black in the “off” position.
Temperature Control
This controls the refrigerated side by cycling the compressor/condensing unit. It has an “off”
position and the coldest setting when the knob is set all the way in the clockwise position. Set this
control at the lowest setting possible, while maintaining desired case temperature.
Controls (Non-Refrigerated Units)
Power Switch
This switch controls the power to the lighting circuit and to the optional interior fan if supplied.
The switch rocker is red in the “on” position and black in the “off” position.
Shelves
Each display is furnished with shelves that are adjustable up and down and can be tilted in two
angular positions. See “Shelving Installation & Removal” section of this manual for proper
installation, adjustment and removal of shelving.
Rear Package Shelf Pedestal
The rear package shelf is provided with the 2-3/4” pedestal option. It is not adjustable up and down.

Placing Product into Case
- Do not exceed 100 pounds of weight per shelf. Heavy product should be distributed evenly across
the entire shelving area.
- Determine desired shelving location and angle before placing product in case. Product must be
removed to readjust shelf location and angle.
(Refrigerated Models)
- Do not overhang the front of wire shelves with product. Product may overhang rear of shelf, but
allow a minimum of 1-1/2” between product and rear door. Improper clearance in front and rear of
shelf will block the refrigerated airflow and could cause product loss.
-Do not block the slots along the front or rear of the case display pan. Covering these slots will
block the refrigerated airflow and could cause product loss.
-The display pan is removable for cleaning and can become dislodged in shipment. To ensure
proper airflow and performance of the case, make sure that the display pan is pushed completely
down into evaporation tub. Check that the pan is installed properly before placing product the
display pans.
-Allow refrigerated models to run for at least two hours before placing pre-chilled product into unit.
Turn temperature control to the lowest possible position that maintains required interior cabinet
temperature.
-CASE SHOULD BE STOCKED WITH PRE-CHILLED PRODUCT
ONLY.
ATTENTION:
- Federal refrigerated display cases are designed to operate in a
maximum environment of 75 DEG. F and 55% relative humidity.
Exceeding these limits could cause poor case performance and
sweating of glass panels.

Special Service Situations
There are rare occasions when the refrigerant charge must be evacuated from a case in order to
perform service work. In those situations, Federal Industries recommends that the refrigerant
charge be evacuated into a recovery system to prevent the possibility of hydrofluorocarbons
(HFC’s) from being released into the atmosphere.
If moisture or liquid is observed around or under a Federal Industries case, an immediate
investigation should be made by qualified personnel to determine the source of the moisture or
liquid. The investigation made should determine if the case is malfunctioning or if there is a simple
housekeeping problem.
Moisture or liquid around or under a case is a potential slip/fall hazard for persons walking by or
working in the general area of the case. Any case malfunction or housekeeping problem that creates
a slip/fall hazard around or under a case should be corrected immediately.
