FIGURE 3A: Casters Must be Tight to Cabinet Bottom
Do not attempt to level casters by unscrewing them
from the cabinet and leaving them loose, as this will
cause damage to the cabinet and leg hole threads,
voiding all warranties.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is extremely important that your
cabinet is perfectly level for proper operation. If it is not
level, the following adverse conditions may occur:
1. The door(s) will not be properly aligned and
consequently will not provide a good seal.
2. Your unit may run excessively.
3. An excessive amount of ice will accumulate inside
the cabinet, around the door opening(s) and on the
finned evaporator coil. If allowed to continue, ice will
eventually block the coil and the unit will fail. This
can result in the loss of all food stored in the cabinet.
4. Defrost water will fail to drain properly and will
overflow the evaporator coil drain pan and into the
cabinet of both refrigerator and freezer models.
INSTALLING LEGS AND LEVELING
If your new unit is supplied with adjustable legs, they will be
packed in the accessory carton in the cabinet. Your cabinet will
have either four (4) or (6) threaded mounting holes on the bot-
tom of the cabinet (see Figure 4). In order to install the legs,
carefully tip the cabinet back, 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 pro-
cedure should be performed close to the final installation site.
and strong enough to support the total combined weights of
your new model plus the maximum product load which might
be placed into it. Keep in mind that all the weight is concentrated
at the caster or leg locations. To estimate the possible product
weight, assume that each cubic foot of storage space weighs
approximately 35 pounds. Multiply 35 pounds by the amount
of cubic feet in the cabinet to obtain the product load weight.
For example, a 20 cubic foot refrigerator can hold approximately
700 pounds of product (35 x 20). Assuming the cabinet itself
weighs 300 pounds, the total combined weight of cabinet and
product is approximately 1000 pounds. Therefore, the floor in
this example must be able to support up to 1000 pounds.
INSTALLING CASTERS AND LEVELING
If your new unit is supplied with swivel casters, they will be
packed in the accessory box that came with your cabinet.
Casters should be installed only when the cabinet is close to
its final installation site. To install casters on your new model,
place wooden blocks along the back, at each end. Tilt the cabi-
net back, using the wood blocks to help hold the cabinet in its
tilted position. Locate the large threaded holes on the bottom
of the cabinet and screw the threaded caster studs into the
mounting holes, closest to the front of the unit. Repeat this
procedure by tilting the cabinet in the opposite direction and
installing the remaining casters. Make sure the casters are
tightened extremely well (see Figure 3 & 3A). If the casters are
not installed tightly, the cabinet will be unstable and may sway
or rock, which can damage the cabinet.
If the height of a caster needs to be raised, shims must be
installed under the casters which need leveling. Extra large
washers, available at most hardware or furniture stores, can be
used to shim casters, or contact the factory for caster shims.
