• Maximum keyboard tray width not exceeding 24
inches.
• Cabinet members must be mounted parallel
to each other and perpendicular to the work

Installation
Step 1 Identification.
Unpack the slides and identify the left hand and right
hand slides. The mounting plates are welded to the
outside of the (larger) cabinet members. The
keyboard tray will fit flush against the side of the
(smaller) drawer members. See figure 1. The right
angle mounting brackets are packaged with left and
right hand slides unattached.

Step 2 Separate parts.
Press the lever and pull to separate the cabinet and
drawer members as shown in Figure 2.
Step 3 Adjust brackets.
Set the adjustable brackets to the desired height
as shown in figure 3. The brackets may face either
inwards or outwards. See diagram on back page for
height dimension.
Step 4 Install cabinet members.
Mount the cabinet members to the underside of the
case as shown in figure 4. Refer to drawing on back
cover for mounting hole dimensions. Hole location
varies dependent on whether the brackets face
inwards or outwards. Fasten screws only through
the front slotted holes. Additional screws must be
added through the other holes after final adjustment.
NOTE: The center slotted holes are for front-to-back
adjustment. The other slotted holes are for side-to-
side adjustment.
Step 5 Install drawer members.
Mount the drawer members to the side of the
keyboard tray as shown in figure 5. Refer to drawing
on front cover for mounting hole dimensions. Fasten
screws only through the slotted holes. Additional
screws must be added through the round holes after
final adjustment.
Step 6 Assembly.
First, check that the ball retainers are held in the
forward position. Insert the drawer members into the
cabinet members as shown in figure 6. Close the
drawer completely. The force to close the drawer
may be more than normal the last few inches,
as the ball bearings must slip into the correct syn-
chronous position.
Step 7 Check and adjust installation.
Open the drawer and check for proper operation.
Make adjustments as needed. Then install
additional screws in the round holes. Securely
tighten all screws.
