Unpacking the Dispenser

Useful instructions for transport

In order to prevent the oil contained in the air-tight compressor from flowing into the cooling circuit, it is necessary to always carry, store and handle the machine in a vertical position, following the instructions found on the packaging.

ATTENTION
DO NOT LAY UNIT ON ITS SIDE OR BACK. If the machine was accidentally or purposely placed in a non-vertical position during transport, before operating the machine, it should be kept in a straight position for approximately 30 minutes, to allow the oil to flow back into the compressor.

Remove cardboard and plastic covering.
Make sure that the machine has not been damaged.
Remove the plastic film from all the stainless steel panels.
Remove accessory kit and loose parts from dispenser.
Before operating, remove the green plastic plug from the tap.

NOTE
Inspect unit for concealed damage. If evident, notify delivering carrier and file a claim against the same.

CAUTION
The packaging material should not be left within reach of children since it is potentially dangerous.

NOTE
To assure that beverage service is accessible to all customers, Lancer recommends that counter height and equipment selection be planned carefully. The 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design states that the maximum reach height from the floor should be no more than 48″ if touch point is less than 10″ from the front of the counter, or a maximum of 46″ if the touch point is more than 10″ and less than 27″ from the front of the counter. For more information about the customer’s legal requirements for the accessibility of installed equipment, refer to 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design – http://www.ada.gov.

Positioning

NOTE
The dispenser should only be installed in a location where it can be overseen by trained personnel.

Place machine on a horizontal and sturdy surface.
For improved ventilation, a minimum of 6 inches (15 cm) of clearance must be maintained around the unit.
Increase the distance if the obstacles are a heating source.
When the dispenser is in place, adjust the legs in order to keep it level.

ATTENTION
Failure to maintain specified clearance will cause the compressor to overheat and will result in compressor failure.

Leveling the Dispenser:
In order to facilitate proper dispenser drainage, ensure that the dispenser is level, front to back and side to side. Place a level on the top of the rear edge of the dispenser. The bubble must settle between the level lines. Repeat this procedure for the remaining three sides. Level unit as necessary. For optimum performance place the unit at a 0° tilt. The maximum tilt is 5°.

Electrical Connection

NOTE
Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, read the following precautions:

Make sure that the machine is properly connected to an efficient grounding system, in compliance with current safety standards.
Make sure that the voltage is in accordance with what is indicated on the “serial number” tag applied on the chassis.
Make sure the current available is sufficient for the maximum required by the machine.
If needed, use only approved multiple outlets, in compliance with current safety standards.

WARNING

The dispenser must be properly electrically grounded to avoid serious injury or fatal electrical shock. The power cord has a three-prong grounded plug. If a threehole grounded electrical outlet is not available, use an approved method to ground the unit. Follow all local electrical codes when making connections. Each dispenser must have a separate electrical circuit. Do not use extension cords. Do not connect multiple electrical devices on the same outlet.
