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.
