       SCOTSMAN INDUSTRIES AND KYSOR INDUSTRIAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCE   
                          COMPLETION OF TENDER OFFER


     Vernon Hills, Illinois, March 10, 1997 -- Scotsman Industries, Inc.
(NYSE:SCT) and Kysor Industrial Corporation (NYSE:KZ) announced today that a
subsidiary of Scotsman has accepted shares tendered pursuant to a tender offer
for all outstanding shares of common stock and preferred stock of Kysor at a
purchase price of $43 per share.

     Scotsman was advised over the weekend by First Chicago Trust Company of New
York, the depositary for the offer, that as of the expiration of the offer at
12:00 midnight (EST), on Friday, March 7, approximately 5.6 million shares of
Kysor common stock and .76 million shares of preferred stock were validly
tendered, which represent in the aggregate, approximately 94% of the outstanding
shares of Kysor. All conditions to the closing of the purchase of the shares
tendered pursuant to the offer have been satisfied or waived, including
conditions related to the sale of substantially all of the assets of Kysor's
Transportation Products Group to a subsidiary of Kuhlman Corporation, which sale
is expected to close today.

     The tendered shares were accepted for payment by a Scotsman subsidiary as
of the expiration of the offer. It is expected that such Scotsman subsidiary
will be merged with and into Kysor with each share of Kysor not purchased in the
tender offer being converted into the right to receive $43 in cash. The merger
is expected to be completed on or about March 12, 1997. Scotsman and Kysor
signed a definitive agreement on February 2, whereby a subsidiary of Scotsman
would acquire all the outstanding shares of Kysor for a cash price of $43 per
share.

     Scotsman Industries, Inc. is a leading international manufacturer of
refrigeration products -- ice machines, beverage dispensing systems, food
preparation and storage equipment and related products. Scotsman markets

health care industries. Scotsman's products are sold in more than 100 countries
through multiple distribution channels.
