Leveling:
Cabinets must be leveled when installed. Level should be
measured on the headrail.
Note: If no casters, legs or levelers are to be installed,
the floor below the equipment must be level
Failure to level your cabinet may result in door not
sealing, closing correctly, or condensed water draining not
draining properly.
For cabinets with legs, rotate the foot of the leg with an
adjustable wrench to achieve desired height for leveling.
For cabinets with casters, leveling can be achieved by
placing large washers in between the ½’ stud and the
holes located on the bottom of the case.
Do NOT loosen casters to level
the cabinet.
Casters MUST be
tightly secured to cabinet for full
strength.
