INSTALLATION, CONT'D: FRONT GLASS ALIGNMENT & ADJUSTMENT (VIA RAIL SYSTEM)
7. Front Glass Alignment & Adjustment via Rail System (For Curved and Flat Front Glass)
•
Proper alignment of the front glass is important to create and maintain a seal inside the case.
•
Improper alignment can cause air leaks compromising the environment inside the case and create condensation.
•
Follow the five steps listed below to assure proper front glass alignment.
•
Illustrations shown may not exactly reflect every feature or option of your particular case.
A. Side-to-Side Leveling: Place a level on top of display case (parallel
to front glass). Raise or lower either side of case by inserting shims
under the rails to level the case (following steps 3 and 4 below).

E. Verification:
After inserting shims, open and shut the front glass.
•
Verify (again) that the front glass is properly aligned at both left-hand and right-hand side of
•
the case.
If not, repeat the shimming procedure until the front glass is properly aligned along both sides
•
of the case.
B. Front-to-Back Leveling:
• Place a level on top of case,
perpendicular to the front glass.
• Raise or lower either side of case
by shimming under the rails
(following steps 3 & 4 below).
• Double-check the side-to-side level.
