START-UP CHECKLIST
After your model has been installed, leveled, cleaned, and electrically connected in
accordance with this manual, please take the time before start-up to observe the
following precautions to assure troublefree operation:
1. Check that all exposed refrigeration lines are free of severe dents or kinks.
2. Check the condenser fan and evaporator fans for freedom to rotate without any
obstructions
3. Make sure that the cabinet is properly leveled (see "leveling" under installation
and location section).
The system should run smoothly and quietly in accordance with generally accepted
commercial standards. If any unusual noises are heard, turn the unit off
immediately and check for any obstructions of the condenser or evaporator fans.
Fan motors, fan blades, or fan housings can be jarred out of position through rough
handling in transit or during installation.
Important Note: All freezer models have an energy-saving fan delay control to
prevent the interior fans from operating until the evaporator becomes chilled.
Therefore, on initial start-up, the fans will not turn immediately. This is a normal
mode of operation. Allow sufficient time for the evaporator coil to reach its
operating temperature (approximately 20 minutes).
Caution: If unit is unplugged or disconnected for any reason, allow several
minutes (5-6 minutes) before turning the unit back on to allow the system pressures
to equalize. Disregarding this procedure could cause an overload and prevent the
unit from operating.
REMOTE APPLICATIONS
All models are available for purchase as remote models in which case the
condensing unit is purchased separately and installed at the time of installation. All
remote models are equipped with an expansion valve located within the evaporator
coil housing, and both liquid and suction lines stubbed and extending out from the
cabinet case top behind the front grill. Installation of the refrigeration accessories,
condensing unit, and electrical hook-up should be performed by qualified
refrigeration personnel of a competent refrigeration company only.
