Step 2 –Place Bottom Shelf
Shelves can be assembled with flanges pointing up to retain shelf contents, or flanges pointing down to
allow the installation of drawer cabinets. Decide which option you want for each shelf before attaching it to
the sides. The beveled corner of each Shelf Side is in the back. Each Shelf, front side only has nuts pressed
into the Shelf flange. Make sure the shelf is oriented properly (nuts in front) before attaching.
Press the shelf down firmly so that is resting solidly and level on the lances in the shelf sides.
Attach the front of the shelf to each side using two 1/4”x 3/8” pan head screws.
On the left is most applications, on the right shows the bottom shelf for a Ram Promaster.
