Excellent, thanks for making this video. This is our exact machine. About twice a year, it gets black particles in the ice. Now I know what to do for sure. Here I go, doing it right now.

You’re welcome. I glad you found it helpful. Hope all goes smoothly with your cleaning.

As a maintenance tech. in hospital, we just replaced all of our Ice machines with the Scotsman and all the nurses stations throughout the building. I had prayed and hoped that I could find something on KZread on how to clean these ice machines thoroughly. The last ice machines we had were not self cleaning. they were all manual labor. I noticed on the Scotsman on this control panel that it said cleaning mode or time to clean. Your video was very easy to understand that by step. Thank you for your time, energy and effort and making this video it helped tremendously.

I absolutely love that kind of ice. But I would absolutely not like to have that machine in the way all that has to come apart to clean. I’ll keep my old is Scotsman prodigy

Oh ya! The prodigy is a solid machine. The HID machines seem complicated but they’re pretty easy to work on after a while.

You missed the exploded top bearing that all these new model HID's have! Lol. We had an Amazon facility that had 8 of these machines and we ended up rebuilding 5 under warranty.

Oh ya those top bearings are known to fail. Rebuilt a couple myself. 5 out of 8 is pretty bad… glad the manufacturer covered the cost though.

How often should these ice machines be cleaned on a PM schedule?

Manufacture recommends every six months. More often if needed.

Hi, I wonder how much does that cleaning/maintenance service cost?

@IceMachine411

$200 give or take.

Curious to how you charge $… by the hour? Per machine? Type of machine?

Thanks for letting me know. I’ve been trying to figure out how to make these darn thumbnails. I know they’ve gotten better but I’m still learning. It’s harder than I thought it would be.

How long does it take you to usually do one of these units? Also what’s you thought on this Scotsman machine vrs a manitowoc in same style ice?

Start to finish maybe 1 to 2 hours. In general I really like Manitowoc but I don’t like their nugget machines. Manitowoc CNF machines are second class compared to Scotsman HID machines.
