For The Manager Who Depends Upon This Machine For Efficient Operation.
“Preventive Maintenance” simply means that you or a delegated employee makes a daily visual check
of your Tube-Ice
®
machine. Here is what to look for and why:
Daily checklist:
1. Is the machine running or is the bin full
2. Bin doors kept closed
3. Thermostat bulb in bracket
4. Ice quality (clarity and uniformity)
5. Does all ice discharge during harvest
6. Cleanliness
7. Unusual noises
Why? When you make these simple observations on a daily basis, you insure the smooth production
of ice for your facility. When you are aware of the proper operating conditions and observe them on a
daily basis, changes in these conditions can alert you to changes in the operation of the machine which
may require maintenance--long before a service situation arises.
“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!”
