    I warmly welcome,

    Soon I will carry the refrigerator lying down, I would like to ask for help in determining on which side I should carry it. I can not determine according to the guidelines I found on the internet on which website this particular model will be better transported. I'd rather be sure not to make a stupid mistake. I'm sending a photo.

    From what I read, it is very important that the refrigerator should be at least 12 hours vertically before switching on.

    Thank you in advance for your answer.

    Witam.Para years ago I was selling refrigerators and the principle was that this blind element on the right should be the highest (I have no idea why but it worked). So according to my experience You should carry it on the left side.

    They also arrived at the side and the packaging in Styrofoam was quite enough.Of course, after such transport they had to stand their own (customers informed that about 12 hours). Checked out. Of course, transport as carefully. From artur

    I also do not know for sure, but I suppose that such a position prevents oil from entering the evaporator, because if the oil gets there it is a chapel.

    Probably not because then such an aggregate could not be used as a compressor. I had a compressor in the fridge years ago. After its replacement and start-up, the freezer cooled down and stopped, after switching off and after a while the situation was repeated and the serviceman stated that the oil got to the evaporator, freezes and blocks the flow of the refrigerant.
    In this situation, the evaporator should in principle be replaced. Here, the evaporator was unblocked in such a way that the evaporator was heated by a ventilator and the compressor of the refrigerator started at that time, after one of these attempts the refrigerant circuit was not stopped and the refrigerator started to function normally.

    Yes, because on the right side you have a delivery tube which is inside the compressor built in and there is no contact with the oil on the left side you have tubes that directly enter the compressor housing so you could pour oil into the system.

    So I understand that the final version is the refrigerator on the right hand side, which ROBSON suggested and should it be all right? I would like to ask and confirm, because I see that at the beginning of the conversation someone suggested the left side for transport and I got a little stupid :)

    Thank you for all the answers.

    Thank you so much for your help. Greetings!

Topic summary

The discussion centers on the proper method for transporting a refrigerator horizontally, specifically which side to lay it on. Users suggest that the refrigerator should be transported on the right side to prevent oil from entering the evaporator, which could lead to operational issues. It is emphasized that the refrigerator must remain upright for at least 12 hours before being powered on to allow the oil to settle back into the compressor. Concerns about the compressor's protection during transport and the potential for damage to coolant pipes are also raised. The final consensus confirms that transporting the refrigerator on the right side is the safest option.
