Additional Maintenance: Water Distributors
It may become necessary to remove the water
distributors from the top of the evaporator and
clean (de-mineralize) them outside of the ice
machine.
1. Remove front panes.
2. Push and release the OFF button.
3. Remove the evaporator covers.
4. Pull the tab at the front of the evaporators
forward and lift the front of the water distributors
up until they clear the tab.
5. Repeat for all evaporators and distributors.
6. Pull the distributors forward as a set.
7. Remove the distributors from the manifolds.
8. Examine the top of the evaporators. The Water
Distribution Channels must be free from mineral
build up. If build up is evident, scrub the channels
with Scotsman Ice Machine Cleaner and a plastic
bristle brush.
9. Examine the water distributors. Although they are
made of a material that is resistant to mineral build
up, some may be present. Soak or scrub the
distributors in or with a solution of Scotsman Ice
Machine Cleaner and warm potable water.
10. Return the water distributors to their normal
installed position.
11. Return the two inner splash panels and the
evaporator cover to their original positions.

water system.
13. After the machine stops, push and release the
Freeze button.
