Product overview

The Hoshizaki KM-116BAK combines an air-cooled crescent ice maker and a 53-lb built-in storage bin in a 23¾-inch-wide cabinet.

A stainless steel evaporator and exterior, CycleSaver design and EverCheck alert system support daily ice service.

The front-in, front-out airflow and removable air filter allow access from the front for routine filter care. Keep the air openings and required service clearances unobstructed. A slide-in bin door provides access to the ice.

Installation and utilities

Have qualified personnel install the machine indoors on a firm, level surface in accordance with the instruction manual and local electrical and plumbing requirements. Operate within 45–100°F ambient temperature, 45–90°F water temperature and 10–113 PSIG water pressure. Plan for access to the bin, electrical connection, water shut-off and drainage; ice output varies with ambient and incoming-water temperature.

Allow at least 12 inches at the front and ⅝ inch above the machine for maintenance, plus enough rear space for water and drain connections. Connect the grounded three-prong plug to an independent, properly grounded outlet. Do not use an extension cord or adapter. If GFCI protection is required, use a GFCI breaker rather than a GFCI receptacle.

R-290 refrigerant is flammable. Do not puncture refrigeration tubing or use ignition sources near the refrigerant system. Leave refrigeration service to qualified technicians.

Water supply and drainage

Provide potable ice-making water through at least ¼-inch nominal-ID copper tubing or equivalent to the ½-inch FPT inlet. Connect the ¾-inch FPT ice-maker drain to at least ¾-inch nominal-ID hard pipe or equivalent. Use a vented tee and at least ¼ inch of fall per foot on horizontal drain runs, with a minimum 2-inch vertical air gap above the floor drain. Allow sufficient line length to pull the machine out for service. Select any external water treatment for local water quality with a qualified installer.

Cleaning and maintenance

Clean and thoroughly rinse the ice scoop daily. Wipe the exterior monthly with a soft cloth and neutral cleaner. Inspect the air filter every two weeks and wash it with warm water and neutral cleaner when dirty. Clean and sanitize the machine and storage-bin liner at least yearly, or more often as water quality, the operating environment and sanitation rules require.

Follow the complete cleaning and sanitizing sequence in the instruction manual, including its power-disconnection steps and rinse cycles. Do not use ammonia cleaners, leave cleaning solution in the machine or serve ice made with cleaning or sanitizing solution. Use the chemical manufacturer’s specified protective equipment. For extended non-use or freezing conditions, follow the manual’s shutdown and drainage procedure.

Warranty

Limited coverage includes three years of parts and labor on the machine, five years of parts and labor on the evaporator and five years of compressor parts and air-cooled condenser parts. Coverage is for the original owner/user, subject to proper installation, use, maintenance and the written terms. Register within 30 days of installation. Standard coverage applies in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and U.S. territories. Travel, mileage, premium labor and failures caused by external utilities or inadequate maintenance are excluded; review the full warranty before purchase.
