INSPECTION
When the equipment is received, all items should be carefully checked against the Bill of
Lading to ensure all crates and cartons have been received. Do not sign the freight bill
clear until the freight has been properly inspected for damage. All units should be
inspected for damage including concealed damage by uncrating immediately. If any
damage is found, it should be reported to the carrier at once, noted on the Bill of Lading
and a claim should be filed with the carrier. This equipment has been inspected and tested
in the manufacturing facility and has been crated in accordance with transportation rules
and guidelines. The manufacturer is not responsible for freight loss or damages.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: This unit uses a flammable refrigerant. Use care when handling and
operating to avoid damaging the refrigerant tubing or increasing the risk of a leak.
The unit has been secured to the shipping base with four bolts. Remove these bolts and
separate the unit from the shipping base. Locate the casters or legs found inside the unit.
Attach the casters or legs to the unit base by screwing them into the threaded fittings that
were used to secure the shipping base. Use the wrench provided to tighten the casters to
the unit. The casters with the brakes should be installed on the front of the unit. For proper
drainage of condensate, the unit should be level when placed in its permanent location.
Leveling shims are included in the accessories package in the cabinet. Loosen the casters
and insert shims between caster and bottom of the unit. Re-tighten the caster.
The exterior of the cabinet and doors have been protected by a plastic covering. Peel this
protective covering before installation. After removing the covering, clean the interior and
exterior surfaces of the unit with soap and water and a rinse with clean water. Do not use
chlorinated cleaners on the surfaces as they can cause corrosion.
If the door(s) have come out of alignment during shipping, they will need to be adjusted.
This can be accomplished by opening the door(s) and loosening the screws that hold both
the top and bottom hinges to the cabinet. After adjusting the door so it is aligned correct,
tighten the screws to securely hold the hinges and door(s) in place.
The shelves and shelf clips are packaged inside the unit. Install the shelf clips on the
pilasters inside the unit and set the shelves on the clips. The shelves are adjustable in
12.7mm (½inch) increments.
