Installation

Note
The freezer must be level in order to
provide adequate condensation
drainage as well as proper door
alignment and operation. The freezer
should be in its final operating loca-
tion and set so that it is firmly posi-
tioned on the floor.
Warning
If the unit is tilted in excess of 30
degrees, do not apply electrical power
for a minimum of 12 hours.

Selecting a Location

Choose a location for the freezer that will provide at least
three inches of clearance between the cabinet and any
adjacent vertical surface at the sides and the rear.
Appropriate electrical power must be available. Locate
the freezer within six feet of the power outlet so that no
extension cord is required.

Casters

Each freezer is shipped with four casters, which are pack-
aged separately and fastened inside the cabinet.
Threaded legs are available as an option for Laboratory
Freezers. Legs and casters screw directly into the weld
nut provided in each corner of the base.

Leveling the Unit

The freezers come with four casters, which thread into the
base of the unit, one in each corner. Use the wrench pro-
vided to thread the casters completely into the base of the
unit. Back the casters in or out until the unit is level and
resting on all four casters. See Figure 1.
Level the cabinet front to rear and side to side using the
leg inserts.
