Adler ice maker is making loud grinding or rattling noises during operation.

Safety first: Unplug the unit before touching moving parts.

• Identify noise source: Remove the front or rear panel and briefly power the unit to localize the noise (keep hands clear).
• Check fan assembly: Inspect the Adler condenser fan blade for cracks or looseness on the motor shaft. Tighten or replace as needed.
• Inspect pump: If noise coincides with water circulation, the Adler circulation pump may have worn bearings and should be replaced.
• Secure components: Tighten loose screws on panels and use foam or clips to prevent refrigerant lines from rattling against the cabinet.
