WARNING

Read entire manual for important

safety information before using

your OLYMPUS Kegerator. Failure to

follow warnings could result in

serious injury or death.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

•When kegerator is installed or used, all packaging (including carton and

plastic wrap) should be removed.

•Keep kegerator stable to avoid vibration and noise.

•The kegerator should be installed in a place with good ventilation and a space

of at least 4" between surrounding walls and the cabinet wall for air circulation.

Installation without proper ventilation will void the manufacturer's warranty.

•Kegerator should be placed far from any heating source to avoid decrease of

refrigeration eciency.

•Install the kegerator in a dry place to prevent rust from forming on the

compartment body, which may aect the electrical insulation.

•Avoid collisions and strong vibrations when transporting. Avoid resting the

cabinet at more than a 45° angle.

•Please refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual when your

kegerator has operation issues. DO NOT attempt to solve the problem on

your own. Please refer to a certiﬁed technician only.

•If the power cuts o, wait for at least 5 minutes before turning on the unit

again to avoid damage to the compressor.

•Do Not climb, stand or hang on the shelves of the kegerator.

•Setting the temperature controls to the 0 (zero) position does not remove

power to the light circuit, perimeter heaters or evaporator fans.

•When lifting the kegerator do not use the countertop as a lifting point.

•Leave kegerator upright for 24 hours before plugging into power source.

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

Failure to follow these warnings could result in electrical

shock resulting in serious injury or death.

When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions must be followed:

•This cooler must be properly installed and located in accordance with the

installation instructions before use.

•In case of damage to the electrical cord and plug, contact an electrician to

repair. Never repair the electrical cord or plug yourself.

•When unplugging unit, grasp by the plug, not the cord.

•If the voltage is unstable, please select a suitable automatic voltage regulator.

•The kegerator must be grounded correctly. Individual single-phase socket

must be used. It should be reliably connected to a grounding wire. DO NOT

connect grounding wire to water or gas pipe.

•Unplug the unit from the electrical outlet before cleaning or making repairs.

•Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the grounding prong from

the power cord.

•Appliance must be properly grounded at all times.

•Never use an adapter plug.

•Compressor warranties are voided if compressor burns out due to low

voltage.

local regulations. Flammable refrigerant used.

•Risk of ﬁre or explosion due to puncture of refrigerant tubing; follow handling

instructions carefully. Flammable refrigerant used.

•Keep clear of obstruction all ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure

or in the structure for building-in.

•Servicing shall be done by an authorized refrigeration service, to minimize the

risk of possible ignition due to incorrect parts or improper service.

•Remove all packaging for bottom heat radiation to avoid ﬁre.

•Do Not store or use gasoline or other ﬂammable vapors and liquids in the

vicinity of this or any other appliance.

•Never store ﬂammable, explosive or corrosive liquid or gas in or near the kegerator.

PROPER DISPOSAL OF EQUIPMENT

DANGER! RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT.

When disposing of a kegerator, please follow the instructions below to eliminate

the risk of child entrapment.

1. Remove the doors.

2. Leave shelves in place to prevent children from easily climbing inside.

REFRIGERANT DISPOSAL

Your old kegerator/refrigerator may have a cooling system that used "ozone

depleting" chemicals. If you are throwing away your old kegerator/refrigerator,

be sure the refrigerant is removed for proper disposal by a qualiﬁed service

technician. If you intentionally release any refrigerants you can be subject to

ﬁnes and more under the provisions of environmental regulations.

Failure to follow these warnings could result in serious injury or death.

Failure to follow the precautions could result in equipment failure and the warranty being void.

Please read this entire instruction manual for important safety information prior to the use of your

Kegerator.

SET UP & INSTALLATION

INITIAL SET UP

Tools Required: Phillips head screwdriver

1. Use your Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws from the

four brackets connecting the kegerator to the wood pallet.

2. Next remove the L-brackets from the kegerator.

3. Remove wood pallet by unscrewing all base rail anchor brackets.

Place pallet to the side.

4.Carefully upright kegerator. IMPORTANT: When lifting the

kegertaor do not use the countertop as a lifting point.

5. Set unit in its ﬁnal location. Make sure there is adequate ventilation

in this location. Under extreme heat conditions (+100°F/ +36°C)

an exhaust fan may be necessary.

6.Proper leveling of the unit is critical to operating success (for non-

mobile models). Eective condensate removal and door operation

will be aected by leveling.

7. Level kegerator front to back and side to side with a level.

ELECTRICAL SET UP

We strongly recommend servicing be performed by a professional

refrigerator technician.

NOTE: A wiring diagram can be referenced by removing the front louvered

grill, and looking on the inside cabinet wall.

•The power cord for the kegerator is equipped with a grounding plug

which mates with a standard grounding wall outlet to minimize the

possibility of electri c shock hazard.

•If the outlet is a standard 2-prong outlet, it must be replaced with

a properly grounded wall outlet. NEVER USE AN ADAPTER

PLUG.

•Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualiﬁed electrician

to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. Check incoming

voltage with a voltmeter. If the results are anything less than

100% of the rated voltage for operation it must be corrected

immediately.

•DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS. The use of extension

cords to connect the kegerator will void the warranty. The

kegerator must be close enough to the electrical supply (outlet)

so extension cords are never used.

•The kegerator should always be plugged into its own dedicated

circuit with a voltage rating that matches the rating plate. This

provides the best performance and also prevents overloading

wiring circuits which could become a ﬁre hazard from overheating

wires.

•Never unplug the kegerator from the cord. Always grip the plug

ﬁrmly and pull straight out from outlet.

•Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become

frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a power cord that has

cracks or abrasions damage along it or at either of its ends.

•When removing the kegerator away from the wall be careful not to

damage the power cord.

SEALING KEGERATOR TO FLOOR

•Keep clear of obstruction all ventilation openings in the appliance enclosure or in the

structure for building-in.

NOTE: Asphalt ﬂoors are susceptible to chemical attack. A layer of

tape on the ﬂoor prior to applying sealant will protect the ﬂoor.

STEP ONE  Position Kegerator

Allow 1" between the wall and the rear of refrigerated bar equipment

to assure proper ventilation.

STEP TWO  Level Kegerator

Kegerator should be level side to side and front to back . Place a

carpenters level in the interior cabinet ﬂoor in four places:

A. Position level on the inside ﬂoor of unit near the door. Level

should be placed parallel to cabinet front.

B. Position level at the inside rear of the cabinet. Level should be

placed parallel to cabinet back.

C. Position similar procedures steps A and B by placing the level

on the inside ﬂoor left and right sides parallel to the depth of the

kegerator. Level cabinet.

STEP THREE  Applying Sealant

•Draw and outline on the base of the ﬂoor.

•Raise and block the front side of the kegerator.

•Apply a bead of NSF approved sealant (see list below) to ﬂoor half

an inch inside the outline drawn on ﬂoor. The bead must be heavy

enough to seal the entire kegerator surface when it is set down on

the sealant.

•Raise and block the rear of the kegerator.

•Apply sealant on the ﬂoor as outlined above on the 3 sides.

•Examine to see that the kegerator is sealed to the ﬂoor around

entire perimeter.

NSF Approved Sealants:

•Minnesota Mining #ECU800 Caulk

•Minnesota Mining #ECU2185 Caulk

•Minnesota Mining #ECU1055 Bead

•Minnesota Mining #ECU1202 Bead

•Armstrong Cork - Rubber Caulk

•Products Research Co #5000 Rubber Caulk

•GE Silicone Sealer

•Dow Corning Silicone Sealer

Failure to follow the precautions could result in equipment failure and the warranty being void.

The process is the same for the single, double, and triple faucet tower. For the quad faucet tower, see the following page.

TIP: If setting up a triple faucet tower, start with the lowest faucet.

1. Set the tower's collar sleeve onto tower.

2. Feed the beverage line tubing up through the bottom of the tower so tubing comes out both the top and the bottom of the

tower.

3. Attach the Duotight ﬁtting to the beverage line coming from the top end of the tower. Feed the Duotight ﬁtting and tubing

through the tap hole. To attach the Duotight ﬁtting, push the ﬁtting onto the tubing then pull back slightly to lock in place.

NOTE: repeat this step for each additional faucet your tower has.

4. Locate the tower shank and remove the nut and white convex collar and set them aside. From the outside of the tower, attach

the Duotight ﬁtting to the tower shank. Slide the shank and tubing into the faucet hole.

5. Turn the tower upside down. Slip the white convex collar and shank nut onto the beverage line with the white convex collar ﬁrst

and the shank nut second.

6. Using your ﬁnger to hold the tower shank in place, align shank with convex collar ﬁrst and then the shank nut and tighten by

hand.

7. Next tighten the shank nut with the included multipurpose wrench.

8. Attach the faucet to the shank; tighten with the included multipurpose wrench. Attach the tap handle and tower cap.

ASSEMBLE QUAD TOWER

TIP: When attaching faucets, start with the lower faucets ﬁrst.

1. Attach the tower to the kegerator with the included screws. The quad

tap tower mounting holes are located on the inside of the tower, and

it does not include a tower collar like the 1-3 tap towers. You may

need an extra-long Philips screwdriver or bit extension driver to more

easily reach the mounting holes.

2. Attach the tower shanks starting with the lower left hole location.

Remove the nut and white convex collar from the shank. Attach the

Duotight ﬁtting to the tailpiece and then attach one of the precut

lengths of beverage line to the Duotight ﬁtting. Push the tubing into

the Duotight ﬁtting and then pull back slightly to lock in place.

3. Feed the line through the tap hole and then slip the white convex

collar and shank nut onto the beverage line with the white convex

collar ﬁrst and the shank nut second.

4. Pull the line through until the shank meets the tower, then align the

white convex collar on the inside of the tower and secure in place with

the shank nut. Feed the line down through the tower and into the

kegerator.

5. Next tighten the shank nut with the included multipurpose wrench.

Repeat steps 1-5 for the remaining tower shank locations, starting

with the lower right hole location and working upwards.

6. Attach the faucets to the shanks; tighten with the included

multipurpose wrench. Attach the tap handles and tower cap.

ATTACHING THE TOWER

Tools Required: Phillips head screwdriver

Now that you have your tower or towers set up it's time to attach your tower and install the cooling hose.

1. For one, two and three tap towers, place tower gasket on top of kegerator and align with predrilled holes for tower. For quad

tap tower align holes on bottom of the tower with predrilled holes for tower.

2. Align holes on tower with the holes on top of kegerator. For one, two and three tap towers lift collar sleeve to reveal screw

holes.

3. Using a phillips head screwdriver, position screws into each hole and tighten.

4. Inside the kegerator, locate tower cooling hose on the left side of the cabinet & cooling hole at the top of the cabinet.

5. Push the tower(s) cooling hose into cooling hole. To cool the tower eectively, make sure the cooling hose reaches the top of

the tower.

INSTALLING CO2LINES

Required: • Pliers • Hand Drill • Silicone Sealer

1. Choose which CO2port works for your setup, 1 or 2.

2. Remove plug from port on the right wall with a pair of pliers.

3. Drill and bore a hole through the wall.

4.Insert gas line through drilled hole.

5. Seal hole around CO2line with silicone sealer to prevent leaks.

CONNECT CO2

REGULATOR TO TANK:

1. Remove barbed tail piece from the regulator

and replace with included Duotight push

ﬁtting. Push gas line into Duotight ﬁtting.

(See Photo To The Right)

2. Attach the regulator to the tank using a

multipurpose draft wrench. Tighten ﬁrmly,

but be careful not to over tighten.

3. NOTE: there must be a regulator gasket

between the regulator and tank. Some

regulators come with a gasket already

attached to the regulator.

CONNECTING THE BEER

LINE AND GAS TUBING:

Tools Required: • Wrench

Your Kegerator includes very high-quality

EVABarrier tubing that is designed to work

best with Duotight connectors. Compared to

standard PVC tubing, EVABarrier is a double-

lined tubing that is BPA free and greatly reduces

CO2loss. It can be used with traditional barb

ﬁttings, but because of the double layer, it is

more dicult to ﬁt over barbs.

CO2Gas Tubing (Larger inner diameter

tubing)

The length of your gas tubing won’t aect

serving the beer. Extra gas line is included to

accommodate dierent setups. We suggest

you cut to length for your set ups or roll up

the extra and zip tie it. If you have a 2, 3 or

4 faucet tower you will need to cut your gas

line and install the Duotight tees to split the

gas line.

Beer Line (Smaller inner diameter tubing)

Beer line/tubing is more than just a way to

get your beer from the keg to your glass. It

works as a ﬂow restrictor, and when properly

sized it will ensure your beer is served just

right. Note that having the correct beer line

internal dimension, length, CO2pressure, and

beer temperature is critical to serving your

beer properly.

Attaching Duotight Fittings To Couplers Or

Quick Disconnects:

Attach the correct Duotight ﬁttings to the

keg coupler or quick disconnects you are

using. Duotight ﬁttings should be threaded on

as tight as possible by hand and then turned

an additional 180 degrees with a wrench. For

pictures of additional styles of couplers or

quick disconnects see page 7.

If Using Stepless Clamps:

Tools Required • Pinch Clamp pliers or Wire

Cutter Pliers • Needle-nose Pliers

If you did not purchase Duotight ﬁttings

and have couplers or quick disconnects with

traditional barbs, you may use stepless clamps

for a tight seal. Because EVABarrier tubing is

an advanced two layer tubing it is dicult to

ﬁt over barbs. Follow these steps:

1. Boil a cup of water and dip the end of

tubing for 15 seconds to soften.

2. Place stepless clamp onto tubing.

3. Insert needle-nose pliers into tubing and

expand the pliers to increase size of the

opening.

4.Push tubing onto the barb ﬁtting and

crimp the clamp securely with pinch

clamp pliers or wire cutter pliers.

CRITICAL FINAL STEP 

CO2 PRESSURE CHECK:

hoses are properly sealed so there are no CO2leaks in the system.

Pressure leaks need to be ﬁxed ASAP because if left unchecked, they

will cause the CO2tank to drain, which can be potentially dangerous

if located in a closed area. Testing is relatively straightforward:

Once your system is fully set up:

1. Open the CO2tank valve.

2. Turn up the pressure through the regulator to 20 PSI.

3. Turn o the CO2tank valve.

4.Wait a couple hours then check the pressure on the regulator.

If it has not dropped, then there are no leaks. Release the pressure

and reset the regulator to your desired serving pressure.

If there was a drop in pressure, then spray/wipe soapy water on all the

points where there may be a leak. Such as:

All tubing connections.

•Where the regulator attaches to the CO2tank.

When gas escapes and hits the soapy water it will create bubbles.

Wherever you ﬁnd these bubbles tighten the connection.

HOMEBREW DISCONNECTS FOR CORNY/SODA KEGS:

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Condensers accumulate dirt and dust and require cleaning every 30

days. Dirty condensers result in compressor failure, product loss, and

lost sales, which are not covered by warranty.

Air is pulled through the condenser continuously along with dust,

lint grease, etc. If you keep the condenser clean you will minimize

your services expenses and lower your electrical cost. The condenser

requires scheduled cleaning every 30 days or as needed. A dirty

condenser can result in non-warranted part and compressor failures

and product loss.

Proper cleaning involves removing debris from the condenser by

using a soft brush or vacuuming the condenser with a shop vac or

using CO2, nitrogen or pressurized air.

If you cannot remove the debris adequately please call a refrigeration

service company.

The condenser is accessible at the rear of the unit. You will need to

remove the front grill to reach the condenser. The condenser looks

like a group of vertical ﬁns. You will need to be able to see through

the condenser for the unit to function at maximum capacity. Do not

place ﬁlter material in front of condensing coil. This material blocks

ﬂow to the coil.

CLEANING THE CONDENSER COIL

Tools Required:

•Phillips head screwdriver

•Sti bristle brush

•Adjustable wrench

When using electrical appliances basic safety precautions should be

followed.

•Disconnect power to kegerator.

•Take o lower grill assembly by removing all screws.

•Remove bolts anchoring compressor assembly to frame rails and

carefully slide out... tube connections are ﬂexible.

•Clean o accumulated dirt from condensing coil with sti bristle

brush.

•Lift cardboard cover above fan at plastic plug and carefully clean

condenser coil and fan blades.

•After brushing condenser coils, vacuum dirt from coil and interior

ﬂoor.

•Replace cardboard cover, carefully slide compressor assembly

back into position and replace bolts.

•Reinstall louver assembly onto kegerator with appropriate fasteners

and clips. Tighten all screws.

•Connect kegerator to power and check to make sure condenser is

running.

CLEANING STAINLESS

•CAUTION: DO NOT USE any steel wool, abrasive or chlorine

based products to clean stainless steel surface.

•Use a soft cloth or plastic scouring pad with an approved stainless

cleaner.

BEER LINE CLEANING

Always clean your commercial home tap setup

between every keg use. Cleaning your system

will ensure that your tap, lines, and faucet

are clean, resulting in a better-tasting beer.

Required:

•Cleaning Pump

•Faucet Wrench

•Beer Line Cleaner

•Tap & Faucet Brush

•Water

•Collection Bucket

•Large Bowl

1. Remove the tap from the keg. Use

the wrench provided to remove

the faucet (the piece that the beer

actually ﬂows through to your glass)

from the shank. The collar should

have a few holes in it, insert the wrench

end into a hole and spin the collar clockwise to remove it.

2. Disassemble the faucet to the point that the shaft inside can slide

out. Place these parts in a bowl with 2 cups of warm water and ¼

teaspoon of Beer Line Cleaner. Take the lid o of the cleaner pump

and remove the O-Ring. Use this O-Ring to attach the brass end

of the pump unit into the collar of the shank (hand tighten). Put

one cap-full of cleaner into the jar and ﬁll with warm water. Attach

the lid unit back on the jar. Get a bucket to collect the ﬂuid running

from the tap, the tap will not allow beer to backlash. Insert the

cleaning brush’s small end into the bottom of the tap to allow the

ﬂow to go through.

3. Pump cleaning solution through the line and tap allowing the

solution to sit in the lines for 10–15 minutes, then pump through.

Follow this with 1–2 jars of water to rinse. Remove the brush from

the tap.

4.Use the brush to clean the faucet, then rinse with water.

Reassemble the faucet, hand tighten parts, and leave them loose

enough so that they move freely. Attach the faucet back onto the

shank again, using the wrench, do not over tighten, just tighten

enough so that it does not leak.

5. Attach tap to new keg & enjoy!!

TROUBLESHOOTING

Kegerator does not turn on Check circuit breaker, fuse and power socket.

Kegerator does not seem cold enough

Check temperature setting by placing a cup of water with

a thermometer inside the fridge. Check after 2 hours &

compare against set kegerator temperature. Kegerator

may need to cool longer or the door gasket may not be

sealing correctly.

Kegerator shuts o/on too often

Check to see if the door gasket is sealing correctly. The

ambient room temperature may be too high so the unit is

working harder to cool to the set temperature.

Kegerator seems to make too much noise

Humming is normal. Gurgling sounds are caused by

cooling liquid used by the kegerator. Check to make sure

unit is level.
