Counterweight
The window counterweight is secured to the back of the cabinet to protect
the window from damage during shipping.
Caution
The counterweight on
the cabinet back compensates for
the weight of the front window.
Do not try to move the front
window before the counterweight
has been unlocked.
s
Warning
After unlocking, keep
hands and fingers away from the
motion range of the
counterweight!
s
To unlock the counterweight,
remove the shipping screws (see
location arrows in Figure 3-2)
and retain them for future
shipping needs. A Torx wrench is shipped in the manual bag for this
purpose.
Warning
One person should hold the counterweight while a second
person removes the screws. This facilitates screw removal and avoids the
possibility of stripping the screws.
s
Note
The cabinet should be leveled only after it has been located in the
desired working location.
s
For cabinets without a stand, place a bubble level onto the work tray
surface and adjust the cabinet until the level indicates an absolutely
horizontal position in all directions.
For cabinets with an optional stand, place a bubble level onto the work
tray and adjust the four levelers of the stand using an open end or
adjustable wrench until the bubble level indicates an absolutely horizontal
position in all directions. Check from right to left, and from back to front.
