CASE INSTALLATION
LOCATION
This refrigerated display case has been designed for displaying
and storing perishable food product. It is engineered for air-
conditioned stores with a maximum ambient of 75°F and 55%
relative humidity.
When selecting the location for placement of this case, avoid
the following conditions:
Excessive Air Movement
1. Doors
2. Air-conditioned vents
3. Other air sources
Excessive Heat
1. Windows
2. Sun
3. Flood lamps 8 feet or less from the product
4. Other heat sources
FLOOR PREP
1. Ask the general contractor if your current copy of the build-
ing dimensions are the most recently issued. Also, ask for
the points of reference from which you should take dimen-
sions to locate the cases.
2. Using chalk lines or a laser transit, mark the fl oor where
the cases are to be located for the entire lineup. The lines
should coincide with the outside edges of the case feet.
3. Move case as close as possible to its permanent location.
Remove all crating and shipping braces above the ship-
ping pallet. Loosen the plastic dust cover from the pallet,
but leave cover over the case to protect it while removing
the case from the pallet. Carefullly, lift case up and off the
pallet. Remove dust cover. Istallation hardware ships in a
marked packet located inside the case.
4. Leveling is necessary to ensure proper operation of the
refrigeration system and drainage of the condensate.
Locate the highest point on the positioning lines as a ref-
erence for determining the proper height of the shim-pack
levelers. A laser transit is recommended for precision and
requires just one person. Level adjustable feet by twisting,
if appliacble, or shim as necessary under vertical supports
as this will help ensure that the case is not settling over
time.
5. Locate horizontal support (Fig. 1) positions along the chalk
line. Spot properly leveled shim packs at each support
location.

Locate the horizontal supports under unit before
removing from pallet. Failure to do so will dam-
age the fi nished metal if correct lift points are
not identifi ed prior to removal.

These cases are not designed for excessive
external weight. Do not walk on top or inside
of cases. Doing so may result in case damage
and/or personal injury.
LINE-UP & INSTALLATION
Single Case
1. Move the case into position. Using a "J" bar, raise the end
of the case (under cross support), and lower the horizontal
support on to the shim packs. Repeat on the other end of
the case.

W A R N I N G
Be certain that your hands and feet are out of
the way before lowering the case. Failure to do
so may result in serious injury.
2. Once the case is properly placed on the shim packs,
check the vertical plumb of the case by placing a bubble
level on the rear wall. Add/remove shim packs as needed.
For the horizontal level, repeat this process after placing
the bubble level on the front sill.
3. Install the bumper, if applicable, into pre-attached bumper
track and snap into place.
4. After suffi cient time has passed to allow for bumper
shrinkage, cut away the excess bumper for fi nal fi t and fi n-
ish. Be certain to use an appropriate cutting tool (tubing-
or PVC-cutter) to ensure a smooth cut.
5. Install case shelves and reconnect lights. Be aware that
