When the unit freezes up it is low on freon. Cycling the unit shouldn't hurt it if it is just a little low. Don't know what might happen if the system has a big leak (from a new hole in the condenser), but you probably won't get much cooling in the house if you have a big hole and all the freon is gone. Of course a big enough leak means no cooling and no freezing either. I am currently cycling my dehumidifier in the garage because it is freezing up - low on freon too.
