Installation Guide

INSTALLATION
LOCATION
Units represented in this manual are intended for indoor use only. Be sure the location chosen
has a oor strong enough to support the total weight of the cabinet and contents. A fully loaded
unit can weigh as much as 1500 pounds. Reinforce the oor as necessary to provide for maximum
loading. For the most efcient 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 ow from the top rear to the bottom of
the unit. Obstructions to this air ow can cause evaporator coil freeze ups and loss of temperature
or overow of water from the evaporator drain pan. The shelves have a rear turn up on them to
prevent this. 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 6” from any wall with at least 12” of
clear space above the unit. Should it become necessary to lay the unit on its side or back for any
reason, allow at least 24 hours before start-up so as to allow compressor oil to ow back to the
sump. Failure to meet this requirement can cause compressor failure and unit damage.
LEVELING
A level cabinet looks better and will perform better because the doors will line up with the frames
properly, the cabinet will not be subject to undue strain and the contents of the cabinet will not
move around on the shelves. Use a level to make sure the unit is level from front to back and side
to side. Because the unit is supplied with casters, no adjustments are available. Ensure the oor
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.
Standard warranties will be voided 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.
