levers, hold drawer level and pull drawer toward you. This
should disengage drawer from File Center unit.
 Set drawer aside and slide drawer channels back into case.

End Panel Information
Refer to Figure G.
 Full End Panels include brackets for attaching to worksur-
face.
 Return Support Panels are less than full depth and secure
directly to the worksurface. They are used to create a re-
turn.
 All end panels are predrilled to secure Modesty Panel.
NOTE: Install Full End Panel first, since it is fully loadbear-
ing. When installing Return Support Panel, use caution in turn-
ing assembled worksurface upright, since it is less than full
depth support.
1. Facing the Pedestal, determine where the Modesty Panel
will attach to the Pedestal: on the left or right side.
2. Drill the four holes, left OR right, using a 1/8" bit.
NOTE: If future reconfiguration is expected, a Pedestal
Non- Deface Kit can be ordered to attach Modesty Panel
to the Pedestal without drilling into the Pedestal. See Price
