CABINET INSTALLATION
JOINING CABINETS
Cabinets shall be installed level front to back and side to side to allow correct
operation of lifting glass, and allow condensate to drain freely.
There is a 150 psig Dry Nitrogen (+/- 10psig) holding charge in the evaporator
coil, please check the pressure before safely releasing the holding charge. If
Dry Nitrogen holding charge is found to be below 140 psig, please undertake
additional leak checks of the evaporator coil.
1. Always identify the highest point on the floor where the cabinets are to be
installed. Cabinets will need to be levelled from this point.
2. Mark a line on the floor that shows the position of the rear skid rail for the line-
up.
3. Position the first cabinet, level end to end and front to back. Ensure the
footbolts are adjusted (50mm nominal adjustment range) to accommodate the
highest point in the floor. All footbolts must be adjusted to the floor. This will
ensure hinged glass maintains its position over time as the cabinet settles.
4. Apply a non-hardening, flexible sealant to the end of the cabinet to ensure a
seal between the refrigerated area of the cabinet and the ambient
environment.
5. It is advisable to apply masking tape to any visible joints to be sealed later,
before butting up the adjacent cabinet.
6. Place the next cabinet as close as possible to first cabinet and set the height of
the second cabinet to roughly match the first following the procedures in steps
3, 4, and 5.
7. Push the cases together and insert joining bolts. Make any minor adjustments
to exactly align the two cabinets and tighten the joining bolts.
8. Check cabinet is level from end to end and front to back at both ends.
9. Repeat procedures until all cabinets are aligned.
10.Apply finishing sealants and any jointer items. Remove masking tape from
sealed joins. Tidying up any excess sealant.
11.Fit bumper assemblies. Detailed instructions are on the following page.
12.Check all glass gaps on lift front cabinets. Adjust as required to have a 3mm
gap between each glass. A larger gap can be closed using a wiper strip
adjacent to ends on box cabinets.
13.Fit wiper strips to the ends of box cabinets where required to close any glass
gaps. Use RTV to glue to glass
14.After all services have been installed and completed, fit coving angles and
dress panels.
15.Clean the condensate deck of any filings and rubbish that may have
accumulated during installation. These may block drains or cause rust damage
to panels over time.
16.Fit any internal panels that have been removed for installation.
17.Fit all supplied accessories. A list of separately wrapped loose items should be
on the cabinet
NOTE: The front glass may be packed loose in VSS726E and VVS727E cabinets.
NOTE: There are joining diagrams at the back of this manual.
