It is not normal for water to be dripping down in the harvest cycle, and the most common issue with ice machines is keeping them clean, so I would start with using a Scotman approved cleaner and follow the manufacturers recomendations for cleaning.

Hi
Thanks for the reply i'll get to it now next question do you know of a float system that i can be hook up on the ice machine so that i can re use the water that it's dumping so that the harvest cycle goes faster ?

I respectfully disagree with the last answer. Ice machines use hot gas defrost to redirect the hot gas back thru evaporator and this will result in a melting condition that releases the cubes from the plate. You can expect a minimal amount of water to drain back to the pan until plate is clear of ice and freeze cycle restarts. Good luck and have a great day.
