Section 4
Step 6
Mix a solution of de-scaler and lukewarm water.
Depending upon the amount of mineral buildup, a larger
quantity of solution may be required. Use the ratio in the
table below to mix enough solution to thoroughly clean all
parts.
Solution Type
Water
De-scaler
1 gal. (4 L)
Step 7
Use 1/2 of the de-scaler/water mixture to clean
all components. The de-scaler solution will foam when it
contacts lime scale and mineral deposits; once the foaming
stops use a soft-bristle nylon brush, sponge or cloth (NOT
a wire brush) to carefully clean the parts. Soak parts for
5 minutes (15-20 minutes when heavily scaled). Rinse all
components with clean water.
Step 8
While components are soaking, use 1/2 of the
de-scaler/water solution to clean all foodzone surfaces of
the ice machine and bin (or dispenser). Use a nylon brush or
cloth to thoroughly clean the following ice machine areas:
•
Evaporator plastic parts – including top, bottom and
sides
•
Bin bottom, sides and top
Rinse all areas thoroughly with clean water.

SANITIZING PROCEDURE
Step 9
Mix a solution of sanitizer and lukewarm water.
Solution Type
Water
Sanitizer
3 gal. (12 L)
Step 10 Use 1/2 of the sanitizer/water solution to sanitize
all removed components. Use a spray bottle to liberally
apply the solution to all surfaces of the removed parts or
soak the removed parts in the sanitizer/water solution. Do
not rinse parts after sanitizing.
Step 11 Use 1/2 of the sanitizer/water solution to sanitize
all foodzone surfaces of the ice machine and bin (or
dispenser). Use a spray bottle to liberally apply the solution.
When sanitizing, pay particular attention to the following
areas:
•
Evaporator plastic parts - including top, bottom and
sides
•
Ice machine base (top of bin) and area above the water
trough
•
Bin sides and bottom
Do not rinse the sanitized areas.
Step 12 Replace all removed components.
Step 13 Wait 25 minutes.
Step 14 Reapply power to the ice machine and place the
toggle switch in the CLEAN position.
Step 15 Wait until the water trough refills, then add the
proper amount of Manitowoc Ice Machine Sanitizer to the
water trough.

start ice making.
