Do not attach hoists or slings to the freezing tubes, These tubes constructed of No. 16 gauge materil are easily damaged, Protect the ‘tubes at all times during unloading and erection and Keep the wooden ‘sipportng frame and clamps in postion until the unit sin a vertical Boston init final location. Lifting lugs have been provided to facil tate handling of the freezing section. Do not attach hols to other points when transporting the unit, cose as posible to the place where the ice wil be used. f possible, the machine should be mounted directly over the ica storage room ‘This eliminates complicated and exponsive conveyor equipment need 1d to transport the ice from the Shellee Maker ta the storaye aea, ‘Aa opening in the roof of the storage area wil sllow the ice to fa ireetly trom the machine into the lee storage, Ifthe room is square and the ies sie is located in the center of the elling, the ice wil ci. ‘rioute Wel eveny in the room, Hitt decided to mount the Shll-lce Maker inthis fasion, the stor: ‘ge area must be constructed so thet I wll support the welght ofthe ‘machine. A steel framework on concrete foundtion is recor mend S, Nominal oosating weight for your Shel-ice Maker fisted in Fable It itis necesory to place the Shel-lce Maker on the same level with ‘the storage r00m a sultable conveyor must be used to raise the ice to ‘the proper height for dropping it nto the storage. An enclosed serew ‘ype conveyor i satisfactory Tor this purpose. 24052088 Page 4 IGE STORAGE It isnot preeties! to store large quantities of fragmentary ie for tong periods of time, "Shell co” is no exception; however, due to the Carved surface there i les tendency for Shellie to stick together in forage, A storage of sufficient size to Hold not more than 3 devs sup- ly is recommended, Since “Shel Ico" weighs approximately 34 ls er eubie foot, the storave should be constructed accordingly. Be {ure to insulate the storage with urethane or ingulation equivalent to retard melting and sticking of the ice It is nat resommended to store "Sh Lee ins bin with sides sloping {toward a amaler opening in the Bottom.

Bolt in place at the four points drown on the assembly drawings. “The ice and water spin sheets should be installed next. These sheets sr in sections and wil bo shipped ina separate erate with the ma thine. Install the end water shoots withthe slotted end down and the flanges facing each other as shown onthe assembly drawings. Fasten the sheets to the frame at points shown using the round head serews and mute provided. D9 not omit the lock washes. Draw the bolts finger tight only. The end ice sheets are bent at an angle of aporox. imately 10° and should be attached vo the flanged end sheets so that ‘they extond inward towards the ies breaker. ‘Now install the ice breaker side sheets.

FRICK SHELL - ICE MAKERS RESTARTING SHAFT ‘Now install the restorting device (Fa. 1) in its proper position onthe frame ae shown on the drawing Inert the long end of the shaft (Fig 2} through the opening in the back of the contol panel. Be sure the water defeeting rubber washers are in place Bolt the bearing brackets in place and tighten al bolts. Adjust the thrust clamps on each end ofthe restarting shaft (Fi 2) for minimum tend movement of this shaft. 1/16” movement is desirable, Check ster adjusting to Insure that there is no binding of this shaft ‘Aajust the feler arms on the restartr shaft so that ll feelers touch ‘the tubes at the some time. This is best accomplished by adjusting ‘wo end feeler arms first Tighten all clamping bolts securely.
