Preparation
1. Disconnect power from ice machine.
2. Remove front, top, and side panels.
3. Drain water from sump trough.
4. Ice machine must be thoroughly dried before the insulation can be installed. Use towels to dry bulkhead and base assembly.
Base Insulation Installation
1. Raise the ice machine above the bin. A high lift can be used or (two people required) lift front edge of ice machine and place
wood blocks (2”x4”) between ice machine and bin. Lifting one side of ice machine at a time, move wood blocks to center
balance point of ice machine.
2. Slide vacuum formed base insulation assembly between the ice machine and bin. Align the insulation with the back and sides of
the bin and ice machine.
3. Add one layer of foam tape insulation from the front of the bin to the front of the base insulation on the left and right side.
2. Install vacuum-formed base
insulation and align back and sides.
3. Add foam tape both sides.

9. Install additional insulation on entire suction
line
5. Install 3” x 3” insulation on
4. Apply bead of silicone before applying insulation
5. Align insulation slits with base ribbing
7. Seal insulation to base with silicone sealant
10. Insulate drain line
5. When installing in limited access areas, the insulation can be cut at the right TXV to allow installation of the bulkhead
insulation in two pieces. Peel the white backing off of the insulation for the back bulkhead (9” x 48”). Align the slots in the
insulation with the ridges in the base. Press the insulation against the bulkhead to secure. The insulation will overlap the left
and right side insulation installed earlier. Position 3” x 3” square insulation on back bulkhead insulation, around the evaporator
inlet and outlet tubing (four pieces total).
6. Peel the white backing off of the 3” x 48” strip of insulation and install over the bottom section of the 9” x 48” insulation
installed in step 5. Align cut slots with the back bulkhead insulation and press to seal.
7. Use black silicone sealant to seal: insulation to the base, foam insulation to foam insulation joints, any voids where insulation
meets or overlaps. Add bulkhead corner insulation covers where the rear bulkhead and side panel corners meet.
8. Verify no moisture is present in the suction line tubing. If moisture is present, drain and dry the insulation and reinstall.
9. Install armaflex insulation over the existing insulation on suction line. Use 3/4” x 3/8” insulation on the evaporator outlet and
inlet tubing and 2” x 3/8” on the rest of the suction line. Use suitable glue to seal insulation airtight (do not use electrical tape).
Seal the ends of the insulation with wire ties.
10. Remove clear vinyl tube from dump valve and brass wing adapter. Install armaflex insulation over tube and then reinstall tube
to dump valve and adapter. Ensure white clamps are secure to prevent water from leaking.
