NOTE: DOORS ON DISPENSER MODELS
DO NOT REVERSE.
When reversing the door swing:
• Read the instructions all the way through
before starting.
• Handle parts carefully to avoid scratching paint.
• Set screws down by their related parts to avoid
using them in the wrong places.
• Provide a non-scratching work surface for
the doors.
IMPORTANT: Once you begin, do not move
cabinet until door-swing reversal is completed.
These instructions are for changing the
hinges from the right side to the left side.
If you ever want to change the hinges back to the
right side, follow these same instructions (merely
reverse all references to left and right).
