ROLLERS
The rollers have 3 purposes:
n
Rollers adjust so the door closes easily when opened
about halfway. [Raise the front about 5/8" (16 mm)
from the floor.]
n
Rollers adjust so the refrigerator is firmly positioned
on the floor and does not wobble.
n
Rollers allow you to move the refrigerator away from
the wall for cleaning.
Final leveling adjustments should be made after
the refrigerator has been installed.
To adjust the rollers on 24' and 25' models:
Remove the base grille by opening the doors, removing
the screws at each end, and pulling it straight out.
Turn the front roller
adjusting screws
clockwise to raise
the refrigerator,
counterclockwise to
lower it. Use a 3/8"
hex socket or wrench,
or an adjustable
wrench.
These models also have rear adjustable rollers so you
can align the refrigerator with your kitchen cabinets.
Use a 3/8" socket wrench to turn the screws for the rear
rollers–clockwise to raise the refrigerator,
counterclockwise to lower it.
Replace the base grille.

DOOR ALIGNMENT

After leveling, make sure that the refrigerator door is 1/16"
higher than the freezer door.
To align the doors, adjust the refrigerator door.
Using a 7/16" socket wrench, turn the door adjusting
screw to the right to raise the door, to the left to lower
it. (A nylon plug, imbedded in the threads of the pin,
prevents the pin from turning unless a wrench is used.)
After one or two turns of the wrench, open and close
the refrigerator door and check the alignment at
the top of the doors.
To remove the base grille,
open the doors, remove
the screw at each end of
the base grille and then
pull the grille straight out.
