Tip: The more you use your
shelf the easier the spring
buttons will pop into place.
2c: To operate, lift the shelf
upward until the spring buttons
pop into the shelf side holes.
2b: Adjust the shelf frame
so you have enough
clearance when opening
and closing the shelf. You
may need to adjust the
frame outward 1/16” or
less to prevent the shelf
from hitting the frame
during operation. The
bolt hole is cut oblong
to accommodate this
adjustment.
