Welcome to Follett
Follett ® ice storage bins enjoy a well-deserved reputation for excellent performance, long-term reliability and
outstanding after-the-sale support. To ensure that this slope front bin delivers the same degree of service, we ask
that you take a moment to review this manual before beginning the installation of the bin. Should you have any
questions or require technical help at any point, please call our technical service group, +1 (877) 612-5086 (US
and Canada only) or +1 (610) 252-7301 (Worldwide) or +48 (58) 785-6140 (Europe and Middle East only).

Before you begin
After uncrating and removing all packing material, inspect the equipment for concealed shipping damage. If
damage is found, notify the shipper immediately and contact Follett Corporation so that we can help in the filing of
a claim, if necessary.

Important cautions
Avoid excessive tightening force when connecting to the bin drain fitting.
Do not apply excessive heat if any sweating of fittings is necessary. Heat conduction through metal may
melt threads in plastic drain fitting.
