooled models in a small room require ventilation

to exhaust the heat they produce. They also produce

some added noise from the fan.
Nearby infrared emitters or a window that allows

sunlight to shine on a dispensing sensor may cause

the unit to dispense ice or water on its own.
Wall mount units do NOT have a drip tray, so they

MUST be positioned over a sink to collect any

dripping water or spilled ice.
Wall Mount
These models are designed for mounting on a wall.

Check building wall for the strength required to

support a machine of this weight and size. Note that

if at least 6” of space is not left above the machine,

cleaning and most service of the machine will require

removal of the machine from the wall mounts. All

utilities are to be routed thru the base. One inch of

space is needed between the wall and the back of the

machine.
Note: The wall must be plumb or the unit will be out of

level front to back.
It is recommended that the wall mounting installation

be done by an experienced contractor.
The weight of the machine when in use may exceed

350 pounds. The unit should be mounted on a solid,

rigid wall with proper fasteners for that type of wall

and of adequate strength to support the weight of the

machine when in use.
Unpack
Separate the carton from the shipping pallet.
Important: Locate and retain the wall mounting

brackets, they were shipped in a box on the skid

in front of the unit.
Remove any strapping holding the cabinet to the

pallet.
Inspect for hidden shipping damage. If any is found,

retain carton and notify carrier for potential claim.

Shipping damage is not covered by warranty.

Remove bolts holding machine to pallet. Use caution

to not tip unit too far when removing bolts.
Remove the protective plastic covering the panels.

The longer it is left on the panel, the harder it will be

to remove it.

Set Up
It is a good idea to

remove the front panels

and inspect for any

loose or rubbing parts

prior to installation.
Panel Removal
Remove one screw at

bottom front of upper

front panel, swing

bottom of panel forward

and lift off the unit.
Twist ice and water chutes counterclockwise and pull

down to remove.
Remove four screws from sides of splash panel, pull

forward slightly. If needed, unplug sensor connector

and separate panel from unit.
Pre-Start Inspection
Confirm there are no loose or rubbing parts.
