SHIPPING RIDER
Each case is shipped on a rider to protect the
factory installed legs, and to make positioning
the merchandiser easier.
DO NOT remove the
rider until the case has been positioned.
Once the
rider is removed, the case must be lifted –NOT
PUSHED– to reposition. To remove the rider,
remove bolts attaching rider to each leg.
MERCHANDISER LEVELING
Merchandisers must be installed level to ensure
proper operation of the refrigeration system
and to ensure proper drainage of defrost
water. During all steps of setting, joining and
leveling merchandisers, close attention to
position and operation must be maintained.

Preparation
1. Using store blueprints, measure and mark
on floor the exact dimensions/locations of the
merchandiser footprint.
A three (3) inch space is
required behind each wall merchandiser, or lineup
of merchandisers to prevent condensation. A three
(3) inch space is also required at ends of merchandiser,
or merchandiser lineup to prevent condensation.
2. Snap a chalk line for the front and rear
positions of the base legs.
3. Mark the location of each joint from front
to back lines.
4.
FLOORS ARE NOT LEVEL!!!
When
joining two or more merchandisers, all cases in
the lineup must be leveled on the same plane,
left to right and front to back. This means that
the entire lineup must be brought up to the
level of the highest merchandiser in the lineup.
Along the lines previously marked, find the
highest point of the floor by:
• Walking the floor and noticing any dips
or mounds;
• Using a string level or laser level; and
• Using a transit.
Leveling
Position the first merchandiser at the highest
point on the floor. Work outward from that
point to create the merchandiser line-up.
Use a 48 inch (1220 mm) or longer level for
end-to-end leveling. The discharge nosing of
the merchandiser is a good location for the
level at the rear of the merchandiser (center of
wide island), and the handrail or return nosing
is a good location for the level at the front of
the merchandiser.
For leveling the merchandiser front-to-rear,
a 24 inch (610 mm) level should be placed on
the flange of the merchandiser end frame.
Suggested level locations are shown in the
following illustrations on the next page.
