Uncrating and Inspection

Remove all crating material before operating. Carefully inspect cabinet for hidden damage. If damage is discovered, file your claim immediately with the transport company. Perlick is not responsible for damage in transit.

THE ANTI-TIP BRACKETS MUST CATCH EACH OF THE LEVELING LEGS TO HAVE A STABLE AND SAFE INSTALLATION.

Some installation sites might need to be modified to provide a secure surface for attaching the bracket. Refer to the illustration below for anti-tip mounting bracket locations.

Plumbing

No plumbing connections are required. Condensate from the cooling coil is automatically evaporated through a condensate pan located in the condensing unit section.

Electrical

The cabinet must be connected to a separately fused power source (see Electrical Specification Plate) and grounded in accordance with National and Local Electrical Codes.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to operate the equipment on any other power source than that listed on the Electrical Specification Plate.

NOTE: Do not extend leveler leg more than 3/4” out of base. Do not shim or pad to obtain levelness.

Placing the Cabinet

To assure maximum performance, fresh air must be allowed to circulate through the machinery compartment. Do not place anything in front of the cabinet that would obstruct air flow at these grilles. Do not place the unit in an unventilated small room.

Cabinet should be leveled front to back and side to side.

Installing Casters or Legs (optional)

Attach casters or legs to the mounting bracket with the lockwashers and 1⁄4”–20 hex head nuts provided. Attach bracket and leg/caster assembly to the side of the cabinet base using the 1⁄4”–20 hex head self-tapping machine screws provided.

Anti-tip(without Legs or casters)

To prevent the cabinet from tipping forward and to provide a stable installation, the cabinet must be secured in place with an anti-tip device.

A set of metal anti-tip brackets and installation screws (#10-3⁄4” wood screws) are supplied. These brackets should be attached to the floor, at the back of the cabinet; each bracket located to catch each rear leveling leg when the cabinet is pushed backward into position.

Sealing the Cabinet

For sanitation purposes, it may be necessary to seal the base of the cabinet to the floor. This can be accomplished by laying a bead of silicone sealant between the base of the cabinet and the floor as shown by the figure below.

When sealing the cabinet to the floor, make sure that the louvered front grille plate can still be removed for condenser maintenance and cleaning.
