iNSTRUCTiONS
Instatl the shutoff valve on the nearest frequently
used
drinking
water line.
1. SHUT OFF THE MAIN
WATER SUPPLY
Turn on the nearest faucet to relieve the pressure on
the line.
2. CHOOSE THE VALVE LOCATION
Choose a location for the valve
that is easily accessible,
it is best to
connect into the side of a vertical
water pipe. When it is necessary to
connect into a horizontal
water pipe,
make the connection
to the top or
side, rather than at the bottom, to
avoid drawing
off any sediment from the water pipe.
3. DRILL THE HOLE FOR THE VALVE
Drill a I/4 in. hole in the water pipe using a sharp bit.
Remove any burrs resulting from
drilling
the hole in the pipe. Be
careful not to allow water to
drain into the drill. Failure to
drill a 1/4 in. hole may result
in reduced
ice production
or
smaller cubes.
NOTE: The hookup line cannot be white, plastic
tubing. Licensed plumbers
must use only copper
tubing NDA tubing :#49595 or 49599 or Cross Link
Polyethylene
(PEX) tubing.
4. FASTEN THE SHUTOFF VALVE
