II. RECEIPT INSPECTION
All Traulsen 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 unit for damage during delivery. If
damage is detected, you should save all the crating materials and
make note on the carrier’s Bill Of Lading describing the damage. A
freight claim should be filed immediately. If damage is subsequently
noted during or immediately after installation, contact our customer
care team to file a freight claim. There is a fifteen (15) day limit to file
freight damage with the carrier. Under no condition may a damaged
unit be returned to Traulsen without first obtaining written permission
(return authorization). You may contact Hobart/Traulsen customer care
at 800-333-7447 to request a return or file a claim.
III. INSTALLATION
III. a - LOCATION:
Select a proper location for your unit, away from extreme heat or cold.
Allow enough clearance between the unit and the side wall in order to
make use of the stay open feature at 120
0
(self-closing feature operates
up to 90
0
). The door(s) must be able to open a minimum of 90
0
in order
to make use of the maximum clear door width.
NOTE: Do not install the cabinet without legs, casters or front
ventilated utility base.
III. b - PACKAGING:
All Traulsen units are shipped from the factory bolted to a sturdy wooden
pallet and packaged in a durable cardboard container. The carton is
attached to the wooden skid with the use of large staples. These should
first be removed to avoid scratching the unit when lifting off the crate.
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.
Avoid laying the unit on its front, side or back for removal of the pallet.
NOTE: Traulsen does not recommend laying the unit down on
its front, side or back. However, if you must 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/ADJUSTING LEGS OR CASTERS:
6” High legs are supplied standard for all Traulsen compact undercounter
and prep table units. These are shipped from the factory inside a
cardboard box which is secured inside the cabinet. Casters in lieu of
legs are supplied as an optional accessory for all compact undercounter
and prep table models.
III. INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)
III. c - INSTALLING/ADJUSTING LEGS OR CASTERS:
(continued)
The casters are “stem” type, and do not require the use of any bolts. When ordered
casters are shipped in a separate box.
WARNING: THE CABINET MUST BE BLOCKED AND STABLE BEFORE INSTALL-
ING LEGS OR CASTERS.
Raise up and block the cabinet a minimum of 7” from the floor and thread the
legs into the threaded holes on the bottom of the cabinet’s.
Thread optional casters into the threaded holes on the bottom of the cabinet in
the same way. Casters with brakes should be installed at the front.
Level the cabinet using a level or pan of water in the bottom of the cabinet. On
units with legs, turn the adjustable feet in or out to level the cabinet side-to-side
and front-to-back. Units with casters should be placed on level floors.
NOTE: Traulsen units are not designed to be moved while on legs. If the unit
requires moving, a pallet jack or forklift should be used to prevent damage.
