Air Cooled Units
Air cooled units require a minimum of 3” (76 mm) of air
clearance on all sides and employs two 3” air
deflectors on the rear of the unit. This is required to
allow for adequate air flow across the condenser(s).
Failure to allow adequate clearance can reduce the
refrigeration capacity of the freezer and possibly
cause permanent damage to the compressor(s).
Electrical Connections
This unit must be plugged into a properly grounded
receptacle. The cord and plug must be sized for 20A
usage. The voltage specifications are 115V--60--1.
Follow specifications listed on your data label.
In the United States, this equipment is intended to be
installed in accordance with the National Electrical
Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70--1987. The purpose of
the NEC code is the practical safeguarding of persons
and property from hazards arising from the use of
electricity. This code contains provisions considered
necessary for safety. Compliance therewith and
proper maintenance will result in an installation
essentially free from hazard!
In all other areas of the world, equipment should be
installed in accordance with the existing local codes.
Please contact your local authorities.
SStationary appliances which are not
equipped with a power cord and a plug or
another device to disconnect the appliance
from the power source must have an all-pole
disconnecting device with a contact gap of
at least 3mm installed in the external
installation.
SAppliances that are permanently connected
to fixed wiring and for which leakage
currents may exceed 10 mA, particularly
when disconnected or not used for long
periods, or during initial installation, shall
have protective devices such as a GFI, to
protect against the leakage of current,
installed by the authorized personnel to the
local codes.
SSupply cords used with this unit shall be
oil-resistant, sheathed flexible cable not
lighter than ordinary polychloroprene or
other equivalent synthetic
elastomer-sheathed cord (Code designation
60245 IEC 57) installed with the proper cord
anchorage to relieve conductors from strain,
including twisting, at the terminals and
protect the insulation of the conductors from
abrasion.
FOLLOW YOUR LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES!
CAUTION: THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE
PROPERLY GROUNDED! FAILURE TO DO SO
CAN RESULT IN SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY
FROM ELECTRICAL SHOCK!
This unit is provided with an equipotential
grounding lug that is to be properly attached to the rear
of the frame by the authorized installer. The installation
location is marked by the equipotential bonding
symbol (5021 of IEC 60417-1) on both the removable
panel and the equipments frame.

Beater Rotation
Beater rotation must be clockwise as viewed
looking into the freezing cylinder.
To correct rotation on a single--phase unit, change the
leads inside the beater motor. (Follow the diagram
printed on motor.)

Refrigerant
In consideration of our environment, Taylor
proudly uses only earth friendly HFC refrigerants. The
HFC refrigerant used in this unit is R404A. This
refrigerant is generally considered non-toxic and
non-flammable, with an Ozone Depleting Potential
(ODP) of zero (0).
However, any gas under pressure is potentially
hazardous and must be handled with caution.
NEVER fill any refrigerant cylinder completely with
liquid. Filling the cylinder to approximately 80% will
allow for normal expansion.
Refrigerant liquid sprayed onto the skin may
cause serious damage to tissue. Keep eyes and skin
protected. If refrigerant burns should occur, flush
immediately with cold water. If burns are severe, apply
ice packs and contact a physician immediately.
Taylor reminds technicians to be cautious of
government laws regarding refrigerant recovery,
recycling, and reclaiming systems. If you have any
questions regarding these laws, please contact the
factory Service Department.
WARNING:R404Arefrigerantusedin
conjunction with polyolester oils is extremely moisture
absorbent. When opening a refrigeration system, the
maximum time the system is open must not exceed 15
minutes. Cap all open tubing to prevent humid air or
water from being absorbed by the oil.

Section 2To the Operator
The freezer you have purchased has been carefully
engineered and manufactured to give you dependable
operation. The Taylor Model C902, when properly
operated and cared for, will produce a consistent
quality product. Like all mechanical products, they will
require cleaning and maintenance. A minimum
amount of care and attention is necessary if the
operating procedures outlined in this manual are
followed closely.
This Operator’s Manual should be read before
operating or performing any maintenance on your
equipment.
Your Taylor freezer will NOT eventually compensate
for and correct any errors during the set--up or filling
operations. Thus, the initial assembly and priming
procedures are of extreme importance. It is strongly
recommended that personnel responsible for the
equipment’soperation,bothassemblyand
disassembly, sit down together and go through these
procedures in order to be properly trained and to make
sure that no misunderstandings exist.
In the event you should require technical assistance,
please contact your local authorized Taylor Distributor.
Note: Warranty is valid only if the parts are authorized
Taylor parts, purchased from an authorized Taylor
Distributor, and the required service work is provided
by an authorized Taylor service technician. Taylor
reserves the right to deny warranty claims on

If the crossed out wheeled bin symbol is
affixed to this product, it signifies that this product is
compliant with the EU Directive as well as other similar
legislation in effect after August 13, 2005. Therefore,
it must be collected separately after its use is
completed, and cannot be disposed as unsorted
municipal waste.
The user is responsible for returning the product to the
appropriate collection facility, as specified by your local
code.
For additional information regarding applicable local
laws, please contact the municipal facility and/or local
distributor.
Compressor Warranty Disclaimer
The refrigeration compressor(s) on this machine are
warranted for the term indicated on the warranty card
accompanying this machine. However, due to the
Montreal Protocol and the U.S. Clean Air Act
Amendments of 1990, many new refrigerants are
being tested and developed, thus seeking their way
into the service industry. Some of these new
refrigerantsarebeingadvertisedasdrop--in
replacements for numerous applications. It should be
noted that, in the event of ordinary service to this
machine’s refrigeration system, only the refrigerantspecified on the affixed data label should be used.
The unauthorized use of alternate refrigerants will void
your compressor warranty . It will be the owner’s
responsibility to make this fact known to any technician
he employs.
It should also be noted that Taylor does not warrant the
refrigerant used in its equipment. For example, if the
refrigerant is lost during the course of ordinary service
to this machine, Taylor has no obligation to either
supply or provide its replacement either at billable or
unbillable terms. Taylor does have the obligation to
recommend a suitable replacement if the original
refrigerant is banned, obsoleted, or no longer available
during the five year warranty of the compressor.
Taylor will continue to monitor the industry and test
new alternates as they are being developed. Should a
new alternate prove, through our testing, that it would
be accepted as a drop--in replacement, then the above
disclaimer would become null and void. To find out the
current status of an alternate refrigerant as it relates to
your compressor warranty, call the local Taylor
Distributor or the Taylor Factory. Be prepared to
provide the Model/Serial Number of the unit in
question.
