Do I need to shut off ice machine to empty ice basket? Instructions do not say

No you don't. If it produces ice while out, the ice will just go down in the water.

The only advice I can give is to defrost as the ice builds up. Just pull the plug and let it defrost slowly. Do not use anything to remove the ice.

You have to either fill it up, but I think it also has a connection like that of an ice maker for a fridge. We've had problems with the fridge automatic ice maker line always leaking, that is why we bought this and we fill it by hand. Several things to note, if you don't know them already; it does not keep the ice frozen after making it, you have to empty the bin when it is full. It takes awhile to start making the ice, but once it gets going it really puts out. We've had ours about 3 1/2 years and the automatic shutoff for when the water is empty and the ice bin is full has stopped working, but that hasn't been much of a problem, we just keep an eye on it, make a bunch of ice and put it in a large ice bin in our freezer. Hope this has helped. P.S. - When and if our's breaks, we will be buying a new one, it has definitely been worth it.

you would need a bucket or something underneath as it has to have a place to drain. or you would just need to keep your stopper in place and scoop out the water/ice when needed

Glad to help. Also, the machine does not turn off when you shut the lid, I made that mistake a couple times. It will run itself dry and you wont see its on because the lid's is shut. So always remember to flick the switch toward you to off.

I haven't had that issue at all. I always empty the rest of the ice out of the chamber. Sorry I can't be of more help. I also use mine almost every day.

The lid/shredding mechanism has to be removed to empty the basket. Not difficult to remove and replace. Unit has proven to be very reliable.

I usually turn it off during the night but you don't have too. I just do it to unplug electrical items. It words really well. Small but makes lots of ice.

Just plug it in, add water to water line. Select the size of ice you want push the start button. When the ice fills up to a level it will turn it self off. enjoy your ice maker.

This whole unit is an icemaker. There is no freezer portion so yes, the on/off switch turns off the whole unit.

No, the machine needs to be off. Just attach to the pump suction and give it a squirt. It takes very little and the the can is good for several applications.

Mine is still working just fine, with light to medium use throughout the week. When the ice maker starts it makes a soft motor sound, which is caused by its pump, and once the ice tray is filled this noise stops. Sometimes, you can also hear a louder sound, made by a cooling fan. This unit is not the most silent on the planet but mine still works. Hope this helps.

I purchased this iron to use with interfacing and transfers. Frankly I am a bit anal about turning off my things and cannot accurately answer your question. That being said the instructions do not mention an automatic shut off function.

Hi Satesh, Yes this icemaker has an onoff switch and also offers a locking option that would allow you to leave the ice maker on but control the access to the ice maker. Please feel to call us at 888-768-1710 if you have any other questions. Melanie with Goedeker's

It depends, if you empty the bin into baggies or another bin for freezing its around a gallon size bag, if you leave the ice in the bin and don't remove it the ice will build up until the light indicating the ice is full lights up and its probably a little more than a gallon baggie. I myself leave the ice in the bin and use it straight from the machine and what ever ice does not get used melts and is refrozen into more ice, this way I don't have to fill the water constantly.
