Yes, there are two more screw holes on the bottom right side of the Insignia 5 cu ft garage ready chest freezer. You can buy four caster wheels and screw them into these holes to make the freezer more portable. The screw-in pegs on the bottom left side of the freezer are for balance purposes. They help to prevent the freezer from tipping over. If you screw in the caster wheels, you can remove the pegs. When choosing caster wheels, make sure that they are the right size for the freezer. The wheels should also be rated for the weight of the freezer. Here are the steps on how to install caster wheels on the Insignia 5 cu ft garage ready chest freezer: Remove the two screw-in pegs on the bottom left side of the freezer. Screw in the caster wheels into the holes. Make sure that the caster wheels are level. Here are some safety tips to keep in mind when installing caster wheels: Make sure that the freezer is unplugged and empty before you start. Be careful not to overtighten the screws, as this could damage the freezer. Test the freezer to make sure that it is stable on the caster wheels. With the caster wheels installed, you can easily move the freezer around your garage or other storage area. This can be helpful for cleaning or making space for other items.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thank you. I just sat the whole thing on top of a dolly.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Although there are 4 holes in each corner that look possible to accept caster wheels I could not find caster wheels to fit the holes at my local hardware stores (in the US). The spacing is 1 7/16" and square whereas most caster wheels have a rectangular spacing. Then one needs to find screws to fit the threads (which is probably easier than finding caster wheels to fit). Instead I'm making a plywood base to attach standard caster wheels.
