ble. Doors should be opened only when necessary in order to
keep food at proper temperature and prevent contamination of
foods from outside sources.
2. A magnetic catch for each door, is located on the side of the
cart for loading and unloading. The door will rotate 270° and lie
flat on the side of the cart.

obstructions.

RECOMMENDED TIPS FOR CLEANING STAINLESS STEEL
CHANGING THE RACK LOCATION
The tray racks are adjustable to accommodate
various tray dimensions, by relocating the pin
positions at the top and bottom of the cart.
There are three pin positions for each rack.
1) Remove the racks from the cart
2) Determine the width required for your tray
3) Using a screwdriver, pry off the black plastic
plugs (4) over the holes (4) for the spacing
you need.
4) Using a wrench, unscrew the pins and move
them to the desired positions and screw into
the new positions.
5) Replace the plastic plug into the now vacant
unused holes.
