REFRIGERATORS AND FREEZERS
Installation, Operation and
Maintenance Instructions
INSPECTION
When the equipment is received, all items should be carefully checked against the bill of lading
to insure all crates and cartons have been received. All units should be inspected for
concealed damage by uncrating the units immediately. If any damage is found, it should be
reported to the carrier at once, and a claim should be filed with the carrier. This equipment has
been inspected and tested in the manufacturing facility and has been crated in accordance
with transportation rules and guidelines. Manufacturer is not responsible for freight loss or
damage.
INSTALLATION
GENERAL
After the unit crate and crate base have been removed, locate the casters or legs found inside
the cabinet. (Not applicable for Roll-In models). Attach the casters or legs to the unit base by
screwing them into the same threaded fittings that were used to secure the crate base to the
cabinet. Insure that the legs or casters are screwed completely into the base. The cabinet
should also be levelled when it is placed in its permanent location.
For shipping purposes, the condensing unit compressor is secured on the extra low
temperature
models. Remove the spring clips and loosen the mounting bolts prior to
operation.
See the label attached to the condensing unit.
If the doors are out of alignment on the cabinet, the doors can be adjusted. This can be
accomplished by opening the door(s) and loosening the screws that hold both the top and
bottom hinges to the cabinet. After adjusting the door so that it is aligned correctly, tighten the
screws to securely hold the hinges in place.
VAPORIZER INSTALLATION
Some of the Refrigerators and all of the Extra Low Temperature Freezers require the
installation of the condensate vaporizer which is shipped inside the unit compartment. The
vaporizer should be mounted to the cabinet bottom. Reference View 1. In lieu of the vaporizer,
these units can be plumbed to a floor drain following local plumbing codes. The Freezers,
Pass-Thru and Roll-In Refrigerators use a hot gas vaporizer. Customer installation is not
required.
