ASSEMBLY
Some components can be removed to allow the cabinet to pass through short or narrow doorways.
The door handle can be removed as follows:
1. If the adhesive-backed trim pieces are damaged during removal, new ones can be purchased
from Hobart. The adhesive-backed trim pieces on the top and bottom of the handles need to be
peeled off to expose the screws.
2. Peel off the trim pieces and remove the
screws which secure the handles.
3. Reinstall screws, handles and trim
pieces in reverse order of disassembly.
Door(s) and hinges can be removed as
follows:
1. Lift up and remove the front trim panel
(Fig. 1).
2. Remove the screws which secure the
trim rail cover (Fig. 1), unplug the door
switch lead wires, and remove the
screws which secure the trim rail (Fig.
1). Carefully lay the trim rail on top of
the cabinet — avoid damaging or
kinking the thermometer capillary tube.
3. Remove the three screws which
secure the upper hinge plate to the
cabinet (Fig. 2). This will remove hinge
tension. Remove the nut underneath
the lower hinge plate which secures
the bottom hinge. Remove door.
Remove lower hinge plate (Fig. 2).
4. If the hinge mechanism should become
uncocked while changing the door, it
will be necessary to recock the hinge
mechanism. To do this, remove the
door from the cabinet and position the
door face down on a workbench or
table. Using a
5
/16" open end or
adjustable wrench, turn the hinge
mechanism shaft 135° (Fig. 3).
5. Replace the hinge plates and door(s)
in the reverse order of disassembly.
If cabinets are too tall, the refrigeration system may need to be removed in order to pass through short
openings. Contact your dealer or authorized servicer if this becomes necessary.
Once the cabinet is in its final position, replace any components that may have been removed (door
handle, etc.) and then level the cabinet front-to-back and side-to-side by adjusting the legs as required.

Should the doors need to be rehinged (from right to left or vice versa) contact a Hobart-authorized
