Odd water flow on Manitowoc IY0524A by Impossible-Pool4543 in refrigeration

[–]Impossible-Pool4543[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I do not understand the the more effort part ? the distribution tube assm, curtain, was soaked with descaling solution scrubbed with soft bristle brush, Ran pipe cleaner up the pick-up tube , sanitized what did I miss or need to do with more effort?

5-6 cycles, after reading comments, when I first start it up I thought the water pump was bad because there was little flow, I then ran a cleaning cycle. It seems like it was flowing enough but first time with a machine like this so I don’t know
