• Electrical: 115 Volt AC, 1 Phase, 60 Hz. A separate 15 Amp circuit is recommended. A 6-foot grounded
cord and plug is included with self-contained models.
• Plumbing: Self-contained Models: Automatic condensate evaporator is included. No drain connection

through one of the 3/4
Self-contained Keg Coolers: The drain pain drain is pre-plumbed at the factory to stub out below
the compressor compartment. A field connection to an external drain must be made from that point.
Remote Models: An external drain connection is required. Use the ten foot length of 1/2" ID by
5/8" OD plastic tubing provided to run the drain line for condensate. The tubing should exit
"
side knock-out holes.
uncratinganD start-uP instructions
All models are shipped in one carton. These steps should be followed:
1. If legs or casters are included, bolt them to the base with the bolts provided.
2. Unwrap power cord from base if included.
3. Position unit and level and/or seal as required (see page 2 and 3).
4. The evaporator drain pan on remote models must be plumbed to an external drain. All units with draft
beer must be plumbed to an external drain (except model KC24 which includes an internal plastic drain
bottle). On self-contained models with draft beer and a factory installed finished top, the beer tower drain
pan is plumbed through the cabinet and stubs out in the 3" space below the compressor compartment.
Connection to an external drain must be made from that point.
5. Place shelves in desired location.
6. Plug into 115 volt AC outlet if a power cord is included. Remote models require electrical connections
to be made by an electrician or remote refrigeration contractor.
7. Load with bottles or cans and allow time for products to cool.
8. Your Glastender equipment is now ready for use.
oPeration
The operating temperature range is 36°F (2°C) to 40°F (5°C).
Self-contained models include an automatic defrost system. The refrigerator will defrost every six hours for
approximately 20 minutes. Endwall coolers will defrost every four hours for approximately 15 minutes. During
the defrost, the fan inside the cooler will remain on and the refrigeration system will turn off.

Cleaning is essential to sustaining the integrity of your equipment and preventing corrosion.
ESTIMATED CLEANING TIME: 5 to 10 minutes per unit daily, 45 minutes quarterly
FREQUENCY: Daily cleaning of exterior & door gaskets. Quarterly cleaning of interior, including shelves.
PROCEDURE:
1. A non-chlorine based cleaner or mild detergent and warm water applied with a soft cloth or sponge to all
contact surfaces.
2. Immediately rinse off cleaning agent(s), using clean warm water, clean soft cloth or sponge.
3. Dry with a soft clean cloth, removing standing water as soon as possible.
NOTES:
Never use hydrochloric acid, wire brushes, steel wool, scrapers, or chlorine based cleaners on stainless steel
1.
surfaces, since they will break down the passivity layer and allow corrosion to occur.
2. On stainless steel surfaces, you may use a soft bristle brush or Scotch-Brite® pad for more stubborn stains.
Always scrub with the direction of the grain. Follow with a thorough cleaning as described above.
3. Deposits from food preparation must be properly removed. Even hard water deposits will rust stainless steel,
if not removed.
4. Repeated cleaning may dry up black-vinyl-clad steel (exterior) surfaces of the cooler. Armor All® or similar
product can bring back the shine. Apply the product to a cloth and then rub into the surface, rather than spraying it directly onto the black-vinyl-clad surface.
5. The cooler door gaskets are most often overlooked when cleaning. Failure to clean them regularly will lead to
premature failure, since alcohol and moisture build-up breaks down the gasket material.
sealing Vertical Door coolerto floor
To comply with NSF & health codes, the cooler base must be sealed to the floor using NSF listed sealant. Place
a bead of sealant along outer edges of the base and remove excess with disposable towel. The floor sealing
procedure does not apply to models that include legs or casters.

In February 2004, Glastender released new BB and ND self contained cooler designs with the evaporator housing moved into an area above the compressor compartment. The serial numbers for these units will be 90000 and
above. As of September 2006, KC52, KC72, and KC84 model keg coolers are being manufactured as endwall
models. Due to special customer request some BB and ND self contained models may not have the endwall
design. Please be sure to verify which cooler design type you are ordering parts for. The term endwall will be
used throughout this document to denote parts used for coolers featuring this design.
