The tubes are directed to the back of the refrigerator unit, it will be safest to put it on the door and then nothing will happen, because no oil should get into any of them, unless you break the engine mounting inside the compressor from "perfectly equal Polish roads ".

So if I understood correctly, I can pack it on the left side (looking from the back) or put it on the door. Are both options reasonably safe? Maybe one is better after all?
As for the links, I have already familiarized myself with the topics, but I have no experience in this type of transport (it must always be the first time), so I preferred to ask more experienced people.
Thank you for your interest in the topic.

I also think there is a suction tube on the L side. Do not put on the pressure side so that the oil does not clog the evaporator capillary.

Hello, I did not want to start a new topic. On which side should I put the refrigerator when transporting it horizontally?

Gentlemen, but when I was transporting refrigerators, various freezers, I never thought about putting it on the right side, I put it as it came in and always if they were operational, they would run and cool well.

Arekdj0 · Answer

You were lucky. From what a friend of mine and producers of refrigerators and freezers explained to me, there is oil in the compressor of refrigerators, which, by placing the refrigerator on the wrong side, can get into the pipes with the refrigerant and plug them. Therefore, you have to look at which side you put the refrigerator. Ps. The warranty on refrigeration appliances also mentions this and if we damage a refrigerator or other refrigeration appliance in this way, they simply will not take it into account and we will have to repair it at our own cost.

Anonymous · Answer

You can transport the refrigerator by putting it left or right; and "up the tree".
If only after transport, she would stay upright for a few hours, before plugging the power plug back into the socket.
Amen!

Good morning everyone!
Forgive me for digging up the old topic, but I don't see the point in starting a new one.

Please advise on which side it is better to transport the refrigerator. In my opinion, looking at the photo, it is on the one marked 'L'?

The capped tube should be at the top?

I will be grateful for your help!

Rezystor240 · Answer

Yes, looking at the photo, on the left side.

Anonymous · Answer

Yeah ... In this case, the only correct position is on the right side. Following your advice, all the oil from the compressor will go into the system. After all, when you put it on the right side, you have a discharge pipe and it will not send a gram of oil into the system. Sum up, you have a vague idea of refrigeration systems. I don't know who started unlocking this topic but I was posted: So I close the topic again.
