Scotsman MFE400 - Manual (Page 4)

FOR THE INSTALLER
Location
After uncrating and inspection, the unit is ready to
be installed.
It is important that the machine be installed in a
location where it has enough space around it for
service, and a minimum of 6" be allowed all sides
for air circulation. The machine, when air cooled,
draws air in the front, and exhausts it out the sides
and back.
Try to avoid hot, dirty and crowded locations. Be
sure that the location for the machine is within the
limitations described on page 3.
Storage Bin
Tip the uncrated storage bin on its back, using
parts of the carton to protect the exterior finish.
Install the legs into the threaded holes in the
bottom of the bin. Turn the leg levelers all the way
in preparation for leveling later.
Return the bin to the upright position, remove
paper covering the bin gasket.
Install bin top if required.
Note: Do not push bin into position: but lift it there.
Pushing a bin, especially one with ice in it, can
cause damage to the legs and the leg mounts.
Ice Maker
The machine is heavy, so the use of a mechanical
lift is recommended for lifting the machine high
enough to install on top of the bin. After the
machine is placed on the bin, line it up so that the
ice discharge opening in the base of the machine
is over the open hole in the bin top.
Ice Chute Installation
After the MFE400 has been installed on the ice
storage bin, the ice chute needs to be installed:
1. With the top panel off, remove all packing
material (bubble pack) from above the ice chute
and chute cap. Cut the ty-wrap holding the chute
assembly in place.
2. Remove the insulation halves and ty-wrap
packed inside the cabinet, retain for later use.
3. Remove the cardboard support from under the
ice chute.
4. Insert the ice chute/bin thermostat assembly into
the large hole in the bottom of the ice machine.
Check that bin thermostat cap tube is free from
contact with most components.
5. Remove the rubber cap from the top of the ice
chute. Leave one hose clamp on the chute.
6. Push the ice chute against the stainless spout
(the end of the spout will go into the chute).
7. Slide the rubber cap over the top of the stainless
spout. Push down until it fits tightly around the
spout.
8. Secure the rubber cap to the spout with the two
hose clamps, in the molded grooves; one above
and one below. Keep hose clamp screws away
from evaporator.
9. Attach the insulation halves around the top of
the evaporator. Secure with the ty-wrap provided.
Finish installation per service manual.
