Manitowoc K00146 Stainless Steel Convenient Ice Bagger for Ice Storage Bins, Removable Chute, 250 Bags and Twist Ties Included

The Manitowoc K00146 Convenient Ice Bagger turns a Manitowoc ice storage bin into an on-premise bagging station, built for grocery stores, convenience stores, marinas, and campgrounds that want to keep bagged-ice profit in house instead of buying packaged ice in. The stainless steel bagger slips over the frame of the bin door opening, and its large chute moves high volumes of ice into 11 in. x 18.5 in. bags holding up to 8 lb each while minimizing spillage, so one employee can fill a merchandiser's worth of bags in a single session. It arrives ready to work with 250 bags and 250 twist ties, and the K-00068 replacement kit keeps four wickets of 250 bags and 1,000 ties on hand. This is a manual bagging accessory for Manitowoc bins rather than an automated bagging and dispensing machine, so it suits retailers bagging by the batch, and it needs an ice machine and storage bin ahead of it to do its job. Installation is a slip fit over the bin door frame with no tools, though attachment to a D-400 bin requires the K-00144 12.00 in. adjustable bin legs for clearance.

Stainless Steel Bagger That Slips Over the Bin Door Frame

The bagger body is durable stainless steel that withstands frequent use and resists corrosion, a real consideration for a tool that lives its life covered in meltwater. It installs by slipping quickly over the frame of the bin door opening, so there is nothing to bolt on and nothing permanent about the setup; hang it when it is time to bag and store it when it is not.

Large Removable Chute for High-Volume Bagging With Less Spillage

The oversized chute handles high volumes of ice quickly while keeping cubes headed into the bag instead of onto the floor, which is the difference between a profitable bagging session and a mopping session. When bagging is done, the chute lifts out for easy cleaning at the sink.

Multi-Position Bracket for Left- or Right-Handed Users

A multi-position bracket lets you place the bagger where the work is most convenient, with left and right positions that accommodate right-handed and left-handed users alike. The bagger can also stand on its own rubber bumpers, which protect the floor from scratching, and at 10.25 in. wide by 13.00 in. deep by 28.75 in. high it occupies minimal floor space and stores easily between sessions.

250 Bags and Twist Ties Included, 8 lb Maximum Fill

The assembly includes the bagger, 250 ice bags, and 250 twist ties, and each 11 in. x 18.5 in. bag fills to a maximum of 8 lb, the standard merchandiser size customers expect. The twist-tie closure is quick and seals each bag tight, and when the starter supply runs out, the K-00068 replacement bag kit delivers four wickets of 250 bags and 1,000 twist ties.
