snaps [126] of the door (See Art01805).
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 refi gerator is in its original packaging.
If the refrigerator is not in its original packaging, use the handling straps [183] of the refrigerator cabinet as the primary load carrying
points (See Art0290). There are two (2) handling straps on both the right and left side of the refrigerator cabinet.
These handling straps may be used to lift, move, and tilt the refrigerator. Norcold recommends that all lifting, moving, and tilting of the
refrigerator is always done by at least 2 persons.
Use only the handling straps to lift, move, or tilt the
refrigerator. Using any part of the refrigerator other
than the handing straps, to lift, move, or tilt it can
result in damage to the refrigerator.
1. Remove the packaging support block (See Art01850):
- Open both lower doors of the refrigerator.

mounting fl ange of the refrigerator.
- Tilt the refrigerator back just enough to remove the wooden packaging
support block [209] from behind the lower mounting fl ange.
- Close the doors.
2. Put the refrigerator completely into the enclosure:
- Push below the center of the refrigerator.
