Operation
SmartGATE operation
Follett's unique SmartGATE positively controls flow of ice into lower door assembly area for removal with either scoop or
shovel. SmartGATE can also be adjusted and locked at one of several levels to accommodate flow characteristics of
different types of ice.
Bin is shipped with SmartGATE in full down position. SmartGATE can be raised and locked in higher position for better
flow or when more access is needed.
If more ice is needed in lower door area
1. Use full-length handle at top of SmartGATE to gently lift and jiggle
SmartGATE. (Loose ice will cascade into lower door area.)
2. When adequate ice has flowed, push SmartGATE back down.
When more access is needed or to encourage flow of less
"slippery" ice
1. Lock gate at higher level by pulling up and holding SmartGATE
at correct level (catch will automatically release when you pull up),
and pushing tapered end of catch into nearest hole in gate.
2. To release catch, pull up on SmartGATE.
Using ice probe tool accessory
I
ce probe tool is an optional accessory that can be ordered directly
from Follett.
If your bin has been ordered with ice probe tool accessory, mount
probe for easy access on either side of bin in bracket provided.
Using probe
If there is adequate ice in bin but lower door area is not filled with ice, it may be that ice has congealed in bin and cannot
flow. This can often be remedied by quickly jiggling SmartGATE several times (see preceding SmartGATE operation). If
problem continues, probe tool can be inserted through rectangular openings in SmartGATE and agitated back and forth to
break up congealed ice mass.
Caution: Use probe tool only as described above. To avoid possible injury, keep head and face clear of lower door
area and tool at all times. Do not use probe tool for other purposes.
