16. Front Glass Alignment & Adjustment via Levelers
•
Proper alignment of the front glass is important to create and maintain a seal inside the case.
•
Improper alignment can cause air leaks compromising the environment inside the case and create condensation.
•
Follow the five steps listed below to assure proper front glass alignment.
2. Front-to-Back Leveling:
•
Place a level on top of case,
perpendicular to front glass.
•
Raise or lower either side of case by
rotating levelers to center the level
bubble (follow steps 3 and 4).
•
Double-check the side-to-side level.
1. Side-to-Side Leveling: Place level on top of display case (parallel
to the front glass). Raise or lower either side of the case by rotating
levelers to center the level bubble (following steps 3 and 4 below).
5. Verification:
•
After adjusting
the levelers,
open and shut
the front glass.
•
Verify again that
front glass is
properly aligned
at both left-hand
and right-hand
side of case.
•
If not, repeat the
above procedure
until front glass is
properly aligned
along both sides
of case.
18. Front Glass Alignment & Adjustment
via Clamshell Allen Screw Adjustment
•
Make certain case is level and plumb.
•
Lift glass to maximum upright position.
•
Determine which side requires realignment.
•
While maintaining grip on glass, loosen the Allen
screws nearest to misaligned side.
•
Adjust the glass until properly positioned.
•
Allen screws may now be tightened (taunt, but
not overly tightened lest glass breakage occur).
•
If other side needs alignment, repeat steps while
maintaining grip on glass.
