ꢀ) The legs have eight mounting holes. Secure the legs with eight bolts (not included).  
3) Install enough length of two copper tubings provided with Parker quick connect  
couplings between the icemaker and the condenser unit. The two copper tubings should  
be insulated separately. See Fig. 11.  
• A connector kit "OS-QUICK" is available for field-fabricated lines from Hoshizaki  
America.  
• R-404A precharged tubing kits, available as optional equipment, are recommended.  
4) Line sets fabricated in the field should be evacuated through the charging ports on  
the Parker quick connect couplings and charged with R-404A refrigerant vapor to a  
pressure of 15 - 30 PSIG.  
Note: Factory fabricated tubing kits are precharged and do not need to be evacuated.  
5) Remove the plastic caps protecting the couplings. Attach the two refrigerant lines to the  
male couplings on the icemaker and the remote condenser unit. Each refrigerant line  
must be connected as follows:  
Icemaker discharge refrigerant line - 5/8" OD tubing to "DIS" of condenser unit  
Icemaker liquid refrigerant line - 3/8" OD tubing to "LIQ" of condenser unit  
Note: Care should be taken that the unit, line set and condenser contain the same  
type refrigerant prior to making connections. Mixing of refrigerants will result in  
improper operation and possible damage to the refrigeration system. Make the  
connections at the remote condenser first and then at the icemaker.

2. Storage Bin and Scoop  
• Wash your hands before removing ice. Use the plastic scoop provided (bin accessory).  
• The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the bin.  
• Keep the scoop clean. Clean it by using a neutral cleaner and rinse thoroughly.  
• Clean the bin liner by using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.  
3. Air Filter  
A plastic mesh air filter removes dirt or dust from the air, and keeps the condenser from  
getting clogged. As the filter gets clogged, the icemaker’s performance will be reduced.  
Check the filter at least twice a month. When clogged, use warm water and a neutral  
cleaner to wash the filter.  
4. Condenser  
Check the condenser once a year, and clean if required by using a brush or vacuum  
cleaner. More frequent cleaning may be required depending on the location of the  
icemaker.  
C. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage  
IMPORTANT  
When shutting off the icemaker for an extended time, drain out all water from  
the water tank and remove the ice from the storage bin. The storage bin should  
be cleaned and dried. Drain the icemaker to prevent damage to the water  
supply line at sub-freezing temperatures, using air or carbon dioxide. Shut off  
the icemaker until the proper ambient temperature is resumed.  
When the icemaker is not used for two or three days, it is sufficient to only move the control  
switch to the "OFF" position, unless the icemaker will be at sub-freezing temperatures.  
1. On water-cooled model only, first remove the water from the water-cooled  
condenser:  
1) Remove the front panel.  
ꢀ) Move the control switch, on the control box, to the "OFF" position.
