NOTE: Do not bolt/screw the Lid to the Top Plate. 

Use  

the provided Tapered Pins to attach the Lid to the lift  
system. The Tapered Pins allow the lid to lift away  
when there is an obstruction.

 

See pages 17 and 18  

for details. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

The Top Plate is a 5-part plate (one Main Plate, two Extensions and two Fine-tuning Plates) that allows you to 
adjust the depth and position of the plate relative to the Threaded Tapered Pins (Steps 22-27).  The Top Plate 
comes pre-assembled in a semi-retracted configuration.  If you need to expand the depth of the plate to 
accommodate a deeper cabinet lid, remove the flat head machine screws from the Extensions, move them to 
the depth you need, and re-insert the machine screws.  Fully retracted, the Top Plate has a depth of 6 ½”, and 
can be adjusted to 7 ½” and 8 ½” with the Extensions on either end of the plate.  (See Photo Below)
