Before placing this cabinet into service, please operate this unit for 30
minutes at 250°F. This procedure will remove any residual oils which
may adhere to the metal surfaces during the manufacturing process.
To cool down the cabinet, turn off the power and open the doors for
about 15 minutes. You may notice a slight emission of smoke which is
normal during this start-up procedure. Cabinet is now ready for normal
operation.
Do not locate this unit under an overbead ventilation system or close

Some casters are equipped with Zerk grease fittings so that they may
be easily lubricated with a grease gun. Recommended lubrication is at
least once every six months. Lubrication will be required more
frequently if carts are cleaned with a hot water or steam cleaning
system. Casters with special bearings are recommended for frequent
cart wash or steam cleaning situations.
Check frequently to insure that all door latches are secure. Latches may
become "sticky" due to residue buildup from daily use and cleaning.
Lubricate latches regularly with WD-40, silicone spray, graphite or other
commercial lubricants for stainless steel products. Do not use oil.
