Setting and Joining
The sectional construction of these models enable them
to be joined in line to give the effect of one continuous
display.
An Alignment pin kit is supplied with every case and must
be used in alignment.
Leveling
IMPORTANT! IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT CASES BE
LEVELED FROM FRONT TO BACK AND SIDE TO SIDE
PRIOR TO JOINING. A LEVEL CASE IS NECESSARY
TO INSURE PROPER OPERATION, WATER DRAINAGE,
GLASS ALIGNMENT, AND OPERATION OF THE HINGES
SUPPORTING THE GLASS. LEVELING THE CASE
CORRECTLY WILL SOLVE ALL HINGE OPERATION
AND GLASS ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS.
NOTE:
A. To avoid removing concrete flooring, begin lineup
leveling from the highest point of the store floor.
All cases were leveled and joined prior to shipment to
insure the closest possible fit when cases are joined in the
field. When joining, use a carpenters level and adjust legs
accordingly. The legs on the Q1-SSN are adjustable and
do not require shims. Simply screw the leg up or down to
adjust height.
1. Using case blueprints, measure off and mark on the
floor the exact dimensions of where the cases will
sit. Snap chalk line for front and back positions of
base rail or pedestal. Mark the location of each joint
front and back. Find the highest point throughout the
lineup. FLOORS ARE NORMALLY NOT LEVEL!
Determine the highest point of the floor; cases
will be set off this point. All cases in the entire
lineup must be brought up to the highest level of the
case sitting at the highest point in the lineup. This
may be done a few different ways.
a) Walk the floor looking for any mounds or dips.
b) Use a string level.
c) Use a transit.
If a wedge is used in the middle of a lineup, the
wedge must be set on the highest point on the floor
FIRST, with the rest if the lineup being leveled from
it. The Q1-SSN case has adjustable legs to allow for
leveling.
2. Set first case over the highest part of the floor and
adjust legs so that case is level. Remove side and
back leg braces after case is set and joined.
3. Set second case within one foot (1') of the first case,
and remove leg skids. Keep the supports along the
length of the case and far end of case. Level case to
the first using the instructions in step one.
Installation (Cont'd)
4. Apply masking tape 1/8" in from end of case on inside
and outside rear mullion and body work on both
cases to be joined.
5. Apply liberal bead of case joint sealant (butyl) to first
case. Sealant area is shown using a dotted line in
illustration in Step 8. Apply heavy amount to cover
entire shaded area.
It is the contractor's responsibility to install
case(s) according to local construction and
6. Slide second case up to first case snugly. Then level
second case to the first case so glass front, bumper
and top are flush.
Do not use bolts to pull cases together.
7. To compress butyl at joint, use two Jurgenson wood
clamps. Make sure case is level from front to back
and side to side on inside bulkheads at joint.
8. Attach sections together via the bolts pictured in the
illustration below.
9. Apply bead of butyl to top of bulk heads and slip on
stainless steel bulkhead cap. Also apply silicone to
seam between joints.
10. Use finger to smooth silicone as thin as possible at
masking tape on inside and outside of rear mullion
(apply additional silicone if necessary). Remove
tape applied on line #4.
11. Remove front, back and end shipping braces.
Q1-SSN Refrigerated Wedges and Standard Cases
Line up taper pins and line-up plates with holes on adjoining
case. Bolting is located at the rear of the case, behind the
air discharge wall, and behind the front body panel. The
cases are bolted together in front by means of a bracket
located behind the front panel. Remove the front panel by
unscrewing these bottom screws.
