Step 5. Surface Preparation
Depending on whether the bracket direction is inward or
outward- Use the dimensions provided on this sheet to
layout the hole locations on the surface before drilling.
Drill 4 pilot holes, for #8 x 5/8" screws, into the underside
of the surface.
Step 6. Mounting
Attach the slide cabinet members to the underside of the
surface, using #8 x 5/8" screws provided in the hardware
kit. For now, only put screws in the front side to side slot-
ted holes.
Step 7. Installation
With the slides mounted, first pull the ball bearings to the
front end. Then insert the keyboard tray subassembly into
the slides and push tray completely to closed position as
shown in figure 4. (It is normal to encounter some resist-
ant force when inserting the tray and closing it for the first
time as the ball bearings must skid into place the last
25% of the travel.)
Step 8. Adjustment
Open and close the keyboard slowly. Check that nothing
is binding and that the tray latches in the open position.
(The latch is to hold the tray stationary during typing. To
close the tray, just push.) Carefully loosen screws in sur-
face and adjust slides as needed. Tighten screws secure-
ly and add additional screws through the center front to
rear slotted holes to lock the tray in its final position.
Step 9. Operation
The keyboard tray is now ready for use. Place your key-
board on the tray and adjust the palm rest to your desired
position, as shown in figure 5.
