Installing Bumpers - Hussmann Freedom Line series Installation & Operation Manual

INSTALLING BUMPERS

Offsetting the bumpers and top rails helps to
disguise the joint locations, giving the lineup
a smoother look.
Begin at the left end of the line-up. A starter
bumper is factory-installed with end kits. Insert
the internal joint trim, then add the full-length
bumper.
Align each bumper section with its retainer and
push into place, working from the end of the
lineup. Install full length bumpers and inter-
nal joint trims offset across joints. Make sure
that no gaps exist between sections. Continue
installing bumpers the length of the line up.

Do NOT install the last bumper sections at this
time. These sections will be installed in the last
step.
Once all except the last section of bumper have
been installed, refrigerate the case line-up for at
least six (6) hours. The last sections of bumper
should be kept inside a refrigerated case or
cooler during this time to allow the bumpers to
contract.
Before installing the last full-length section,
measure the remaining space. Use a miter
box and fine-tooth saw to cut last bumper to
length. Install the last section.
Remove protective film from
bumpers once installation is
complete.
Optional end bumpers are
factory-installed.
