  • Page 6: Safety

    AFETY Your Carrier Transicold refrigeration unit has been designed with the safety of the operator in mind. During normal operation, all moving parts are fully guarded to help prevent injury. During all pre-trip inspections, daily inspections, problem troubleshooting, you may be exposed to moving parts; please stay clear of all moving parts when the unit is in operation and when the unit main power switch is in the RUN position.
  • Page 7: Pre-Trip Inspection

    NSPECTION The pre-trip inspection should be performed before picking up any load. This inspection is essential to anticipate and help minimize the possibility of “over-the-road” problems. These checks take only a few minutes. 1. Place the unit’s main switch in the STOP (0) position. 2.

  • Page 27: Product Loading

    RODUCT OADING BEFORE LOADING: D Pre-cool the body. This will remove much of the heat from the inside of the body, and give the product better protection when it is loaded. D Place the unit in a defrost cycle immediately before loading. This will remove moisture accumulated on the evaporator coil.
  • Page 28 Product stacking is another important factor in protecting the product. Products that generate heat -- fruits and vegetables, for example -- should be stacked so the air can flow through the product to remove the heat. This is called “air stacking” the product. Products that do not create heat -- meats and frozen products -- should be stacked tightly in the center of the trailer.
