Using the Jig
1. Make a mark on the face frame or front edge of the
cabinet to indicate where the bottom of the installed
slide will be. You will use this mark to align the jig.
2. Place the slide’s cabinet member on the appropriate side
of the jig, taking care to orient it as it will be installed in
the cabinet. Make sure the front of the slide is tight
against the setback stop. Then slide the Locking Wedge
down to secure the slide cabinet member in the jig.

described above), position the jig and hold or clamp
it in place.
