The bin control uses devices that sense light, therefore they must be kept clean enough so that they can "see". At least twice a year, remove the bin control sensors from the base of the ice chute, and wipe the inside clean, as illustrated. The ice machine senses water level by a SLIDE UP TO REMOVE ICE CHUTE ICE LEVEL SENSORS SLIDE LEFT TO REMOVE RESERVOIR WATER LEVEL SENSOR Inspect the assembly, looking for wear 4. Use a vacuum cleaner or coil cleaner if needed. Check and tighten all bolts and screws. ICE SWEEP ////////////////////////////////////// CAUTION: THE TIP IS MADE OF GLASS /////////////////////////////////////// probe located in the water reservoir. At least twice a year, the probe should be removed from the reservoir, and the tip wiped clean of mineral buildup. The top bearing in the breaker should also be checked at least two times per year. Check the breaker bearing by: · removing the ice chute cover · unscrewing the ice sweep · removing the water shed · using a spanner wrench and unscrewing the breaker cover (left hand thread) · unscrewing the auger stud SPANNER WRENCH BREAKER COVER December, 1988 Page 24 FM800R MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING In some areas the water supply to the icemaker will have a great deal of minerals in it, and that will result in ann evaporator and auger becoming coated with these minerals, requiring a more frequent removal than twice per year. If in doubt about the condition of the evaporator and auger, the auger can be removed so the parts can be inspected. Note: Water filters can filter out suspended solids, but not dissolved solids. "Soft" water may not be the complete answer. Check with a water treatment specialist regarding water treatment For more information on removal and replacement of these parts, see REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT. To remove the auger, remove the front and top panels. Remove 3 hex studs holding ice chute cover to ice chute, and remove cover. Loosen band clamp under ice chute, and remove ice chute from evaporator. Remove 4 allen screws holding breaker to evaporator. After the auger has been removed, allow the auger to dry; if the auger is not bright and shiny, it must be cleaned. Clean the auger and evaporator as required. Reverse to reassemble.

[. . . ] If the replacement part does not have a number written on the cover, and no shims were shipped with it, do not use ANY shims. Bench test the gearmotor, check for oil leaks, noise, and amp draw. NOT use the schrader valves at the front of the unit for weighing in the charge. All liquid R-502 must be weighed into the receiver through the "front seated" king valve".
