Important Safety Message for Draft Beer
Dispensing
When CO is used for draft beer dispensing, the system
2
must be adequately protected against excessive pressure
build-up. This is accomplished by the already installed two
safety devices with adequate relief capacity in the system.
Safety devices are installed in the following places:
A. On or immediately downstream from the CO
B. On the keg coupler
Proper Air Circulation
• To assure your beer dispenser works at the maximum
efficiency it was designed for, you should install it in a
location where there is proper air circulation, plumbing
and electrical connections.
• The following are recommended clearances around the
beer dispenser:
Sides 3/4" (19mm)
Back 2" (50mm)
Lift Upright
Beer Keg

• For proper keg cooling, DO NOT put anything in the
refrigerator cabinet other than the keg. Placing ice bags,
beverage cans or food in the open spaces around the
keg will interfere with air circulation inside the cabinet
and reduce cooling effectiveness.
Electrical Requirement
• Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 60
hz) with proper grounding to power the beer dispenser.
• Avoid the use of 3-Prong adapter plugs or cutting off the
grounding prong in order to accommodate a 2-prong
outlet.
Use of Extension Cord
• Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential
safety hazards under certain conditions. If it is necessary
to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension
cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot
outlet that will accept the plug. The marked rating of the
extension cord must be equal to or greater than the elec-
trical rating of the appliance.
Installation Limitations
• Do not install your beer dispenser in any location not
properly insulated or heated e.g. garage etc. Your beer
dispenser was not designed to operate in surrounding
temperatures below 55˚ Fahrenheit.
• Select a suitable location for the beer dispenser on a
hard, even surface away from direct sunlight or heat
source e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking
appliances etc.
• Your beer dispenser is designed for free-standing
installation only. It is not designed for built-in application.

Cooler Application
For your convenience, this beer dispenser can be converted
