INSTALLATION OF DISPENSING EQUIPMENT
Open the tapping kit box and become familiar with its
components. If the dispensing head is going to be mounted on
a counter top directly above the refrigerated cabinet, have the
counter top pre-drilled using the supplied template on page 11.
Make sure that the access hole in the refrigerated cabinet is in
line with the counter top holes. Remove any obstrucons from
the access hole of the refrigerator.
Follow instrucons on pages 4 through 10 to properly install
the tapping equipment on your perlick unit, or watch our Beer
Dispenser Tapping Installaon video. Informaon on how to
access this video can be found to the right.

your browser window: hp://youtu.be/NCKP6x2zZmo
NOTE: Wash tapping devices thoroughly.
Flush beer and faucet lines, as well as the
tapping device (keg coupler) with fresh
water.
IF YOU ARE INSTALLING A DRAFT ARM - SKIP TO PAGE 6. THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS
ARE ADDITIONAL PREPARATION STEPS FOR THE ADARA DISPENSING HEAD ONLY
1. Mark the air tube for correct length dependent upon your installaon scenario. If installing directly on top of the refrigerated
cabinet, make a mark 5 inches from the boom of the tower (Figure 1). If installing directly on top of a countertop, add the
depth of the countertop to the original 5 inches and mark at that new dimension (Figure 2).
Figure 1. Figure 2.
