MOLD THERMOSTAT
This is a single-pole, single-throw, bimetal switch. It starts an ejection cycle by closing at 18°F ± 5°. The
reset temperature is 50°F± 5°. The thermostat is in series with the mold heater and acts as a safety
against overheating in case of a mechanical failure.

SHUTOFF ARM
The shutoff arm is cam driven. It operates a switch to control the quantity of ice produced. During the
ejection cycle the arm is raised and lowered during each of the two revolutions of the timing cam. The
arm has a manual shutoff built into the linkage; by raising the arm as high as possible, it will lock in that
position until forced down.

MOLD SWITCHES
These three switches are single-pole, double-throw style. They are identical and interchangeable.
The holding switch assures completion of a revolution once a cycle has started.
The water valve switch opens the water valve during the fill stage of the cycle. NOTE: This is the
only adjustable component of the ice maker. If you use a double-throw switch, DO NOT use the N.O.
terminal.
The shutoff switch stops the ice maker’s operation
when the storage bin is full.
