III. c - INSTALLING LEGS OR CASTERS
6” High stainless steel legs are supplied standard for all
Traulsen reach-in and pass-thru units. Casters in lieu of
legs are available as an optional accessory for the same
models. These are shipped from the factory packed inside
a cardboard box which is strapped to one of the shelves.
Remove the nylon strap and open the box, it should contain
either four (4) legs or four (4) casters and sixteen (16) bolts.
THE CABINET MUST BE BLOCKED AND
STABLE BEFORE INSTALLING LEGS OR CASTERS.
To install the legs or casters, first raise and block the reach-
in a minimum of 7” from the floor. For installing legs, thread
the legs into the threaded holes on the bottom of the cabinet
(see figure 2). Be certain that all legs are tightly secured
(legs and casters should be tightened to 300 inch/pounds,
max). When the unit is set in its final position, it is important
for proper operation that the unit be level. The legs are
adjustable for this purpose; turn the bottom of the leg
counter- clockwise to raise it, clockwise to lower it. Level the
unit from front to back as well as side to side in this manner,
using a level placed in the bottom of the cabinet.
Please note that Traulsen units are not designed to be moved
while on legs. If the unit requires moving, a pallet jack or
forklift should be used to prevent damage. For installing
casters, the casters are “plate” type, and require the use of
four (4) bolts each to secure them firmly to the cabinet bottom
at each corner (see figure 3). The caster bolts are tightened
using a 1/2” socket wrench.
III. d - SHELF PINS
The unit is supplied with shelves and shelf pins installed.
Check all shelf pins to assure they are tightened down as
they may have come loose during shipping. Rotate the
pins clockwise until they are secured against the side of
the cabinet.
III. e - ROLL-IN MODEL INSTALLATION
Roll-in cabinets set on the floor require the floor area to be
flat and level. In addition, after the cabinet is set in place,
sealant should be used around the perimeter of the base to
comply with National Sanitation Foundation requirements
(see figure 4). After sealing the unit, the enclosed ramp
should then be installed.
A stainless steel threshold ramp(s) is included to facilitate
roll-in racks. It is shipped wrapped in brown paper and
secured to the rack guides inside the cabinet. To secure it in
place, remove the two thumb screws in the breaker strip near
the bottom door opening. Next, loosen the thumb screws
located along the floor at the threshold. Place the ramp(s)
on top of the loosened thumb screws and secure tabs on
each end to breaker strips with thumb screws previously
removed. After installing the ramp(s), it too should be sealed
to the floor.
Bumper strips are secured to the back of roll-in models with
thumb screws. Loosen these and make them finger tight to
conform with the requirements of the National Sanitation
Foundation (NSF).
III. f -
ATTACHING DOUBLE DEPTH UNITS TOGETHER
Double depth roll-in/roll-thru units are shipped as two
separate components which must be attached together at
the jobsite. To accomplish this, first, place the front and rear
cabinets in close proximity to each other being careful to
align the drain from the front of the rear unit to the drain of
the front unit. It will be necessary to level both units together
at this time.
