INSTALLATION and START UP

INTRODUCTION –

The DVG-8 is specifically designed for dipping/display of bulk ice cream, sherbet, or frozen
yogurt. Wide glass front and one-piece molded lids provide an unobstructed view of the
product for impulse merchandising. Optional items include easy to use can holder trays
and dipper wells.

INSPECTION –

Upon receipt of the cabinet, carefully examine the crating for damage. If damage is found,
make a note on the delivery ticket before signing. Carefully remove shipping crate and
examine the cabinet for “concealed” damage. If damage is found contact the delivering
carrier immediately and have his agent prepare an inspection report for the purpose of
filing a claim. This is your responsibility.

INSTALLATION and START UP

LOCATION –

The location of your cabinet is important. Make sure your selected location is NOT in any
of the following areas as it could seriously affect the operation.

• Not in direct sunlight.

• Not in the air path of heat or air conditioning ducts.

• Not at an exit or entrance affected by extreme temperature change.

Allow 2 feet of clearance at the rear of the case to allow adequate air movement across the
condenser for proper refrigeration system performance, do not obstruct the grille at the
rear intake and discharge.

Level case front to back and end to end, shimming where necessary upon installation to
assure proper operating drains, and refrigeration system.

POWER REQUIREMENTS

The DVG model is equipped with a three-wire grounded service cord for your protection.
The cabinet is designed to operate on 115V single-phase 60hz current. A separate circuit is
recommended to prevent product loss due to overloading or malfunction of other
equipment on the same circuit. Use a time delay fuse or circuit breaker. The supply circuit
must be properly grounded and conform to National and Local Electrical Codes. Voltage,
as measured at the compressor terminals during operation, must not vary more than 5%
from cabinet serial plate rating. If a low voltage condition exists, contact your electrician
or Power Company.
