INSTALLATION
1.
Depress the blue tab on one of the inner slides and remove from outer
slide.
2.
Attach it to the instrument bracket using (2) 8-32 button head screws
in the front two holes.
The front two holes on the instrument bracket
will align with the front two holes on any length slide kit.
3.
Install the third 8-32 button head screw in the rear hole of the inner
slide and instrument bracket. (
Figure A
)
The third hole alignment may
differ depending on which slide kit you are using.
4.
Attach the remaining inner slide to the other side of the instrument
bracket.
5.
Reinstall the inner slides to the rack installed slides.
• Slide the left mid-section of the slide all the way out, you will feel it
lock into position.
• Feed the matching inner slide into position and ensure the inner
section slides into place with the roller bearings seated in the
groove.
• Push the inner slide in about 6-8 inches and then pull out the right
side. Slide the track of the mid-section over the right side of the
inner slide.
• Pull the slide out until the position matches the left side.
• Reach to the back of the middle slides and release the spring
locking mechanism (
Figure B
).
6.
At this time, both sides should be partially installed. This is indicated
when neither side is able to proceed into the rack because the support
tab on the instrument brackets is hitting the slide mounting bracket.
7.
Rotate both instrument brackets inward so the support tabs can pass
the mounting brackets. Push and install both slides simultaneously
into position. Be sure to push in the blue tabs to allow the inner tabs to
travel into the middle slide section.
NOTE:
The middle section will not go into the outer section until the
inner section has been fully installed into the middle section.
8.
Tighten the slide mounting screws.
