Starting Procedure (Initial Start-Up):
(NOTE: The machine will start in the harvest mode when set to “Ice” )
1. Set the “Clean/Off/Ice” selector switch to the “Clean” position.
2. Push the “Start” button (PB2) to start the water pump.
3. The pump can be stopped and started by the “Stop” and “Start” push buttons. Water should be
circulated for a minimum of five (5) minutes to prime the pump, purge the tubing of air and
lubricate the cutter bearing.
Note: If pump is already primed skip steps 1-3
4. When there is good water flow, turn the “Clean/Off/Ice” selector switch to “Ice”. The machine
will then start in a harvest (thaw) period with the compressor running.
5. At the termination of the harvest (thaw) period, the machine will begin the freeze period.
6. Be sure to observe a minimum of four (4) cycles of ice production to confirm the satisfactory
operation of the machine (approximate time for four cycles is 60-80 minutes).
Complete the remaining part of the “Warranty Registration/Start-Up Report” upon initial machine
start-up and return it to Vogt Ice, LLC.
