MOUNTING DRAWER-SLIDE CABINET MEMBERS
¾-Extension and Full-Extension Drawer Slides
ATTENTION
Do not use the Brackets when installing the drawer members of ¾-extension drawer slides with
flanges that extend under the sides of the drawers. In this case, turn the drawer upside down on your workbench
and install the drawer members, observing the manufacturer's setback distance from the front of the drawer.
Position the Brackets
• Extend the Upper Slider on each bracket.
• Position Bracket A on the left side of the
cabinet and Bracket B on the right side,
with both Brackets extending out from the
face of the cabinet.
• Place the Upper Slider on the top edge of
the face-frame rail that is under the drawer
opening.
• Clamp the Brackets to the face frame.
Fasten the Drawer-Slide Drawer Members
• Place the drawer box on the Brackets with
the front of the box aligned with Line 1 on
the top face of each bracket.
• Extend the drawer slides. Follow the
drawer-slide manufacturer's instructions
for the slide setback distance from the
front of the drawer box.
• Using the mounting holes in the drawer-
slide drawer members as guides, drill pilot
holes for the front and middle screws and
screw the slides to the drawer box.
• For ¾-extension drawer slides, remove the
drawer from the cabinet. Using the rear
mounting holes as guides, drill pilot holes
and drive the screws.
• For full-extension drawer slides, extend
the drawer all the way. Using the rear
mounting holes as guides, drill pilot holes
and drive the screws.
• Remove the Brackets from the cabinet.
• Check the drawer operation and adjust the
position of the drawer box as necessary by
adjusting the position of the drawer-slide
cabinet members. When satisfied with the
fit, use the round holes in the drawer-slide
cabinet members as guides to drill pilot
holes and drive screws to fix the drawer
box position.
