Prepare The New Overlay Panel; Attaching The Overlay Panel - U-Line Echelon 2175WC Wine Captain Installation Manual

PREPARE THE NEW OVERLAY PANEL

IMPORTANT
The overlay door panel must not weigh more than
20 lbs. The thickness of the door panel must be 3/4".
1. Place a towel, or other similar, soft, non-marking
material out on a flat clean surface. Be sure the
material is large enough to have the wood panel not
touch the hard, marking surface.
2. Lay the wood panel out with the front side of the wood
facing down.
3. Cut the foam tape into four pieces, two pieces the
width of the overlay and two pieces the height of the
overlay.
4. Remove adhesive protection strip from one piece of the
cut foam and align the edge of the foam tape to the
inside edge of the overlay as shown, adhering the foam
tape to the overlay (Figure 14).
Figure 14
5. Trim each piece of tape immediately after applying it to
the overlay. Do not allow any overlapping of the foam
tape. Damage to the overlay can occur if the foam tape
is not trimmed correctly (Figure 14).
6. If required, attach any optional cabinet hardware to the
wood panel at this time. If an optional cabinet handle is
installed, make sure the mounting screw heads are
below (countersunk) the back surface of the overlay.
Note: After attaching the optional cabinet hardware,
additional supports may be needed to keep panel flat for
next steps.

8. Carefully lay the door over the wood panel, making
sure door is orientated correctly (top of door with top
of wood overlay).
9. Pull door gasket out of the groove completely. Start in
the middle and pull outward, moving towards the
corners (Figure 16). This may take some force, but be
careful not to cut or rip the gasket.

10. After gasket has been removed, place it on a flat, clean
surface.
11. Secure door to the back of the wood overlay using tape
on all four corners. Make sure all four edges are aligned
(Figure 17).
