Checking Drawer Alignment

The unit’s drawers are aligned at the factory before shipment. However, their alignment could have been disturbed during shipment or during overlay panel installation. Check each drawer to confirm that it is aligned:

NOTICE

Drawer adjustments are made by moving the slide that carries the drawer’s rail. Minor adjustments may be made by loosening one of the slide’s mounting screws, adjusting the slide and retightening the screw. Severe adjustments may be made by removing the slides’ mounting screws, drilling new mounting holes and remounting the slide.

Side-to-Side Adjustment:

The drawer will need a Side-to- Side Adjustment if, when viewed from the top, the drawer front is not square with the sides of the cabinet. This is caused by one of the slides being mounted too far forward on the unit’s liner.

Minor Adjustment:

1.Loosen the slide’s mounting screws.

2.Push the slide backward.

3.Retighten the screws.

Severe Adjustment:

Note: The slides have extra mounting holes that may be used.

1.Remove the slide’s mounting screws.

2.Reposition the slide so it is the same distance from the front of the liner as the other slide. Measure to confirm.
