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.

1. Visually inspect the exterior of the package and skid or
container. Any damage should be noted and reported to
the delivering carrier immediately.

2. If damaged, open and inspect the contents with the carrier.

3. In the event that the exterior is not damaged, yet upon
opening, there is concealed damage to the equipment
notify the carrier. Notification should be made verbally as
well as in written form.

4. Request an inspection by the shipping company of the
damaged equipment. This should be done within 10 days
from receipt of the equipment.

5. Check the lower portion of the unit to be sure legs or
casters are not bent.

6. Also open the compressor compartment housing and
visually inspect the refrigeration package. Be sure lines
are secure and base is still intact.

7. Freight carriers can supply the necessary damage forms
upon request.

8. Retain all crating material until an inspection has been
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.

Serial Number Information

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.

Tools And Supplies Required

The following tools are either required or will make the installation
easier:

1) A scissor jack to lift and hold heavy units off the floor so that legs can be
adjusted, allowing the proper leveling of the units.

2) A level is needed to assist in the leveling of each unit from front to back and
left to right. A 2’ (61cm) level is a must; a 4’ (122cm) level is also desirable.

3) Two 6’ (183cm) pipe clamps are useful in pulling equipment tightly together
while fasteners are installed. This results in a better spline.

4) Vise grips will hold backsplash bars together as they are being bolted together.

5) A steel hammer and a block of wood can be used to make minor alterations of
the stainless steel along the seam between two units, in order to perfect the
seam. This is used after the units are splined.

6) A rubber mallet.

7) A socket set.

8) Phillips, hex head and straight blade screwdrivers.

9) 7/16” (1.1cm), 9/16” (1.4cm) and 1/2” (1.3cm) open end wrenches.

10) Silicone sealant; Dow Corning #732 is ideal.

11) Drill motor.

12) Electrical test meter.

13) 5/16 nut driver to remove shipping braces.

14) Adjustable wrench for leg adjustments.
