®
of Taylor equipment.

To the Installer
WARNING! This machine has many sharp
edges that can cause severe injuries.

Site Preparation

Review the area the machine is to be installed in before
uncrating the machine, making sure that all possible
hazards to the user or machine have been addressed.

Air-Cooled Machine

Air-cooled machines require a minimum of 3 in. (76 mm)
of clearance on both sides of the freezer. It is
recommended to place the rear of the machine against
the wall to prevent the recirculation of warm air. Minimum
air clearances must be met to ensure adequate airflow
for optimum performance. Failure to allow adequate
clearance can reduce the refrigeration capacity of the
freezer and possibly cause permanent damage to the
compressor.
For Indoor Use Only: This machine is designed to
operate indoors under normal ambient temperatures of
70°F to 75°F (21°C to 24°C). The freezer has
successfully performed in high ambient temperatures of
104°F (40°C) at reduced capacities.
WARNING! This machine must NOT be
installed in an area where a water jet or hose can be
used. NEVER use a water jet or hose to rinse or clean
the machine. Failure to follow this instruction may result
in electrocution.
CAUTION! This machine must be installed on
a level surface to avoid the hazard of tipping. Extreme
care should be taken in moving this equipment for any
reason. Two or more persons are required to safely move
this machine. Failure to comply may result in personal
injury or equipment damage.
Uncrate the machine and inspect it for damage. Report
any damage to your Taylor distributor.
