Step 7. SLIDE AND DRAWER ASSEMBLY
Note: This unit may be equipped with either I-beam friction slides
or ball-bearing slides. Refer to the appropriate instructions below.
I-Beam Friction Slides
Each drawer requires six slide parts, See Fig. 8:
a. one 270 DR LH; one 270 DR RH—attaches to drawer
b. one FE LH; one FE RH—attaches to inner panel
c. two male slides with springs
Note: LH/RH refers to Left and Right Hand—part numbers are
marked on a. & b.
1. Insert rear horizontal tab of b. (FE RH) into back square hole
second row from top on right side inner panel. Line up center and
front tabs with matching square holes and snap down into place,
locking in the slide.
2. Repeat above step 1 on left side inner panel.
3. Attach a. 270 DR LH and RH (left hand and right hand) to drawer
sides, inserting rear horizontal tab into back square hole. Line up
center and front tabs with matching square holes and snap up into
place. Repeat with remaining drawers.
4. Insert c. (male slides) fully into channel of inner panel slides so
that spring at back of unit faces drawer and front spring faces inner
panel. See Fig. 10. Make sure spring stop is engaged. (This prevents
drawer from being pulled all the way out of unit).
5. Pull male slides, left and right, partially out—align drawer to male
slides—insert male slides into drawer slides and rmly push drawer
all the way in for engagement.
Ball-Bearing Slides
Each drawer requires one ball-bearing slide set consisting of one
right and one left hand triple member ball-bearing slide. See Fig. 11.
Note: Large side of slide attaches to inner panel while smaller
member detaches and then is xed to drawer. Both have one
horizontal and one vertical facing locking tab.
1. Insert rear horizontal tab (closest to black plastic detente) on large
member into back square hole second row from top on right side
inner panel. Align front tab with matching square hole and snap
down into place, locking in the slide. (Note: If front tab faces up,
you incorrectly have the left side slide).
2. Repeat above procedure 1 on left side panel.
3. Starting at right side panel, fully extend slide small member
(drawer side). Depress plastic release lever and remove member.
Install it on drawer right side by inserting rear horizontal tab into
drawer rear square hole. Align front tab to matching hole and snap
up into place, locking in the slides.
4. Repeat procedure on left side of drawer.
5. Align drawer slide members with inner panel slides, inserting
them back into place. Push drawer evenly all the way into slide and
pull out to make sure slide members are correctly joined.
Step 11. Install Drawer Pull
1. Attach drawer pull (L)—see Fig. 1—with two hex head slotted
screws (M) per drawer, using a at-tip screwdriver.
