HINGE REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT

Before attempting any work on your refrigerator or freezer,

always disconnect power by unplugging the cabinet, or switch-

ing off the circuit breaker. It is strongly recommended that you

also remove all contents and store them in a walk-in or other

refrigerated space. The following tools are needed to remove

the hinge: plastic putty knife and philips screwdriver with large

(#3) tip.

To remove the hinge pin from the door (see Figure 8A) loosen

the adjustment screws and remove the adjustment plate and pin.

To remove the hinge base from the face of the cabinet loosen

the (3) flat-head machine screws. Use caution when removing

the top hinge base, as it contains the light switch. To remove the

lock keeper from the cabinet, remove the 2 screws on the inside

edge of the keeper (see Figure 8) and slide it off the base. If the

white, nylon cam needs to be removed from the hinge base, a

plastic putty knife may be used to carefully pry the cam out of

the body. Be careful not to damage the cam, as the nylon mate-

rial is soft.

RE-HINGING DOORS (Reach-Ins)

Single section, solid long door models are rehingeable in the

field, without the need to modify the cabinet. A plastic putty

knife, a philips screwdriver and wire crimpers will be needed.

Before attempting to rehinge your unit, unload all contents and

store in walk-in or other refrigerated space. Disconnect power

to the cabinet. Open the door 90° and lift it off the hinge bases.

Remove the hinge pins from the door (see instructions above).

Reverse each pin by rotating it 180° and reattaching to the door.

Remove the hinge bases and lock keeper(s) from the front of the

cabinet (see above). Use caution when removing the top hinge

base, as it contains the light switch. Remove the white, nylon

cam from each hinge base and reverse it by rotating 180° and

pressing firmly back in place. (A plastic putty knife may be used

to carefully pry the cam out of the base without damaging it).

Remove the filler screws and plug button from the face of the

cabinet, on the opposite side (new hinge locations). Wires for

connecting the light switch will be coiled up in the insulation,

behind the plug button. Carefully pull the wires out and install

female push-on connectors. Remove the old light switch from

the original top hinge location by disconnecting the push-on wire

terminals. Cap each lead wire separately, push the wires into the

insulation and insert the plug button into the hole. Connect the

light switch to the wire terminals at the new top hinge location.

DOOR REMOVAL AND ADJUSTMENT

During installation, it may become necessary to remove the

cabinet doors to facilitate passage through narrow doorways or

hallways. To remove a door, carefully pry off all hinge covers

using a sharp tool or plastic putty knife (see Figure 8). Swing

the door open 90° and carefully lift the door up, so the hinge

pins attached to the door clear the hinge bases mounted to

the cabinet. If it is necessary to remove the hinges, follow the

instructions below. To reinstall the door, reverse the above pro-

cedure. (For glass doors, see “Optional Accessories”).

All doors are aligned at the factory, however vibration during

transit may cause doors to shift and adjustment may be neces-

sary. If the door(s) require realignment, carefully pry off all hinge

covers (see Figure 8A) using a sharp tool or plastic putty knife.

Loosen the screws securing the hinge bases to the face of the

cabinet and slide the door into alignment. Hold the door firmly

in place and tighten all screws securely.

If the door gasket(s) do not seal properly to the cabinet face

or there are gaps between the gasket and the face on the hinge

side, adjust the door seal by removing the hinge covers and

loosening the adjustment screws securing the hinge pin to the

door. Push the face of the door towards the face of the cabinet,

so the gasket firmly contacts the cabinet. Do not press the door

too tight against the cabinet, or the gasket will pinch along the

hinge side and the door will not close and seal properly. Hold

the door firmly in place and tighten all screws securely. Open

and close the door several times to check that the gasket seals

properly all the way around the door. Re-adjust if necessary.
