Product overview
The Hoshizaki HCD-500B stores up to 647 lb of crescent ice and dispenses it into bags using a foot-operated control. Its 30-inch-wide cabinet combines an insulated storage bin with a stainless steel auger and an agitator. The bagger does not make ice; select a compatible crescent-cube ice machine separately.
- 647 lb storage: Holds crescent cube ice supplied by a separate ice machine.
- 120 lb/min ice drop rate: Dispensing throughput, not daily ice production or a finished-bag count.
- Foot-operated filling: 24V pedal control and an adjustable stainless steel bag shelf.

Bag filling and bin access
Position the bag on the adjustable shelf for filling through the front nozzle. The front shovel door provides access to the bin, and its safety interlock prevents operation while the door is open. Keep the interlock functional and never bypass it.
The cabinet has a seamless polyethylene liner and foamed-in-place polyurethane insulation in the walls and bottom. A square-tube leg base supports the bin. The supplied 48-inch ice paddle is separate from the powered auger and agitation mechanism.
Selecting an ice machine and installation space
Use a crescent-cube ice machine and confirm the exact head, top opening, adapter and structural support before ordering. Allow for the combined bagger, mounting hardware and ice-head height. Ice production and finished-bag output depend on the selected ice machine, bag size and operation; the 120 lb/min figure describes ice dispensing.
Plan for the full 52.5-inch depth, not just the 36-inch cabinet body. Leave access to the front shovel door, bag-filling position and rear drive cover. Have the installer confirm the electrical connection, branch circuit, drain fitting, meltwater drainage and separate ice-head utilities against the exact supplied equipment instructions.
Operation, care and service
Obtain the operating and sanitation instructions for the exact model and serial number before commissioning. Follow the specified cleaning materials, intervals and safe service procedure for the bagger and the separately selected ice machine. Do not reach into or service the powered auger or agitator while the system can operate.
