RECEIVING YOUR NEW MODEL Congratulations on your recent purchase of Bally refrigerator superior food equipment products! When your shipment arrives, please thoroughly examine the shipping crate for any punctures, dents, or signs of rough handling. It is in your best interest to partially remove or open the shipping container in order to examine the model for any concealed damages which may have occurred during shipment.
"removal of grill" sections). VENTILATION The final location site of your air cooled refrigerator or freezer must be able to provide a large quantity of cool, clean air. The refrigeration system operates most efficiently and trouble-free with cool, dry air circulation. Avoid locations near heat and moisture generating equipment such as stoves, ovens, cooking ranges, fryers, dish washers, steam kettles, etc., and also direct sunlight where temperatures can...
Multiply 35 pounds by the amount of cubic feet in the cabinet and obtain the product load weight. For example, a 20 cubic foot refrigerator can hold approximately 700 pounds of product (35 x 20) and assuming the refrigerator itself weighs 300 pounds, the total combined weight of cabinet and product is approximately 1000 pounds.
INSTALLING LEGS AND LEVELING REACH-IN MODELS Your new reach-in model is supplied with adjustable type legs for leveling purposes. Each single and two section model has four leg mounting holes on its case bottom, and three section models have six leg mounting holes. Legs are packed in the accessory carton from which they must be removed and installed on the cabinet case bottom (see figure 2).
4. Defrost water will fail to drain properly and will overflow the evaporator coil drain pan and into the cabinet of both refrigerator and freezer models. INSTALLING CASTERS AND LEVELING REACH-IN MODELS If you wish to install casters on your new reach-in model, follow the steps above for "installing legs"...
INSTALLING CONDENSATE EVAPORATOR No floor drains or plumbing connections are required since all models use an automatic condensate water evaporating system. All designer line models utilize a unique hot gas condensate water evaporating system which is completely self- contained and no further assembly or maintenance is required (these models are recognized by their evaporator coil which is located out of the food zone in an insulated plug-box housing next to the condensing unit).
REMOVAL OF DOORS AND DOOR ADJUSTMENT During installation, it may become necessary to remove the cabinet doors to facilitate passage through narrow doorways or hallways. To remove a door, pry off all hinge covers using a sharp tool or knife (see figure 5). Swing the door to the open-door position (90 degrees) and carefully lift the door upward, removing the door from the hinge bodies.
REMOVAL OF GRILL To remove the grill, loosen all four (4) grill mounting screws located on the backside of the grill one or two turns. Simply lift grill up off of its mounting screws and out. To replace the grill, line up the grill mounting screws with the keyhole slots located on the cabinet body, push in on the grill and down.
START-UP PROCEDURE ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS To insure proper operation, your new model must be connected to an individual circuit that can supply the full voltage as stated on the cabinet serial data plate. For correct voltage, power draw, and wire accommodations, check the data on the serial data plate located on the inner right wall of your new model.
START-UP CHECKLIST After your model has been installed, leveled, cleaned, and electrically connected in accordance with this manual, please take the time before start-up to observe the following precautions to assure troublefree operation: 1. Check that all exposed refrigeration lines are free of severe dents or kinks. 2.
OPERATION All cabinets must be given sufficient time to reach normal operating temperature before placing any food inside. Refrigerators are designed to maintain an ideal cabinet temperature of 38`f to 40`f (3.3`c to 4.4`c) and approximately 2 hours of operation are required to reach this temperature. Standard freezers are designed to maintain an ideal cabinet temperature of -2`f to 0`f (-18.9`c to -17.8`c) and approximately 4 hours of operation are required to reach this temperature.

that many degrees by pressing directly on the mylar display towards the left bottom. Once calibration is complete return to normal temperature mode by pressing once again on the mylar display towards the right center. Now, recheck the calibration. Example: the digital display reads 45`f and the internal thermometer reads 40`f so, the digital display must be increased by 5`.
REFRIGERATOR SYSTEM AND ADJUSTMENT All self-contained value line and designer line refrigerators are designed and factory set to maintain an average cabinet temperature of 38`f. The temperature control is accessible from the top of the electrical console box located on the cabinet top behind the front grill (see figure 6).
FREEZER SYSTEM AND ADJUSTMENT All self-contained value line and designer line standard freezers and low- temperature freezers are designed and factory set to maintain an average cabinet temperature of 0` f and -15`f respectively. All freezers are designed for the purpose of holding pre-frozen food and although they are capable of freezing small quantities of fresh food, they are not to be used as fast or blast freezers.
After defrost, the fan delay control prevents the evaporator fans from operating until the evaporator coil has reached a temperature of 32°f (approximately 20 minutes) thus, minimizing warm air circulation inside the cabinet. Therefore, during initial start-up, and after each defrost cycle, the fans will not turn on immediately. FIGURE 8 DEFROST TIMER SETTING WARMER SYSTEM AND ADJUSTMENT...
EVAPORATOR ASSEMBLY All value line and designer line refrigerators and freezers have an easily accessible, easily serviceable, performance rated, forced-air evaporator assembly which utilizes a plasticized fin coil for extended life. There are two different types of evaporator assembly systems used throughout the value line and designer line models as shown in figures 9 and 10: LOW-PROFILE,CEILING-MOUNT EVAPORATOR ASSEMBLY The low-profile evaporator system is comprised of a generous sized, evenly...
The entire plug system is fully charged with refrigerant and mounted on a steel rail type base which can be easily removed from the cabinet if a field conversion (refrigerator to freezer or vice versa) is desired. Before attempting to remove plug assembly, consult factory.
INTERIOR REACH-IN ACCESSORIES The standard interior accessory package that is supplied from the factory with your new value line and designer line reach-in consists of standard pilaster strips with pilaster clips (four (4)clips per shelf), three (3) epoxy coated shelves per section, and four (4) epoxy coated shelves per section on glass door models only.
OPTIONAL INTERIOR ACCESSORIES In addition to the optional heavy-duty pilaster and clip as shown in figure 11b, aluminum and stainless steel angle pan slides and universal angle pan slides are available and shown in figure 12. Please consult the price list for additional interior and exterior options and accessories available from the factory for your model.
MAINTENANCE PERIODIC CLEANING PROCEDURE It is best to clean your refrigerator or freezer when the product load is at its lowest level inside your cabinet. To clean the interior or exterior cabinet surfaces, the following procedure should be followed: 1.
Performance of the air cooled condensing unit located on the top of your new model, depends exclusively upon the amount of air passing through the condenser fins. Your refrigerator or freezer will run more efficiently, consume less current, and provide a maximum of trouble-free service throughout its lifetime if the condenser is kept clean and an adequate supply of clean, cool air is provided at all times.
If the condenser coil is dirty or blocked, disconnect the power supply to your model and using a stiff brush, brush the dirt from the condenser fins until the condenser is clear from any debris. Using a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment may aid in this cleaning process.
