Installation
Serious injury, equipment damage or death could result if attempting to install
this unit yourself. Ensure that an authorized BKI service agent installs this unit.
Unpacking and Handling
YOU are responsible for filling all freight claims with the delivering truck line. Inspect all cartons and
crates for damage as soon as they arrive. If damage to cartons or crates is found, or if a shortage is
found, note this on the bill of lading (all copies) prior to signing.
If damage is found when the equipment is opened, immediately call the delivering truck line and follow up
the call with a written report indicating concealed damage to your shipment. Ask for an immediate
inspection of your concealed damage item. Packaging material MUST be retained to show the inspector
from the truck line.
Do not walk on top of deli cases or damage to the cases and serious personal
injury could occur. The cases are not structurally designed to support excessive
external loading such as the weight of a person. Do not place heavy objects on
the deli cases.
Move the deli case as close as possible to its permanent location before moving the case off of the
shipping pallet. Shipping braces are installed on each end of the deli case. Leave these braces in place
while moving and leveling the deli case.
Make certain there are no separately packed accessories before discarding packaging.
During shipment, the lubricant in the gas springs may have settled. This can cause the glass not to
remain open in the raised position. To avoid this, fully raise and lower the glass manually 4 or 5 times.
This unit is designed to be sealed to the floor after it is installed – to conform to
NSF Standard 4. Use Dow Corning RTV # 732 Multi-purpose Sealant.

carpenter’s level as shown in Figure 1. Begin lineup leveling from the highest point of the store floor.
1. Level the case using the leg levelers at the corners of the case (Figure 1).
2. Raise the low end of the case, 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 1.
NOTE: None of the end components shown in Figure 2 should be attached to adjoining case
ends
If the cases have been properly leveled, the front panels and counter tops should align with a
