SELECTING A LOCATION FOR YOUR NEW UNIT
The following conditions should be considered when selecting a location for your
unit:
1.
Floor Load:
The area on which the unit will rest must be level, free of
vibration, and suitably strong enough to support the combined weights
of the unit plus the maximum product load weight.
NOTE: Randell
’
s Low Profile Equipment Stands are designed to support
the weight of standard cooking equipment, such as griddles, fryers, and
cook top ranges. For non-standard cooking equipment or if there is a
question pertaining to weight load limits, consult the factory at 1-800-
621-8560.
2.
Clearance:
There must be a combined total of at least 3
”
clearance on
all sides of the unit.
3.
Ventilation:
The air cooled self contained unit requires a sufficient
amount of cool clean air.
Avoid surrounding your equipment stand
around other heat generating equipment and out of direct sunlight.
Also, avoid locating in an unheated room or where the room
temperature may drop below 55
°
F or about 90
°

INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
After the final location has been determined, refer to the following checklist prior to
start-up:
1. Check all exposed refrigeration lines to ensure that they are not kinked,
dented, or rubbing together.
2. Check that the condenser and evaporator fans rotate freely without
striking any stationary members.
3. Unit must be properly leveled; check all legs or casters to ensure they
all are in contact with the floor while maintaining a level work surface.
Adjusting bullet feet heights or shimming casters may be necessary if
the floor is not level.
NOTE: Damage to equipment may result if not
followed.
Randell is not responsible for damage to equipment if
improperly installed.
4. Plug in unit and turn on main on/off power switch.
5. Allow unit time to cool down to temperature.
If temperature
adjustments are required, the temperature control is located within the
cabinet on the front face of the evaporator coil behind the thermometer
(Note: The left set of drawers or center set for a 6 drawer unit must be
removed to access the temperature adjustment control).
6. Refer to the front of this manual for serial number location.
Please
record this information in your manual on page 3 now.
It will be
necessary when ordering replacement parts or requesting warranty
service.
7. Confirm that the unit is holding temperature. Set controls to desired
temperature for your particular ambient and altitude.
8. Allow your unit to operate for approximately 2 hours before putting in
food to allow interior of unit to cool down to storage temperature.
