Introduction
Guide to the Convenient Store Cooler
The largest profit center in your store is the beverage cooler. It is also unfortunately one of the most
difficult areas to manage due to the constant movement of product and physical conditions. These
conditions are conducive to back-related injuries which account for 24% of all insurance claims in the
convenience store industry.

Since the beverage cooler is such an important area, and yet so troublesome, a new system needed to
be implemented, resulting in the creation of the ADCO System. This is a comprehensive program that
mobilizes and organizes the hardest place to work in your store. After unleashing your “mules”, you
will immediately notice these benefits.
• You and your employees are spending less time in the cooler.
• You are rolling heavy cases instead of lifting them.
• Your vendors start placing their delivery on the Mules.
• Your floor is easier to clean.
• Your displays are easier to move and are more attractive.
• You are now compliant with the health department rules and regulations.
This guide will show you how to work in your cooler more efficiently, and be safer at the same time.
You will also learn how to maximize all your space and how to prevent deductions from the health
department. Assembly instructions to certain components are also enclosed.
Why This Guide?
Along with making the cooler an easier and safer place to work, we also wanted to make you aware
that local and county health departments consider the convenience store inspection process one of the
prime enforcement tools. During 2014, health departments conducted over 50,000 inspections of
convenient stores and coolers (approximately 1/3 of registered convenience stores in the U.S., which
totaled 152,282). Clearly this is an important way of determining whether or not your store is in
compliance with health department laws and regulations. Many of the regulatory actions these departments
impose against convenient stores are based in findings during inspections.
Teamwork is essential to success in this area from top management, store managers, employees, and
vendors. But a good team is only as good as their game plan, and this plan is a winner. This guide will
serve as your playbook, to help your team tackle an old job with a new approach.
What is the Health Inspector Looking For?
TEMPERATURE
The first item on their list is to insure that all your perishable foods are of proper temperature.........and they bring their own
thermometer.
CLEANLINESS
Is the cooler floor sticky? Is there trash on the floor? Any exposed foods laying around? And yes, they are also looking for the
dreaded insect and rodent signs.
EQUIPMENT CONDITION
How are the door gaskets? Any of the shelving rusty or peeling? Using cardboard for shelf liners that breed mold?
Any leaks in the refrigeration units?
Also, adequate lighting must be
provided for cleaning and
inspection of cooler.
Proper Lifting Techniques
Lifting Basics
Techniques For Safe Lifting
Safe lifting means keeping your back aligned while you lift, maintaining your center of
balance and letting the strong muscles in your legs do the actual lifting. By using the following
techniques you can learn how to lift safely and save your back
from accidental strain and injury.
1.Bend Your Knees
Bend your knees, not your waist. This helps you keep your center
of balance and lets the strong muscles in your legs do the lifting.
2."Hug" The Load
Try to hold the object you're lifting as close to your body as
possible, as you gradually straighten your legs to a standing
position.
3.Avoid Twisting
Twisting can overload your spine and lead to serious injury.
Make sure your feet, knees and torso are pointed in the same
direction when you are lifting.
The Safe Way To Lift
Before you lift anything, think about it. Ask yourself:
• Can I lift it alone ?
• Do I need mechanical help?
• Is it too awkward for one person to handle?
• Should I ask a co-worker for help?
If the load is manageable, follow the steps to lift it safely.
Tips To Remember
In addition to these techniques, remember to make sure that your footing is firm before you
start and that your path is clear. Be sure to use the same safe techniques when you set down
your load. It takes no more time to do a safe lift than to do an unsafe lift. Why not play it
safe and lift it right?
The Concept
Proper rotation insures freshness and customer satisfaction.

Optional Equipment for a more flexible shelf setup is available!
Quick Adjust Shelving allows you to
install additional shelves without
removing existing shelves.
How to use Your Vault Solution Shelving
The design of your Vault Solution Shelving is different for a purpose. The theory is to put all of
the broken cases and your slower moving beverages on the three shelves provided.
This greatly reduces the clutter of half-full boxes laying around that are just taking up floor
space.The reason the bottom shelf is so high off the ground is to roll in stacks of your faster moving
product all the way to the back wall. This design uses all of your floor space, which is a precious
commodity in your store. A common technique that creates problems, is when a low shelf is used
that is constantly blocked by stacks of beverages and difficult to reach without a lot of bending
and lifting.

Check-Temp Thermometer
Description:
Digital refrigerator cooling monitor
Check-temp measures the average temperature of food products in refrigeation systems, and not just ambient air -- offering a truly
accurate gauge for power failures and other cooling interruptions. Use the default setting or preset the LED alarm to adhere to local
health department requirements – when the temperature rises above that preset number, a red light flashes. This indicates a power
failure or some other problem with the cooling system, which should be checked and monitored regularly to ensure quality control
of food products. Option to set temperatures at both Celsius and Fahrenheit with a range of -50° to 70°C (-58° to 158°F). Powered by
enclosed button-cell battery and back-up solar cells to ensure continuous monitoring. Small unobtrusive design, large digital readout (accuracy rating of 1°C, 2°F); and easy magnetic snap-on installation. Ideal for cooler vaults, open-air cases, beverage boxes, etc.
Health departments and store owners love this product – and so will you!!

PRODUCT PROFILE
Easy Cut 4000
Description:
The safest box cutter on the market today
Easy Cut 4000 is a breakout new box cutter that stops product damage, reduces accidents and increases profits! It is the engineering
design of both the cutter and the blade that make this possible. Easy Cut has precise blade depth settings for single, double and
triple wall boxes – and a lock position for added safety. By setting the dial to the appropriate cardboard density, the unique blade
penetrates through cardboard, touches the product inside and does not damage the product! The blade automatically retracts when
the blade loses contact with the cutting surface, providing added protection to users. Easy Cut has an ergonomic handle and
ambidextrous edge guides, to allow safe, accurate cutting. The clip-on holster and lanyard (stretches up to 6 feet!) offers convenient,
safe storage – and reduces cutter purchases! This safety knife has been re-engineered for superior performance and function and is
the champion of cutters in the Easy Cut line.
* When ordering replenishment blades, the Easy Cut 2000 blades are ideally suited for this knife.

How to hold your Easy Cut
Pinch the cutter on the edge guide with your thumb
and forefinger, with your thumb running parallel with
the body of the cutter. Your forefinger is on a 90 degree
angle with the body of the cutter covering the opposite
edge guide. All of the pressure to hold the cutter is at
this point. The remaining three fingers wrap gently
around the trigger. The focus is on the pinky finger.
You should engage the blade by squeezing the trigger
with the pinky finger with the other two fingers gently
on the trigger.

Safe Cutting
Instructions
Tape Cut/Top Cut
IMPORTANT: TAPE CUTS USE SETTING #2. Cut both taped sides and top of tape as shown
below. Open each flap and cut along score line as shown below, this keeps the international
“CARDBOARD” boxes from disentegrating when you try a normal top cut.
Stretch Wrap
IMPORTANT: STRETCH WRAP USE SETTING #3. Starting a few inches from the uppermost
section of stretch wrap, pull the blade downward through the stretch wrap. When you get to the
bottom, return to the top and finish the last few inches. The reason for leaving some connected
at the top is it holds tension on the wrap till you get it cut to the bottom.
WITH AUTO RETRACT
Changing Blades:
Cutting Angle:
Open cover, remove used blade. With new blade in hand, place blade tip in carriage and rest
back of blade on bridge, as shown below. Release blade. Blade will slide into place. When both
sides of the blade are used, dispose of blade in blade recycle box. CLOSING CARRIAGE COVER:
Make sure blade is flush with carriage, as shown below. Close cover. Blade must not interfere
with cover closing. If cover does not close, repeat blade loading procedure. Dispose of used
blades properly.
IMPORTANT: Never cut with the blade perpendicular to the surface. Always angle the cutter
to ride along the flattened area (about 15°to 20°) and place your thumb on the edge guide
while cutting, as shown below.
15°
Cutting Posture:
IMPORTANT: Center cut on your body for all types of cuts. Hold the box away from the cut
with your non-cutting hand as shown below, left. Use this posture for tape cuts, top cuts,
window cuts, tray cuts.
ALWAYS
CENTER
THE CUT
ON BODY
Spare Blade Compartment:
ACCESSING SPARE BLADES: Open spare
blade cover to access spare blade compartment.
When closing, make sure blades are flush with
carriage. Blades must not interfere with lid

the rear storage area. ADDITIONAL BLADES

When the edge guides are required, simply push the appropriate edge guide out with the
thumb. When using the edge guides, hold the cutter as shown below and place the thumb
on the edge guide to perform the cut.

Mega Spill Dust Pan
Description:
Large Capacity Dust Pan
The Mega Spill Dust Pan provides quick and easy clean-up of large spills, excessive dirt and grime on the floor. An extra-large collection
area holds up to a quart of water that won’t flex even under extreme conditions, thanks to durable materials and structural reinforcements.
The deep cavity and sloping lip ensure liquid stays put during transport. The 90-degree front edge is flush with the floor, preventing
even the smallest particles from slipping through the cracks! Serrated, molded-in “teeth” in the side panels enable a quick-action swipe
of the broom’s bristles to remove stuck-on particles. The handle snaps tightly to a standard upright broom for convenient storage.
Constructed of heavy-duty ABS plastic, the Mega Spill Dust Pan was designed for commercial use, but it’s also ideal for large clean-up
jobs around the home.
