INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
It is highly recommended that your
refrigerator or freezer be installed by an
authorized Victory Certified Installer.
A. Receiving Shipment
Upon arrival, examine the exterior of the shipment
packaging for any signs of rough handling.
If the cabinet is damaged, it should be noted on the
delivery slip or bill of lading and signed to that effect. A
claim must be filed immediately against the carrier
indicating extent and estimated cost of damage incurred.
All units are performance tested and thoroughly
inspected, prior to shipment. Upon leaving the factory, all
units are in perfect condition and the carrier signs to this
effect.
B. Unpackaging Procedure
1. Split plastic wrap along one of the cardboard posts.
Remove and discard all packaging material.
2.
WARNING
Never, under any circumstances, lay your
new refrigerator or freezer down on either
it’s back, front or sides.
Laying the equipment down will allow
compressor oil into the refrigerant lines which
can damage the compressor at start-up. If for
any reason the unit is laid down, it must be set
upright as soon as possible and needs to set for
a minimum of 12 hours before starting the
compressor. Failure to adhere to the above
recommendations will void the warranty.
3. The shipping skid must be removed by tipping the
cabinet from side to side. Remove the shipping
bolts while the cabinet is held in one direction.
Then repeating this procedure when the cabinet is
held in the opposite direction.
4. Exercise extreme caution when removing the
wooden skid especially when the last bolt is
removed, as the skid, if not properly blocked, will fall
to the floor with extreme force.
C. Reducing Refrigerator or Freezer Depth For
Narrow Facility Doorway
In order to pass through a narrow doorway or restricted
area, doors, front grill, hinges, and keeper may be removed
to reduce the overall depth of the cabinet to a minimum
or 31” deep.
1. Removing Doors
a. Open door to approximately 90 ° .
b. Lift door straight up and off hinges.
2. Front Air Grill
a. On grills with dial thermometers, disconnect the
bracket assembly (thumbscrew) before completely
removing the air grill.
b. Remove 1/4” hex head screw from each case
end panel.
c. Remove the front air grill by lifting the grill
vertically. Push up at the bottom of the grill to
disengage the lances from the keyhole slots and
