Unfortunatelythe example on this page is the way many installers are

The
y may believe that they are using the correct method by
putting the chain through a hole into the adjacent cabinet and screwing the
chain to the back wall but it will not work if not done properly
.
Putting the chain into the adjacent cabinet is the preferred method

there is no slack
