If it's being used to water the grass just make ice everyother day

Correction. It is a water cooled machine. Very unlikely meets codes.

Thanks again. I am looking for a service company now.

The “W” signifies Water Cooled and needs to be hooked up to a seperate water source to cool the refrigerant

You need to place a service call to an authorized manitowoc service company

Yes I think a service call might be in order. Gonna check the dump valve first as the first reply suggests. Freeze cycles not bad but water out the drain is about 1.5 gallons per minute. I unplugged the ice maker.

Not familiar with the indigo series but sounds like dump valve stuck

Manitowoc water flow?

I have been given a Manitowoc Model ID303W. Cleaned it up hooked up water starting to make ice. Water is pouring out of the bottom drain pipe while it makes ice. Really pouring, like gallons... Is it supposed to do that?
Probably not. This is at my company so I don't see the water bill but the rate it is coming out I would bet the bill is high. Is this supposed to recirculate the water that runs across the ice cube grill?
