Hoshizaki FD-1002MRJZ-C 821 lb/Day Remote-Cooled Small Cubelet Ice Machine for Dispensers
FD-1002MRJZ-C
Product overview
The Hoshizaki FD-1002MRJZ-C makes small cubelet ice for beverage service in a 22-inch-wide modular head. Its stainless steel exterior houses a stainless steel auger with a greaseless-bearing design. Advanced CleanCycle24 provides a two-second flush every hour to remove sediment; routine cleaning and sanitizing are still required.
This remote air-cooled head has no built-in ice storage. Select a manufacturer-approved cubelet-compatible dispenser or ice bin and the required mounting or top kit separately. A matched remote condenser and line set are also required and sold separately.
- Small cubelet ice: For a compatible beverage dispenser or ice-storage installation.
- 22-inch nominal width: Check the full head profile, mounting openings and utility connections.
- Up to 821 lb/day: At 70°F air and 50°F water; 680 lb/day at 90°F air and 70°F water.

Storage, mounting and service access
Match the head to a cubelet-compatible dispenser or an approved ice bin at least 22 inches wide. Verify the exact top kit, support, discharge opening and bin-control position before ordering; cabinet width alone does not establish fit. The FD mounting layout uses a 5¼-inch ice-discharge opening and a minimum 1½-inch bin-control opening. Do not substitute another series’ opening locations.
Install level on a firm foundation indoors, away from ovens, grills and other high-heat equipment. Leave 6 inches at the rear and sides and 24 inches above for auger removal, plus front access and utility allowances. Check the dimension drawing against the complete installed assembly rather than treating the nominal cabinet size as a fit guarantee.
Remote condenser installation
Confirm the matched condenser and line set for the exact head and serial number with Hoshizaki before ordering. Have a qualified installer verify the wiring diagram for the delivered head and condenser before connecting power; do not assume an independent condenser supply.
Locate the remote condenser outdoors at −20–122°F with at least 24 inches of clearance at the front and rear. Maximum vertical separation is 33 feet above or 10 feet below the head, measured fitting to fitting. Standard line routing is up to 66 feet; runs above 66 feet, up to 100 feet, require the specified larger tubing and added-charge procedure. The installer must braze, leak-test and commission the matched system, insulate the lines separately and provide a service loop without coiling excess tubing. Power the head for at least four hours before startup.
Utilities and controls
A qualified installer must connect the independent grounded supply and connect the white lead to neutral. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a receptacle. Match the delivered nameplate before electrical work.
Fit potable-water shutoff and drain valves and select water treatment for local water quality. Keep head, storage and any open condenser drains separate, with vented tees, at least ¼ inch fall per horizontal foot and a minimum 2-inch vertical air gap at each outlet. Do not pipe drains directly into the sewer.
Confirm the auxiliary code when arranging bin-control service: N-2 uses infrared sensing, while N-3 and later use ultrasonic sensing with mechanical backup. Install and test the correct control so the head stops when the selected storage assembly is full.
Cleaning and maintenance
Clean the ice scoop daily. Check external water filters and clean the exterior, bin-control lens, underside and top-kit surfaces monthly. Clean and sanitize the head and storage assembly at least every six months; site conditions may require more frequent care. Keep the drains clear and have the extruding-head seal bolts inspected. Removed seal bolts must be replaced.
Arrange yearly qualified checks of valves, hoses, the condenser, fasteners and upper-bearing wear. After three years, include both bearings, the lower O-ring, mechanical seal, cylinder and auger in annual inspections. Disconnect and lock out power before service. Follow the exact cleaning solution and rinsing procedure, wear protective gloves and goggles, and do not use ammonia-type cleaners or serve ice made from cleaning solution.
Limited warranty
For serial numbers VxxxxxJ and later, coverage includes three years parts and labor on the machine and five years parts on the compressor and applicable air-cooled condenser coil. Confirm coverage for earlier serial numbers. Coverage is for the original owner/user in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and U.S. territories, subject to installation, maintenance and other exclusions. Register within 30 days of installation and retain installation records. Read the full limited warranty.
