INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS, CONT’D: SEALING AND BOLTING HEATED CASES TOGETHER
Sealing and Bolting Heated Cases Together
Follow these steps to assure a secure, level lineup.
A. Begin all lineup leveling from highest point of
floor.
B. After the ’first’ case is level, check that front and/
or rear doors smoothly open and close.
C. Apply a heat-retention bead of industrial grade
urethane adhesive on NON-VISIBLE areas
(at case ends) as directed below. See sample
product at lower-right.
D. Line up ‘second’ case bolt-hole to bolt-hole to
‘first’ case.

F. Caution! Front of cases MUST be flush with each
other! After leveling, all cases to be same height.
G. Using SCC-supplied nuts & bolts, lightly tighten
each of the 5 to 8 bolts in a cross-wise pattern.
Work your way around the pattern, tightening
more firmly at each pass. Do not firmly tighten
one bolt and then start on the next!
H. After the cases are bolted together, level the
‘second’ case. Repeat this process for each case
to be adjoined.
I. After all lined-up cases are level, apply a
sanitation bead of industrial grade, heat-rated

START-UP / LIGHTING / CASE TEMPERATURE / PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLERS / OPERATION
1. Merchandiser Start-Up
• Case must be field wired.
• When power is supplied, throw main power
switch at case rear-right and case will power-up.
• See illustration below-right.
2. Lighting
• Overhead ceramic metal halide light switch is
at case rear, right side.
• See illustration below-right.
3. Case Temperature
• Well temperature is dependent upon both the
waterless well temperature and the overhead
ceramic heater temperatures.
• Preheat case to 170 °F on case temperature
dial (photo shown below-left) before placing
food into case.
• Caution: Case Temperature dial reflects internal
case temperature ONLY (not product temperature).
Use a food probe to determine ACTUAL product
temperature!
4. Product Heating Guidelines / Programmable
Controllers Information
• Well and overhead ceramic heaters are controlled by
Programmable Controllers.
• These controllers are located on rear wireway cover
(as shown in illustration below-right).
• Programmable controllers are pre-set at the factory to
heat both overhead and well at proper temperatures.
Modifications to these settings should be rare.
• Should programmable controllers need to be revised,
see PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLER section in
this User Manual for additional information.
