INSTALLATION & OpERATION
Moving Cases
Various tools and equipment may be used to move cases including, but not limited to, a forklift, a Johnson bar, a pallet jack, furniture rollers,
casters, or a Rol-A-Lift. Be careful to avoid damaging the store flooring. Only certified forklift drivers should use forklifts to move the cases. The
case should only be lifted off the floor as high as necessary for transport. The forklift should be driven slowly; avoid abrupt motions or bumps.
1. Use the end frame to push/pull the case. For best results, push/pull lower on the end frame. Do not push/pull on the mullions as this
can cause the mullions to bend.
When using a Johnson bar, only contact the sheet metal of the bottom foamed panel. Do not contact the bumper support. Be careful
not to pierce the sheet metal with the corner of the Johnson bar.
When using a pallet jack or furniture rollers, only place them under the floor panels.
Do not place them under the bumper support or
drain pipe as that will crush the components.
Cases have steel protective support plates under the end panels (not under insulated dividers) to protect them from Johnson bar damage.
Make sure that a forklift with the proper fork dimensions is available. Forks must be 48" long, 1 1/2" to 1 3/4" thick, and no more than 4"
wide to fit the bases.
Refer to the table below for instructions.

OPTIONAL BASES
Spacer blocks (also called filler blocks) are included in the end bases of 4 and 6-door cases that use bases taller than 4 1/2". These blocks limit
the case's forward tilt while it is being lifted by a forklift. The forks should be inserted above the spacer blocks (
).
