Breaking ice bridges
I
t may be necessary to use the paddle to break up ice bridges that occur along the sides and in the middle of the bin.
This often happens if ice has been held in storage for a period of time without use. Use supplied paddle accessory to
break up bridges.
!
Do NOT dig up at ice. Instead, break away "legs" that are holding bridges. Ice above will
then fall.
To avoid injury, do not attempt to break up bridged ice through upper windows or hopper
shutter door. A falling ice bridge can cause paddle to lift. Keep head and face away from
paddle handle to avoid injury.
1. Completely knock down all ice from sides and back of bin.
2. Knock down any bridge that has occurred in middle.
3. Agitate paddle back and forth to break up congealed ice mass.
SmartGATE operation
SmartGATE can be adjusted and locked at one of several levels to accommodate flow characteristics of different
types of ice.
Bin is shipped with SmartGATE in full down position. SmartGATE can be raised and locked in higher position for
better flow or when more access is needed.
