Install The Refrigerator - Norcold 2117 Installation Manual

Install the Refrigerator

When manually (by hand) or mechanically (by hoist , lift truck, etc.)
handling a refrigerator that is not installed in an enclosure, the best
method is while the refigerator is in its original packaging.
If the refrigerator is not in its original packaging, use the handling straps
[183] of the refrigerator cabinet as the primary load carrying points (See
Art01808). There are two (2) handling straps on both the right and left
side of the refrigerator cabinet.
These handling straps may be used to lift, move, and tilt the refrigerator.
Norcold recommends that all lifting, moving, and tilting of the refrigerator
is always done by at least 2 persons.
! CAUTION:
Use only the handling straps to lift lift, move, and tilt
the refrigerator. Using any part of the refrigerator other than the
handing straps, to lift, move, or tilt it can result in damage to the
refrigerator.
1. Remove the packaging support block (See Art01850):
- Open both lower doors of the refrigerator.
- Remove and discard the two screws [41] from the front of the lower
mounting flange of the refrigerator.
- Tilt the refrigerator back just enough to remove the wooden packaging
support block [209] from behind the lower mounting flange.
- Close the doors.
2. Put the refrigerator completely into the enclosure:
- Push below the center of the refrigerator.
- Pull using a wire-form tool hooked into mounting holes [121] of the
refrigerator frame (See Art01808).
!
WARNING:
Make sure the foam combustion seal is not broken,
is completely around the refrigerator mounting flanges, and is
between the mounting flanges and the wall of the enclosure If the
seal is not complete, exhaust fumes can be present in the living
area of the vehicle. The breathing of exhaust fumes can cause
dizziness, nausea, or in extreme cases, death.
