Shelf Installation

The installation process for each shelf is identical. The shelves must be installed on the same

horizontal level. In the following section, inner side illustrations feature the left shelf and outer side

illustrations feature the right shelf.

Perform the following procedure for each shelf:

1. If applicable, verify that both locking mechanism latches on the shelf are open (Figure 6: Left Shelf

– Inner View, insets A and B). Racks that do not require the locking mechanism, skip to Step 2.

2. Attach the front side of the shelf to its corresponding front rack post by inserting the shelf-side rack

plugs and guide pins into post slots (Figure 10: Attaching the Right Shelf).

The shelf ledge must be between the front posts. If the rack plugs were previously removed or not

present, use bolts to attach the shelf to the rack, and skip to Step 4..
