Thetford 1210 Series AC - Through 09/07 - Manual (Page 15)

Installation Manual 15
When manually (by hand) or mechanically (by hoist , lift truck, etc.) handling a
refrigerator that is not installed in an enclosure, the best method is while the
refigerator is in it’s original packaging.
If the refrigerator is not in it’s original packaging, use the sides, the edges, and/or
the corners of the refrigerator cabinet as the primary load carrying points.
There are two (2) areas of the cooling unit that may be used as handling points
[122] (See Art01754). These handling points may be used only to tilt or to steady
the refrigerator. When tilting the refrigerator, Norcold recommends that you have a
another person hold the refrigerator cabinet.
CAUTION: Do not lift or drag the refrigerator by using either or both of
the two (2) handling points. Damage to the refrigerator cooling unit can
result.
- Put the refrigerator completely into the enclosure:
- Push below the center of the refrigerator.
- Pull using a wire-form tool hooked into mounting holes [121] of the
refrigerator frame (See Art01753).
1. Put the refrigerator in position:
NOTE: Be careful when you put the refrigerator into position. The refrigerator has vacuum
insulating panels on the top and sides. If punctured, these panels lose insulation
value which decreases the cooling performance of the refrigerator. It is not neces-
sary to remove the protective packaging from the doors of metal door models to
install or operate the refrigerator.
- Make sure that the flue cap is not pushed down against the top of the flue tube.
- Push the refrigerator into the enclosure so the side trim is approximately one inch from
the wall.
