INSTALLATION

Location

Units represented in this manual are intended for indoor use only. Be sure the location chosen has a floor strong enough to support the total weight of the cabinet and contents. A fully loaded unit can weigh as much as 4,000 pounds. Reinforce the floor as necessary to provide for maximum loading. For the most efficient refrigeration, be sure to provide good air circulation inside and out.

Inside cabinet: Do not pack refrigerator so full that air cannot circulate. The refrigerated air is discharged at the top rear of the unit. It is important to allow for proper air flow from the top rear to the bottom of the unit. Obstructions

to this air flow can cause evaporator coil freeze ups, loss of temperature or overflow of water from the evaporator drain pan. However, bags and other items can still be located to the far rear of the cabinet. Air is

brought into the evaporator coil with fans mounted to the front of the coil. Prevent obstruction by locating large boxes and tall stacks of product to the bottom of the cabinet.

Outside cabinet: Be sure that the unit has access to ample air. Avoid hot corners and locations near stoves and ovens. It is recommended that the unit be installed no closer than 2” from any wall.

Leveling

A level cabinet will not be subject to undue stress and perform better when the doors line up with the frames properly. Use a level to make sure the unit is level from front to back and side to side. When the unit is supplied with casters, no adjustments are available, but if unit comes with legs, they have adjustable bullet feet. Ensure the floor where the unit is to be located is level.

Stabilizing

Models are supplied on casters for your convenience, ease of cleaning underneath and for mobility. It is very important, however, that the cabinet be installed in a stable condition with the front wheels locked while in use.

Unit repairs will not be subject to standard unit warranties due to improper installation procedures.

Electrical connection

Refer to the amperage data on page 3, the serial tag, your local code or the National Electrical Code to be sure the unit is connected to the proper power source. A protected circuit of the correct voltage and amperage must be run for connection of the line cord, or permanent connection to the unit.

The on/off switch must be turned to OFF and the unit disconnected from the power source whenever performing service, maintenance functions or cleaning the refrigerated area.
