II. RECEIPT INSPECTION
III. INSTALLATION (continued)
II. a - RECEIPT INSPECTION
All Centerline products are factory tested for performance
and are free from defects when shipped. The utmost care
has been taken in crating this product to protect against
damage in transit.
You should carefully inspect your Centerline unit for damage
upon delivery. If damage is detected, you should save all the
crating materials and make note on the carrier’s Bill of Lading
describing this. A freight claim should be filed immediately. If
damage is subsequently noted during or immediately after
installation, contact the respective carrier and file a freight
claim. Under no condition may a damaged unit be returned
to Traulsen without first obtaining written permission (return
authorization). You may contact Traulsen customer care at
(800) 333-7447 and select option 2 to request a return.
III. INSTALLATION
III. a - LOCATION
Select a proper location for your Centerline unit, away from
extreme heat or cold. Allow enough clearance between the
unit and the side wall in order to make use of the door stay
open feature at 120° (self-closing feature operates up to 90°).
The door(s) must be able to open a minimum of 90° in order
to make use of the maximum clear door width available.
NOTE: Do not install the cabinet without casters
.
III. b - PACKAGING
All Centerline units are shipped from the factory bolted to a
sturdy wooden pallet and packaged in a durable cardboard
container.
To remove the wooden pallet, first if at all possible, we
suggest that the cabinet remain bolted to the pallet during
all transportation to the point of final installation. The bolts
can then be removed with a 5/8” socket wrench by tipping
or otherwise raising the unit to allow access to them.
NOTE: Traulsen does not recommend laying the unit
down on its front or side or back. However, if you must
only lay unit on the front of side, not the back and please
be certain to allow the unit to remain in an upright
position afterwards for 24 hours before plugging it in
so that the compressor oils and refrigerant may settle.
III. c - INSTALLING LEGS OR CASTERS
A set of 4” high casters are supplied standard for all compact
undercounter and prep table units. These are shipped from
the factory inside a cardboard box which is secured inside
the cabinet.
THE CABINET MUST BE BLOCKED AND
STABLE BEFORE INSTALLING CASTERS.
The “Stem” casters are installed by threading them firmly into
the cabinet bottom at each corner (see figure 1). For levelling,
turn the casters counterclockwise to raise it, clockwise to
lower it. Level the unit from front to back as well as side to
side in this manner. The caster bolts are tightened using a
1/2” socket wrench. Casters with locks should be installed
in the front for easy access to locking mechanism.
Legs & 6” casters are available in lieu of 4” casters as an
optional accessory kit for the same models. These are
shipped inside a separate cardboard box containing four
(4) casters/legs.
To install the legs or casters, first raise and block the cabinet
a minimum of 7” from the floor. For installing legs, thread the
legs into the threaded holes on the bottom of the cabinet (see
figure 2). Be certain that all legs are tightly secured. When
the unit is set in its final position, it is important for proper
operation that the unit be level. The legs are adjustable for
this purpose; turn the bottom of the leg counterclockwise
to raise it, clockwise to lower it. Level the unit from front to
back as well as side to side in this manner.
