Diagram 1. Measure 1-1/2" from one end of the INTERLOCK TRACK (21G). Position the INTERLOCK TRACK as shown.
SAFETY STOP / TRACK ATTACHMENT:
Diagram 2. Tilt the first edge of the INTERLOCK TRACK (21G) into the SAFETY STOP (29G).
Diagram 3. Rotate the INTERLOCK TRACK and apply force to snap the second edge into the SAFETY STOP.
Diagram 4. Repeat the SAFETY STOP / TRACK ATTACHMENT for the next SAFETY STOP while holding the previously
completed SAFETY STOP in its location hole. Repeat these steps until all SAFETY STOPS have been attached. Visually check that
all INTERLOCK TRACK edges have been snapped into the SAFETY STOPS as shown in diagram 3.

Separate the EXTENSION SLIDES (J) from the EXTENSION RAILS (I) as shown in the upper diagram. Be prepared, the parts are
greasy.
Fasten four EXTENSION RAILS (I) to each END (A and B). Use sixteen GOLD 5/16" FLAT HEAD SCREWS (3S).
NOTE: For each EXTENSION RAIL, turn a SCREW into the hole shown in the enlarged diagram. Then, slide the inner
cartridge of the EXTENSION RAIL in to find the other hole that lines up with the hole in the END. Turn a SCREW into this hole.
Push the black lever in and pull the SLIDE from the RAIL.

After fastening the EXTENSION RAILS to the RIGHT END (A),
the SAFETY STOP should touch the top edge of the RAILS. If
the gap is larger than 1/16”, the drawers could lock up and not
open. If this happens, open two drawers at the same time to
override the interlock system. Remove the drawers to re-adjust the
INTERLOCK TRACK assembly.
