Abstract

See full text

An appliance, such as a cooling unit, has its installation adjustment provided at a front side of its cabinet. The adjustment features can include a mechanism for adjusting the height of the back side of the cabinet from the front as well as a toe kick grille that provides front-to-back and height adjustment from the front. Specifically, a flexible connector transfers rotational input applied to an adjuster interface located at a front side of the cabinet to one or more rear legs to raise or lower the back side of the cabinet. And a front-to-back slidable kick panel mounts a floor gate, which itself can slide up and down. A method of installing an appliance provides leveling the cabinet, including adjusting the rear legs, and positioning a toe kick, all from the front side of the cabinet.
