PRE-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

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 or 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 cabinet 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.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. Be sure the equipment is properly installed by competent service people.

2. Keep the equipment clean and sanitary so it will meet your local sanitation codes. Wipe up all spills, clean with
water and a mild detergent, then rinse with clean water.

3. Rotate your stock so that older stock does not accumulate. This is especially important for ice

cream. A "First-In, First-Out" rotation practice will keep the products in good sellable condition.

4. Do not place product in the case when it is soft or partially thawed. Also, product should not be put in the case for
at least 6 hours after it is started.

5. Stock cases as quickly as possible, exposing only small quantities to store temperatures for short periods of time.

6. When replacing burned flourescent bulb/LED light bar, be sure that the electrical power to the lighting circuit is
turned off.

To comply with N.S.F. requirements, this cabinet must be sealed to the floor with NSF listed silicone
sealant. Before moving cabinet into place, route cabinet plumbing with P-trap to store drain line or install optional
condensate pan.

STORE CONDITIONS

The Master-Bilt TEL/TEM Self-Contain cases are designed to operate in the controlled environment of an air conditioned
store. The store temperature should be at or below 75F and a relative humidity of 55% or less. At higher temperature or
humidity conditions, the performance of these cases may be affected and the capacity diminished. It is not uncommon in
a newly constructed store for the temperature and humidity to be above design conditions. These excessive conditions
may produce sweating in the case until the store is operational and the ambient environment is more desirable.

LOCATION

The Master-Bilt TEL/TEM Self-Contain should not be positioned where it is directly exposed to rays of the sun or near a
direct source of radiant heat or air flow.

Cabinet should not be built into an enclosed area. If this case is to be located against a wall there should be at least a 4”
space between the wall and the back of the case, with 4” open space at top and one or both ends. This space will allow
for the circulation of air behind the case which will prevent condensation on the exterior surfaces.

Make sure that the floor that will support this equipment is of adequate strength to prohibit sagging. After confirming the
dimensions of case with the blueprint measure off and mark on the floor the exact location of the cases for the entire
lineup. Snap chalk lines where the base skids of the case are to be located as shown in Figure 1.
