INSTALLING LEGS AND LEVELING REACH-IN MODELS

approximately 700 pounds of product (35 x 20) and assuming the refrigerator itself weighs 300 pounds, the total combined weight of cabinet and product is approximately 1000 pounds. Therefore, the floor in this example must be capable of supporting up to 1000 pounds.

INSTALLING LEGS AND LEVELING REACH-IN MODELS

Your new reach-in model is supplied with adjustable type legs for leveling purposes. Each single and two section model has four leg mounting holes on its case bottom, and three section models have six leg mounting holes. Legs are packed in the accessory carton from which they must be removed and installed on the cabinet case bottom (see figure 2). In order to install the legs, carefully tip the cabinet rearward adding four (4) 2" wood blocks underneath and simply screw the threaded leg studs into the case bottom front leg holes. Repeat this procedure by tilting the cabinet in the opposite direction and install the remaining legs. Make sure the legs are tightened extremely well or the entire model will sway or rock with each opening or closing of the doors, possibly causing damage to the case bottom. This procedure should be performed close to the final installation site and allow access to the rear of the cabinet for condensate evaporator installation (see "condensate evaporator installation" under installation and location section).

To assure your cabinet is level, all legs are equipped with bullet-type leveling bolts. These bolts can be turned by hand or by wrench, clockwise or counterclockwise to level the cabinet.

MOUNTING ROLL-IN MODELS IN PLACE AND LEVELING

Your new roll-in model is designed and constructed to be mounted directly on the floor without legs or casters. The floor must be level and the base of the cabinet should be sealed to the floor around its entire perimeter. If the floor is not level, it must be made level prior to mounting your roll-in model.
