Installation
- Place the icemaker indoors or outdoors on a firm, level surface with proper clearance (15" at front, space at rear for connections).
- Ensure the unit is at floor level on a finished floor, even if installed under a cabinet.
- Connect the cold water supply line (1/2" FPT inlet, minimum 10 psi, maximum 113 psi). Install a shut‑off valve.
- Connect the drain line (1/2" FPT outlet) with a proper air gap to a floor drain. If using optional drain pump HS‑5061, follow pump instructions.
- Plug into a grounded 115V, 60Hz, 3‑prong outlet (NEMA 5‑15). Do not use extension cords or adapters.
- Level the icemaker front‑to‑back and side‑to‑side by adjusting the feet.
- Check all connections for leaks, then switch the control to “ICE” to begin operation.
- For detailed steps, refer to the installation manual provided in the package or contact a licensed plumber/electrician.
Maintenance
- Clean and sanitize the icemaker and bin every 6 months using Hoshizaki “Scale Away” cleaner and sanitizer.
- Inspect and clean the condenser coil regularly to maintain airflow.
- Check the ice storage bin drain every 3 months to ensure it remains clear.
- If using the optional drain pump, test its operation during each cleaning cycle.
- Replace external water filters as needed to maintain proper water quality.
- Do not operate the unit in freezing conditions; drain and prepare for non‑use if temperatures drop below 32°F (0℃).
- Always unplug the unit and shut off water before servicing.
- For service or repairs, consult the manual.
