Can I drill a hole in the side of my fridge?

Model Number: 106.61192100 Brand: Kenmore Age: More than 10 years

Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com

I bought an old fridge to turn into a kegerator. So I want to drill holes in the sides of the fridge box to run taps and lines. Does anyone know if there are any critical parts that run down the sides of the cabinet?

I'm not sure how old the unit is but it is an older Kenmore Top mount with an ice maker. Model number 106.61192100

Thanks in advance!

There may be refrigerant lines running on the side of your fridge.
