Install the beater assembly. First check the scraper
blades for any nicks or signs of wear. If any nicks are
present or if the blade is worn, replace both blades. If
the blades are in good condition, place the scraper
blades over the holding pins on the beater.
Note: Each hole on the scraper blade must fit
securely over each pin.
Figure 13
Align the flats on the end of the beater assembly with
the drive shaft. Make sure the beater assembly
locating pin is in position in the locating hole of the drive
shaft. Turn the beater slightly to be certain that the
beater is properly seated. When in position, the beater
will be approximately 3/8” inside the front of the
freezing cylinder.
Important: Failure to properly seat the beater may
cause damage to the beater and the door.
