Thank yu so much! I had to fix the ice machine at my job and I was just going along with your video and it was a very big help and I accomplished it!!❤🎉

I love that Hoshizaki has the courage to leave the comments on for this video. Obviously opening themselves up for public ridicule but also leaving the door open for people to ask questions...Kudos!

Judging by the service video soundtrack...the IT guy over there didn't know it was an option to turn it off.

Soon I will purchase one of this for start

What about the removable compartments above the evaporater coils? Rea world issues.. also, gotta check the condensor coil/fan.

Just followed all the steps. Then realized I need to get all the nooks and crannies.

How to drain storage bin? It's full of water.

How many days to wash time

I would like to add this youtube video to our training site, is that okay to do?

Sorry for the delay. It depends on the size of the ice machine, so for a KM-320M up to KM901M we recommend 16.0 fl oz of cleaner mixed with 3 gallons of water for cleaning. For sanitizing, use non-scented chlorine bleach (5.25% sodium hypochlorite) at 1.6 fl oz mixed with 3 gallons of water. Email me at techsupport@hoshizaki.com and we can send you the chart for all the Hoshizaki ice machines. Or download the tech manual from the website here: plus.hoshizakiamerica.com/techspecs/pdf/hoshi-80050b-web.pdf

Steven - you are absolutely right! We train service technicians to do a complete ice machine cleaning that includes scrubbing parts, inspections, and exterior cleaning (hoshizakiamerica.com/support/training/). A maintenance schedule from a good technician will keep your HOSHIZAKI trouble free for decades! To find a certified Hoshizaki service rep: hoshizakiamerica.com/locate-service-rep/ This video covers the twice a year preventative maintenance cleaning recommended in the instruction manual. We used a machine in our lobby for the video - so it is NOT a 1-to-1 example as what you would see in the field!

At what point do you plan to sanitize sir??

@HoshizakiAmericaInc

This is just the basic cleaning step, sanitizing is essentially the same steps but with chlorine bleach instead of ScaleAway. Yes, you should always sanitize - see the advanced cleaning & sanitizing instructions here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/nYRrk7CCkc6Tcto.html. Have your ice machine professionally cleaned by a service tech at least once a year for the best results.

thats how to clean a new machine. in the real world, a lot more involved.

how often should you clean the ice maker?

@HoshizakiAmericaInc

4 жыл бұрын

For a cuber machine (like the one in this video) once a year, for cubelet/nugget/flaked icemakers you should clean it twice a year. If you have bad water conditions, use flour or bake near the icemaker - then more frequent cleanings will be required. A cleaning schedule is available in the instruction manual - find yours here: www.hoshizakiamerica.com/manuals

Wish you would of put what cleaner you use

The cleaner is Hoshizaki Scale Away. The video indicates to refer to the instruction manual for the proper ratio of water to cleaner at the 1:20 mark. The manual also identifies the proper cleaner for that machine. You can lookup your model's manual here: www.hoshizakiamerica.com/manuals

@HoshizakiAmericaInc

Once a year preventative maintenance cleaning (what is shown in this video) is the recommended schedule outlined in the manuals for these models. But more frequent and through cleanings maybe required depending on your incoming water conditions (hard water), environment where icemaker is located (dust or flour in air), other equipment it is located next too (please do not place icemaker next to hot equipment), etc. Tip: You could go longer between cleanings if it is performed by a factory trained service tech. They know all the nooks and crannies and should do a through job.

Yeah but that song didn’t need to go that hard

OMG, how many hours have I wasted pulling all of the water side apart and cleaning it by hand with a good cleaner and brushes. Removing the top and scrubbing the evaps with cleaners and brushes. inspecting the check valve for wear. I cleaned everything by hand, THEN used the Hoshi acid cleaner, then the sanitizer. Don't use Hoshi cleaner on different brand machines unless you enjoy replacing the evaporator. Maybe not so bad if the owners used good quality water, the appropriate filters and did this weekly. LOL nahhhh. Hoshi is my favorite ice machine for ice and to work on. I like the spiral bound service books too. If I remember correctly color coded by refrigerant . I saw Hoshis working when they shouldn't have but they were cranking out ice.

I typed in DISHWASHER and I get an ice-maker… NOT EVEN CLOSE!

I call bullshit!

What about scrubbing the grid and all the components...wtf...I do 10000% better than the Factory...wow
