Additional Maintenance: Inlet Water Valve Screen
The inlet water valve has a screen on its inlet side
to keep debris from flowing into the valve. In some
cases, this screen may become clogged or
restricted by debris build up. Check for the proper
water flow:
Flow rate is 1.25 G.P.M.
1. Remove front panel.
2. Obtain a measuring cup and a watch.
3. Pull the water discharge tube out of the
reservoir and place it in the cup.
4. Push and release the Harvest button.
5. If working properly, the water valve will fill an 8
oz cup in about 3-4 seconds. Be prepared to push
the Off button. If it does not, the water valve inlet
or other water device is restricted.
To Check the Inlet Water Valve Screen.
1. Disconnect the electrical power.
2. Shut off the water supply.
3. Remove the front panel.
4. Unplug the electrical connection of the inlet
water valve.
5. Remove the screws holding the inlet water valve
to the cabinet.
6. Remove outlet tube from inlet water valve.
7. Rotate inlet water valve from inlet fitting and
remove valve from machine.
8. Examine the inlet screen, if dirty, brush off
screen. Note: Screen is not replaceable, and may
only be removed by taking off the covering
bracket. The bracket forms part of the inlet water
system, and must be water tight to the valve body,
removal is not recommended.
9. Reverse to reassemble.
