Installation (cont’d)
VR1-D Lifting and Transport
Instructions
1. The VR1-D can be lifted by a forklift at
typical lifting points.
2. Ensure lower body panels are removed
before lifting with a forklift. Serious damage will
occur if the body panels are not removed.
(Shipped loose from factory)
3. Make sure that fork spacing and width will
not damage drain or come in contact with
piping, or electrical lines
4. Be sure that the forks are long enough to
sup-port beyond the center of the case but not
dam-age near components. Check for proper
balance before moving. A minimum fork length
of 36” is recommended for 68” wide cases
VR1-D-8 Drain Location
1. The VR1-D merchandiser can be raised at one
end underneath the deck with a forklift or J-Bar if
forklift is not accessible to allow the placement of
rollers or dollies.
2. Evenly support the entire base structure on
rollers or dollies before attempting to move. Each
Base Leg must have its own dolly to properly
support the case.
Lifting Points are typical and dependent upon size of
case and refrigeration application, drainage
configurations will call for altercations in Lifting
Zones.
Below are the following drainage configurations and
lifting should be altered to the expected model.
8' Case
WARNING
Improper placement of forks may damage
drainage piping. Use a spotter when placing
forks. Make sure that piping will not be dam-
aged. Use J-Bars or Jacks if forks cannot be
used safely

out any discrepancies in order to optimize case
performance and proper drainage.
Note: Metal Shims are recommended for use to
eliminate any deterioration from shims over time.

Setting and Joining
The sectional construction of these models enable
them to be joined in line to give the effect of one
continuous display.
An alignment pin kit is supplied with every case and
must be used in alignment.
Leveling
IMPORTANT! IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT CASES
BE LEVELED FROM FRONT TO BACK AND
SIDE TO SIDE PRIOR TO JOINING. A LEVEL
CASE IS NECESSARY TO ENSURE PROPER
OPERATION, WATER DRAINAGE, GLASS
ALIGNMENT AND OPERATION OF THE HING-
ES SUPPORTING THE GLASS. LEVELING
THE CASE CORRECTLY WILL HELP TO
SOLVE MOST HINGE-RELATED ISSUES.
