SCREW

Brackets, gussets, clamps, and fasteners keep assemblies aligned under vibration. Loose mounting leads to noise and repeat failures. Symptoms can present as fasteners not holding, intermittent operation, abnormal noise, or a cycle that won’t complete normally—depending on where this part sits in the system. After replacement, run at least one full cycle and recheck for leaks, vibration noise, and anything that loosens during operation. Screw is a replacement component listed as part 03-1404-14 for ice machines. 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. Recheck fasteners after a short run-in period; vibration can loosen hardware if it isn’t seated correctly. 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. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period.
