It is recommended that the beer delivery system be installed by your local beer
distributor. Inside the unit (except on model DD24) there is a gas manifold to distribute
gas pressure to the kegs. All gas and beer lines, keg taps and gas pressure regulators
are not included but are supplied by your beer distributor. The installer will need to
route the gas supply line through the cabinet in the back of the compressor
compartment using one of the precut holes and cutting out the foam insulation. All units
except the DD24 will require a remote pressurized gas supply. The mobile model DD24
can accept a CO2 tank up to 5 pounds inside the cabinet and has a spring to hold the
tank in place.
The beer towers come complete with all required mounting hardware. Set the black
rubber gasket supplied with the tower in place on top of the cabinet aligning with the
four mounting holes. Set the tower in place on the cabinet top by aligning the four
mounting holes and secure the tower with the four screws provided. Inside the unit you
will find one inch plastic air hose(s) with a wire hook on the end. Remove the top cap of
the tower. Install the air hose up through the bottom of the tower and attach the wire
hook to the top of the insulating foam sleeve at the top of the tower. Replace the top
cap of the tower. This air hose supplies cool air to the tower to assure the beer remains
cold in the tower. Install the spigot tap on the tower. Do this for each tower.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
This cooler is designed to maintain your product temperature within the most desirable
range of +33°F to +38°F. You can expect this temperature with the proper temperature
control setting and in a normal environment. It is important to remember that when the
product is delivered, it must be placed inside the cooler as soon as possible to avoid
excessive warm up. If this happens, it may take many hours for the temperature to be
reduced to the desirable range.
The temperature controller is located on the inside left wall of the unit. Turn the control
clockwise for cooler temperatures and counterclockwise for warmer temperatures.
Allow the unit several hours to respond to temperature control adjustments.
There are interior lights located above each door (expect for model DD24). The lights
have on/off switches on each light.
This equipment is intended for the storage and display of non-potentially hazardous
bottled or can product only.
Cleaning
Beginning with the initial installation, the interior surfaces of the cabinet should be
periodically cleaned with a solution of warm water and baking soda. This solution will
remove any odors from spillage that has occurred. The exterior of the cabinet should
also be cleaned frequently with a commercial stainless steel cleaner, glass cleaner or
mild soap solution. Do not use chlorinated cleaners on any surfaces.
Contact your local beer distributor for information on cleaning the beer lines.
