2. Float Switch Cleaning
Depending on local water conditions, scale may build up on FS. Scale on FS can cause
the oats to stick. In this case, FS should be cleaned and checked.
1) If not already removed, remove the front panel.
2) Move thet power switch to the "OFF" position, then unplug the appliance from the
electrical outlet.
3) Remove the oat switch assembly from the reservoir cover. See Fig. 3.
4) Wipe down FS assembly with a mixture of 1 part Hoshizaki "Scale Away" and 25 parts
warm water.
5) While not necessary, the oats can be removed from the shaft during cleaning. If you
remove them, note that the blue oat is on top. The oats must be installed with the
magnets inside them towards the top of the switch. See Fig. 4. Installing the oats
upside down will affect the timing of FS operation.
6) Rinse FS assembly thoroughly with clean water and replace in its correct position.
7) Plug the appliance back into the electrical outlet, conrm the control switch is in the
"ICE" position, then move the power switch to the "ON" position to start the automatic
icemaking process.
8) Replace the front panel in its correct position.
