INSTALLING DOOR HANDLES
CAUTION
Wear gloves and safety goggles. Use extreme CAUTION when installing these handles.
NOTE
All set screws should be tightened so the screw is below
the surface of the handle. The handles should be drawn
tight to freezer and refrigerator doors with no gaps.
Opening the opposite door while tightening the Allen
screw makes installation easier.
The door handle may loosen over time or if it was
installed improperly. If this happens, tighten the set
screws on the handles.
