5. Turn the upper worksurface to 

the upright position and set into 

place on the lower worksurface 

and cantilever bracket, carefully 

guiding the installed L-bracket 

between the edge of the lower 

worksurface and the Unite panel. 

Press in on the panel to allow the 

L-bracket to pass through, taking 

care to not damage the panel 

material or the lower worksurface 

(Figure 15).

6. At the non change-of-height end, 

align the pre-drilled mounting 

holes in the worksurface 

underside with the holes in the 

cantilever bracket and secure with

7. Working under the lower 

worksurface at the 

  change-of-height end, engage 

the tang of the lock bracket into 

the slot of the L-bracket that 

protrudes below the worksurface 

underside. Gently push in on the 

tile material to give the tang of 

the lock bracket room to rotate up 

to be flush with the worksurface 

underside. Carefully drill two
