If your unit is heated, the serial tag is located above the louvered
panel near the on/off switch.

Refrigerated units have the serial tag located in the compressor
area near the on/off switch.

Understorage units often have the serial tag located on the left
inside the storage area.

All purpose counters, utility equipment or delivery carts do
not require serial numbers but a model tag is placed at the top
of the pylon on the back of the unit.

Always have the serial number of your unit available when
calling for parts or service.

This manual covers standard units only. If you have a custom
unit, consult the customer service department at the number
listed below.

Receiving And Inspecting The Equipment

Even though most equipment is shipped crated, care should
be taken during unloading so the equipment is not damaged
while being moved into the building.

Visually inspect the exterior of the package and skid or

1.
container. Any damage should be noted and reported to
the delivering carrier immediately.

If damaged, open and inspect the contents with the

2.
carrier.

In the event that the exterior is not damaged, yet upon

3.
opening, there is concealed damage to the equipment
notify the carrier. Notification should be made verbally
as well as in written form.

Request an inspection by the shipping company of the

4.
damaged equipment. This should be done within 10
days from receipt of the equipment.

Check the lower portion of the unit to be sure legs or

5.
casters are not bent.

Also open the compressor compartment housing and

6.
visually inspect the refrigeration package. Be sure lines
are secure and base is still intact.

Freight carriers can supply the necessary damage forms

7.
upon request.

Retain all crating material until an inspection has been

8.
made or waived.

Uncrating the Equipment

First cut and remove the banding from around the crate.
Remove the front of the crate material, use of some tools will
be required. If the unit is on legs remove the top of the crate
as well and lift the unit off the skid. If the unit is on casters it
can be "rolled" off the skid.

The units with LiquiTec technology cold pans contain
a non-toxic eutectic fluid within a sealed inner liner.
This fluid may leak if the tank is punctured so care
must be taken when uncrating and setting in place.
The eutectic fluid is non-toxic and may be flushed
down a disposal drain. If the LiquiTec unit cold pans
leak, immediately call the Delfield service department
directly at 1-800-733-8821 not your local service
agent.

Line Up Installation

Identify where the equipment will be installed.

1.

Be sure the location chosen has a floor strong enough to support

•
the total weight and contents. Reinforce the floor as necessary to
provide for maximum loading.
Do not install heated units near combustible objects or surfaces

•
affected by heat or moisture.
For the most efficient refrigeration, be sure to provide good air

•
circulation inside and out.
Inside refrigerated 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 the sides.
Outside refrigerated cabinet: Be sure the unit has access to ample

•
air; avoid hot corners and locations near stoves and ovens. It is
suggested 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.
