Was doing some service work at a buffet restaurant and the guest wanted to pay and no employees were around.  I told them I didn't  work there but for cash I could get them in cheap!

Looking at the manual for the Hatco FSHC here: http://download.partstown.com/is-bin/intershop.static/WFS/Reedy-PartsTown-Site/-/en_US/manuals/HT-FSHC_pm.pdf      120V units manufactured on or before June 1988 should use Hatco 02.12.003B.00 BASIC BLOWER MOTOR KIT 120VOLT | Parts Town    While units manufactured after should use Hatco…

Wanted to also drop a line to mention that our McDonald's representative, Chris Pierce, reached out to me and wanted to make sure you have all the resources you need if you're a technician for, or an employee of, McDonald's. Parts Town has a landing page specifically for McDonald's operators and technicians   Please feel free to e-mail him…

Was the wiring on his stainless unit actually sufficient for the power draw, or had they simply not used it like "grandma on Thanksgiving?" Their range was wired exactly the same as mine.  They DO so happen to be grandparents and...I've enjoyed many Thanksgiving meals there…

I understand that.  The chest freezer would run a long cycle before shut down and being so well insulated not lose and cooling.  More properly gain heat. Heat rises and cool air drops so when you open it it will be nil.  Chest freezers also have a minimal compressor. Why it takes two days for one to cool a load.

They're not available for distribution on the internet.  Hobart won't allow it.   Try looking behind one of the control panel enclosures.  Hobart would have stuck one in there somewhere.

Can't tell you what to order without my being there to troubleshooting it.  It could be faulty power to it, faulty wiring or connection in it, a failing element or a bad thermostat.

Is this the two door with the offset evaporator/condenser on one end?  If so, the evaporator drain is either plugged or you are getting condensation from high humidity from when you open the doors.. Do you have sliding or swing doors?  The evaporator drain just drop's into a pan above the compressor.  They tend to rust out and leak on the floor…

Assembly conversion part..  Spring and LP screw for a regulator.

Would this be a Silver king ice cream truck freezer?  If so you can contact them at 763) 923-2441.  In the tech manual that they provide, there is nothing but the parts and operation.  I suspect that it is a common cold control that is made to there spec. More than likely it's a thermisor problem, but check with them and let us know.
