approximately 700 pounds of product (35 x 20) and assuming the refrigerator itself
weighs 300 pounds, the total combined weight of cabinet and product is
approximately 1000 pounds. Therefore, the floor in this example must be capable
of supporting up to 1000 pounds.
INSTALLING LEGS AND LEVELING REACH-IN MODELS
Your new reach-in model is supplied with adjustable type legs for leveling
purposes. Each single and two section model has four leg mounting holes on its
case bottom, and three section models have six leg mounting holes. Legs are
packed in the accessory carton from which they must be removed and installed on
the cabinet case bottom (see figure 2). In order to install the legs, carefully tip the
cabinet rearward adding four (4) 2" wood blocks underneath and simply screw the
threaded leg studs into the case bottom front leg holes. Repeat this procedure by
tilting the cabinet in the opposite direction and install the remaining legs. Make
sure the legs are tightened extremely well or the entire model will sway or rock with
each opening or closing of the doors, possibly causing damage to the case
bottom. This procedure should be performed close to the final installation site and
allow access to the rear of the cabinet for condensate evaporator installation (see
"condensate evaporator installation" under installation and location section).
To assure your cabinet is level, all legs are equipped with bullet-type leveling bolts.
These bolts can be turned by hand or by wrench, clockwise or counterclockwise to
level the cabinet.

MOUNTING ROLL-IN MODELS IN PLACE AND LEVELING
Your new roll-in model is designed and constructed to be mounted directly on the
floor without legs or casters. The floor
must
be level and the base of the cabinet
should be sealed to the floor around its entire perimeter. If the floor is not level, it
must be made level prior to mounting your roll-in model.
