Carrier 52-2038-01, Service & Installation Manual

FREIGHT DAMAGES AND SHORTAGES

The cabinet was inspected and
packaged at the factory, and should

arrive in excellent condition. The transportation company
or other parties involved in the shipment are responsible
for loss and/or damage. Always make an inspection
before and after uncrating. Inspect the crated unit(s)
before locating (preferably at the point of unloading by
the transportation company).

INSPECTING FOR DAMAGES

Always use care when removing shipping
tape, blocks, pads, hardware or other material

until you are satisfied that the unit is completely opera-
tional.

Check the cartons or containers. If these are damaged
in any way, open them and inspect the contents in the
driver’s presence. If damage is detected:

1. Have the driver note the nature and extent of the

damage on the freight bill.

2. Notify the transportation company’s office to request

an inspection. Carrier claim policies usually require
inspections to be made within 15 days of delivery.

3. If damage is noticed, file a claim with the transporta-

tion company.

FILING A CLAIM

File a claim for loss at once with the transportation
company for:

A. A cash adjustment; B. Repairs; or C. Replacement

When filing your claim, retain all packaging materials
and receipts.

HANDLING THE CABINET

The refrigeration system of the cabinet is
designed to operate with the cabinet located

on a level surface. Do not tilt the cabinet more than
10° to any side. If the cabinet must be tilted on an
angle for handling or moving purposes, allow it to sit in
an upright position 30 minutes prior to starting.

CHOOSING A LOCATION

This model cabinet should be situated to allow proper air
circulation. Cabinets require a 2" minimum clearance
behind for proper air circulation.

The cabinet must be installed on a sturdy, solid, level
floor.

The cabinet must be located so it can be plugged or
wired into a properly grounded three-prong electrical
outlet of 115/220 volt, 60 hz. The electrical outlet should
not be controlled by a wall switch which might be turned
off accidentally.

UNCRATING THE CABINET

The cabinet should be moved as close as possible to
the operating location before removing crate base. Be
sure to follow the steps in the “INSPECTING FOR
DAMAGES” instructions.

INSTALLING THE CABINET

After removing the skid from the cabinet, slide cabinet
into location. Level cabinet to insure proper draining of
the defrost water.

To  meet NSF requirements, these cabinets must be
sealed to the floor with an NSF or FDA approved
sealant.

Remove the front grill from cabinet. Remove front hold
down bolts and pull unit out of cabinet. Remove ship-
ping band from compressor. Be sure that the compres-
sor “floats” freely on the compressor springs. Check
refrigeration lines to see that they are “free” and no
damage was done in shipping. Check fan blade for free
operation.

Check voltage and amp draw on the serial plate to
determine proper fuse and line size. Voltage should be
checked at the compressor terminals as the compres-
sor is starting, to determine if there is excessive “volt-
age drop.” This voltage drop should not exceed 10% of
the rated compressor voltage. If the voltage reads 115
or 230 with no load and it drops below 103 or 208 when
the compressor tries to start, it is an indication that the
supply wiring is too small in size or too long in  length.

It is recommended that a separate circuit be run for each
cabinet to prevent the possibility of another appliance
blowing a fuse causing subsequent loss of product.
