All AM models have similar sequence of operation. This manual is designed as a generic AM Training manual. The Hoshizaki AM series ice machine uses a horizontal evaporator design which forms a unique cube shape. 20mm 25mm The compact AM-50BAE unit is 14 7/8”w x 22 5/8”d x 33 1/2”h and is designed for counter-top, under-counter, or freestanding installations with up to 51 pounds of production

In the case of an AM-50 if a drain is not located in an area that will allow for the proper fall, there is an optional condensate pump available that can be installed directly into the unit. After removing the louvered rear panel the pump location is defined by the two metal tabs. This pump has a built in safety that will shut the AM-50 down in the event of a pump problem. This pump is available as an accessory through your local distributor. Simply follow the instructions

The horizontal evaporator and water distribution system are unique to the (AM-50) Hoshizaki AM and IM series. The AM and the IM series are similar in the fact that they both make ice on a horizontal evaporator. The AM evaporator design however is different, as shown in the center picture. The moving IM water plate and associated parts are eliminated with this simple design. The AM-50BAE produces 24 cubes and .60 pounds per cycle. The AM-

The AM series uses a combination thermistor and control board to control the THERMISTOR sequence of operation. When the toggle switch is placed in the “ON” position and the bin control calls for ice, the unit will begin in the initial harvest cycle. Starting Thermistor the unit in harvest allows the compressor to start in an unloaded condition, greatly extending the life of the compressor. This operation is common among all Hoshizaki cube icemakers. During the initial

Throughout the freeze cycle, which normally last 14~33 minutes, depending on model and operating conditions, the unit will continue to circulate the water from the reservoir to the horizontal evaporator, through the spray tubes. When the temperature of the evaporator has reached approximately 26.6°F (-3°C) and the thermistor signals approximately 6.8KΩ the freeze completion timer will start and count down 8 minutes. The control board will then switch to normal

The AM series uses a thermostatic bin control located on the right rear side of the ice storage compartment. This control will open when ice touches the sensing bulb and the unit will shut down This control includes a small heater to eliminate the control opening due to low ambient temperatures in the bin. Access the control by removing the wiring channel from the rear of the unit. The thermostatic bin control is factory set and should shut down the unit within 10 sec

AM-50BAE: The control switch is marked “ICE- OFF-WASH” and is located on the lower right front of the unit. AM-100 & AM-150: The control switch is located on the control box which is located behind the front panel on the left hand side of the unit. If it is necessary to gain access to the control (AM-50BAE) box, the louvered panel must be removed. AM-50BAE: This can be done by removing the two screws from the lower portion of the front panel and

CONTROL BOARD: A solid state board controls the AM operation. The control board is factory adjusted to produce consistent ice in all ambient conditions. “NO SEASONAL ADJUSTMENTS ARE REQUIRED” There are no adjustments needed, however there are two variable resistors on the control board. The first resistor VR1 is used to fine tune the harvest termination temperature adjustment when the control board is manufactured. The adjustment is sealed with red paint and shou

Preventative maintenance for the AM is simple. Follow these steps to allow the unit to operate efficiently. 1. Clean the condenser once a year using a brush or vacuum. 2. Check and clean the inlet water valve screen as needed to assure proper water flow. *Remember that the original fitting is a 3/4” BSP and the use of a standard MPT fitting will damage the threads. In May of 2003, this fitting was changed to 3/8” male flare. After August and September of 2003, this fit

Cleaning tips: • A detailed cleaning label is located on the back of the icemaker door of the AM- 50BAE or on the back of the bin baffle of the AM-100 & AM-150. More detailed instructions are included in the customers Instruction Manual or in the product Service Manual. This manuals can be viewed at www.hoshizaki.com • Always follow the cleaning instructions and use the recommended ice machine cleaner. The following instructions provide information on the disassembly
