Chapter 3 Installation, adjustments and maintenance
3-1. Installation
The freezer should be conveniently located for day-to-day use in a dry well-ventilated room.
Do not install the freezer where the temperature will go below 0°F or above 110°F, because it will
not maintain proper temperatures.
Be sure to install the freezer on a floor strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded.
The freezer must be solidly positioned on the floor if it is to function at its best. Shims may be used
to accomplish this wherever the floor is too uneven. If the place selected for the freezer is damp or
moist, place 2 X 4 s (51 mm X 102 mm) under its entire length to assure adequate support.
3-2 Defrosting and Draining
In most climates, defrosting will be necessary only about twice a year.
To have the freezer operate most efficiently, do not permit more than 1/2” (13 mm) of frost to
accumulate on the shelves.
To remove frost, scrape with a plastic or wood spatula or scraper.
Do not use an ice pick or sharp-edged instrument as it may damage or scratch the freezer.
Do not use any electrical device in defrosting your freezer.
For Complete Defrosting
1. Turn the temperature control to the
OFF
position and unplug the freezer.
2. Remove all food and place it in corrugated boxes, insulated bags, picnic coolers, etc. Use
towels and newspapers for insulation as needed.
3. With the door/lid open, use pans of hot water to speed loosening of frost. Remove large pieces
before they melt.
Chest models have a defrost water drain at the front.
4. Sponge excess water from the bottom of the freezer as it collects to prevent over flowing.
5. After defrosting, clean the inside of the freezer.
6. Replace the drain plug inside the cabinet and the cap on the defrost drain. Fold over and dry
the gasket on the hinge side of the lid.
7. Plug in the freezer. Return the temperature control to its previous position and return food to the
