INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
THIS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION APPLIES TO ALL MODELS OF
DROP-IN AND FREE-STANDING ICE COOLED DISPENSERS.
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
The unit was thoroughly inspected before leaving the factory and the carrier has accepted and signed for it. Any
damage or irregularities should be noted at the time of delivery and immediately reported to the delivery carrier.
Request a written inspection report from Claims Inspector to substantiate any necessary claim.
Claims must be filed with the delivery carrier.
SELECTING A LOCATION
CAUTION: Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to a potable water
supply shall be sized, installed and maintained according to federal, state and local laws.
The dispenser must be located near a permanent drain to route and connect unit ice bin and drip tray drain
hoses. All drains and connections to such drains must meet local plumbing codes.
Units with electrically operated valves must be located near a properly grounded electrical outlet. Circuit should
be fused and no other electrical appliance should be connected to the circuit. ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING
MUST CONFORM TO NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.
INSTALLING THE DISPENSER
Drop-In Dispenser
1. Use the Template supplied to mark the location of the hole to be cut into the counter top. Cut the hole as
marked and remove the material.
2. Apply the double stick tape (if supplied with the loose shipped parts).
Note: To comply with the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) requirements, the unit must be sealed
to the counter top.
3. Liberally apply a sealant, such as Dow Corning RTV 731 or equivalent, to the unit flange bottom surface.
4. Lower the unit into position to complete the seal of the rim to the counter top. Apply additional sealant
around the rim to ensure a complete seal.
Note: Do not move the unit after positioning or the seal will be broken.

C. Continue to activate the dispensing valve in cycles (“ON” for 15-seconds, “OFF”, then “ON” for
15-seconds). Repeat “ON” and “OFF” cycles for 15-cycles.
3. Connect detergent solution to remaining syrup systems and flush syrup out of syrup systems as instructed
in step 2 preceding.
4. Remove detergent solution source from the syrup system.
STEP 2. FLUSH COOLING SYSTEMS
Tank Systems.
1. Connect tank containing potable water, pressurized at 60 to 80-psi, into one of the tubing systems.
Bag-in-Box Syrup System.
2. Fill five-gallon container with potable water, then place all bag-in-box syrup containers syrup outlet tubes in
container containing potable water.
A. Flush detergent solution out of syrup system and dispensing valve as follows:
B. Place waste container under applicable dispensing valve.
C. Activate the dispensing valve for one minute to purge all detergent solution and flush out of the syrup
system.
D. Continue to activate the dispensing valve in cycles (“ON” for 15-seconds, “OFF”, then “ON” for
15-seconds). Repeat “ON” and “OFF” cycles for 15-cycles.
3. Connect potable water source to remaining syrup systems and flush detergent solution out of syrup sys-
tems as instructed in step A preceding.
4. Remove potable water source from the syrup system.
STEP 3. SANITIZE COOLING SYSTEMS
1. Using a clean tank (tanks system) or a five-gallon container (bag-in-box system), prepare sanitizing solu-
tion using 70° F (21° C) to100° F (38° C) potable water and 0.5 oz. (15 ml) of household liquid bleach such
as non-scented Hi-Lex or Chlorox that contains a 5.25 % sodium hypochlorite concentration to one gallon
of potable water.This mixture must not exceed 200 PPM of chlorine. Shake sanitizing solution to thoroughly
mix.
Tank Systems.
A. Connect sanitizing solution tank, pressurized at 60 to 80-psi, into one of the tubing systems.
Bag-in-Box Syrup System.
B. Place all bag-in-box syrup containers syrup outlet tubes in container containing sanitizing solution.
2. Sanitize the syrup system and dispensing valve as follows:
A. Place waste container under applicable dispensing valve.
B. Activate the dispensing valve for one minute to purge all water from and install sanitizing solution in
the syrup system and dispensing valve.
C. Continue to activate the dispensing valve in cycles (“ON” for 15-seconds, “OFF”, then “ON” for
15-seconds). Repeat “ON” and “OFF” cycles for 15-cycles.
3. Repeat steps to flush water out of and install sanitizing solution in the remaining syrup systems and dis-
pensing valves.

4. Remove sanitizing solution source from the syrup system.
5. Allow sanitizing solution to remain in the syrup systems for not less than 10 or no more than 15-minutes
(max.) contact time.
STEP 4. WATER FLUSH SYSTEMS
WARNING: Flush sanitizing solution from the systems as instructed. Residual sanitizing
solution left in the systems could create a health hazard.
1. Fill tank (tank system) or a five-gallon container (bag-in-box system) with potable water.
Tank Systems.
A. Connect tank containing potable water, pressurized at 60 to 80-psi, into one of the systems.
Bag-in-Box Syrup System.
B. Place all bag-in-box syrup containers syrup outlet tubes in container containing potable water.
2. Flush sanitizing solution from the syrup system and the dispensing valve as follows:
A. Place waste container under applicable dispensing valve.
B. Activate the dispensing valve for one minute to purge all sanitizing solution out of the syrup system
and the dispensing valve.
C. Continue to activate the dispensing valve in cycles (“ON” for 15-seconds, “OFF”, then “ON” for
15-seconds). Repeat “ON” and “OFF” cycles for 15-cycles.
3. Repeat preceding steps to purge sanitizing solution out of the remaining syrup systems and
dispensing valves.
4. Remove potable water source from the syrup system.
STEP 5. PURGE WATER (RESTORE OPERATION)
Tank Systems.
1. Noting tanks CO regulator pressure setting observed in step 4 preceding, readjust CO regulator to the

observed pressure setting,
A. Connect tanks containing the product onto the system.
Bag-in-Box Syrup System.
B. Remove all bag valves from bag-in-box syrup containers outlet tubes connectors.
C. Connect bag-in-box syrup containers into the syrup systems.
2. Place waste container under dispensing valves. Dispense from all dispensing valves to permit syrup to
purge all potable water from the syrup systems and the dispensing valves. Continue to dispense from the
dispensing valves until only syrup is dispensed from the syrup systems and valves.
WARNING: To avoid possible personal injury or property damage, do not attempt to
remove the syrup tank cover until CO pressure has been released from the tank.

CLEANING THE ICE BIN
1. Prepare a mild detergent soap solution in 100)F potable water.
2. Using a nylon (not wire) bristle brush, clean the cold plate and the interior of the ice bin with the soap solu-
tion.
3. Rinse the cold plate and interior bin surfaces with clean potable water.
4. Using a mechanical spray bottle, prepare a sanitizing solution according to the manufacturer’s directions
and spray the entire interior bin surfaces. Allow to air dry.
CONNECTING PRODUCT TO THE DISPENSER
Note: All inlet connections are clearly marked with a label adjacent to the inlet connections.
Note: Always leak check all connections.
Post–Mix units must have syrup, carbonated water and plain water connected. The number of syrups will
depend on the number of valves on the dispenser. Refer to the plumbing diagram for details of the hook-
up.
Pre-Mix units must have a pre-mix supply connected to each inlet for each valve to be supplied. Refer to
the plumbing diagram for details of the hook-up.
Note: A plumbing diagram when supplied with the unit, can be found in the dispensing tower.
PREPARING FOR OPERATION
On Units Without Electrically Operated Valves, Skip Steps 1 & 2 Below
1. Plug transformer into electrical outlet. The 24V supply must be connected in the dispensing tower.
2. Turn the key-switch to the ON position. The ice-bin lid must be closed to allow the valves to operate.
3. Adjust the CO regulators as indicated in the following chart:
