FASTENERS in this step.
15F
Meet Part (A2). This component has
been engineered to be lighter, stronger,
faster… well ok. Not technically faster.
But definitely makes for a sturdier
Credenza that’s easier to assemble
and friendlier to the environment.

å NOTE: You have the option to fasten the RAILS to one of three sets of holes as shown. Measure your component that
will be sitting on the SLIDING SHELF and the distance from the RAIL screw hole to the top of the END to be sure the
component will fit in your unit.
å Separate the EXTENSION SLIDES (35MC) from the EXTENSION RAILS (35MA) as shown in the upper diagram below. Be
prepared, the parts are greasy.
å Fasten the EXTENSION RAILS (35MA) to the RIGHT END (A2) and UPRIGHT (P). Use four GOLD 5/16" FLAT HEAD
SCREWS (3S) through holes #1 and #3.
å 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 and UPRIGHT. Turn a
SCREW into this hole.
å NOTE: The EXTENSION SLIDES (35MC) will be used later for the SLIDING SHELF.

Push the black lever in and pull the SLIDE from the RAIL.
