SETTING AND JOINING
The sectional construction of these models enable them to be joined in line to give the effect of one continuous display.A joint trim kit is supplied with each joint.
LEVELING
IMPORTANT! IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT CASES BE LEVELED FROM FRONT TO BACK AND SIDE TO SIDE PRIOR TO JOIN- ING.A LEVEL CASE IS NECESSARY TO IN- SURE PROPER OPERATION, WATER DRAINAGE, GLASS ALIGNMENT,AND OP- ERATION OF THE HINGES SUPPORTING THE GLASS. LEVELING THE CASE COR- RECTLYWILL SOLVE MOST HINGE OPERA- TION PROBLEMS.
NOTE: A. To avoid removing concrete flooring, begin lineup leveling from the highest point of the store floor.
B. When wedges are involved in a lineup, set them first.
All cases were leveled and joined prior to shipment to insure the closest possible fit when cases are joined in the field. When joining, use a carpenters level and shim legs accordingly. Case must be raised correctly, under legs where support is best, to prevent damage to case.
1.Check level of floor where cases are to be set. Determine the highest point of the floor; cases will be set off this point.
2.Set first case, and adjust legs over the highest part of the floor so that case is level. Prevent damage – case must be raised under leg or by use of 2x6 or 2x4 leg brace. Remove side and back leg braces after case is set.
3.Set second case as close as possible to the first case, and level case to the first using the instructions in step one.
4.Apply masking tape 1/8" in from end of case on inside and outside rear mullion on both cases to be joined.
5.Apply liberal bead of case joint sealant (butyl) to dotted area shown in (Fig.2, #1) of first case. Apply heavy amount to cover entire shaded area.
DO NOT USE PERMAGUM!
It is the contractor’s responsibility to install case(s) according to local construction and health codes.
6.Slide second case up to first case snugly.Then level second case to the first case so glass front, bumper and top are flush.
7.Apply bead of silicone to side of either half of case (if case is built in two pieces). Also apply silicone to seam between overhead light tubes.
8.Slide second half up to first case snugly.To compress silicone at joint, use two Jurgenson wood clamps to pull the inside of the bulkheads together. Make sure case is level from front to back and side to side at joint. DO NOT USE BOLTSTO DRAW CASES UP TIGHT! DAMAGE MAY OCCUR!6. Make sure cases are tight and bolted together in all locations (see diagram next page). Remove clamps. Cleanup excess silicone.
9.There may be an interlock system built into the tower, depending on the height of it. Joining involves a number of bolts, again dependent on the height.
10.Attach joint trim pieces, that will hide the loose joint where the case halves come together.
11.Connect case to field electrical, refrigeration, and pipe to floor sink.
12. Install body covers.
13.Attach cart bumper, if applicable.
SPLASH GUARD
After cases have been leveled and joined, and refrigera- tion, electrical, and wasted piping work completed, install the splashguards. Fasten along the top edge, or center, with #10 X 3/3" sheet metal screws.
DO NOT SEAL JOINT TRIM TO FLOOR!
