Bin operation
General operation of unit
Ice in the hopper section of the ice management system falls through the ice chute in front of the bin and into the
cart, Totes ice carrier or bag when the chute gate is pulled up. The ow of ice is stopped by pushing down on the
chute gate. The SmartGATE restricts the ow of ice into the hopper area and can be adjusted and locked at one of
several levels to accommodate the ow characteristics of different types of ice.
Adjusting SmartGATE
The bin is shipped with the inner SmartGATE in the full down position, the best position for slippery cubes which
ow well into the hopper through the cut-out in the bottom of the gate. For less slippery ices, the SmartGATE can
be raised and locked in a higher position for better ow or when more access is needed.
1. Use full-length handle at top of SmartGATE to pull gate up.
(Loose ice will cascade into hopper.)
2. If adequate ice has moved into hopper, push gate back down.
3. To lock gate at a higher level, pull up and hold gate at correct
level (catch will automatically release when you pull up), and
push tapered end of catch into nearest hole in gate.
4. To release catch, pull up on gate.
Note: SmartGATE and ice chute gate must both be in full
down position before access door can be closed.
