1. Install brackets with 3/8" long screw, 3" in from the
end of the frame, two places. Note: If your frame has no
hole 3" in from the end, look for the next hole at 9". Then
move the dual lock on the Slatwall Skin over 9" from the
end. See illustration #2.
2. Use the self-drilling screw to provide a second
attachment point for the bracket. See illustration #2.
3. Attach dual lock pads to brackets with 3/16"long
screws. See illustration #2.
4. Position the Slatwall Skin with the hinge open, (90o)
so that the holes align. Rivet into place using the holes
in the frame. Lower series of holes on the hinge used
only when installing slatwall on the uppermost rail of a
2" Segment. See illustration #1.
Notes:
1. Make sure that the hinge on the slatwall skin does not
cross over the off-module slots in the frame when riveted.
2. Support channels on the back of the "A" skin may need
to be repositioned to miss hardwire (electrical) comp-
onents when installed in the upper beltway zone.

Rotate the Slatwall Skin down. From the front of the skin
slide the middle attachment bracket towards the center
of the skin until the bracket is engaged into the skin
attachment slot in the frame. This is the unlocked position.
See illustration #3 & #4.
NOTE:
1. Use a non-marring tool to slide the bracket.
(See modified plastic packaging corner from 2" or 4"
segment frame on page 4.)
2. AVOID USING FORCE to engage bracket. Refer
to Steps 9 and 10.
7. Once the bracket is engaged into the frame, slide
the middle attachment bracket towards the outside edge
of the skin while forcing the skin flat against the frame
rail until the bracket slot and the skin slot are within
approximately 1/16" as shown. This is the locked
position. See illustration #4.
8. Check to make sure that the bracket is engaged into
the slot in the frame by pulling in the center of the skin.
maximum bow allowed is approximately 1/16".
9. If the bracket does not engage into the slot in the
frame, an adjustment to the lever on the back of the
skin may be necessary. See illustration #5.
10. Manually lift or lower the adjustment lever into a
position that the bracket will engage into the slot in the
frame. See illustration #5.
NOTE: Adjustments cannot be made except by using
the lever. The fasteners that hold the bracket and lever
in place must not be tightened or unfastened at any
time. See illustration #5.

slatwall, it should be removed before attempting to
disengage slatwall.
