Chapter 2: Assembly, Leveling and Installation: 

When you receive your Rethermalizer it is completely assembled with the possible exception of the casters.  

Caster Installation and Adjustment:

 

In order to install the casters on your new Rethermalizer you will need a 7/16" combination wrench and a 
7/16" socket. The casters must be installed before continuing with the installation. The casters provide the 
necessary height to meet sanitation requirements and assure adequate air supply to the burner system on gas 
machines. Attach the casters by performing the following procedure. 

a.       Lay the Rethermalizer on its back being careful not to damage the flue (on gas machines) by pulling 

on it.   Protect the outside of the unit with cardboard or a drop cloth when laying it down. 

b.       Attach each caster with the hex head cap nut supplied with the Rethermalizer. Each caster requires 

four 1/4-20 x 5/8" bolt. Mount the Locking Casters in the front of the 
machine. 

c.       Mount the bolts from the inside of the unit with the nut on the outside of 

the cooker. The nuts have lock washers attached to them, therefore it is 
not necessary to use lock washers. 

d.       When all four casters are mounted, stand the unit up being careful not to 

put too much weight on any one caster. 

e.       Move the Rethermalizer to the desired location and lock the front wheels. 

Installation;

 

Although it is possible for you to install and set up your new Rethermalizer, it is

 STRONGLY

 recom-

mended that you have it done by qualified professionals. The professionals that install your new Rethermal-
izer will know the local building codes and ensure that your installation is safe. This manual provides the 
installer with valuable information on the installation of your Rethermalizer. 

Installation Clearances:

 

The Rethermalizer needs clearance around it for proper operation. Adequate clearances allow for servicing 
and proper burner operation. The clearances shown below are for cooker installation in combustible and 
noncombustible construction.
