- Placement: Choose a location with a stable, level floor capable of supporting the unit's weight. Ensure the ambient temperature is between 50°F (10°C) and 90°F (32°C). Allow at least 6 inches (15 cm) of clearance around the back and sides for proper ventilation.
- Install Ice Bin Feet: Screw the four adjustable anti-slip feet into the bottom of the ice storage bin. Adjust them to ensure the bin is level and stable.
- Connect Drainage Pipe to Bin: Connect the drainage pipe from the ice storage bin to a suitable floor drain. Ensure there is a slight downward slope for proper water flow.
- Mount Head Unit: Carefully lift the ice maker head unit and place it securely on top of the ice storage bin. Ensure it is properly aligned and seated.
- Water Inlet Connection: Connect the provided water inlet hose to a potable water supply line (1/2" NPT recommended) with a shut-off valve. Connect the other end to the water inlet port on the back of the ice maker head unit. It is recommended to install the included water filter in-line with the water supply.
- Head Unit Drainage Connection: Connect the head unit drainage hose to a separate drain or combine it with the ice bin drainage, ensuring proper slope.
- Electrical Connection: Plug the ice maker into a dedicated, grounded 110V/60Hz electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords or multi-outlet adapters.
