INSTALLATION
Location
Cabinets 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. Reinforce the floor as necessary to provide 
for maximum loading. 
The location should be selected so that power cords can 
be connected without any extensions.
For the most efficient operation, be sure to provide good 
air circulation inside and outside the cabinet. Avoid hot 
corners and locations near stoves and ovens.
Inside Cabinet
Do not pack refrigerator so full that air cannot 
circulate.
Outside Cabinet
4400 Series equipment door and drawer models
These cabinets have Delfield’s “front-breathing” design. 
They may be installed flush against a wall or built into a 
counter as required.
The louver at the floor level must be kept completely clear 
of any obstructions. Proper operation of these models 
is dependent on air being able to flow freely through the 
front louver. The louver at the back of the cabinet is not 
necessary for proper operation, but any air flow through 
it is beneficial.
CAUTION
Any restriction of the proper air flow outlined above, total 
or partial, will void the warranty on the cabinet.
Leveling
A level cabinet will perform better because the drain 
pan will drain properly, the drawers or doors will line up 
with the frames and the cabinet will not be subject to 
undue strain.
CAUTION
Never stand on the unit or its drawers! Doing so may 
result in bodily injury. They are not designed to hold the 
weight of a person and will collapse if misused in this 
manner. 
Stabilizing
All models are supplied standard on casters for your 
convenience, for ease of cleaning underneath and for 
mobility.
CAUTION
The cabinet must be installed in a stable condition with 
the front wheels locked. Locking the front casters after 
installation is the owner’s and operator’s responsibility.
Plumbing
Self-contained models are standard with a condensate 
evaporator. If, for some reason, a cabinet does not have 
a condensate evaporator, or the evaporator fails, the 
cabinets drain must have an outlet to an appropriate 
drainage area or container.
CAUTION
Moisture collecting from improper drainage can create a 
slippery surface on the floor and a hazard to employees. 
It is the owner’s and operator’s responsibility to provide 
a container or outlet for drainage. 
Electrical Connection
CAUTION
A 7’ (2.1 m) long grounded supply cord and three-
pronged plug are provided with standard cabinets. Simply 
plug into a three-pronged wall outlet for proper grounding 
of the cabinet to begin operation. Do not use an adapter 
to connect to a two-pronged outlet. The three-pronged 
outlet provides a ground connection which must be used 
to prevent a shock hazard.
CAUTION
The wall outlet must be checked by a qualified electrician 
to be sure a proper ground is present and that the outlet 
provides the correct voltage and required amperage to 
match the rating plate.
Any power cord that is frayed or damaged should be 
replaced. When disconnecting the cabinet from the power 
source, do not pull on the cord. Firmly grip the plug and 
remove from outlet.
