[d] Storage Bin Door
Clean the storage bin door at least once a week, using a neutral non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning and
sanitise as required.
[e] Air Filter (Air-Cooled Model Only)
Plastic mesh air filters remove dirt or dust from the air, and keep the condenser from getting clogged. If the filters get clogged,
the icemaker's performance will be reduced. Remove and clean the air filter(s) at least twice per month:
1) Slide the air filter off the louver.
2) Clean the air filter by using a vacuum cleaner. When severely clogged, use warm
water and a neutral cleaner to wash the air filter.
3) Rinse and dry the air filter thoroughly.
After cleaning, be sure to place the air filter back in position.
2. INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
To achieve optimum icemaker performance, the following parts need periodic inspection and maintenance:
Extruding head (upper bearing)
Housing (lower bearing)
Mechanical seal
[a] Inspection
These parts should be inspected after two years from installation or 10,000 hours of operation, whichever comes first, and once
a year afterwards. Replacement of these parts is required if wear exceeds factory recommendations.
Their service life, however, depends on water quality and environment. More frequent inspection and maintenance are
recommended in bad or severe water conditions.
Consult with your local Hoshizaki service agent about inspection and maintenance service.
[b] Replacement
The extruding head (upper bearing) and mechanical seal must be replaced after four years from installation or 20,000 hours of
operation, whichever comes first, to prevent the risk of serious accidents or failures. Contact your local Hoshizaki service agent
for replacement.
When the total operating time reaches 20,000 hours, the display flashes "PC". Then, after 500 hours, the unit shuts down to
ensure safety. Contact your local Hoshizaki service agent for replacement as soon as the display starts flashing.
Once the unit shuts down after 500 hours, the operation can be resumed by turning off the operation switch and turning it back
on. But the unit shuts down again after 500 hours. To resume the operation, contact your local Hoshizaki service agent for the
required replacement.
Replacement of the housing (lower bearing) may be required depending on water quality and wear condition.
