ASSEMBLY OF 1842 OR 2442 CABINET
Tools Needed: A free 11/32” nut driver is included with each Tennsco cabinet.
Two people are recommended for assembly. Approximate assembly time: 20-30 minutes.
2. Place the cabinet back (Ref. No. 1) on a protected surface
to prevent scratching the paint. The ange on the bottom of
the back should be facing upward.
1. The reference numbers used throughout this sheet refer to
the illustration on the back cover. This is to help you to
identify the various parts as they are mentioned.
3. Attach the left side (Ref. No. 2) to the back by placing
ange (A) around the back and bolting the back and side
together with four bolts and nuts (Ref. Nos. 15 & 16). Be
sure that the lances on all shelf adjustment strips (B) point in
the same direction.
5. Insert one shelf (Ref. No. 4) into the approximate center
of the unit, inserting the shelf edges into the lances on all
four shelf adjustment strips. Be sure that the channeled
edge of the shelf is toward the cabinet front.
6. Place the second shelf at the desired level in the
same manner as in step 5. Next, attach the door frame
assembly (Ref. No. 6) to the cabinet body by placing
it over the sides. Align the weld studs with the slots in the
left and right sides, and attach using four nuts on each side.
4. Attach the right side (Ref. No. 3) to the back in the same
manner as in step 3, again making sure that the ange
is around the back and that
the lances on the shelf
adjustment strips
are pointed in
the same
direction as
those on the
back and
left side.
All lances point UP on
the back and side.

1. Place the locking handle
(Ref. No. 9) on the right
hand door and fasten with
two #8-32 X 1/4 hex-head
bolts and lock washers,
provided with the handle.
2. Turn the handle to the
open position and
place the locking cam
(Ref. No. 10) over the
square shank of the
door handle. The latch
must be facing downward
as shown. Then place the
locking cotter pin (Ref. No.
12) through the hole of the
square shank.
3. With the handle still in the open position, hook the
locking bars (Ref. No. 8) to the locking cam (see
“A” at left). Once in position, slowly rotate the door
handle to the closed position so the lock bars
prot rude from the holes at the top and bottom
of the door (shown at right, below).
4. Slide the nylon lock bar
guide inserts (Ref. No.
11) over the lock bar
ends and through the
door slots (see “B” at
right). Push down rmly
until the guides snap
into place.
5. Attach the “dummy” handle
(Ref. No. 13) using two
#8-32 X 1/4 hex-head bolts
and lock washers.

7. Set the unit upright and attach the top (Ref. No. 5) by inserting
the weld-studs into the holes provided on the left and right
sides. The ange should t over the outside of the rear of the
cabinet, and theoffset should be toward the front. Bolt
together by attaching nuts to the weld studs and inserting
bolts and nuts through the holes along the back edge.
8. Open the doors and place the bottom (Ref. No. 4) in the
lowest notch of the shelf adjusting strips on the sides and
back. The ange with the two holes nust face the front,
and t over the base plate of the frame. Shelves may now
be adjusted as desired.



9. Cabinet must be level for doors to
open and close properly. Insert a
athead screwdriver into the two
leveling holes and turn the screws
until the cabinet is level.
