5. Preparations
5.1. Installation
• Place the unit in an upright position.
• Keep at least 20 cm of open space on the front and rear venting
grids.
• Do not set up the unit in the immediate vicinity of heat sources
and do not expose to sun light.
• Before operating the unit after transport, wait about one hour
after setting it up. This will allow any oil that has accumulated
laterally during transport to flow back down thus ensuring
maximum cooling performance of the compressor.
• Only for water cooled models:
Ensure circulation of cooling water by connecting the tubing to
cooling water inlet and outlet on the rear of the refrigerated
circulator.
Cooling water connectors: ½"
