Maintenance, continued
If your freezer seems to vibrate excessively
when the compressor is running, loosen (but do
not remove) the bolts on the compressor. Semi
hermetic models should be loosened before
operating.
Gasket Maintenance
Gaskets require regular cleaning to prevent mold and mildew
build up and also to keep the elasticity of the gasket. Gasket
cleaning can be done with the use of warm soapy water. Avoid
full strength cleaning products on gaskets as this can cause
them to become brittle and prevent proper seals. Also, never
use sharp tools or knives to scrape or clean the gasket which
could possibly tear the gasket and rip the bellows.
Gaskets can easily be replaced and do not require the use of
tools or authorized service persons. The gaskets are “Dart”
style and can be pulled out of the grove in the door and new
gaskets can be “pressed” back into place.
Doors/Hinges
Over time and with heavy use doors the hinges may become
loose. If it is noticed that the door is beginning to sag, it may
become necessary to tighten the screws that mount the hinge
brackets to the frame of the unit. If the doors are loose or
sagging this can cause the hinge to pull out of the frame which
may damage both the doors and the door hinges. In some
cases this can require qualified service agents or maintenance
personnel.
Drain Maintenance
Each unit has a drain located inside the unit which removes the
condensation from the evaporator coil and evaporates it at an
external condensate evaporator pan. Each drain can become
loose or disconnected from moving or bumping the drain. If you
notice excessive water accumulation on the inside of the unit be
sure the drain tube is connected from the evaporator housing
to the condensate evaporator drain pan. If water is collected
underneath the unit you may want to check the condensate
evaporator drain tube to be sure it is still located inside the
drain pan. The leveling of the unit is important as the units are
designed to drain properly when on a level surface, if your floor
is not level this can also cause drain problems. Be sure all drain
lines are free of obstructions, typically food product is found
blocking drain lines causing water to back up and overflow the
drain pans.
