Well, I'd build some sort of stand and turn the freezer the same way as a chest freezer. Just make sure the hot side coil (if there is one on the back side of the freezer) isn't enclosed so it can release the heat properly. You're risking far less this way (when it is a useless thing now) than...

I have tried it on shower outlet and it worked ok. I had to squeze the middle of the nozzles so i got same height spray from all nozzles. Here is the photo: And about the scratches. Yes, there is a chance but by paying a little attention when putting bottles on the nozzles you should be ok...
