Pedestal Model
Pedestal mounted cases are provided with a mounting frame that runs the full length of the case. This
allows the pedestals to be located at any point along the length of the case. Each case should be
supported by at least two pedestals. One pedestal can support the ends of two adjoining cases. If in
doubt, consult the factory for assistance in determining the proper pedestal locations for your particular
installation.

Leveling
Deli cases must be installed level to insure proper operation and alignment to adjoining equipment. Use a
carpenter’s level as shown in Figure 3. Begin lineup leveling from the highest point of the store floor.
1. Level the case using the leg levelers at the corners of the pedestals (see Figure 3).
2. Raise the low end of the case to level it, do not lower the high end.
3. Check for level side-to-side and front-to-back.
4. If you are installing adjoining cases, position the next case in line beside the level case and
proceed to the next step.
5. Level this case in the same manner.
6. When level, bolt the two cases together at the locations shown in Figure 3. If the cases have
been properly leveled, the front panels and counter tops should align with a small, uniform gap
between the front panels of the two cases.
