Introduction
This installation manual was written to assist with the installation of
Thermo King MD-200 & MD-300 systems onto truck bodies specifically
designed and built for refrigerated applications.
Due to its complexity, you should not attempt this installation unless you:
• Are an experienced mechanic
• Can safely lift 34 kilos (75 lbs)
• Are certified and trained in the repair and maintenance of diesel
powered refrigeration systems.
• Have a basic understanding of electricity and electrical wiring
• Have the necessary tools and equipment to complete the installation.

Lifting Bar Details
IMPORTANT: The T-600, T-800 and T-1000 series truck units require a
new lifting bar. This new bar must be used to safely lift and install the
T-600, T-800 and T-1000 series units. This new lifting bar can also be
used to install earlier series truck units.
