SELF CONTAINED (LOCATION)
Product should always be maintained at proper
temperature. This means that from the time
the product is received, through storage, preparation and display, the temperature of the product must be controlled to maximize the life of the
product.
Besuretopositionselfcontained
merchandisersproperly.
SELF CONTAINED models have vented base
panels to allow air circulation through the
condensing unit.
Allow for a minimum 5 in. clearance from
walls, merchandisers, and any other large
objects near the merchandiser’s vented base
panels (for self contained models). Blocking
or restricting air flow will adversely affect performance and may damage the refrigeration
system.
For California Businesses:
This product may contain chemicals known
to the State of California to cause cancer,
birth defects, or other reproductive harm.
This warning is the result of the California State
law known as the California Safe Drinking Water
and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, which is
commonly referred to as “Proposition 65.”
This warning does not mean that Hussmann
products will cause cancer or reproductive
harm, or is in violation of any product-safety
standards or requirements. As claried by the
California State government, Proposition 65
can be considered more of a ‘right to know’ law
than a pure product safety law. When used as
designed, Hussmann believes that our products
are not harmful. We provide the Proposition 65
warning to stay in compliance with California
State law. It is your responsibility to provide
accurate Proposition 65 warning labels to your
customers when necessary. For more information
on Proposition 65, please visit the California
State government website.
The MD models are open, vertical, medium
temperature display merchandisers. They are
self contained merchandisers with their own
condensing unit. Each self contained model
has a condensing unit that is factory installed
beneath the display area of the case. The unit
is ready for operation when electrical service is
connected.
Do not store items or ammable materials
atop the unit.
UNLOADING
Unloading from Trailer:
Lever Bar (also known as a Mule, Johnson
Bar, J-bar, Lever Dolly, or Pry Lever)
Move the merchandiser as close as possible to
its permanent location and remove all packaging.

not place heavy objects on the merchandiser.
SHIPPING SKID
Each merchandiser is shipped on a skid to
protect the merchandiser’s base, and to make
positioning the case easier.
Remove the top of the crate and detach walls
from each other. Lift crate from the skid.
Unscrew the case from the skid. The fixture
can now be lifted off the crate skid. Lift only at base of skid! Remove any braces and/or skids
attached (blanket wrapped merchandiser may
have skids).
DO NOT TILT MERCHANDISER ON ITS
SIDE OR END WHEN REMOVING SKID.
Once the skid is removed, the merchandiser
must be lifted —NOT PUSHED— to reposition.
To remove the skid, remove screws attaching
skid to the merchandiser.
1. Do not drag the merchandiser out of the
trailer. Use a Johnson bar (mule).
2. Use a forklift or dolly to remove the
merchandiser from the trailer.

SEALING MERCHANDISER TO FLOOR
If required by local sanitary codes, or if the
customer desires, merchandisers may be sealed
to the floor using a vinyl cove base trim. The
size needed will depend on how much variation there is in the floor, from one end of the
merchandiser to the other. Sealing of the lower
front and rear panels on self contained models may hamper their removal for servicing or
maintenance of the condensing unit.
NOTE: Do not allow trim to cover any intake
or discharge grilles located in the lower front
panel.
Refer to merchandiser serial plate for electrical
information.
FIELD WIRING
Field wiring must be sized for component
amperes stamped on the serial plate. Actual
ampere draw may be less than specified.
To avoid serious injury or death from electrical
shock, always disconnect the electrical power
at the main disconnect when servicing or
replacing any electrical component. This
includes, but is not limited to, such items as
doors, lights, fans, heaters, and thermostats.

ALWAYS CHECK THE SERIAL PLATE FOR
COMPONENT AMPERES
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
All wiring must be in compliance with NEC
and local codes. Self contained models are
electrical cord connected at the electrical box.
ELECTRICAL OUTLET:
Before the merchandiser is connected to any
wall circuit, use a voltmeter to check that the
outlet is at 100% of the rated voltage. The wall
circuit must be dedicated for the merchandiser.
Failure to do so voids the warranty. Do not use an extension cord. Never plug in more than one
merchandiser per electrical circuit.
Self-contained models have
factory-installed power cords
attached at the electrical box.

REFRIGERATION
(Self Contained Models)
Each self contained model is equipped
with its own condensing unit and control
panel located beneath the display area. The
correct type of refrigerant will be stamped
on each merchandiser’s serial plate. The
merchandiser refrigeration piping is leak
tested. The unit is charged with refrigerant,
and shipped from the factory with all service
valves open.
Refrigeration lines are under pressure.
Refrigerant must be recovered before
attempting any connection or repair.
WATER OUTLET AND WATER SEAL
The condensate water outlet is located at the
front corners of the evaporator coil area. The
outlet has a factory installed, external water
seal.
For self contained models, this water seal
drains into the condensate evaporator pan
located beneath the merchandiser.
NOTE: All lower base panels must be in place
when the refrigerator is operating. If not,
airflow from the condenser will be directed
over the evaporator pan and defrost water in
the pan may overflow.
