For John Guest Fitting Installation:
NOTE: Please review the following recommendations before
installing the water lines.
• Tubing must be 3/8" O.D., (.371 - .376).
• Cut the tube square. The outside diameter must be free
of score marks.
• Burrs and sharp edges must be removed prior to
installation.
NOTE: Use a tube insert for thin-walled plastic tubing.
To install water lines into the inlet/outlet ports:
1. Insert water line tubing into the inlet port fitting.
Notice
The fitting will grip before it seals. Tubing must be pushed
into the tube stop to prevent leaks.
2. Pull on the tubing to be sure it is secure. If the tubing
releases, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this
manual to reinstall.
3. Repeat for the outlet port fitting. Connect outlet water
line to the potable water connection on the ice machine.
NOTE: For water-cooled machines, be sure that the filter
system only feeds the potable water connection.
Installation - AR-Pre
NOTE: If the AR-Pre is being retrofitted to an existing
ArcticPure® system, shut off the incoming water supply,
relieve the filter pressure by removing the existing filter
cartridge(s), and disengage the water inlet line. A small
quantity of water will be vented directly behind the cartridge
body.
