Hoshizaki F-822MAK-C 653 lb/Day Air-Cooled Small Cubelet Ice Machine
F-822MAK-C
Product overview
The Hoshizaki F-822MAK-C is an air-cooled modular ice machine that produces up to 653 lb of small cubelet ice per 24 hours at 70°F air and 50°F water. It supplies one ice-making head without built-in storage; select the storage assembly and any required top kit separately. The stainless steel exterior houses the ice-making system above the selected storage bin.
A stainless steel auger, greaseless-bearing design and ultrasonic bin control support continuous ice production. Advanced CleanCycle24 runs a two-second flush each hour to help remove sediment. This automatic flush complements scheduled cleaning and sanitation; it does not replace them.
- Small cubelet ice: 653 lb/day at 70°F air / 50°F water.
- Modular head only: Storage bin and any required top kit sold separately.
- Advanced CleanCycle24: Two-second flush every hour.

Daily production is not storage capacity. Ice output and utility consumption depend on air and water temperatures, water quality and installation conditions. Confirm the complete head, storage assembly and top-kit dimensions before final fit-out, including door access and utility connections.
Storage assembly and mounting
Select a compatible ice storage bin or a cubelet-compatible dispenser approved for the complete installation. The storage assembly and any required top kit are separate purchases; confirm exact compatibility before ordering.
Use a storage assembly at least 22 inches wide. The BD 300 series is a recommended bin range, subject to the exact mounting and top-kit requirements. For R-290, the bin or dispenser must have no electrical components or be specifically designed for use with flammable refrigerants. Align the 170 mm ice-drop opening, minimum 38 mm ultrasonic-sensor opening and mounting holes. Keep the bin-control sensing path unobstructed and secure the head using the installation procedure.
B-1500SS and B-1650SS bin applications require two ice-making heads. This product supplies one head; do not treat those two-head arrangements as a complete included system.
Installation and site requirements
Install indoors on a firm, level foundation, away from ovens, grills and other high-heat equipment. Leave 6 inches at the rear and sides for airflow and service, and 24 inches above for auger removal. Allow access to the front panels and sufficient utility-line movement for service. Level the complete head-and-bin assembly before operation. The operating room must stay within 45–100°F; drain and prepare the machine for non-use before exposure below freezing.
Provide at least 7.2 m² (77.3 sq. ft.) of room floor area for operation or storage. Do not install in a public corridor or lobby. Have the installer verify the delivered nameplate and applicable R-290 installation requirements.
R-290 is flammable. Keep ignition sources away, protect the refrigerant circuit, and use qualified flammable-refrigerant service technicians. Store the machine without continuously operating ignition sources. Follow the delivered instructions for all location and safety requirements.
Electrical and water connections
Have a qualified electrician hardwire an independent, grounded 115V / 60Hz / single-phase supply with 20 A minimum circuit ampacity and 20 A maximum fuse/HACR breaker protection. Connect the white lead to neutral. The ⅞-inch electrical opening accepts ½-inch trade-size conduit. Match the delivered nameplate and applicable codes; if GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a GFCI receptacle.
Connect potable water at 45–90°F and 10–113 PSIG through the ½-inch FPT inlet, using at least ¼-inch nominal-ID copper tubing or equivalent. Provide shutoff and drain valves, correct water hammer and select filtration or treatment for local water quality. This air-cooled model does not require condenser-water plumbing.
Use at least ¾-inch nominal-ID hard pipe or equivalent for the head drain. Keep the head and storage-assembly drains independent, with vented tees, a ¼-inch fall per horizontal foot and at least a 2-inch vertical air gap above an approved drain. Do not pipe drains directly into the sewer. Have qualified personnel confirm drainage before operation.
Cleaning and maintenance
Clean and thoroughly rinse the ice scoop daily. Inspect air filters every two weeks and wash dirty filters with warm water and neutral cleaner. Wipe the exterior monthly with a clean, soft cloth and neutral cleaner.
Arrange monthly qualified service for external water filters, the ultrasonic bin-control lens, the underside of the head and top kits, and bin-door or snout surfaces. Clean and sanitize the machine and storage assembly at least every six months, including the evaporator and gear-motor drain pans and clear drainage paths. Six-month service also checks extruding-head seal bolts; bolts must be replaced after removal.
Annual service includes the inlet and drain valves, hoses, condenser, general component condition and upper-bearing wear. After three years, have both bearings, the lower-housing O-ring, mechanical seal, evaporator cylinder and auger inspected annually. Increase service frequency when water quality, use or local sanitation requirements demand it. Disconnect power before service and use qualified technicians for the prescribed cleaning, refrigerant and bearing procedures.
Limited warranty
Limited coverage provides three years of machine parts and labor for the original owner/user, with compressor and air-cooled condenser parts covered through year five. Register within 30 days of installation and retain installation records. Standard coverage applies in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and U.S. territories. Travel, mileage and premium labor charges are excluded, as are damage from improper installation, utilities or maintenance. Review the written warranty for start-date rules and full terms.
