immediately for further instructions.

Setting Up Your Freeze Dryer

After you verify receipt of the proper components, move your Freeze Dryer to the
location where you want to install it. Then, follow the steps listed below.

Component Orientation


The refrigeration system in the Freeze Dryer draws air in through one side of the
cabinet and exhausts air out through the other side. A minimum of 3" should be
allowed between the sides of the Freeze Dryer and the adjacent wall surface.
Restriction of the airflow through the cabinet during operation could adversely
affect performance.

After the console model is positioned at the location where it will be operated, it
should be securely attached to the floor. Use (2) 1/4" x 5.0 long wood screws or
lag bolts if the floor is wood or concrete anchors if the floor is concrete. Two .312
diameter holes are located in the floor of the lower cabinet. Using these holes as a
template, mark the floor directly under the two holes. Roll the console Freeze
Dryer aside and drill suitable pilot holes for the selected screws/anchors. Install the
vacuum pump prior to securing the console Freeze Dryer to the floor. Roll the
console Freeze Dryer back into position and install the screws/anchors through the
holes in the cabinet floor and into the building floor.

FAILURE TO ATTACH THE CONSOLE FREEZE DRYER TO
THE FLOOR COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL TIPPING
AND POSSIBLE INJURY
