Assembly and Installation Instructions for

Tandem Seat Slide Models 74001, 74002, 74003

Form 12.507

ASSEMBLY INFORMATION

Read instructions thoroughly before starting assembly and
installation.
Because of the wide variety of possible installations, mounting
hardware is not supplied. 

Recommended fasteners should be

#14 or #16 stainless steel wood screws long enough to
penetrate approximately 3/4 to 7/8 of the thickness of the
seat substrate but not long enough to protrude through it as
they may cause injury if sat upon.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS FOR 74001

Refer to Fig. 1

1. Remove slide rails and cross bar from packaging. Remove

1 screw from each end of the cross bar.

2. Install the cross bar between the release handles of the

slide rails by placing one rubber washer on both sides of
each handle, aligning the holes and inserting a screw to
fasten into the ends of the cross bar. 

Do not over tighten as

the rubber must flex to allow for movement of the cross
bar.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS FOR 74001, 74002, 74003

Refer to Fig. 2 and Fig. 3.

1. Turn the seat upside down to expose the seat bottom; center

seat slide rails left-to-right and front-to-back. For models
74002 and 74003 determine which side is preferred for
the release handle and then set the rails approximately 4"
in from each side of the seat. Use a tape measure to assure
that the rails are parallel to each other. 

This is critical to the

operation of the sliding action.

Mark 3 or 4 holes in each

rail, depending on model of unit being installed, onto the
seat bottom.

2. Drill 6 or 8 pilot holes, depending on model of unit being

installed, of suitable size for the screws to be used. Fasten
rails to seat bottom finger tight. 

Measure between the rails

front and back to assure the rails are parallel before final
tightening of the screws. Record this measurement for
later reference.

3. Set the slide adjustment to the middle setting so there is

equal upper slide extrusion extending from either end of
the lower slide extrusion. Turn the seat right side up.

4. Determine the desired location for mounting the seat. If the

surface is covered in carpeting, place a piece of cardboard
or poster board over the area and secure with tape.
Position the seat in the desired location, keeping in mind
the seat will slide approximately 3” fore and aft. Mark the
4 outside comers of the lower slide extrusions on the
cardboard. Remove the seat and turn it upside down.
