INTRODUCTION – 
 
 
The Hussmann Model GSVM open
vertical merchandiser offers versatility in 
the display of medium temperature (35-
41ºF) products such as diary products, 
prepared salads, pizza and fresh entrees 
that are pre-chilled in a cooler. 
 
 
So that you can realize maximum
benefit from this fine piece of equipment 
we urge both you and your installer to 
carefully read and follow this brief set of 
instructions prior to installation of the 
equipment. 
 
INSPECTION – 
 
 
The equipment has been skidded
and crated prior to shipment from the 
factory. It is the carrier’s responsibility to 
deliver it to you in good condition until 
such time as you sign for it. 
 
 
Upon receipt of the cabinet,
examine the packaging for damage. If the 
packaging is damaged, make specific 
notation on the delivery ticket as to the 
location and extent of damage prior to 
signing for the piece. 
 
 
Carefully remove packaging and
examine the cabinet for damage. If 
damage is found, contact the delivering 
carrier immediately and request that his 
agent prepare an inspection report for the 
purpose of filing a claim. THIS IS YOUR 
RESPONSIBILITY, NOT THE 
FACTORY’S. 
 
 
Save all packaging materials and
move the cabinet as little as possible prior 
to inspection. 
 
LOCATION and CLEARANCE – 
 
 
It is important that careful
consideration be given to locating the 
cabinet away from an area where direct 
sunlight would shine into the fixture, or 
where drafts from air conditioning grilles, 
fans, and open doors could affect its 
operation. 
 
 
The GSVM4060 and 4072 have
front condenser air intake and discharge. 
A minimum distance of two feet must be 
left open in front of the case so that air 
discharge and intake to the condensing 
unit is not obstructed. 
 
 
The GSVM5272 model requires a
5" minimum clearance behind the case 
and clear above the case since it has 
straight through condenser air flow. 
Brackets are provided for field 
attachment to obtain the 5" spacing. 
 
SKID – 
 
 
The skid should be left on the
cabinet until it is near its final location. 
The skid provides protection for both case 
and floor. 
 
 
The skid is removed by raising one
end of the case approx. 6", block securely 
and remove the 2 skid bolts on the raised 
end – then screw back into the holes 2 leg 
levelers.
