To separate the inner rails from the outer and mid rail sub-assemblies:

1. After removing each rail assembly from its packaging, orient the one with the L embossed on it to your left, the rail

assembly with the R embossed on it to your right, and embossed arrows for both pointing up.

2. Examine the rails to distinguish each component, particularly the ball bearing retainer and mid rail.

WARNING!

Carefully inspect the rails. Do not use damaged or warped rails. Return them. Rail failure can allow the

storage enclosure to fall and result in serious injury since the load on them can exceed 300 lb (136 kg).

3. (Optional) Clip an end cap into the slots at the rear outer side of each rail, locking it in place.

4. Extend the mid and inner rail on the outer rail of the left rail assembly until the safety lock engages with a click.

5. Turn the left rail assembly over, then press the safety lock to disengage the inner rail.

6. Slide out the left inner rail until it separates from the outer rail subassembly, setting it aside.

7. Turn the left outer rail subassembly back over, then locate the mid rail release switch.
