GENERAL INFORMATION – Custom Back Bar Cabinets
Parts List
• (3) Shelves per door (one may be used as a oor
rack)
• Shelf clips
Tools Required
• #2 Phillips Screwdriver
• 10” Cresent Wrench
• 9/16” Allen Wrench
• 5/16” and 3/8” Hex Socket
• Power Drill or Driver (for leg caster installation)
Plumbing
Condensate from the cooling coil is automatically
evaporated through a condensate pan located in the
condensing unit housing. Each unit is also equipped
with a oor drain located in the right rear corner of
the cabinet. The drain can be plumbed to an external
oor drain by connecting to the 3/4” NPT thread out
the side or the 1” NPS thread out the bottom. Both
drains ports come plugged from the factory and can
be removed if needed.
NOTE: Remote units require evaporator condensate
to be plumbed to an external drain.
Plumbing
Push the cabinet into place using rollers when
necessary. IMPORTANT: Proper air ow around the
condensing unit is necessary for ecient operation.
Never obstruct the air ow in and out of the
condensing unit.
For sanitation purposes, it may be necessary to
seal the base of the cabinet to the oor. This can be
accomplished by laying a bead of silicone sealant
between the base of the cabinet and the oor as
shown by the gure below:
Leveling the Cabinet
When the cabinet is in place, check installation with
carpenter’s level. When level front to back and left
to right, accumulated water will drain out of the
cabinet evaporator drain.
Electrical
The cabinet must be connected to a separately
fused power source (see electrical specification
plate) and grounded in accordance with National
and Local Electrical Codes. Caution: Do not
attempt to operate the equipment on any other
power source than that listed on the Electrical
Specification plate.
Uncrating and Inspection
Remove all crating material before operating.
Carefully inspect cabinet for hidden damage. If
damage is discovered, file your claim immediately
with the transportation company. Perlick isnot
responsible for damage in transit.
Perlick is committed to continuous improvement. Therefore, we reserve the right to change specications without prior notice

Refrigeration and Temperature Control
Self-contained units are equipped with a heavy-duty
refrigeration system that is factory set to maintain a
product storage temperature of approximately 38° F.
Adjusting the Temperature
The temperature control is inside the cabinet on the
left-hand side of the evaporator fan panel assembly.
You will need a screwdriver to turn the adjusting
screw. Make small adjustments until the desired
temperature is achieved.
Colder Temperatures:
Turn the adjusting screw clockwise (to the right)
Warmer Temperatures:
Turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise (to the
left).
Temperature Control ‘OFF’:
Turn the adjusting screw completely counterclockwise to the ‘O’ position until a click is noted.
The condenser fan motor turns o and on with the
compressor. The evaporator fan motor is on all the
time.
Cleaning the Cabinet
Use a mild detergent and water to clean the inside
and outside of the cabinet. Dry thoroughly. Never
use a scouring pad or abrasive cleanser.
NOTE: An industrial strength, commercial cleaner
can be used to clean the outside of painted cabinets.
Cleaning the Condenser
The condenser (located behind the front grille cover)
should be inspected every 30 days and cleaned, if
necessary. Use a long handled, sti brush to clean
the dirt from the front surface of the condenser.
Keeping the condenser free from dust and dirt will
ensure ecient operation.
CAUTION: Do not bend the ns while brushing the
front of the condenser.
Failure to keep the condenser clean will cause a loss
in condensing unit eciency.
NOTE: Cabinet temperatures lower than 34° F will
not allow for proper defrosting of the evaporator
coil. If defrosting is necessary, turn the control knob
to the OFF position until coil is defrosted.
