INSTALLATION & OpERATION
5. If you plan on using optional hat channel rails to raise the case height, place them under each pair of bases. The 3 and 4-door hat channel
rails will be angled slightly to support the front and rear bases.
.
6. Place the required number of shims under each base or optional hat channel rails at each joint (front and back) to equal the highest point.
7. The RHZC30 and RHCC30, 2 through 5-door cases, have segmented bases mounted at the ends and under the center section of the
case. The RHZC30 and RHCC30 1-door and RHZC30BB and RHCC30BB have full bases that run front to back and are located at the
ends and under the center sections of the case.
. Ensure the correct orientation of shims under the base or channel.
9. Place additional support shims under all other bases or hat channel rails.
10. Use a carpenter’s level to check installation as you go. The case should be level from front to back and side to side. Install the case
at the highest point first, if part of a lineup. Check the level on the face of the glass doors and sides of the mullions. Do not use the ceiling
to check level.
11.
If you’ve purchased seismic restraints, specific instructions for attaching those restraints are included in your document package. These
instructions should be read and followed before the lineup is assembled.
Setting the Case
Position hat channel rails with tape up.
For 3 and 4-door cases, the center hat channel rail needs to be angled to rest on front and back base. Do not locate under drain hub. For 5-door
cases, there are 4 hat channel rails.
In most instances, cases will require leveling by using shims. Refer to the Leveling Section.
Moving Cases
The Back-to-Back (BB) cases are shipped with wood planks that allow the use of pipe rollers. These wood planks should be removed after the
case is moved to its final location.
.
The RHZC, RHCC, and BB cases have steel protective support plates under the ends (not under insulated dividers). These are designed to
protect the end from Johnson Bar damage.
Use the following methods to move the cases:

Care should be taken when moving the cases. The doors should be secured so they cannot open while the case is moved.
