Installing The Unit - Perlick HC Series Installation & Operation Manual

Single Door Undercounter Refrigeration Installation & Operation Manual
Installating the Unit
1). Plug the unit into the 15 amp grounded electrical
outlet located within the installation opening. With
power applied to the unit, check that the lighting and
cooling functions operate properly. Turn off the power
to the wall outlet at the circuit breaker.
2). With all surfaces in the installation opening square
and level, refer to Figure 2 (shown right) and perform
the following steps:
► At the bottom of the opening, measure from
the floor to the bottom of the front edge of the
countertop.
► Measure from the floor surface to the top of the
unit at the rear corners.
► Adjust the unit legs so these two measurements
are equal. Using an adjustable wrench or pliers,
turn legs clockwise to lower the unit and clockwise
to raise it.
NOTE: Legs should not extend more than 3/4" from
the bottom of the unit.
3). Slide the unit into position in the opening. Make
sure the rear leveling legs slide under the anti-
tip brackets. Push the unit into the opening until
the bottom front edge of the unit is flush with the
surrounding cabinetry, or until the rear legs are tight
against the anti-tip brackets.
NOTE: The rear leveling legs must be engaged un-
der the anti-tip brackets.
4). Shim the front of the unit so the front face is flush
with surrounding cabinetry. Adjust the front legs to
support the countertop at the shimmed height. Using
an adjustable wrench of pliers, turn the legs clockwise
to lower the unit or counterclockwise to raise it.
Countertop should be resting on top of the unit.
NOTE: Countertop should be resting evenly on en-
tire top of the unit. Shim if necessary to prevent dam-
age to the countertop.
5). Check interior door openings to make sure the unit
is level and square. Install shelving and/or drawers.
Place the slide brackets squarely into the bracket
grooves. When installed properly, a "click: should be
heard from the slide bracket retaining tabs and the
brackets should slide smoothly. The retaining tabs will
stop the shelf/drawer when pulled out to full extension.
