WING NUT

Wing Nut is a replacement component listed as part 03-0255-00 for ice machines. Hardware wear is often visible: elongated holes, stripped threads, or parts that won’t stay tight. A short post-repair check—visual inspection plus a full cycle—helps confirm the issue is resolved without introducing new leaks or noise. A correct-fit replacement helps restore predictable operation and reduces repeat service calls. Replace this part when you see loose parts, visible damage, cracks, corrosion, stripped fasteners, or a component that won’t stay seated. After replacement, run at least one full cycle and recheck for leaks, vibration noise, and anything that loosens during operation. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. Take a photo before disassembly so you can confirm orientation and fastener locations during reassembly. Clean the area around the repair so debris doesn’t interfere with fitment or sealing surfaces. Take a photo before disassembly so you can confirm orientation and fastener locations during reassembly. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. Take a photo before disassembly so you can confirm orientation and fastener locations during reassembly. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. Recheck fasteners after a short run-in period; vibration can loosen hardware if it isn’t seated correctly. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period.
