Typical Corner Intersection
with Pedestal Support
Installation (cont.)
3. Carefully place worksurface
onto the installed cantilever
bracket, support bracket (if
used) and the pedestal. Align
mounting holes of the installed
brackets to pre-drilled holes
in underside of worksurface.
Secure using two #12 x

screws per bracket. Take care
to not over-tighten screws
(Figure 26).
Note:
If installing a double
pedestal (not shown), no holes
have been pre-drilled into the
underside of the worksurface
for installation. Once the
double pedestal is aligned square,
use the pedestal mounting holes
as a template, and pre-drill using
1

8
” drill bit, to depth of
1
/
2
” into
underside of worksurface. Take
care to not drill too deep.
4. To install pedestal to underside
of worksurface, align pre-drilled
holes in the worksurface with
mounting holes of the pedestal.
Take care to assure that the front
and side of the pedestal is flush
with the edges of the worksuface
as illustrated (Figure 26).
Note:
If a Knife Edge worksurface
is being installed, the pedestal
will be set back from the front
edge of worksurface.
5. Once mounting holes are aligned
and cabinet is square, secure
pedestal to worksurface using
four #14 x

” screws
(Figure 26).
6. To keep worksurfaces level,
install a small splice plate
between adjacent worksurfaces
as illustrated. Reference
“
Perpendicular 24”-30” Deep
Worksurface Connections with
74P Edge” instructions on
page 5 for splice plate installation
(Figure 26).
7. Re-install pedestal drawers by
first extending suspensions
out of cabinet. Slide the rear
slip connection together
by aligning the tab of
the suspension with the
corresponding slot in the
drawer body. Hold suspension
firmly while pushing the
drawer, making sure the
slip connection is together
properly.
8. With the rear slip connection
in place correctly, the front
connection tabs will align and
the drawer can be pushed
down and snapped securely
into place.
