If you are installing handle onto a Stainless Steel Panel:

Use extreme caution if you are drilling through a stainless steel panel. Stainless steel panels must be handled gently. Do not kneel on the stainless steel panel. It will leave a permanent dent. Do not remove protective plastic covering until final installation.

•Place supplied filler panel (corrugated) on floor to use as a pad.

•On the back side of the panel—at the handle side, measure and mark 1/4″ below the top edge of the panel.

•Slip panel into the new extrusion, flush against inner edge, on the handle side.

•Align extrusion to pencil mark as shown in Step 2. Mark each screw hole location with pencil.

•Tape extrusion to panel to prevent movement.

•Place panel on plywood section, appearance side down. Be sure plywood is clean without nicks and burrs. Center punch at each screw hole location.

•Drill 1/8″ pilot hole. Use 9/32″ bit to enlarge clearance hole.

•Measure and cut a 2″ wide strip, top to bottom off the corrugated panel. This will allow room for spacer rings between the stainless panel and extrusion.
