Minimum Maximum 1000F. 1000F. 80 PSI 126 MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 Service Limitations Do not install in a location where the top of the machine is within 6" of a fixed ceiling. Do not install air cooled models in a location where there is less than 6" clearance to the left and right of the cabinet. 20 PSI 104 Operating the machine outside of the above limitations, or outdoors, is potentially damaging to the machine; also it is misuse of the machine, which may void the warranty. Scotsman Ice Systems are designed and manufactured with the highest regard for safety and performance. They meet or exceed the standards of UL and NSF. Scotsman assumes no liability or responsibility of any kind for products manufactured by Scotsman that have been altered in any way, including the WALL use of any part and/or other components not CUT AWAY specifically approved by Scotsman. Scotsman reserves the right to make design changes and/or improvements at any time. Specifications and design are subject to change without notice. Water Limitations An ice machine is a food manufacturing plant; it takes a raw material, water, and turns it into a food product, ice. The purity of the water is very important in obtaining pure ice and in maximizing product life. This section is not intended as a complete resource for water questions, but it does offer these general recommendations: 1. Filter the water used to produce ice. That is the water going to the "potable" water connection. Water filters vary greatly in ability and function. Install one that filters out suspended solids to a dimension of 5 microns or smaller. The finer the filter the better, but finer filters will clog sooner than course ones. It may be necessary to add a course filter ahead of the fine filter to prolong filter life. 2. Check with a water treatment specialist for a water test, and recommendations regarding filters and treatment. 6" SPACE FOR AIR (A/C) Airflow CEILING CUT AWAY SPACE ABOVE FOR SERVICE SPACE FOR UTILITIES 6" SPACE FOR AIR (AIR COOLED) May 2001 Page 3 MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 FOR THE INSTALLER Location After uncrating and inspection, the unit is ready for installation. It is important that the machine be installed in a location where it has enough space above and behind it for service. Air cooled models require a minimum of 6 inches to the left and right of the machine for air circulation. Machine Stand Installation Tip the stand on its back and install the legs, return the stand to the upright position. Adjust leg levelers so that the stand does not "rock". Counter Top or Machine Stand Installation The base of the icemaker-dispenser must be sealed to the object it rests upon. Food grade silastic sealant such as Scotsman part number 19-0529-01 is recommended. Place a bead of the sealant on the machine stand or counter top to match the outside edge of the cabinet base and sink. The icemaker-dispenser is heavy: use of a mechanical hoist is recommended to lift it to the height required to install it. The DMS machine stand has holes in the top that match up with threaded holes in the icemaker-dispenser. Place the cabinet onto the machine stand, so that the unit is lined up with the holes. Secure the ice maker-dispenser to the machine stand with bolts and washers. In both counter top and machine stand installations, wipe off and neatly smooth any excess sealant. Level the machine stand and cabinet. Unpack and install the sink brackets. Fit the sink assembly onto the two sink brackets, and press onto the bead of sealant. Wipe off and neatly smooth any excess sealant from under the sink edge. Unpack and install the ice and water spouts. Ice Spout: Slide up and over ice outlet. No fastener is required to hold it in place. Water Spout: Slide over stainless steel water discharge tube, locate and match up with notches in the base. Rotate clockwise to move spout into installed position. Ice Spout SEAL THE UNIT TO THE COUNTER OR STAND Water Spout May 2001 Page 4 FOR THE INSTALLER: Wall Mount Kit CAUTION It is recommended that the wall mounting installation be done by an experienced contractor. The weight of the machine when in use may exceed 350 pounds. The unit should be mounted on a solid, rigid wall with proper fasteners for that type of wall and of adequate strength to support the weight of the machine when in use. Clearance between the wall and the icemaker is a maximum of 1 inch. Check utility connections first. The electrical junction box will have to be removed, and the electrical connections made inside the cabinet in compliance with local codes. The plumbing connections may be made through the base, or at either side through the pre-punched holes, using standard plumbing practices. Interior plumbing lines must be disconnected from the original connections and plugged when MDT6N40=38.6" routing through the side or base. 1. Remove machine top. Attach bracket "A" to machine using (3) nuts, (3) flat washers, (3) lock washers, and (3) 5/16-18 bolts received with the kit.

(hardware for this is not included). Use fasteners and wall of sufficient strength to carry the use and weight of the icemaker-dispenser. 3. Lift unit up and hook bracket "A" over bracket "B". Slide unit until the two remaining holes are aligned and secure with the remaining (2) 1/4-20 bolts, flat washers and lock washers. B 12" 12" C May 2001 Page 5 MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 FOR THE PLUMBER Water Inlet CONFORM TO ALL APPLICABLE CODES Air Cooled Models: The recommended water supply is clean, cold water. Use 3/8" O.D. copper tubing, connect to the 3/8" male flare at the back of the cabinet. Install a hand valve near the machine to control the water supply. Water Treatment: In most areas, a water filter of some type will be useful. In areas where the water is highly concentrated with minerals the water should be tested by a water treatment specialist, and the recommendations of the specialist regarding filtration and/or treatment should be followed. Water Cooled Models: A separate 3/8" O.D. copper line is recommended, with a separate hand valve to control it. It is connected to a 3/8" FPT condenser inlet at the back of the cabinet. The water pressure to all lines must always be above 20 psig, and below 80 psig. WATER INLET CABINET DRAIN OPTIONAL WATER FILTER Drains Air Cooled Models: There is one 3/4" FPT drain at the back of the cabinet, the drain line is of the gravity type, and 1/4 inch per foot fall is an acceptable pitch for the drain tubing. There should be a vent at the highest point of the drain line, and the ideal drain receptacle would be a trapped and vented floor drain. Use only 3/4" rigid tubing. Water Cooled Models: In addition to the above mentioned drain, a separate condenser drain must be installed. Connect it to the 1/2" condenser drain connection at the back of the cabinet.

Check the nameplate (located on the back panel) for the voltage requirements, and for the minimum circuit ampacity. The machine requires a solid chassis to earth ground wire. The ice maker should be connected to its own electrical circuit so it would be individually fused. Voltage variation must remain within design limitations, even under starting conditions. All external wiring must conform to national, state, and local electrical codes. The use of a licensed electrician is required to perform the electrical installation. JUNCTION BOX MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 CONFORM TO ALL APPLICABLE CODES INDIVIDUAL CIRCUIT FOR ICE DISPENSER July 2003 Page 7 MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 FOR THE INSTALLER: Final Check List 1. Is the icemaker-dispenser installed indoors, in a location where the air and water temperatures are controlled, and where they do not go beyond design limitations? 2. Is there an electrical disconnect (switch or plug as required) within sight of the installed machine? Is the machine on a separate circuit? Has the voltage been checked and compared to nameplate requirements? 3. Have all of the plumbing connections been made and checked for leaks? 4. Has the machine been leveled? ICEMAKER DISPENSER BACK VIEW OF COMPLETED INSTALLATION ELECTRICAL? LEVELED? 5. Is there a minimum of 6 inches of clearance at PLUMBING? the left and right sides of an air cooled machine? 6. Is there a minimum of 6 inches of clearance at the top and back of the machine for service and utility connections? Wall mounted only: Is the machine properly installed and secured to the wall? 7. Is there a water shut off valve installed near the machine? MACHINE STAND July 2003 Page 8 INITIAL START UP Pre Start Inspection 1. Remove the two front panels. 2. Check that all shipping blocks have been removed. 3. Remove any and all packing tape (check inside the storage bin). 4. Inspect the interior of the machine for loose screws or wires. Check that no refrigerant lines are rubbing each other. Check that the fan blade on air cooled models turns freely. 5. Check that the machine is installed correctly according to the final check list. Start Up 1. Go through the pre start inspection. 2. Open the water hand valve, observe that water enters the water reservoir, fills the tube from the reservoir to the evaporator and then shuts off. Check for leaks. 3. Switch the master switch on. The electrical start up sequence is automatic; there will be a short (15 second) delay before the machine starts. 4. On air cooled models, warm air will begin to flow from the condenser. Water cooled models will begin to discharge warm water down the drain. 5. The unit should soon be making ice. If desired, the low side pressure may be checked: it should be 38 PSIG + or - 2 PSIG. The air cooled discharge pressure will depend upon air and water temperatures, but should be between 240 PSIG and 340 PSIG. Water cooled discharge pressure should be about 245 PSIG. If needed, adjust the water regulating valve. The above numbers are for new, clean machines. Field values may be somewhat higher or lower. 6. There are no adjustments to make, so replace the panels. 7. Check ice dispensing by holding a container in front of the Touch Free ice sensor (just below the ice delivery spout). Ice should flow from the spout when a container is present, and stop dispensing when the container is removed. MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 8. Switch off the icemaker-dispenser, remove the top panel and the top of the ice storage bin. Sanitize the interior of the ice storage bin by wiping it with a mixture of 1 ounce of household bleach to 2 gallons of water, allow to air dry. Replace all covers and panels. Switch the icemaker-dispenser back on. 9. Give the owner/user the service manual, instruct him/her in the operation and maintenance requirements of the unit. Make sure they know who to call for service. 10. Fill out the Customer Evaluation and Warranty Registration form, and mail it in to Scotsman. May 2001 Page 9 MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION High Pressure Cut Out Switch: A manual reset switch sensing the high side refrigeration pressure. It is set to shut the machine off if the discharge pressure should ever exceed 450 psig. Evaporator: A vertical stainless steel tube, refrigerated, and water filled. In it there is a stainless steel auger. Reservoir: Float operated, it maintains the water level in the evaporator at a constant level, it also contains the water level sensor. Water Level Sensor: Senses if there is water in the reservoir to make ice out of. Will shut the machine off it there is none. Ice Level Sensor: An electronic "eye", it senses the presence of ice in the bottom of the ice discharge chute. Operates to turn the ice machine on and off ICE LEVEL SENSORS automatically as the level of ice WATER LEVEL in the bin changes. Drain Tube: When uncapped and lowered, drains the evaporator. Condenser: Air or water cooled, where the heat removed in ice making is discharged. Ice Storage Bin Assembly: A plastic lined, insulated cylinder that receives, stores and dispenses the ice. Fresh ice enters at the top, and when the bin is full enough the ice will be between the ice level sensors, and the ice making will stop. Ice is dispensed through a chute at the bottom front when the bin vane sweeps the ice over the chute. SENSOR EVAPORATOR RESERVOIR DRAIN TUBE HIGH PRESSURE CUT OUT ICE STORAGE BIN CONDENSER TOUCH FREE SENSOR May 2001 Page 10 COMPONENT DESCRIPTION Evaporator: A refrigerated vertical tube filled with water and containing a water seal and auger. Auger: A solid stainless steel double spiral auger, it pushes the ice crystals up to the top of the evaporator. Water Seal: A two part "face" seal, the top half rotating with the auger, the bottom half stationary, the sealing action being where the two seal "faces" meet. Ice Sweep: A plastic cap with "fingers". It revolves with the auger to "sweep" the ice into the ice chute. Breaker: Where the ice is compressed and much of the extra water is squeezed out of it before it is discharged into the bin. MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 Motor: A split phase motor that drives the gear reducer. Thrust Bearing: As the ice is pushed up the evaporator, the auger is thrust down, and pressure from the auger thrust is taken up by this bearing. ICE SWEEP BEARING BREAKER EVAPORATOR MOTOR AUGER WATER SEAL May 2001 Page 11 MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 Circuit Board: The circuit board receives input signals from several sensors and translates them to control the electrical power supply to the various loads. The sensors include: COMPONENT DESCRIPTION: Control Box START CAPACITOR The loads include: ·Touch Free ice or water. ·Ice level in the bin. ·Water level in the reservoir. ·Compressor contactor ·Fan motor ·Bin drive motor ·Auger drive motor ·Water solenoid. CONTACTOR POTENTIAL RELAY ON-OFF SWITCH In addition, a "Clean" switch is available to temporarily disable the Touch-Free sensors for cleaning of the splash panel. On/Off Switch: Manual control for the machine. Contactor: A definite purpose contactor connecting the compressor to the power supply. Potential Relay: The compressor start relay. CIRCUIT BOARD May 2001 Page 12 ELECTRICAL SEQUENCE Refer the wiring diagram as needed. The "Power" light on the board glows whenever there is power to the machine (and the master switch is ON). If the machine is switched off at the master switch, but is otherwise ready to go, switching the master switch to ON does the following: MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 After a 6 minute delay, If the ice level sensor is clear (bin empty) for more than 15 seconds, the machine will start up again. Another purpose of the circuit board is to turn the machine off if there is not enough water in the machine. ·The bin empty and power lights on the circuit ·There is a 15 second delay ·If there is enough water in the reservoir, the board glow. ·When the water level circuit board will allow the machine to start up.

If the user does not remove the container, ice will be dispensed for 60 seconds and then stop. ·A switch, located next to the water spout, may be pushed to disable the Touch-Free sensors for splash panel cleaning. It automatically resets after 2 minutes, or, if pushed within the 2 minutes, resets the circuit board to enable the Touch Free sensors. Splash Panel Cleaning or Touch Free Disable Switch May 2001 Page 13 MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 OPERATION: Water Water enters the machine through the 3/8" male flare at the rear of the cabinet, goes to a strainer and then to the water reservoir which it enters through the float valve. The water then goes out the bottom of the reservoir tank to the bottom of the evaporator. Reservoir overflow, evaporator condensation and water in the sink are all routed to the drain. Water cooled models have a separate water circuit for the cooling water: it enters the fitting at the rear, goes to the water regulating valve, then to the water cooled condenser and down the drain. There is also an additional water circuit to an electric valve. When the Touch Free system senses a container for water, it closes a circuit to the electric water valve, and water is dispensed. Note: The correct water level is determined when the machine is operating. Check the water level and compare it to the line molded into the side of the reservoir. The water level should be between " above and " below the line. If needed, adjust the water level by bending the float arm. WATER RESERVOIR WATER LEVEL WATER INLET WATER DRAIN WATER LINE FOR WATER STATION May 2001 Page 14 OPERATION: Refrigeration Beginning at the compressor, the refrigerant is compressed into a high temperature gas. The discharge line directs this gas to the condenser. At the condenser (air or water cooled) the gas is cooled by either air or water and it then condenses into a liquid. This high pressure liquid then goes through the liquid line to the expansion valve. The thermostatic expansion valve meters liquid refrigerant into the evaporator, the volume of liquid refrigerant depending upon the temperature of the evaporator; warmer evaporators get more refrigerant and colder evaporators get less. MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 At the evaporator, the refrigerant enters an area of relatively low pressure, where it can easily "boil off" or evaporate. As it evaporates, it absorbs heat from the evaporator and whatever is in contact with it (such as the water inside it). After the evaporator, the refrigerant, now a low pressure vapor, goes through the suction line back to compressor, where the cycle is repeated. REFRIGERATION SCHEMATIC SUCTION LINE LIQUID LINE DISCHARGE LINE EVAPORATOR CONDENSER COMPRESSOR THERMOSTATIC EXPANSION VALVE May 2001 Page 15 MDT5N25 & MDT5N40 OPERATION: Ice Vending Dispensing takes place when the Touch Free sensor's infrared beam bounces back to the sensor from a container placed directly in front of it. If the container is in front of the Touch Free sensor on the left side, the ice dispensing vane will rotate and sweep ice over the ice dispensing chute: ice will continue to discharge out this chute as long as the vane is turning. It stops when the dispensing vane stops. If the container is in front of the Touch Free sensor on the right side, the inlet water valve will open and water will flow into the container.

In order to receive the best return for that investment, it MUST receive periodic maintenance. It is the USER'S RESPONSIBILITY to see that the unit is properly maintained. It is always preferable, and less costly in the long run, to avoid possible down time by keeping it clean; adjusting it as needed; and by replacing worn parts before they can cause failure. The following is a list of recommended maintenance that will help keep the machine running with a minimum of problems. Maintenance and Cleaning should be scheduled at a minimum of twice per year. Sanitizing of the ice storage bin should be scheduled for a minimum of 4 times a year. Electrical power will be ON when doing in place cleaning. ICEMAKING SYSTEM: In place cleaning 1. Check and clean any water treatment devices, if any are installed. 2. Remove screws and remove the upper front panel. 3. Move the ON-OFF switch to OFF. 4. Remove the cover to the ice storage bin, and remove the ice. 5. Remove the cover to the water reservoir and block the float up. 6. Drain the water reservoir and freezer assembly using the drain tube attached to the freezer water inlet. Return the drain tube to its normal upright position and replace the end cap. 7. Prepare the cleaning solution: Mix eight ounces of Scotsman Ice Machine Cleaner with three quarts of hot water. The water should be between 90-115 degrees F. Scotsman Ice Machine Cleaner contains acids. These compounds may cause burns. If swallowed, DO NOT induce vomiting. Give large amounts of water or milk. Call Physician immediately. In case of external contact, flush with water. Keep out of the reach of children. 9. As the ice maker begins to use water from the reservoir, continue to add more cleaning solution to maintain a full reservoir. 10. After all of the cleaning solution has been added to the reservoir, and the reservoir is nearly empty, switch the master switch to OFF. 11. After draining the reservoir, as in step 6, wash and rinse the water reservoir. To Sanitize: Repeat steps 8-11, only use an approved sanitizing solution in place of the cleaning solution. A possible sanitizing solution to use could be 1 ounce of household bleach mixed with 2 gallons of warm (95oF. - 115oF.) water. 12. Remove the block from the float in the water reservoir. 13. Switch the master switch to ON 14. Continue ice making for at least 15 minutes, to flush out any cleaning solution. Check ice for acid taste - continue icemaking until ice tastes sweet. DO NOT USE any ice produced from the cleaning solution. Be sure no ice remains in the bin. 15. Remove all ice from the storage bin. 16.
