What's in the Box

The TRUE 870828 Bottom Right Door Hinge Kit includes the following components:

• Replacement Part

Setup and Installation

Tools Required:

• Screwdriver (appropriate type for hinge fasteners)
• Wrench (if applicable for hinge bolts)
• Pry tool (optional, for removing old hinge)

Installation Steps:

1. Prepare the Appliance: Ensure the refrigeration unit is unplugged from its power source. Open the door to access the bottom right hinge.
2. Support the Door: Have a second person support the door, or use appropriate blocking to prevent it from falling once the hinge is removed.
3. Remove the Old Hinge: Carefully unscrew and remove all fasteners securing the existing bottom right hinge to both the door and the appliance frame. Remove the old hinge.
4. Position the New Hinge: Align the TRUE 870828 replacement hinge with the mounting holes on the appliance frame and the door.
5. Secure the New Hinge: Insert and hand-tighten the fasteners to secure the new hinge. Once all fasteners are in place, tighten them firmly but do not overtighten.
6. Test Door Operation: Carefully open and close the door several times to ensure smooth movement and proper alignment. Adjust fasteners if necessary to achieve optimal door closure.
7. Restore Power: Once the hinge is securely installed and the door operates correctly, plug the appliance back into its power source.

Operating

After installation, the door should open and close smoothly without binding or excessive force. Ensure the door seals properly when closed to maintain the internal temperature of the refrigeration unit. If the door does not seal correctly, check the hinge alignment and adjust as needed.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps prolong the life of your hinge and ensures efficient appliance operation.

• Cleaning: Periodically wipe down the hinge with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Inspection: Routinely check the hinge for any signs of wear, damage, or loose fasteners. Tighten any loose screws immediately.
• Lubrication: If the hinge begins to squeak, a small amount of food-grade lubricant can be applied to the pivot points.

Troubleshooting

Door Not Closing Properly:

• Check if the hinge is properly aligned and all fasteners are tight.
• Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing fully.

Door Squeaks:

• Apply a small amount of food-grade lubricant to the hinge pivot points.
• Check for any loose components that might be causing friction.
