Check frequently to ensure that all door latches are secure. Latches may become “sticky”
due to residue buildup from daily use and cleaning procedures. Lubricate latches once
every six (6) months or when needed with WD40, silicone spray, graphite or other commer-
cial lubricant for stainless steel products. Do not use oil.

If you have purchased an RTB201S or RTB202S, it has been shipped with casters for ease
of movement during installation. A set of legs are included for on-site installation. The cabi-
net must be lifted with a pallet jack or forklift for the safest installation. DO NOT PERFORM
THESE PROCEDURES IF YOU ARE ALONE. Several assistants are necessary to steady
the unit while lifitng. You will need a wrench to remove the bolts that attach the casters to
the unit.

1. Lift unit using pallet jack or forklift off the ground. Make sure unit is set squarely on the

forks prior to lifting. UNIT IS TOP-HEAVY. USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN LIFTING

TO AVOID TIPPING OF UNIT.

2. Using wrench loosen and remove the four bolts that attach each caster to the cabinet.

Save the bolts.

3. Install each leg, using the four bolts saved from each caster. Install each leg into the

same four holes where each caster was attached. Tighten each bolt securely with
wrench. Legs are adjustable to adapt to unlevel floors. This may be done by screwing
each leg clockwise to lengthen and counter-clockwise to shorten. You may have to raise
and lower the cabinet several times to adjust the legs before achieving a level setting.

4. Use pallet jack or forklift to move unit into place. Gently lower unit to floor.

WARNING

These instructions will take about 30 minutes to complete and will require two people.

Removing the doors:
1. Using a small screwdriver, remove the hinge cover and set aside.

Removing the cover will allow access to the inside hinge screws.
Remove the three screws that hold each hinge to the cabinet.

DO NOT REMOVE THE HINGES FROM THE DOORS. Removing these screws will allow
the doors to be removed from the cabinet. Be careful not to let the doors fall. Set the doors
aside. Once the doors are removed, remove the metal corner bracket and set aside.

Relocating the door handle strike plate and cover plate:
2. Remove the two screws that hold the door strikes in place. Remove the door strikes.

Remove the corner bracket and set aside. The removed corner brackets will need to be
installed on the opposite ends from which they were removed. Install the proper corner
bracket on the opposite side of the cabinet, using the door strikes and screws.

Reinstalling the doors:
3. Install the remaining corner brackets. With the help of another person, hold each door

up to the corner bracket and secure with the screws removed earlier. Before tightening
up the screws, ensure that the doors are flush, level, and square.

Relocating the door handles:
4. Remove the door handles from each door and reinstall with the pull latch facing down.

Do not attempt
caster removal if
you are alone.

Be cautious
when perform-

ing these instructions and
have several assistants to
hold cabinet steady. Serious
injury could result if precau-
tions are not taken.
