Door(s) and hinges can be removed, as follows:
1. Lift up and remove the
front trim panel (Fig. 2).
2. Remove the screws
which secure the trim
rail cover (Fig. 2),
unplug the door switch
lead wires and remove
the screws which secure
the trim rail (Fig. 2).
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. 3).
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. 3).
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 work table. Using a
5
/16" open
end or adjustable wrench, turn the hinge
mechanism shaft 135° (Fig. 4).
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 using shims as required.
Before installing the ramp or flat threshold, seal between the bottom of the cabinet perimeter and the
floor by applying a bead of NSF-approved sealant, such as Dow Corning 732 or GE RTV108.
Cabinets equipped with flat threshold(s) must have a recessed floor (Fig. 5). The recessed floor should
be 1
3
/8" deep. This allows
1
/4" for leveling shims.
