ELECTRICAL
INFORMATION
These guidelines must be followed to ensure that
safety mechanisms in the design of this beer
dispenser will operate properly.
•
Refer to the serial plate for correct electrical
rating.
The power cord of the appliance is equipped
with a three-prong grounding plug for your protection
against shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into a
properly grounded three-prong receptacle, protected with
a 15 amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. The
receptacle must be installed in accordance with local
codes and ordinances. Consult a qualified electrician.
Receptacles protected by Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters
(GFCI) are NOT RECOMMENDED.
Do not use an
extension cord or adapter plug.
•
If voltage varies by 10% or more, beer dispenser
performance may be affected. Operating a beer
dispenser with insufficient power can damage the motor.
Such damage is not covered under the warranty. If you
suspect your household voltage is high or low, consult
your power company for testing.
•
To prevent the beer dispenser from being turned off
accidentally, do not plug unit into an outlet controlled by
a wall switch or pull cord.
•
Do not pinch, knot, or bend the cord in any manner.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS
•
Never unplug the beer dispenser by pulling on the cord.
Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight out from the
receptacle.
1. CO
2
gas can be dangerous! CO
2
cylinders contain
high-pressure compressed gas, which can be
hazardous if not handled properly. Make sure you read
and understand all the procedures for the CO
2
cylinders before installation.
2. Always connect the CO
2
cylinder to a regulator!
Failure to do so may cause an explosion resulting in
possible death or injury when the cylinder valve is
opened.
3. Never connect the CO
2
cylinder directly to the product
container.
4. Always follow the correct procedures when changing
cylinders. (see page 10)
5. Never drop or throw a CO
2
cylinder.
6. Always keep CO
2
cylinders away from heat. Store extra
cylinders in a cool place (preferably 70˚ F). Securely
fasten with a chain in an upright position when storing.
7. Always ventilate and leave the area immediately if CO
2
leakage has occurred!
8. Always check the D.O.T. (Department of Transport) test
date on the cylinder neck before installation. If it has
been over 5 years, do not use. Return the
cylinder to your gas supplier.
9. Never connect a product container unless there are at
least two safety devices in the pressure system; one on
the CO
2
regulator and the other on the product
container or in the pressure gas line.
