2Locate and remove the shipping block in the center of the heat exchanger in the interior
bottom of each case, see Figure 2.
Snap a chalk line on the floor to use as a guide
for positioning the front of the cases in the
line-up. The front base frame should be on the
chalk line.
3Once cases are close to final placement, remove the shipping braces from the ends to be joined,
see Figure 3. Discard bolts and flat washers
used to hold shipping braces. Bolts are too
long to be used for joining.

INSTALLING BUMPERS
Offsetting the bumpers and top rails helps to
disguise the joint locations, giving the lineup a
smoother look.
Begin at the left end of the line-up. A starter bumper is
factory-installed with end kits. Insert the internal joint
trim, then add the full-length bumper.
Align each bumper section with its retainer and push
into place, working from the end of the lineup. Install
full length bumpers and internal joint trims offset
across joints. Make sure that no gaps exist between
sections. Continue installing bumpers the length of the
line up.
Do NOT install the last bumper sections at this time.
These sections will be installed in the last step.
Once all except the last section of bumper have been
installed, refrigerate the case line-up for at least six
(6) hours. The last sections of bumper should be kept
inside a refrigerated case or cooler during this time to
allow the bumpers to contract.
Before installing the last full-length section,
measure the remaining space. Use a miter box and
fine-tooth saw to cut last bumper to length. Install
the last section. Remove protective film from bumpers
once installation is complete. Optional end bumpers are
factory-installed.
Bumper End Caps can be adjusted horizontally to eliminate
gaps.
