Preparing the Cabinet – Glass Frosters

SEALER (RTV)

CABINET
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 transport company. Perlick is not
responsible for damage in transit.
Plumbing
No plumbing connections are required. Condensate
from the cooling coil is automatically evaporated
through a condensate pan located in the
condensing unit section.
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:
ment on any other power source than that listed
on the Electrical Specification Plate.
Do not attempt to operate the equip-
Placing the Cabinet
To assure maximum performance, fresh air must
be allowed to circulate through the machinery
compartment. It is important to allow at least two
inches of clearance at the back or left end of the
cabinet. Do not place anything in front of the
cabinet that would obstruct air flow at these grilles.
Do not place the unit in an unventillated small
room.
CAUTION:
Removing the factory installed back clearance
spacers without providing proper left side grill
clearance for compressor air flow will void the
warranty.
Cabinet should be leveled.
For sanitation purposes, it may be necessary to
seal the base of the cabinet to the floor. This
can be accomplished by laying a bead of silicone
sealant along the base of the cabinet as shown
by the figure below.
Installing Shelves (when provided)
The front and rear horizontal shelf brackets have
been factory installed for a 2 shelf kit glass froster.
Installing Casters or Legs (optional)
Attach casters or legs to the cabinet bottom in
holes provided. Use the supplied 1⁄4”–20 hex head
self-tapping machine screws. If unit is tipped on its
back for an extended period of time, wait 24 hours
after the unit is uprighted to plug the unit in.
