PKU0155 PART REMOVAL
1.
Remove two thumbscrews and water pump cover.
2.
Remove the vinyl hose connecting the water pump
and water distribution tube.
3.
Remove Water Pump:
• Disconnect the water pump power cord.
• Loosen the screws securing the pump mounting
bracket to the bulkhead.
• Lift the pump and bracket assembly off the
mounting screws.
4.
Remove the ice thickness probe by compressing the
side of the ice thickness probe near the top hinge pin
and remove it from the bracket.
NOTE: At this point, the ice thickness probe can
easily be descaled. If complete removal is desired,
follow the ice thickness probe wire to the bulkhead
grommet (exit point) in the back wall. Pop the
bulkhead grommet out of the back wall by inserting
fingernails or a flat object between the back wall and
the grommet and prying forward. Pull the bulkhead
grommet and wire forward until the connector is
accessible, then disconnect the wire lead from the
connector.
Ice thickness probe Descale:
• Mix a solution of ice machine descaler and water (2 ounces of descaler to 16
ounces [60 ml to 500 ml] of water) in a container.
• Soak the ice thickness probe a minimum of 10 minutes.
Descale all ice thickness probe surfaces and verify the ice thickness probe cavity is
descaled. Rinse thoroughly with clean water, then dry completely. Incomplete rinsing
and drying of the ice thickness probe can cause premature harvest.
