HEX NUTS

Hex Nuts (PN 03-1406-08) supports ice machine service when wear, damage, or fitment issues are disrupting normal operation. Brackets, gussets, clamps, and fasteners keep assemblies aligned under vibration. Loose mounting leads to noise and repeat failures. Use part number 03-1406-08 as the primary identifier, compare the replacement to the original, and install with careful alignment and routing. Once the root cause is corrected, performance should stabilize and output should return to normal. 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. If the fault changes with vibration or after moving panels, look for borderline fitment, loose connectors, or wear marks around the installation area. 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.

Clean the area around the repair so debris doesn’t interfere with fitment or sealing surfaces. 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.
