and nuts.
• Follow the same procedure for mounting the Aerator to the bottom tray of the STACKING RACK.
Observe the same precautions.
• Adjustments: The front plane of both GS Series sterilizers must be approximately parallel with the
front plane of the STACKING RACK. If adjustments are needed, use the ADJUSTABLE NYLON FEET
for this purpose.
Access Area
Figure 28 is a generalized drawing of the service connections at the rear of the installation. As
previously described, flexible lines are required between the GS Series sterilizer and the stationary
services. The connections need not be made until installation is complete.
Installation of Stainless Steel Panels
Reference Figure 29.
• Remove the protective adhesive-backed paper from the PANELS prior to installation. During
installation, use care so as to not scratch the stainless steel surfaces.
• Beginning with the TOP PANEL, attach the top and lower PANELS to the STACKING RACK by means
of the Phillips-head STAINLESS SCREWS. Leave all of the screws loose at this time.
• Do not attempt to install the LOUVERED PANEL at this time.
• Slide the left and right doors frames in behind the STAINLESS STEEL PANELS and tighten the
screws.
• Slide the top door frame in behind the top STAINLESS STEEL panel. Align the door frames and
tighten all of the panel screws. Install the nut and washer on either end of the top door frame.
• Locate the adhesive backed foam and place it around the back side of the door frame at the outer
edge (Figure 25).
• Gently roll the STACKING RACK back into the access area until the DOOR FRAME meets the wall.
