Maintenance Tips
-
Clean the Interior Regularly:
Clean and sanitize the interior at least three times a year, or whenever the bin is emptied for extended periods. Always clean before first use or after downtime. Use a mild cleaning solution of water and bleach, then rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
-
Exterior Maintenance:
Wipe down the exterior of the bin with a non-abrasive cleaner to maintain the stainless steel finish and prevent any buildup of dirt or grease.
-
Check Drainage:
Regularly inspect the drain line for clogs or obstructions. Ensure the line is clear and draining properly to avoid water buildup and potential overflow.
-
Level the Bin:
Ensure the bin is level by adjusting the leveling legs. This helps with proper drainage and prevents the ice from shifting or accumulating unevenly.
-
Inspect Gaskets & Brackets:
Check the gasket seal and mounting brackets for wear and damage. Replace any faulty parts to maintain a proper seal and prevent contamination.
-
Store Ice Scoop Properly:
Always store the ice scoop in its designated holder above the ice level to avoid contamination. Never leave it inside the ice bin.
-
Avoid Overloading:
Do not store anything other than ice in the bin. This keeps the bin in optimal condition and maintains hygiene.
