MAINTENANCE
CONTINUED
If your freezer seems to vibrate excessively when
the compressor is running, loosen (but do not
remove) the bolts on the compressor.
MAINTENANCE
Gasket Maintenance
Gaskets require regular cleaning to prevent mold and mildew
build up and also to keep the elasticity of the gasket. Gasket
cleaning can be done with the use of warm soapy water. Avoid
full strength cleaning products on gaskets as this can cause
them to become brittle and prevent proper seals. Also, never
use sharp tools or knives to scrape or clean the gasket which
could possibly tear the gasket and rip the bellows.
Gaskets can easily be replaced and do not require the use of
tools or authorized service persons. The gaskets are “Dart”
style and can be pulled out of the grove in the door and new
gaskets can be “pressed” back into place.
Doors/Hinges
Over time and with heavy use doors the hinges may become
loose. If it is noticed that the door is beginning to sag, it may
become necessary to tighten the screws that mount the hinge
brackets to the frame of the unit. If the doors are loose or
sagging this can cause the hinge to pull out of the frame which
may damage both the doors and the door hinges. In some
cases this can require qualifi ed service agents or maintenance
personnel.
Drain Maintenance
Each unit has a drain located inside the unit which removes
the condensation from the evaporator coil and evaporates it
at an external condensate evaporator pan. Each drain can
become loose or disconnected from moving or bumping the
drain. If you notice excessive water accumulation on the
inside of the unit be sure the drain tube is connected from
the evaporator housing to the condensate evaporator drain
pan. If water is collected underneath the unit you may want
to check the condensate evaporator drain tube to be sure it
is still located inside the drain pan. The leveling of the unit is
important as the units are designed to drain properly when
on a level surface, if your fl oor is not level this can also cause
drain problems. Be sure all drain lines are free of obstructions,
typically food product is found blocking drain lines causing
water to back up and overfl ow the drain pans.
