LABORATORY REFRIGERATOR
Installation, Operation and
Maintenance Instructions
INSPECTION
When the equipment is received, all items should be carefully checked against the bill of lading to
insure all crates and cartons have been received. All units should be inspected for concealed
damage by uncrating the units immediately. If any damage is found, it should be reported to the
carrier at once, and a claim should be filed with the carrier. This equipment has been inspected and
tested at the manufacturing facility and has been crated in accordance with transportation rules and
guidelines. Manufacturer is not responsible for freight loss or damage.
Before connecting the refrigerator to the power supply, let it stand for approximately two hours to
reduce the possibility of malfunctions in the cooling system due to transport handling
INSTALLATION
GENERAL
After the unit crate and crate base have been removed, use a carpenter’s level to level the
refrigerator from front-to-back. Adjust the plastic leveling feet in front ½ bubble higher to ensure that
the door closes easily when left halfway open.
Note: It is extremely important that the refrigerator be level in order to function properly. If the
refrigerator is not properly leveled during installation, the door may be misaligned and not close or
seal properly causing cooling, frost or moisture problems. See the illustration below.
