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 in the Manufacturing Facility and has been crated in accordance with transportation rules and
guidelines. Manufacturer is not responsible for freight loss or damage.
INSTALLATION
GENERAL
After the unit crate and base have been removed, locate the legs or casters found in the interior of
the cabinet. Attach the legs or casters to the unit base by screwing them into the same threaded
fittings that were used to secure the crate base to the cabinet. Insure that they are screwed all the
way into the base.
If for some reason the doors are not squared up on the cabinet, the doors can be adjusted. Opening
the door(s) and loosening the screws that hold both the top and bottom hinges to the cabinet can
accomplish this. After adjusting the door so that it is aligned correctly, tighten the screws to securely
hold the hinges in place.
LOCATION
The refrigeration system located at the bottom of the cabinet requires free air access for proper
operation. Important: The cabinet may be enclosed on two sides, however, there must be a
minimum four inch clearance from the back of the cabinet to a wall, and from the bottom of the
cabinet to the floor. This model cannot be operated without the legs or casters in place,
and the bottom of the cabinet cannot be enclosed. The cabinet should be level when it is
placed in its permanent location.
ELECTRICAL
Check the proposed outlet to be used to insure that the voltage, phase, and current carrying
capacity of the circuit from the electrical panel correspond to the requirements of the cabinet. Never
use an extension cord. All inter wiring between the electrical panel and the unit must be done in
accordance with the National Electric Code and all state and local codes. See the Serial Tag for all
pertinent electrical information.
