The MasterFile pins and posts are aligned by 

leveling, as follows. After placing your MasterFile 

in position, raise lid and 

pull the drawer 

completely open

Unscrew and remove  E  Stabilizer Knobs at

When filing or retrieving, roll 

the drawer out of the main 

cabinet to a point where 

about two inches of the 

pins remain in the posts of 

the cabinet.

Insert the  J  Drawing Selector 

behind the desired drawing 

so the notches ride on cabinet 

posts. Use the Selector to 

move the groups of drawings 

from posts to pins.

When selected drawings 

are on the pins, roll the 

entire drawer away from the 

cabinet 

as far as it will go, 

disengaging the pins from 

the posts.

The space between pins and 

posts permit filing or removal 

without rubbing on adjacent 

drawings. Remove drawings 

from the side or the top. Always 

handle by carrier strips – not 

drawings. Drawings transfer to 

posts when cabinet is closed.

NOTE:

  ALL MASTERFILES MUST BE LEVELED SIDE-TO-SIDE AND FRONT-TO-BACK.

BEFORE RELOCATING UNIT, POSITION LEVELERS FULLY UPWARD.
