Features a floor drain with a
⁄4” female pipe thread
connection for disposal of both condensate and
drip pan waste. Remove bottom 1” NPS or side 3⁄4”
drain plug attach male pipe to create external 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.
Installing Casters
(Portable Models Only)
Attach four casters to the cabinet bottom; rigid
casters at the rear and swivel casters on the front.
1
Use the supplied
/4”- 20 x 3/4” hex head self-
tapping machine screws.
Placing the Cabinet
Push the cabinet into place using rollers when
necessary. Important: Proper air flow around the
condensing unit is necessary for efficient operation.
Never obstruct the air flow in and out of the
condensing unit.
Leveling the Cabinet
When the cabinet is in place, check installation with
carpenter’s level. When perfectly level, accumulated
water will drain out. Aslight pitch to the drain side
will not harm the cabinet. Water may accumulate if
cabinet is pitched to the opposite side.
Installing the Faucet and
Dispensing Head
Before you begin: Wash dispensing head and
faucet. Flush beer, dispensing head and faucet
lines with fresh water.
■
Apply RTV around the base of the dispensing
head to seal it to the top. Align the dispensing
head over the five holes on the cabinet top
and use the five stainless steel #10-32 x 1
Phillips pan head stainless steel machine
screws to secure standard to cabinet top.
Wipe off excess RTV to complete the seal.
■
Attach faucet to standard using spanner
wrench to tighten coupling. Attach faucet
handle to faucet.
■
Insert flexible plastic air hose six to seven
inches into bottom of faucet standard.
Secure hose with tie wrap (supplied).

Draft Beer Information – Single Keg Beer Dispensers
Temperature
One of the most common causes of dispensing
problems is improper temperature. Draft beer
should be stored at a temperature between 32° and
38°. At warmer temperatures, beer will foam.
At temperatures lower than 30° F., beer will freeze.
When beer freezes, the alcohol in the beer may
separate and cause the beer to be cloudy with an
“off” taste.
Draft beer is not pasteurized and must be kept cool at all times.
Refrigeration and Temperature Control
The Partymaster Dispenser is equipped with a
heavy-duty refrigeration system designed to
automatically maintain a storage temperature of
36-41 degrees F. The control is factory set at 38
degrees F.
Adjusting the temperature
The temperature control is inside the cabinet on
the right-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).
In normal operation the condensing unit will turn on
and off, depending on the cooling load required.
The condenser fan motor turns off and on with the
condensing unit. The evaporator fan motor runs
continuously. The fan motors are lifetime lubricated
and will require no oiling.
NOTE:
Cabinet Temperatures lower than 34° 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.

Cleaning the Beer System – Single Keg Beer Dispensers
The entire beer system, to include the faucet, flexible
beer line and tapping devices must be cleaned at
regular intervals. We recommend flushing the entire
system with fresh water immediately after a keg has
been emptied. Once each month the system should
be cleaned chemically.
It is recommended that you purchase Perlick’s
Pump Type Sterilizer, as shown below. It is
equipped with an adapter that attaches directly to
the faucet shank in lieu of the faucet. It is also
available with a slip coupling for those who choose
to clean their faucets in place.

Cleaning the draft beer system
will help to eliminate the build-up
of the following materials:
■
Bacteria:
Beer is an excellent food for
bacteria (none of which is
harmful). Proper conditions
may begin the growth of
bacteria in draft beer and on
the beer faucet. By regular
cleaning, we prevent this
bacterial buildup and
No. 887P
maintain the quality of the
draft beer. Greenish or yellowish colored material on the faucet may indicate
bacterial growth.
■
Yeast:
All domestic draft beers contain a small amount
of yeast which remains in the beer from the
fermentation process. When the temperature of
draft beer exceeds 50° a process of secondary
fermentation may take place. The beer faucet
may exhibit a white colored substance (yeast
build up) if not cleaned on a regular basis.
■
Beer Stone:
All beer contains calcium which is present from
the grains used in the brewing process. it is an
important natural material in draft systems in
that as it oxidizes it coats the internal parts of
the beer lines and equipment. This thin coat of
beer stone helps prevent the beer from picking
up strong metallic or plastic flavors as it flows
through the system. The beer stone will
continue to build if the system is not cleaned
properly or regularly and can cause drawing
problems if it begins to flake off. Beer stone is
present if one can see a brownish color on the
faucet or inner wall of the beer line, or tobaccolike flakes in the beer.
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
Use a long handled, stiff brush to clean the dirt from
the front surface of the condenser. Keeping the
condenser free from dust and dirt will ensure efficient operation.
CAUTION: Do not bend the fins while brushing the
front of the condenser.
Condenser
The condenser (located behind the back cover)
should be inspected every 30 days and cleaned, if
necessary. Failure to keep the condenser clean will
cause a loss in condensing unit efficiency.

Pouring a Perfect Glass of Beer – Single Keg Beer Dispensers
➠
STEP 1
Start with a clean glass.
Place the glass at a
45° angle, one inch

After the glass has
reached half full,
gradually bring the
glass to the upright
