Ice-machine selection

BD-SF bins accommodate shallow-depth heads, but matching cabinet width or depth alone does not establish compatibility. Check the complete ice-machine suffix, ice-drop position, bin control and required adapters before ordering.

The BD-500SF application group includes KMD-355M, KMD-460M, KMD-505M, KMD-530M, KMD-705M and KMD-860M. Air-cooled KMD-460MAJ and KMD-530MAJ combinations require the HS-5065 front-panel filter kit. Use the exact model instructions and top-kit matrix for the final combination.

Installation and drainage

For a KMD-355/505/705M installation, run the storage-bin drain separately from the ice-machine drain and any water-cooled condenser drain. Provide a vented tee, a ¼-inch fall per foot on horizontal runs and a minimum 2-inch vertical air gap above the floor drain. Do not connect the drain directly to the sewer. Have the installer follow applicable plumbing requirements and the KMD-355/505/705M installation manual; other approved heads require their own installation instructions.

Cleaning and ice handling

For the KMD-355/505/705M system, clean the scoop daily with a neutral cleaner and rinse thoroughly. Wipe the bin door, snout, underside of the ice machine and top kits monthly. Clean and sanitize the complete ice-machine and bin system at least yearly, or more often when water quality, operating conditions or sanitation requirements call for it. Follow the linked manual’s full procedure and power-isolation precautions.

Limited warranty

January 2012-and-later production carries a three-year limited parts-and-labor warranty for the original owner/user, subject to proper installation, use and maintenance. Register within 30 days of installation. Standard straight-time labor at the product location is covered; travel, mileage and premium charges are excluded. Read the complete written warranty for coverage territory, exclusions and claim requirements.
