Optional CO
2
tank external mounting bracket:
Many options are available for mounting the CO
2
tank out-
side of the beer dispenser to gain additional cold storage
space inside.
Secure the optional external mounting bracket on the
back of the beer dispenser (this is ideal for mobile
units) or mount within adjacent cabinetry (ideal for
undercounter built-in units:
Mount the (4) screws (#10-32 x
3
⁄
4
" flathead machine
screws) provided with the bracket in the rear of the appli-
ance, see Figure 34. Do not completely tighten. Place the
keyhole slots in the flanges of the bracket over the four
screws and tighten them to secure the bracket to the back
of the cabinet. The bracket can also be fastened to adja-
cent cabinetry using the provided #10 x
3
⁄
4
" wood screws.
Mark the hole locations where required using a pencil and
the slots in the mounting bracket. Drill appropriate pilot
holes (depending on the material you are mounting to) and
secure the bracket per the above instructions.
Consider the length of the red air line when choosing a
place for the CO
2
tank. The red air line supplied is 4 feet
(1.2 meters) long.
With the gauges mounted to the CO
2
tank place the tank in
the mounting bracket.
Remove the foam plug from the hole port as shown in Fig-
ure 34, and feed the red CO
2
line(s) through the rear wall
and out the coil cover on the inside of the cabinet. Connect
the red CO
2
line to the keg coupler.
Reseal the hole in the back of the cabinet with the foam
plug. See Figure 35. The foam plug may have to be cut to
reseal the hole.
NOTE
The optional mounting bracket is designed to hold the 5#
CO
2
cylinder that comes with the beer dispenser. Larger
cylinders may be purchased from a third party and mounted
externally. Use the hole port on the rear of the cabinet to
run the CO
2
line to the keg.
