PRE-INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Inspection for Shipping Damage
You are responsible for filing all freight claims with the delivering truck line. Inspect all cartons and crates
for damage as soon as they arrive. If damage is noted to shipping crates, cartons, or if a shortage is found,
note this on the bill of lading (all copies) prior to signing.
If damage is discovered when the case is uncrated, immediately call the delivering truck line and follow up
the call with a written report indicating concealed damage to your shipment. Ask for an immediate
inspection of your concealed damage item. Crating material must be retained to show the inspector from
the truck line.
GENERAL ELECTRICAL & GROUNDING
DANGER: Improper or faulty hookup of electrical components in the display case
can result in severe injury or death.
• All models are supplied with a power cord that is properly sized to the amperage requirements of the
case. See the electrical data plate located on the rear left interior of the case for the proper circuit size
for each case.
• The cord is factory installed protruding from the bottom rear corner of the case (see the “Cord Options”
section of this manual for alternate location). If factory installed cord must be relocated for desired
application the electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician.
• A separate circuit for each display case is recommended to prevent other appliances on the same
circuit from overloading the circuit and causing malfunction.
• All electrical wiring hookups must be done in accordance with all applicable local, regional, or national
electrical standards.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
General Display Case Location
The case should be located where it is not subjected to the direct rays of the sun, heating ducts, grills, radiator,
or ceiling fans, nor should it be located near open doors or main door entrances. Also, avoid locations where
these are excessive air movement or air disturbances.
Removing Case From Shipping Skid & General Installation
