1. INSTALLATION

WARNING

TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LIFT A UNIT WITHOUT HELP. FOR HEAVIER UNITS,
USE OF A MECHANICAL LIFT MAY BE APPROPRIATE.

IBD UNITS ARE EQUIPPED WITH AUTOMATIC AGITATION. THE UNIT MAY ACTIVATE UNEXPECTEDLY. DO NOT PLACE
HANDS, OR FOREIGN OBJECTS INTO THE ICE STORAGE COMPARTMENT.

WHEN UNIT IS BEING SERVICED, CLEANED, OR SANITIZED, UNPLUG DISPENSER FROM THE POWER SOURCE.

1.1 RECEIVING

Each unit is completely tested under operating conditions and thoroughly inspected before shipment. At time of shipment, carrier accepts
the unit and any claim for damage(s) must be made with carrier. Upon receiving units from the delivering carrier, carefully inspect carton
for visible indication(s) of damage. If damage exists, have carrier note same on bill of lading and file a claim with the carrier.

1.2 UNPACKING

A. Set shipping carton upright on the floor. Cut band and remove. Open top of carton and remove interior packing.
B. Lift carton up and off of the dispenser. Remove wood shipping base from the bottom of the dispenser. (Support dispenser while

removing shipping base to prevent damage to the dispenser.)
C. Remove installation parts kits from the ice compartment.
D. Inspect unit and parts for concealed damage(s). If damage exists, notify delivering carrier and file claim against same.

1.3 SELECTING THE LOCATION

A. Select a level, well ventilated, accessible location (convenient to water, soda, and syrup lines and open type drain), a properly

grounded electric supply and ensure sufficient clearance for air circulation. Sufficient clearance must be provided, if an ice maker is

not installed, to allow filling the ice compartment from a five gallon bucket (a minimum of 16 inches is recommended). Lancer does

not

recommend the use of shaved, flake, nugget, or pellet ice in the dispenser. Dispenser will only operate properly with cube ice.

B. The selected location should be able to support the weight of the dispenser, ice and possibly an ice maker being installed after

counter cut out is made. Total weight (with ice maker) for the IBD22 unit, IBD25 unit, IBD30 unit, or IBD44 unit could exceed

800 pounds (363.6kg).
C. Unit may be installed directly on the countertop or on legs supplied with the unit. If installed directly on the counter, the unit must be

sealed to the countertop with an FDA approved sealant. If an ice maker is to be mounted on top of dispenser, do not

install dispenser

on legs.

1.4 CONNECTING TO ELECTRICAL POWER

WARNINGS

THIS UNIT MUST BE PROPERLY ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED TO AVOID POSSIBLE FATAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR
SERIOUS INJURY TO THE OPERATOR. THE POWER CORD IS PROVIDED WITH A THREE PRONG GROUNDED PLUG.
IF A THREE-HOLE GROUNDED ELECTRICAL OUTLET IS NOT AVAILABLE, USE AN APPROVED METHOD TO
GROUND THE UNIT.

BE SURE TO FOLLOW LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES WHEN MAKING ALL CONNECTIONS. EACH DRINK
DISPENSER MUST BE SUPPLIED WITH A SEPARATE ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT. DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS WITH
THIS UNIT. DO NOT “GANG” TOGETHER WITH OTHER ELECTRICAL DEVICES ON THE SAME OUTLET.

THE KEY SWITCH DOES NOT DISABLE THE LINE VOLTAGE TO THE TRANSFORMER PRIMARY. ALWAYS
DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE UNIT TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY
INTERNAL MAINTENANCE. ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL SHOULD SERVICE INTERNAL COMPONENTS OF
ELECTRICAL CONTROL HOUSING. MAKE SURE THAT ALL WATER LINES ARE TIGHT AND UNITS ARE DRY BEFORE
MAKING ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS!

A. Check the dispenser serial number plate for correct electrical requirements of unit. Do not plug into wall electrical outlet unless the

current shown on the serial number plate agrees with local current available.

B. Route the power supply cord to a grounded electrical outlet of the proper voltage and amperage rating, and plug in the unit.

1.5 CONNECTING TO WATER SUPPLY LINES

CAUTION

USE A SHARP KNIFE, RAZOR BLADE, OR TUBE CUTTER TO CUT TUBING. TUBING CUT WITH A SAW WILL RESULT IN
PLASTIC SHAVINGS WHICH WILL PLUG THE FLOW CONTROLS IN THE DISPENSING VALVE. A FILTER IN THE WATER

This basic Installation Sheet is an initial release.

If a complete Installation and Service Manual (for the unit being installed) is required or needed, please refer to the Lancer
web site (www.lancercorp.com). All Lancer Manuals and Instruction Sheets are being made available for immediate
access on the web site. Or contact Lancer Customer Service for assistance as required.

LINE MUST BE USED IF THE WATER SUPPLY CONTAINS ANY APPRECIABLE AMOUNT OF SILT, SAND, OR ANY OTHER
DEBRIS. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.

FAILURE TO LIMIT WATER PRESSURE TO 50 PSI (3.52 KG/CM

2

) WILL RESULT IN IMPROPER PERFORMANCE OF THE

DISPENSER - INSTALL WATER REGULATOR IF NECESSARY.

THE WATER SUPPLY MUST BE PROTECTED BY MEANS OF AN AIR GAP, A BACKFLOW PREVENTION DEVICE (LOCATED
UPSTREAM OF THE CO2 INJECTION SYSTEM) OR ANOTHER APPROVED METHOD TO COMPLY WITH NSF STANDARDS. A
LEAKING INLET WATER CHECK VALVE WILL ALLOW CARBONATED WATER TO FLOW BACK THROUGH THE PUMP
(WHEN IT IS SHUT OFF), AND CONTAMINATE THE WATER SUPPLY. A BACKFLOW PREVENTION DEVICE MUST COMPLY
WITH ASSE AND LOCAL STANDARDS. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INSTALLER TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE.

A SCREEN OF AT LEAST 100 MESH [100 STRANDS PER 25MM (ONE INCH)] SHALL BE INSTALLED IMMEDIATELY
UPSTREAM OF ALL CHECK VALVE TYPE BACKFLOW PREVENTERS USED FOR WATER SUPPLY PROTECTION. THE
SCREEN SHALL BE ACCESSIBLE AND REMOVABLE FOR CLEANING OR REPLACEMENT.

A FILTER IN THE WATER LINE MUST BE USED IF THE WATER SUPPLY CONTAINS ANY APPRECIABLE AMOUNT OF SILT,
SAND, OR ANY OTHER DEBRIS. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.

DO NOT OPERATE CARBONATOR PUMP WITH WATER SUPPLY SHUT OFF.

A. An adequate potable water supply must be provided. The water supply line must be at least a 3/8 inches (9.525 mm) pipe with a

minimum of 20 PSI line pressure, but not exceeding a maximum of 50 PSI. Water pressure exceeding 50 PSI must be reduced to 50
PSI with a pressure regulator.

1. Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to a potable water supply must all be sized, installed, and maintained
according to Federal, State, and Local laws.

2. Off tastes and excessive silt, sand, or iron require that a water filter be installed in the water supplying the Carbonator. The water
filter should be checked periodically, as required by local conditions.

3. Do not connect to a heated (hot) water source or a water source supplying soft water. This will cause excessive foaming.

B. The Carbonator Pump is equipped with a Strainer and a Tee on the outlet side for a plain water Valve (if required), but a water supply

containing any appreciable quantity of silt, fine sand, or other debris requires a Filter ahead of the Unit. The Filter cartridge must be
cleaned periodically, depending upon the condition of the water. Failure to do so may starve the Pump and cause it to burn out;
thereby, voiding the equipment warranty.

1.6 INSTALLATION OF THE UNIT

A Inspect the counter location where the unit is to be installed. Verify that the counter is strong enough to safely support the weight of

the unit being installed (see Section 1.3), after the cutout for the unit is made.
B. Remove Splash Plate and Top Cover.
C. Remove Cover Plate at rear of unit if not a “through the counter” installation.
D. Connect soda and water supply lines to 3/8 inch barb fittings at the front of the unit. Check for leaks. (If dispenser is to operate with

all soda valves, connect water line into one of the soda supply lines.)
E. Connect syrup supply lines to the 3/8 inch barb inlet fittings at the front of the unit. Check for leaks.
F. Install the ice bin drain hose; connect the 90° elbow or straight fitting underneath the unit’s base. The ice bin drain is located towards

the front of the bin and slightly to the right. Screw the elbow or straight fitting into the cold plate; uncoil and connect the hose. Extend

the hose to an open type drain.
G. Connect the hose to the Drip Tray fitting, install the Drip Tray, and extend hose to open type drain.
H. Both drain lines must be insulated with a closed cell insulation. Insulation must cover the entire length of the drain hose, including

fittings. The drain should be installed in such a manner that water does not collect in sags or other low points, as condensation will

form.

I. Install Cup Rest and Splash Plate.
J. Connect Power Cord to grounded electrical outlet.
K. Test Motor operation by pushing Ice Chute.
L. Clean and sanitize dispenser (see Section 3).
M. Fill unit approximately half full with ice. Push Chute and check for ice delivery.
N. Finish filling the unit with ice and install Top Cover.
O. Set brix ratio for beverage dispensing valves according to manufacturer’s instructions.
