Installation Guide

Location:
Units 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 con-
tents. A fully loaded unit can weigh as much as 1500 pounds. Reinforce the floor as
necessary to provide for maximum loading. For the most efficient refrigeration, be sure
to provide good air circulation inside and out.
Inside cabinet:
Do not pack the units so full that air cannot circulate. The refrigerated air is discharged
at the top rear of the unit. It is important to allow for proper air flow from the top rear to
the bottom of the unit. Obstructions to this air flow can cause evaporator coil freeze
ups and loss of temperature or overflow of water from the evaporator drain pan. The
shelves have a rear turn up on them to prevent this, however bags and other items can
still obstruct air flow in the far rear of the cabinet. Air is brought into the evaporator coil
with fans. Prevent obstruction by locating large boxes and tall stacks of product away
from the outlet or inlet of air flow.
Outside cabinet:
Be sure that the unit has access to ample air. Avoid hot corners and locations near
stoves and ovens. It is recommended that the unit be installed no closer than 6" from
any wall.
Leveling:
A
level cabinet looks better and will perform better because the doors will line up with
the frames properly, the cabinet will not be subject to undue strain and the contents
of the cabinet will not move around on the shelves. Use a level to make sure the unit is
level from front to back and side to side. Units supplied with legs will have adjustable
bullet feet to make the necessary adjustments. If the unit is supplied with casters, no
adjustments are available. Ensure the floor where the unit is to be located is level.
Stabilizing:
All models are supplied with casters for your convenience, ease of cleaning under-
neath and for mobility. It is very important, however, that the cabinet be installed in a
stable condition with the front wheels locked while in use. Should it become necessary
to lay the unit on its side or back for any reason, allow at least 24 hours before start-up
so as to allow compressor oil to flow back to the sump. Failure to meet this requirement
can cause compressor failure and unit damage.
