1.
Make sure time clock is set correctly. Pay CLOSE attention to the AM/PM sides of the dial.
This makes a huge difference in performance. Please refer to detailed instruction sheet.
2. Make sure that temperature controllers for rail and base are set correctly. Please refer to
detailed instruction sheets.
3. Make certain air intake filters below condensing unit are cleaned or replaced regularly.
Depending on the kitchen environment, this may be monthly or quarterly procedure.
4. Keep drain strainers clean and in place. Clogged drains mean water will accumulate and
freeze, causing poor operation /cooling in rail.
5. ALL pan openings in the cold rail must be covered with proper sized hotel pans AT ALL TIMES
to ensure proper operation; this is due to the airflow in the rail.
6. Please make sure that compressor area covers are in place at ALL times.
7.
Do not store anything in the compressor area.
8. Keep rails clean of debris, and wipe up spills immediately. Keeping the rails clean will help
avoid problems in item 9 below.
9. NEVER dump water into the rail when cleaning. This can overflow into the fan, causing failure
and the resulting service call.
10. Do not use sharp utensils to clean the gaskets. Wiping them down daily ensures easy
cleaning.
11. Make certain that casters get wiped down regularly, if they get clogged with grease, they will
eventually “flat spot” and fail.
12. Units 36” and shorter have a rear mount compressor and should not be pushed against a wall
and should have a minimum clearance on both sides of at least 3”. They breathe from the rear
and need all the air they can get!
13. Do not place trash receptacles or any other “solid” object in front of compressor areas, again
the air flow is needed for proper breathing.
14. Be aware of condensate evaporator and plug underneath unit, particularly when mopping or
sweeping. Also make sure plug is fully seated.
15. Evaporator coils in bases should be cleaned every 6 months. Unplug unit or disconnect
power, then access by removing the 4 Phillips head screws on the rear access cover and remove
cover. Clean with vacuum cleaner or soft brush.
16. Keep your eyes open for conditions that hinder cooler operation. Items such as shelving with
heat lamps above refrigerated rail and adjacent cooking equipment that though off heat which
could hinder the refrigerators performance.
