ADJUSTMENTS
Adjustment Of The Timer & Switch Assembly
One complete revolution of the cam on the timer
takes eight minutes. The normal setting is three
and a half minutes, as set at the factory.
It. is important that the length of the harvest cycle
allow enough time for all the ice cubes to fall from
the evaporator. Too short of a time will cause the
evaporator to freeze up and stop ejecting ice into
the bin. Too much time wastes ice making
capacity, energy and water. Adjustment of the
harvest cycle may require a corresponding
adjustment of the cube size control. Rotating the
shaft of the timer cam clockwise will allow putting
the machine into either the freezing cycle or
harvest cycle, as required in the cleaning
instructions.
To Adjust The Timer & Switch Assembly:
The length of the harvest cycle can be changed by
loosening the set screw on the cam, and then
rotating the shaft so that the opening between the
cams change. More of an opening between the
cams = more harvest time. The harvest time may
be reduced if not needed. This will yield more ice
per day.
Electrical power
present in the control
box can cause personal
injury.
Disconnect power
