Location
These units 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. Units in this product line can weigh as 
much as 1500 pounds when it is fully stocked.  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 unit so full that air cannot circulate. 
Take care not to block air flow to the fans and allow space along 
sides.
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 rear of the unit be no less than two 
inches from any wall, partition or any other object which will 
restrict exhaust air flow.
Leveling
A level cabinet looks better and will perform better because 
the cabinet will not be subject to unnecessary strain due to 
doors not properly lining up with door frames.
Some models have casters for ease of cleaning underneath and 
for mobility. It is important that the unit be installed in a stable 
condition with the front casters locked before operating. Locking 
the front casters after installation is the operator’s responsibility.
Electrical connection
A standard self-contained unit is provided with a power cord 
and three-prong grounded plug.
The  unit  should  be  plugged  into  a  receptacle  with  its  own 
circuit protection that matches the amperage of the plug.
Refer to the amperage data on page three or the 
serial tag data and your local code or the National 
Electrical  Code  to  be  sure  the  unit  is  connected 
to the proper power source. A protected circuit of 
the correct voltage and amperage must be run for 
connection to the unit.
The  power  supply  must  be  disconnected 
whenever performing  maintenance or  repairing 
the equipment!
The unit must never be operated without the 
louvered panel in place.
Built-in units
All self-contained units (MFSC, FFSC and RFFSC) are tested at 
the factory to assure proper operation. The unit should not be 
installed directly next to high heat generating equipment (ranges, 
griddles, etc.).
These units are built into the counter from below and must be 
supported from the bottom. The counter cut-out sizes and power 
supply  requirements  are  shown  in  the  specifications  on  page 
three. All refrigerators have drains located in the bottom of the 
tank.  An appropriate drainage area or container must be provided 
by the customer. Be sure to place the unit so the pressure control, 
located near the compressor, can be reached.
For installation of  remote  units (MF, FF and  RFF), consult  a 
refrigeration service company to connect refrigeration lines to the 
remote condensing unit.
Self-contained refrigerated units (MFSC, FFSC and 
RFFSC) require air flow to the compressor. A louver 
is provided and must be installed in the counter in 
front of the condenser. An equal size opening at the 
rear of the cabinet must also be provided to allow 
warm air to escape. Failure to do so will void all 
product warranties.
Free standing units
All self-contained units (N, N6/10/14, NDF, NLFAC, SCF and 
NSCF) are tested at the factory to assure proper operation. The 
unit should not be installed directly next to high heat generating 
equipment (ranges, griddles, etc.).
These  units  are  free  standing,  either  on  legs  or  casters.  The 
power supply requirements are shown on page three. All free 
standing units  have drains located in the bottom of the tank.  
An appropriate drainage area or container must be provided by 
the customer.
Do not place the unit against a wall or any object that will block 
air circulation through  the  condensing  unit.  If the  unit  must 
be placed against a wall, leave a minimum of 2” of space for 
air flow.
