1. If you do not have the light of the switch on, it is because there is no voltage.

2. The machine has a delay time once it is connected. You should wait 10 minutes. If after 10 minutes it does not start, you should check the timer.

3. Does the water get into the machine? If the water doesn’t arrive, the machine has a magnetic float which interrupts the operation.

1. Do you have a clean air condenser? If it is dirty it should be cleaned. If it is a machine cooled by water, you should check that the water comes in and out of the condenser.

2. Is the condensation pressure switch working correctly? The pressure switch must connect the fan when the pressure reaches 18 Bar and must disconnect the fan when the pressure is at 15.5 Bar.

3. Is the high pressure safety pressure switch working properly? You must stop the machine if the pressure reaches 30 Bar. It will restart the machine when the pressure returns to 21 Bar.

1. The buoy installed in the blue water tank must be regulated to prevent that the water leaves the overflow and falls through the ice chute.

2. If the evaporation temperature is higher than it should be, the ice can get very wet and water can fall out of the ice chute. (The correct temperature of each machine should be indicated)

1. ¿Qué temperatura de evaporación tiene? La temperatura de evaporación influye mucho en la producción.

2. ¿Qué temperatura de agua y ambiente tiene? La producción de las máquinas está calculada con 15ºC de agua y 20ºC de ambiente. Por encima de esta temperatura, la producción disminuye.

2. What temperature of water and environment do you have? The production of the machines is calculated with 15ºC of water and 20ºC of environment. Above this temperature, the production decreases.

1. Check that water reaches the evaporator (transparent tube without bubbles).

2. Clean the evaporator according to the protocol.

3. Reset the thermal relay if it has tripped. If necessary, increase the intensity of the relay.

4. Check if water enters the machine

1. Check if voltage reaches the water pump

2. Check if water enters the machine

3. Check the status of the water pump filter

1. Check the status of the injectors. Possibility of obstruction due to dirt.

2. Possible lack of water.

3. Check if the machine runs out of water during ice production.

* Please note that for the correct operation of the machine, it may take 2-3 cycles for it to stabilise at optimum ice production. Especially in models with programmer (SS 135) this state can be forced, adding water manually or turning the cams to start another filling cycle.

1. In what number is the cycle thermostat regulated? On the thermostat there is a red dot indicating the factory set?

2. The ice come up fuller / larger increasing the number of the thermostat regulation. The regulation goes from 1 to 7 (more number indicates fuller)

* Please note that for the correct operation of the machine, it may take 2-3 cycles for it to stabilise at optimum ice production. Especially in models with programmer (SS 135) this state can be forced, adding water manually or turning the cams to start another filling cycle.

1. Check the status of the buoy micro.

2. Check if the voltage reaches the water inlet valve.

3. Check the regulation of the buoy.

1. Check the micro installed on the connecting rod of the water bin

2. Check that the high pressure safety pressure switch has continuity.

3. Check the status of the relay

1. The fingers of the evaporator must be clean and without limescale.

2. Check that the hot gas valve opens when the relay sends voltage.

1. Is the motor that moves the paddles working?

2. Check the motor micro that moves the paddles. This micro activates the hot gas valve.

1. Check that the relay sends voltage to the turner motor

2. Check if the voltage reaches the turner motor

3. Check that the turner motor doesn’t have the anchor loose, and that the rod of the tray is positioned correctly.

1. Check the mics of the turner motor. These mics are responsible of controlling the movement of the engine.

2. Check the micro of the agitator motor micro (paddles engine)

1. Regulate the stock thermostat installed in the electrical panel. More number indicates more ice in the ice bin.

2. Check the status of the high pressure safety pressure switch.

1. Is the machine well leveled? The machine must be completely level or even angled forward.

2. The evaporator must be clean. It should be cleaning with phosphoric acid 50% and with hot water.

1. Check that the cleaning switch installed in the electrical panel is in the ICE position.

2. Does the voltage arrive to the compressor? If voltage arrives and it doesn’t work, the compressor must be replaced.

1. Check the water level probe installed next to the water pump. This probe detects the water level in the ice bin.

2. Check the status of the electronic board

In the lower left side of the curtain there is a magnet which detects the ice level and for the machine. Check that the magnet and the micro of this magnet are in its position.

1. Check that the sensor thickness is not too close to the evaporator (3 to 5 mm).

2. Check that the drain valve closes correctly. If it remains open due to lime, the water is lost through the drain during the manufacture.

3. Check that the hot gas valve does not remain open during manufacturing.

1. Check that tension reaches the electrical panel.

8. Check that remote stop or security button are not activated.

1. With the water tap adjust the water in the upper distributor, so that the level is below the mark on the center screw of the tray.

2. Check that the tray that collects the water (lower part) is not broken.

3. Check the water pipes irrigation, if necessary, cover the last one (before the milling cutter).

4. Check that the distributor pipes are not broken.

1. Check photocell, bridge electrical panel on terminal to verify that it is a photocell fault.

3. Check that the light beam has the inclination necessary (minimum operation distance 25 cm). If a conduit for ice fall has been installed, make a window in the light beam zone.

4. Check cabling, as well as possible second photocell.

In units with frequency shifter, lower the frequency, as far as 30 Hz, to increase flake thickness.

For very soft water, the flake (size) can be increased by adding salt to the water, 3%.

1. Check that the water pump functions correctly, and that the water filter is not obstructed.

2. Check the evaporator. The whole evaporator should be cold. If necessary, adjust expansion valve, to -22 ºC.
