as it may damage the threads.  
Placing the Cabinet  
NOTE: The end of the CO2 line extends through a  
sleeve on the side of the cabinet in the  
machinery compartment. Connect this  
line to the pressure supply with a hose  
and fitting.  
Push the cabinet into place using rollers when  
necessary. Important: Proper air flow around the  
condensing unit is necessary for efficient operation.  
Never obstruct the air flow in and out of the  
condensing unit.  
Electrical  
Leveling the Cabinet  
The cabinet must be connected to a separately  
fused power source (see electrical specification  
plate) and grounded in accordance with National  
and Local Electrical Codes. Caution: Do not  
attempt to operate the equipment on any other  
power source than that listed on the Electrical  
Specification plate.  
When the cabinet is in place, check installation with  
a carpenter’s level. A slight pitch to the drain side is  
desired. Water may accumulate if the cabinet is  
pitched to the opposite side.  
Installing Casters or Legs (Optional)  
Attach casters to the cabinet bottom in the holes  
provided. Use supplied 1/4”- 20 x 3/4” hex head  
self-tapping machine screws. Use power driver if  
available.  
WARNING!  
To avoid compressor damage,after returning  
cabinet to an upright position, let unit stand for  
24 hours before plugging it in and running the unit.  
Installing the Faucet and  
Dispensing Head  
Before you begin: Wash tapping devices and  
faucet. Flush beer, tapping device and faucet lines  
with fresh water.

Draft Beer Information – Direct Draw Dispensers Self-Contained  
Temperature  
At temperatures lower than 30° F., beer will freeze.  
When beer freezes, the alcohol in the beer may  
separate and cause the beer to be cloudy with an  
“off” taste.  
One of the most common causes of dispensing  
problems is improper temperature. Draft beer  
should be stored at a temperature between 32° and  
38°. At warmer temperatures, beer will foam.  
Refrigeration and Temperature Control  
Adjusting the temperature  
The Direct Draw Dispenser is equipped with a  
heavy-duty refrigeration system designed to  
automatically maintain a storage temperature of  
36-41 degrees F. The control is factory set at 38  
degrees F.  
The temperature control is inside the cabinet on  
the right-hand side of the evaporator fan panel  
assembly. You will need a screwdriver to turn the  
adjusting screw. Make small adjustments until the  
desired temperature is achieved.  
Colder Temperatures:  
Turn the adjusting screw clockwise (to the right).  
Warmer Temperatures:  
Turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise  
(to the left).

The condenser fan motor turns off and on with the  
condensing unit. The evaporator fan motor runs  
continuously. The fan motors are lifetime lubricated  
and will require no oiling.

for proper defrosting of the evaporator coil. If  
defrosting is necessary, turn the control knob to the

Cleaning the Beer System – Direct Draw Dispensers Self-Contained  
I
The entire beer system, to include the faucet, flexible  
beer line and tapping devices must be cleaned at  
regular intervals. We recommend flushing the entire  
system with fresh water immediately after a keg has  
been emptied. Once each month the system should  
be cleaned chemically.  
Beer Stone:  
All beer contains calcium which is present from  
the grains used in the brewing process. it is an  
important natural material in draft systems in  
that as it oxidizes it coats the internal parts of  
the beer lines and equipment. This thin coat of  
beer stone helps prevent the beer from picking  
up strong metallic or plastic flavors as it flows  
through the system. The beer stone will  
continue to build if the system is not cleaned  
properly or regularly and can cause drawing  
problems if it begins to flake off. Beer stone is  
present if one can see a brownish color on the  
faucet or inner wall of the beer line, or tobacco-  
like flakes in the beer.  
It is recommended that you purchase Perlick’s  
Pump Type Cleaning Kit. It is equipped with an  
adapter that attaches directly to the faucet shank,  
jar with pump, cleaning solution, faucet brush and  
spanner wrench.  
Cleaning the draft beer system will help to  
eliminate the buildup of the following materials:  
IIII Bacteria:  
Beer is an excellent food for bacteria (none of  
which is harmful). Proper conditions may begin  
the growth of bacteria in draft beer and on the  
beer faucet. By regular cleaning, we prevent  
this bacterial buildup and maintain the quality  
of the draft beer. Greenish or yellowish colored  
material on the faucet may indicate bacterial  
growth.  
Cleaning the Cabinet  
Use a mild detergent and water to clean the inside  
and outside of the cabinet. Dry thoroughly. Never  
use a scouring pad or abrasive cleanser.  
NOTE: An industrial strength, commercial cleaner  
can be used to clean the outside of painted  
cabinets.  
I
Yeast:  
All domestic draft beers contain a small amount  
of yeast which remains in the beer from the  
fermentation process. When the temperature of  
draft beer exceeds 50° a process of secondary  
fermentation may take place. The beer faucet  
may exhibit a white colored substance (yeast  
build up) if not cleaned on a regular basis.  
Cleaning the Condenser  
Use a long handled, stiff brush to clean the dirt from  
the front surface of the condenser. Keeping the  
condenser free from dust and dirt will ensure effi-  
cient operation.  
CAUTION: Do not bend the fins while brushing the  
front of the condenser.

Pouring a Perfect Glass of Beer – Direct Draw Dispensers  
STEP 1  
Start with a clean glass.  
Place the glass at a  
45° angle, one inch  
below faucet. Do not  
let the glass touch the  
faucet. Open the faucet  
all the way.  
STEP 2  
After the glass has  
reached half full,  
gradually bring the  
glass to the upright  
position  
STEP 3  
Let the remaining beer  
run straight down the  
middle of the glass.  
This ensures proper  
release of CO2 by  
producing a 34to 1”  
foam head.  
STEP 4  
Close the faucet quickly  
and completely.

long period of time.  
Faucet is bad, dirty or in a worn condition.  
Regulator malfunction.  
Beer foam is 25% liquid beer and 75% CO2  
gas. Don’t waste it!  
Most people prefer beer stored at 38° F.  
Beer lines and faucets require regular cleaning  
(see cleaning instructions on page 7).  
A fully-charged 4.2 lb. CO2 cylinder will  
dispense approximately 512 to 612 half barrels.  
CO2 gas gives beer its sparkling effervescence.  
It also gives beer its creamy head of foam.  
Flat Beer:  
Foamy head disappears quickly; beer lacks  
brewery fresh flavor.  
CAUSES:  
Dirty glassware.  
CO2 pressure is too low, due to leak or  
pressure setting.  
CO2 is turned off at night.  
Cooler is too cold.  
CO2 leak or defective (sticking)  
check valve.  
Sluggish CO2 regulator.
