B. Sequence of Operation
IMPORTANT
This unit utilizes a thermostatic bin control. For operation, the K4 jumper
(4A4883G01) must be in place on the control board RED K4 connector.
1. Sequence Cycles and Shutdown
The steps in the sequence are as outlined below. When power is supplied, CB red
"POWER OK" LED and green "BC CLOSED" LED come on. The green "BC CLOSED"
LED is on continuously when the K4 jumper is in place. If CB yellow "BC OPEN" LED is
on, check that CB has the K4 jumper in place on CB RED K4 connector. This unit will not
operate unless the K4 jumper is in place. There is a 5-second delay before startup. Note
that the order of the component LEDs from the outer edge of CB is 1, 4, 3, ꢀ.
a) 1-Minute Fill Cycle
LED 4 is on. WV and Xꢀ relay (auxiliary code T-0 and U-0), X11 relay (auxiliary code
U-1 and later) energize and the 1-minute fill cycle begins. After 1 minute, CB checks for
a closed F/S. If F/S is closed, the harvest cycle begins. If not, WV remains energized
through additional 1-minute fill cycles until water fills the tank and closes F/S. This
serves as a low water safety to protect PM.
b) Initial Harvest Cycle
LEDs 1, 4, and ꢀ are on. WV and Xꢀ relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X11 relay (auxiliary
code U-1 and later) remain energized, HGV, X1 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0),
X10 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later), Comp, and FMR energize. CB monitors the
warming of the evaporator via the thermistor located on the suction line. When the
thermistor reaches 48°F (9°C), CB reads a 3.9 kΩ signal from the thermistor and turns
harvest termination over to the harvest timer (S4 dip switch 1 & ꢀ). The harvest timer
has settings of 60, 90, 1ꢀ0, and 180 seconds. For details, see "II.C.3.b) Harvest Timer
(S4 dip switch 1 & ꢀ)." WV is energized during harvest for a maximum of 6 minutes or
the length of harvest minus 0 or 50 seconds (harvest pump timer (S4 dip switch 7)),
whichever is shorter. CAUTION! Do not adjust S4 dip switch 7 out of the factory
default position on this model. Adjustment outside of the factory default position
may result in damage to the icemaker. For details, see "II.C.3.e) Harvest Pump Timer
(S4 dip switch 7)." LED 4 goes off when WV and Xꢀ relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0),
X11 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later) de-energize. LED 3 comes on and PM energizes
and runs for the last 0 or 50 seconds of harvest depending on S4 dip switch 7 setting.
This circulates water over the evaporator for the last 0 or 50 seconds of harvest. PM
is energized through the #5 pin (DBu wire) on the CB K1 ten-pin connector and the
X1 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later). When the
harvest timer expires, the harvest cycle is complete. CB checks the position of F/S and
proceeds to the freeze cycle if it is closed or calls for a 1-minute fill cycle if it is open. The
minimum total time allowed by CB for a complete harvest cycle is ꢀ minutes.
c) Freeze Cycle
LED 1 is on. Comp and FMR remain energized, PM energizes or remains energized
depending on harvest pump timer (S4 dip switch 7) setting. FM and LLV energize.
HGV and X1 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later)

de-energize. For the first 5 minutes, CB will not accept a signal from F/S. This minimum
5-minute freeze time is short cycle protection for Comp. At the end of 5 minutes, F/S
assumes control. As ice builds on the evaporator, the water level in the tank lowers. The
freeze cycle continues until F/S opens and terminates the cycle. There is a 15 second
delay before CB acknowledges an open F/S.
d) Pump-Out Cycle
LEDs 1, 3, and ꢀ are on. LED 4 is on when S4 dip switch 3 & 4 are set to 3 off and 4 on.
CAUTION! Do not adjust S4 dip switch 3 & 4 to 3 off and 4 on. Adjustment to this
position on this model prevents the unit from operating correctly and may cause
damage. For details, see "II.C.3.c) Pump-Out Timer (S4 dip switch 3 & 4)." Comp and
FMR remain energized, HGV energizes, WV energizes if S4 dip switch 3 off and 4 on.
LLV and FM de-energize. PM stops for ꢀ seconds then reverses, taking water from the
bottom of the tank and forcing pressure against the check valve seat allowing water to
go through the check valve and down the drain. At the same time, water flows through
the small tube to power flush F/S. When the pump-out timer expires, the pump-out is
complete.
The first pump-out occurs after the 11th freeze cycle, then every 10th cycle thereafter.
The pump-out frequency control is factory set, and generally no adjustment is required.
However, where water quality is bad and the icemaker needs a pump-out more often, the
pump-out frequency can be adjusted. The pump-out frequency control (S4 dip switch 5 &
6) can be set to have a pump-out occur every cycle, or every ꢀ, 5, or 10 cycles. Timing of
the first pump-out is dependent on S4 dip switch 5 & 6 settings. See the table below. For
details, see "II.C.3.d) Pump-Out Frequency Control (S4 dip switch 5 & 6)."

e) Harvest Cycle
Same as the initial harvest cycle. See "II.B.1.b) Initial Harvest Cycle."
Note: Unit continues to cycle until BC is satisfied or power is turned off. The unit always
restarts at the 1-minute fill cycle.
f) Shutdown
When ice contacts the thermostatic bulb (BC switch open), BC shuts down the unit within
10 seconds. The bin control is factory set, and generally no adjustment is required.
However, adjustment may be needed in some conditions, particularly at higher altitude
locations.

C. Control Board
• A Hoshizaki exclusive solid-state control board is employed in KM-1301SAH/3,
KM-1301SWH/3, and KM-1301SRH/3, Stackable Crescent Cubers.
• All models are pretested and factory set.
CAUTION
1. The control board is fragile; handle very carefully.
ꢀ. The control board contains integrated circuits, which are susceptible to
failure due to static discharge. It is especially important to touch the metal
part of the unit before handling or replacing the control board.
3. Do not touch the electronic devices on the control board or the back of the
control board.
4. Do not change wiring and connections. Do not misconnect K3, K4, and K5,
because the same connector is used for the thermistor, K4 jumper, and float
switch. The control board RED K4 connector must have the K4 jumper in
place for proper operation.
5. Always replace the whole control board assembly if it goes bad.
6. Do not short out power supply to test for voltage.

2. Features
a) Maximum Water Supply Period - 6 minutes
The inlet water valve will be open during harvest for 6 minutes or the length of harvest
minus 0 or 50 seconds (harvest pump timer (S4 dip switch 7)), whichever is shorter. For
details, see "II.C.3.e) Harvest Pump Timer (S4 dip switch 7)."
b) Harvest Backup Timer and Freeze Timer
The harvest backup timer shuts down the icemaker if, for two cycles in a row, the harvest
cycle takes more than ꢀ0 minutes to complete. The control board will signal this problem
using ꢀ beeps every 3 seconds.
The freeze timer shuts down the icemaker if, for two cycles in a row, the freeze cycle
takes longer than the time specified to complete. The control board will signal this
problem using 3 beeps every 3 seconds. The freeze timer is factory set using S4 dip
switch 9 & 10. For details, see "II.C.3.g) Freeze Timer (S4 dip switch 9 & 10).
The "ALARM RESET" button on the control board must be pressed with power on to
reset either of these safeties.
c) High Temperature Safety
The temperature of the suction line in the refrigeration circuit is limited by the high
temperature safety. This protects the unit from excessively high temperatures. If the
evaporator temperature reaches 1ꢀ7°F±7°F (53°C±4°C), the control board reads a .8 kΩ
signal from the thermistor and shuts down the icemaker.
The control board will signal this problem using 1 beep every 3 seconds. The "ALARM
RESET" button on the control board must be pressed with power on to reset the safety.
d) Low Water Safety
The control board checks the position of the float switch at the end of the initial 1-minute
fill cycle and at the end of each harvest cycle. If the float switch is in the up position
(electrical circuit closed), the control board changes to the next cycle. If the float switch
is in the down position (electrical circuit open), the control board changes to additional
1-minute fill cycles until water enters the tank and closes the float switch. When the float
switch closes, the control board changes to the next cycle. The unit will not start without
adequate water in the tank. This serves as a low water safety to protect the water pump.
For water-cooled model, if the condenser water supply is shut off, the unit is protected by
the high-pressure switch.
e) High Voltage and Low Voltage Cut-outs
The maximum and minimum allowable supply voltages of this icemaker are limited by
the high voltage and low voltage cut-outs. If miswiring (especially on single phase 3 wire
models) causes excessive voltage (147Vac±5% or more), the high voltage cut-out shuts
down the circuit in 3 seconds and the icemaker automatically stops. The control board
will signal this problem using 7 beeps every 3 seconds.
The icemaker also automatically stops in cases of insufficient voltage (9ꢀVac±5% or
less). The control board will signal this problem using 6 beeps every 3 seconds.
When the proper supply voltage is resumed, the icemaker automatically starts running
again.

f) LED Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties
At startup, a 5-second delay occurs while the control board conducts an internal timer
check. A beep occurs when the control switch is moved to the "ICE" position.
The red LED indicates proper control voltage and will remain on unless a control voltage
problem occurs. The green LEDs 1 through 4 energize and sequence from initial startup
as listed in the table below. Note that the order of the LEDs from the outer edge of the
control board is 1, 4, 3, ꢀ. For details, see "II.B. Sequence of Operation."

The harvest timer starts when the thermistor reads 48°F (9°C) at the evaporator outlet
and the control board reads the thermistor's 3.9 KΩ signal. The harvest timer is factory
set, and generally no adjustment is required. However, a setting longer than the factory
setting may be advised in cases where the flush provided at harvest needs to be
prolonged for extra cleaning. Before changing this setting, contact Hoshizaki Technical
Support at 1-800-ꢀ33-1940 for recommendations. Keep in mind that setting the harvest
timer to a longer setting decreases ꢀ4-hour production.

c) Pump-Out Timer (S4 dip switch 3 & 4)
CAUTION
Do not adjust S4 dip switch 3 off and S4 dip switch 4 on for this model.
Otherwise, pump motor does not rotate in the pump-out direction.
When a pump-out is called for, the pump motor stops after the preceding freeze cycle.
The pump motor restarts ꢀ seconds later in the reverse direction, taking water from the
bottom of the tank and forcing pressure against the check valve seat allowing water to
go through the check valve and down the drain. At the same time, water flows through
the small tube to power flush the float switch. The pump motor drains the water tank
for the time determined by the pump-out timer. The pump-out timer also acts in place
of the harvest timer during cycles with a pump-out. The pump-out timer is factory set,
and generally no adjustment is required. However, where water quality is bad and the
icemaker needs a longer pump-out time, the pump-out timer can be adjusted. The
pump-out timer control can be set to pump-out for 10 or ꢀ0 seconds.

The pump-out frequency control is factory set to drain the water tank every 10 cycles,
and generally no adjustment is required. However, where water quality is bad and the
icemaker needs a pump-out more often, the pump-out frequency can be adjusted. The
pump-out frequency control can be set to have a pump-out occur every cycle, or every
ꢀ, 5, or 10 cycles.
Timing of the first pump-out is dependent on S4 dip switch 5 & 6 settings. The first
pump-out is factory set to occur after the 11th freeze cycle. See the table below.

e) Harvest Pump Timer (S4 dip switch 7)
CAUTION
Factory set for proper operation. Do not adjust. Adjustment outside of the
factory default setting may result in damage to the icemaker.
Depending on the harvest pump timer setting, the pump motor energizes and runs
the last 0 or 50 seconds of harvest. When the pump is on, water circulates over the
evaporator. The water valve is open during harvest for a maximum of 6 minutes or the
length of harvest minus 0 or 50 seconds (determined by the harvest pump timer setting),
whichever is shorter.
When S4 dip switch 7 is on, the pump motor is energized through the #5 pin (DBu wire)
on the control board K1 ten-pin connector and the X1 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10
relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later). The #5 pin (DBu wire) is used in most applications
to reverse the pump motor or energize the drain valve in pump-out cycles. In this
application, it is used for the pump-out cycle (reverse rotation) as well as the harvest
pump timer (freeze rotation). Therefore, the harvest pump timer relays are needed to
control the pump motor direction during the pump-out and harvest cycles. See "III.B.
Wiring Diagrams."

CAUTION
Adjust to proper specification, or the unit may not operate correctly.
The freeze timer setting determines the maximum allowed freeze time to prevent
possible freeze-up issues. Upon termination of the freeze timer, the control board
initiates the harvest cycle. After ꢀ consecutive freeze timer terminations, the control
board shuts down the icemaker. In this case, see "IV.F.3. Low Ice Production" for
possible solutions. The freeze timer is factory set, and generally no adjustment
is required. Before changing this setting, contact Hoshizaki Technical Support at
1-800-ꢀ33-1940 for recommendations.

D. Bin Control
CAUTION
When the ambient temperature is below 45°F (7°C), the thermostatic bin
control switch opens and shuts down the icemaker even if the ice storage bin
is empty. When the thermostat is set in the prohibited range, the icemaker
operates continuously even if the ice storage bin is filled with ice. Setting in the
prohibited range may result in severe damage to the icemaker.
The thermostatic bin control switch is a temperature controlled switch used to control
the level of ice in the bin. It is in line with the power supply to the control switch.
The thermostatic bin control switch shuts down the unit within 10 seconds when ice
contacts the thermostatic bulb, regardless of the cycle at activation. The bin control
is factory set, and generally no adjustment is required. However, adjustment may be
needed in some conditions, particularly at higher altitude locations. For further details,
see "IV.C. Bin Control Check."
E. Float Switch
The float switch is used to determine that there is sufficient water in the tank after the
1-minute fill cycle and after each harvest cycle. The float switch is also used to determine
that the appropriate volume of water has been converted into ice before switching out of
the freeze cycle. No adjustment is required.
F. Thermistor
The thermistor is used as a harvest control sensor. The thermistor's resistance varies
depending on the suction line temperature. The control board monitors the resistance to
start the harvest timer. No adjustment is required.
G. Control Switch
The control switch has three positions: "OFF" for power off, "ICE" for icemaking, and
"WASH" to activate the water pump when cleaning and sanitizing.

ꢀ. Risk of electric shock. Use extreme caution and exercise safe electrical
practices.
3. Moving parts (e.g., fan blade) can crush and cut. Keep hands clear.
4. CHOKING HAZARD: Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews
are securely in place after the unit is serviced. Make sure that none have
fallen into the storage bin.
5. Make sure all food zones in the icemaker and storage bin are clean after
the unit is serviced. For cleaning procedures, see "VI. Cleaning and
Maintenance."
A. Diagnostic Procedure
The diagnostic procedure is basically a sequence check which can be used at unit
startup or for system diagnosis. This procedure allows you to diagnose electrical system
and component failures in normal operating conditions of 70°F (ꢀ1°C) or warmer air and
50°F (10°C) or warmer water temperatures. Before conducting the diagnostic procedure,
check for correct installation, proper voltage per unit nameplate, and adequate water
supply. Check CB using the steps in "IV.B. Control Board Check." Check the dip switch
settings to assure that S4 dip switch 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, & 10 and S5 dip switch 1 through 5 are
in the factory default position. S4 dip switch 1, ꢀ, 5, & 6 are cleaning adjustments and
the settings are flexible. For factory default settings, see "II.C.3.a) Default Dip Switch
Settings." As you go through the procedure, check to assure the components energize
and de-energize correctly. If not, those components and controls are suspect.
1) Turn off the power supply, then access the control box. Clear any ice from BC.
ꢀ) Turn on the power supply, then move the control switch to the "ICE" position. A
5-second delay occurs. The red "POWER OK" LED and the green "BC CLOSED" LED
on the CB come on. If the yellow "BC OPEN" LED is on (indicating a full bin), confirm
that the CB K4 jumper is in place. If missing, the unit cannot operate.

3) 1-Minute Fill Cycle – LED 4 is on. WV and Xꢀ relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0),
X11 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later) energize and the 1-minute fill cycle begins.
After 1 minute, CB checks for a closed F/S. If F/S is closed, the harvest cycle begins. If
closed, continue to step 4. If open, WV remains energized through additional 1-minute
fill cycles until water fills the tank and closes F/S (low water safety). Diagnosis: If WV
does not open, check the supply voltage at WV terminals, check continuity on the
coil, confirm the screen or external filter isn't plugged (no water flow). If unit fails to
start harvest, check for open F/S or bad 1-minute timer in CB. See "IV.D. Float Switch
Check and Cleaning" and "IV.B. Control Board Check."
4) Initial Harvest Cycle – LEDs 1, 4, and 2 are on. WV and Xꢀ relay (auxiliary code
T-0, U-0), X11 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later) remain energized, HGV, X1 relay
(auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later), Comp, and FMR
energize. CB monitors the warming of the evaporator via the thermistor located on the
suction line. When the thermistor reaches 48°F (9°C), CB reads a 3.9 kΩ signal from
the thermistor and turns harvest termination over to the harvest timer (S4 dip switch
1 & ꢀ). The harvest timer has settings of 60, 90, 1ꢀ0, and 180 seconds. For details,
see "II.C.3.b) Harvest Timer (S4 dip switch 1 & ꢀ)." When the harvest timer expires,
the harvest cycle is complete. CB checks the position of F/S and proceeds to the next
cycle if it is closed, or calls for a 1-minute fill cycle if it is open. The minimum total time
allowed by CB for a complete harvest cycle is ꢀ minutes.
WV is energized during harvest for a maximum of 6 minutes or the length of harvest
minus 0 or 50 seconds (harvest pump timer (S4 dip switch 7)), whichever is shorter.
LED 4 goes off when WV and Xꢀ relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X11 relay (auxiliary
code U-1 and later) de-energize. LED 3 comes on and PM energizes and runs for the
last 0 or 50 seconds of harvest depending on S4 dip switch 7 setting. CAUTION! Do
not adjust S4 dip switch 7 out of the factory default position on this model.
Adjustment outside of the factory default position may result in damage to the
icemaker. For details, see "II.C.3.e) Harvest Pump Timer (S4 dip switch 7)."
PM is energized through the #5 pin (DBu wire) on the CB K1 ten-pin connector and
the X1 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later). When
the harvest timer expires, the harvest cycle is complete. CB checks the position of
F/S and proceeds to the next cycle if it is closed or calls for a 1-minute fill cycle if it is
open. The minimum total time allowed by CB for a complete harvest cycle is ꢀ minutes.
Diagnosis: Check if Comp is running, HGV and WV still energized. Average harvest
cycle at factory setting is ꢀ to 3 minutes. How long does initial harvest last? 1.5 minutes
after initial harvest begins, touch Comp discharge line. Is it hot? If not, check refrigerant
pressures and Comp operation. If it is hot, touch the inlet line to the evaporator. Is it
hot? If it is hot and the freeze cycle is not starting, check the harvest timer adjustment
(S4 dip switch 1 & ꢀ), the thermistor for open circuit, the discharge line temperature,
Comp efficiency, and if HGV is fully open. For a thermistor check, see "IV.E. Thermistor
Check." Check that PM circulates water over evaporator for the last 50 seconds of
harvest. If not, check X1 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code
U-1 and later) and S4 dip switch 3 & 4. If 1-minute fill cycle starts, see "IV.D. Float
Switch Check and Cleaning."

5) Freeze Cycle – LED 1 is on. Comp and FMR remain energized, PM energizes
or remains energized depending on harvest pump timer (S4 dip switch 7) setting.
FM and LLV energize. HGV, and X1 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10 relay
(auxiliary code U-1 and later) de-energize. The unit is held in freeze by a 5-minute
short cycle protection timer (CB will not accept a signal from F/S). After the 5-minute
short cycle protection timer expires, CB turns freeze termination over to F/S. During
the first 5 minutes of freeze, confirm that the evaporator temperature drops. After
5 minutes in freeze, disconnect black F/S connector from CB BLACK K5 connector.
After a 15 second delay, the unit should switch out of the freeze cycle. Diagnosis: If
the evaporator is not cold, check to see if HGV is still open or if TXV is not opening
properly, if WV is continuing to fill the reservoir, if there are improper unit pressures,
an inoperative Comp, or an inoperative HM. If the unit switches out of freeze with F/S
connector removed, but would previously not switch out of freeze with F/S connected
(long freeze - 3 beep alarm), F/S may be sticking. To check and clean F/S, see "IV.
D. Float Switch Check and Cleaning." If the unit remains in freeze longer than 15
seconds after disconnecting black F/S connector, replace CB. See "V.P. Removal and
Replacement of Control Board."
Note: Normal freeze cycle will last ꢀ0 to 40 minutes depending on model and
conditions. Cycle times and pressures should follow performance data provided
in this manual. See "III.C. Performance Data."
6) Pump-Out Cycle – (10/20 second pump-out) – LEDs 1, 3, and 2 are on. LED 4 is on
when S4 dip switch 3 & 4 are set to 3 off and 4 on. CAUTION! Do not adjust S4 dip
switch 3 & 4 to 3 off and 4 on. Adjustment to this position on this model prevents
the unit from operating correctly and may cause damage. For details, see "II.
C.3.c) Pump-Out Timer (S4 dip switch 3 & 4)." Comp and FMR remain energized, HGV
energizes. WV energizes if S4 dip switch 3 off and 4 on. LLV and FM de-energize.
PM stops for ꢀ seconds, then reverses for 10/ꢀ0 seconds depending on pump-out
timer S4 dip switch 3 & 4 setting. When the pump-out timer expires, the pump-out
is complete. The pump-out frequency control is factory set for every 10th cycle, and
generally no adjustment is required. However, where water quality is bad and the
icemaker needs a pump-out more often, the pump-out frequency can be adjusted.
The pump-out frequency control (S4 dip switch 5 & 6) can be set to have a pump-out
occur every cycle, or every ꢀ, 5, or 10 cycles. For details, see "II.C.3.d) Pump-Out
Frequency Control (S4 dip switch 5 & 6)."
Timing of the first pump-out is dependent on S4 dip switch 5 & 6 settings. See the table

Diagnosis: If PM does not reverse, check to see if CB S4 and S5 dip switch settings
are in the factory default position. If S4 dip switch 3 and 4 are adjusted to 3 off and
4 on, WV and harvest pump timer relays energize. Once these relays energize, the
pump motor rotates in the freeze cycle rotation. See "III.B. Wiring Diagrams." Check
PM circuit and capacitor, check #5 pin (DBu wire) on CB K1 ten-pin connector for
voltage, harvest pump timer X1 and Xꢀ relays (auxiliary code T-0 and U-0), X10 and
X11 relays (auxiliary code U-1 and later). If water does not pump out, check and clean
the check valve assembly and tubing.
7) Normal Harvest Cycle – same as the initial harvest cycle – Return to "IV.A.4) Initial
Harvest Cycle."
8) Shutdown
When the unit is running hold ice in contact with the thermostatic bulb, the thermostatic
BC switch opens within 10 seconds, shutting down the unit. The bin control is factory
set, and generally no adjustment is required. However, adjustment may be needed in
some conditions, particularly at higher altitude locations. Diagnosis: See "IV.C. Bin
Control Check."

B. Control Board Check
Before replacing a control board that does not show a visible defect and that you
suspect is bad, always conduct the following check procedure. This procedure will help
you verify your diagnosis.
Alarm Reset: If the control board is in alarm (beeping), press the "ALARM RESET"
button on the control board with power on. Once reset, the unit starts at
the 1-minute fill cycle. For audible alarm information, see "II.C.ꢀ.f) LED
Lights and Audible Alarm Safeties."
1) Check the dip switch settings to assure that S4 dip switch #3, 4, 7, 8, 9, & 10 and
S5 dip switch 1 through 5 are in the factory default position. S4 dip switch 1, ꢀ, 5, & 6
are cleaning adjustments and the settings are flexible. For factory default settings, see
"II.C.3.a) Default Dip Switch Settings."
ꢀ) Move the control switch to the "ICE" position. If the red "POWER OK" LED is on, the
control voltage is good. If the "POWER OK" LED is off, check the control transformer
secondary circuit. The control transformer secondary circuit includes the cleaning valve
interlock switch. Make sure the interlock switch is closed; otherwise, no control voltage
is supplied to the Kꢀ connector. Transformer output is 10.5V at 115V primary input. If
the secondary circuit has proper voltage and the red LED is off, the control board is
bad and should be replaced. See "V.P. Removal and Replacement of Control Board."
If the secondary circuit does not have proper voltage, check the control transformer
primary circuit. Check for 115V at the control board K1 ten-pin connector. Check the
#10 pin (BR wire) to a white neutral wire for 115V. (Always choose a white neutral wire
to establish a good neutral connection when checking voltages.) For additional checks,
see "IV.F.1.[1] The icemaker will not start."
3) The "OUTPUT TEST" button provides a relay sequence test. Make sure the control
switch is in the "ICE" position, then press the "OUTPUT TEST" button. The correct
lighting sequence is 1, 4, 3, ꢀ. Note that the order of the LEDs from the outer edge
of the control board is 1, 4, 3, ꢀ. Components (e.g., compressor) will cycle during the
test. Following the test, the icemaker resumes operation. If the LEDs do not light as
described above, the control board is bad and should be replaced. See "V.P. Removal
and Replacement of Control Board."
4) To verify voltage output from the control board to the components, slide the control
board K1 ten-pin connector out far enough to allow multimeter lead contact. With the
unit in the cycle to be tested, check output voltage from the corresponding pin on the
control board K1 ten-pin connector to ground. If output voltage is not found and the
appropriate LED is on, the control board is bad and should be replaced. See "V.P.
Removal and Replacement of Control Board."

C. Bin Control Check
To check the thermostatic bin control, follow the steps below.
CAUTION
When the ambient temperature is below 45°F (7°C), the thermostatic bin
control switch opens and shuts down the icemaker even if the ice storage bin
is empty. When the thermostat is set in the prohibited range, the icemaker
operates continuously even if the ice storage bin is filled with ice. Setting in the
prohibited range may result in severe damage to the icemaker.
The bin control is factory set, and generally no adjustment is required. However,
adjustment may be needed in some conditions, particularly at higher altitude locations.
1) Turn off the power supply.
ꢀ) Remove the front panel, then remove the control box cover.
3) Disconnect the thermostatic bin control wires from the thermostatic bin control switch.
4) Clear any ice away from the thermostatic bulb, then hold your hand around the
thermostatic bulb to warm it up.
5) Check for continuity across the thermostatic bin control switch. If closed, continue to
step 6. If open, adjust or replace the thermostatic bin control.
6) With the multimeter test leads still in place, hold ice on the thermostatic bulb to lower
the temperature. Within 10 seconds, the thermostatic bin control switch should open
(no continuity). If it remains closed, adjust or replace the thermostatic bin control.
D. Float Switch Check and Cleaning
The float switch is used to determine that there is sufficient water in the tank after the
1-minute fill cycle and after each harvest cycle. The float switch is also used to determine
that the appropriate volume of water has been converted into ice before switching out of
the freeze cycle. No adjustment is required.
1. Float Switch Check
To check the float switch, follow the steps below.
1) Turn off the power supply.
ꢀ) Remove the front panel and move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
3) Remove the insulation panel, then remove the cap located on the front bottom part of
the ice dropping hole. Drain the water tank.
4) Replace the cap in its correct position. Be careful not to cross thread it.
5) Remove the control box cover.
6) Disconnect the black float switch connector from the control board BLACK
K5 connector.
7) Check for continuity across the float switch leads. With the water tank empty, the float
switch should be open. If open, continue to step 8. If closed, follow the steps in "IV.
D.ꢀ. Float Switch Cleaning." After cleaning the float switch, check it again. Replace if
necessary.
54

8) Reconnect the black float switch connector to the control board BLACK K5 connector,
then replace the control box cover in its correct position.
9) Move the control switch to the "ICE" position. Replace the insulation panel and the
front panel in their correct positions, then turn on the power supply. After 1 minute, the
1-minute fill cycle should end and the initial harvest cycle should begin. If the initial
harvest cycle begins, the float switch is good and the check is complete. If the initial
harvest cycle does not begin, continue to step 10.
10) Turn off the power supply.
11) Remove the front panel.
1ꢀ) Move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
13) Remove the control box cover.
14) Disconnect the black float switch connector from the control board BLACK
K5 connector.
15) Check for continuity across the float switch leads. With the water tank full, the float
switch should be closed. If the float switch is closed and the icemaker will not switch
from the 1-minute fill cycle to the initial harvest cycle, replace the control board.
If open, confirm that the water tank is full. If the tank is not full, check the water supply,
water filters, and inlet water valve. If the tank is full, follow the steps in "IV.D.ꢀ. Float
Switch Cleaning." After cleaning the float switch, check it again. Replace if necessary.
2. Float Switch Cleaning
Depending on local water conditions, scale may build up on the float switch. Scale on the
switch can cause the float to stick. In this case, the float switch should be cleaned.
1) Turn off the power supply.
ꢀ) Remove the front panel and move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
3) Remove the insulation panel, then remove the cap located on the front bottom part of
the ice dropping hole. Drain the water tank.
Vent
4) Replace the cap in its correct position. Be
careful not to cross thread it.
Flush
5) Disconnect the vent tube and the flush
tube from the top of the float switch, then
remove the float switch assembly from the
mounting bracket and remove the rubber
boot from the bottom of the float switch
assembly. See Fig. 1.

7) Wipe down the float switch assembly's housing, shaft, float, and retainer rod with a
mixture of 1 part of recommended cleaner Hoshizaki "Scale Away" or "LIME-A-WAY"
(Economics Laboratory, Inc.) and ꢀ5 parts of warm water. Clean the inside of the
rubber boot and hose with the cleaning solution. Rinse the parts thoroughly with clean
water.
8) Reassemble the float switch assembly and replace it and the rubber boot in their
correct positions. Reconnect the vent tube and the flush tube.
9) Move the control switch to the "ICE" position.
10) Replace the insulation panel and front panel in their correct positions.
E. Thermistor Check
To check thermistor resistance, follow the steps below.
1) Turn off the power supply.
ꢀ) Remove the front panel, then move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
3) Remove the control box cover.
4) Remove the thermistor. See "V.L. Removal and Replacement of Thermistor."
5) Immerse the thermistor sensor portion in a glass containing ice and water for ꢀ or
3 minutes.
6) Remove the white thermistor connector from the control board WHITE K3 connector
and check the resistance between thermistor leads. Normal reading is within 4.7 to
6.ꢀ kΩ. If outside the normal reading, replace the thermistor. If inside the normal
reading, continue to the next step.
7) Replace the thermistor in its correct position. See "V.L. Removal Replacement of
Thermistor."
8) Reconnect the white thermistor connector to the control board WHITE K3 connector.
9) Replace the control box cover in its correct position, then turn on the power supply.
10) Move the control switch to the "ICE" position.
11) Once the harvest cycle starts, begin timing the harvest cycle.
1ꢀ) The harvest timer should expire and terminate the harvest cycle within ꢀ to 3 minutes.
If the harvest timer does not expire and terminate the harvest cycle, the harvest timer is
bad and the control board should be replaced. See "V.P. Removal and Replacement of
Control Board."

V. Removal and Replacement of Components
WARNING
1. This unit should be diagnosed and repaired only by qualified service
personnel to reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire.
ꢀ. Move the control switch to the "OFF" position and turn off the power supply
before servicing.
3. CHOKING HAZARD: Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews
are securely in place after the unit is serviced. Make sure that none have
fallen into the storage bin.
4. Make sure all food zones in the icemaker and storage bin are clean after
the unit is serviced. For cleaning procedures, see "VI. Cleaning and
Maintenance."
A. Service for Refrigerant Lines
WARNING
1. Repairs requiring the refrigeration circuit to be opened must be performed by
properly trained and EPA-certified service personnel.
ꢀ. Always recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container. Do not
discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.
3. Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a
trace of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and
then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A
as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.
CAUTION
1. The Polyol Ester (POE) oils used in R-404A units can absorb moisture
quickly. Therefore it is important to prevent moisture from entering the
system when replacing or servicing parts.
ꢀ. Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is
opened.
3. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been
made. Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the
refrigerant flow.
4. When brazing, protect the drier by using a wet cloth to prevent the drier from
overheating. Do not allow the drier to exceed ꢀ50°F (1ꢀ1°C).
5. Do not leave the system open for longer than 15 minutes when replacing or
servicing parts.
1. Refrigerant Recovery
The icemaker is provided with refrigerant service valves. Using proper refrigerant practices,
recover the refrigerant from the service valves and store it in an approved container. Do not
discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.
65
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
2. Brazing
WARNING
1. R-404A itself is not flammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up
to 176°F (80°C).
ꢀ. R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to
high temperatures (open flames), R-404A can be decomposed to form
hydrofluoric acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.
3. Do not use silver alloy or copper alloy containing arsenic.
4. Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a
trace of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and
then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A
as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.
1) Braze all fittings while purging with nitrogen gas flowing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.
Note: Because the pipes in the evaporator case are specially coated to resist corrosion,
it is important to make connections outside the evaporator case when possible. If
it is necessary to braze inside the evaporator case, use sandpaper to remove the
coating from the brazing connections before unbrazing the components.
CAUTION
1. Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is
opened.
ꢀ. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been
made. Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the
refrigerant flow.
3. When brazing, protect the drier by using a wet cloth to prevent the drier from
overheating. Do not allow the drier to exceed ꢀ50°F (1ꢀ1°C).
ꢀ) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of
refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the
pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A as a mixture with
pressurized air for leak testing.
3. Evacuation and Recharge (R-404A)
1) Attach a vacuum pump to the system. Be sure to connect the charging hoses to both
high and low-side service valves.
IMPORTANT
The vacuum level and vacuum pump may be the same as those for current
refrigerants. However, the rubber hose and gauge manifold to be used for
evacuation and refrigerant charge should be exclusively for POE oils.
ꢀ) Turn on the vacuum pump. Open the gauge manifold valves. Then, open the high and
low-side service valves. Never allow the oil in the vacuum pump to flow backwards.
66
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
3) Allow the vacuum pump to pull down to a ꢀ9.9" Hg vacuum. Evacuating period depends
on pump capacity.
4) Close the low-side valve and high-side valve on the gauge manifold.
5) Disconnect the gauge manifold hose from the vacuum pump and attach it to a
refrigerant service cylinder. Remember to loosen the connection and purge the air
from the hose. For air-cooled and water-cooled models, see the nameplate for the
required refrigerant charge. For remote air-cooled model, see the rating label inside the
icemaker. Hoshizaki recommends only virgin refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which
meets ARI Standard 700 (latest edition) be used.
6) A liquid charge is recommended for charging an R-404A system. Invert the service
cylinder and place it on scales. Open the high-side valve on the gauge manifold.
7) Allow the system to charge with liquid until the proper charge weight is met.
8) If necessary, add any remaining charge to the system through the low-side. Use a
throttling valve or liquid dispensing device to add the remaining liquid charge through
the low-side service valve with the unit running.
9) Close the high and low-side service valves. Then, close the high and low-side gauge
manifold valves and disconnect the gauge manifold hoses.
10) Cap the service valves to prevent a possible leak.
B. Removal and Replacement of Compressor
CAUTION
1. Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is
opened.
ꢀ. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been
made. Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the
refrigerant flow.
3. When brazing, protect the drier by using a wet cloth to prevent the drier from
overheating. Do not allow the drier to exceed ꢀ50°F (1ꢀ1°C).
Note: When replacing a compressor with a defective winding, be sure to install the
new start capacitor and start relay supplied with the replacement compressor.
Due to the ability of the POE oil in the compressor to absorb moisture quickly,
the compressor must not be opened more than 15 minutes for replacement or
service. Do not mix lubricants of different compressors even if both are charged
with R-404A, except when they use the same lubricant.
1) Turn off the power supply.
ꢀ) Remove the panels.

B. Maintenance Instructions
IMPORTANT
This icemaker must be maintained individually, referring to the instruction
manual and labels provided with the icemaker.
1. Stainless Steel Exterior
To prevent corrosion, wipe the exterior occasionally with a clean, soft cloth. Use a damp
cloth containing a neutral cleaner to wipe off oil or dirt build up.
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 storage bin.
• Clean the scoop and the storage bin liner using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly
after cleaning.
3. Air Filters (self-contained air-cooled models)
Plastic mesh air filters remove dirt and dust from the air, and keep the condenser from
getting clogged. As the filters get clogged, the icemaker's performance will be reduced.
Check the filters at least twice a month. When clogged, use warm water and a neutral
cleaner to wash the filters.
4. Condenser (self-contained and remote air-cooled models)
Check the condenser once a year, and clean the coil if required by using a brush or
vacuum cleaner. More frequent cleaning may be required depending on location.
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 models only, first remove the water from the water-cooled
condenser:
1) Turn off the power supply and remove the front panel and right side panel.
ꢀ) Close the condenser water supply line shut-off valve. If connected to a closed loop
