attach each door and
. is to fit the top hinge
first, then align and fit the

hinge plate .
The recess at the bottom
of screw B goes into the
slot in the hinge plate.
b: Keep the hinge
FLAT against the hinge

Tighten screw A.
c: The hinge must be
flat against the hinge
plate prior to any

Remove the hinge from
the hinge plate and then
re-assemble being
