(Optional) Installing Adjustable Guide Rails
Adjustable guide rails are used to support storage devices in the cabinets of varying depths. If adjustable guide rails have been installed in the cabinet before delivery, skip this section.
- By default, adjustable guide rails are not included in the accessories of a storage device. You must purchase them separately when placing POs if needed.
- If U-shaped brackets are required, install them with adjustable guide rails together. For details on how to install both the U-shaped brackets and adjustable guide rails, see (Optional) Installing U-shaped Brackets and Adjustable Guide Rails.
Prerequisites
The following installation tools and materials are ready:
- M3 to M6 Phillips screwdriver
- Marker
- M6 screws
- Square-hole positioning pin (for square installation holes)
- Round-hole positioning pin (for round installation holes)
Precautions
- Storage devices must be installed on adjustable guide rails. Stacking devices may damage them.
- The adjustable guide rails must be installed horizontally.
To ensure that an adjustable guide rail can be installed horizontally, it is recommended that you mark both front and rear columns where the adjustable guide rail is to be secured before installation.
Context
- If possible, start the installation from the bottom-most allowed space in your cabinet.
- A pair of adjustable guide rails must be installed for each storage device.
- The adjustable guide rails can be extended from 600 mm to 900 mm.
- The square-hole positioning pins have been installed on the adjustable guide rails before delivery. If the installation holes for the screws are round, change the square-hole positioning pins to round-hole positioning pins before installing the adjustable guide rails.
You can find round-hole positioning pins in the accessory bag delivered with the storage system.
The following describes how to install the adjustable guide rails (using the square-hole positioning pins as an example).
Procedure
- On the front of the cabinet, align the bottom edge of the adjustable guide rail with the U scale on the front mounting bar, and fully insert the front positioning pin into the square hole.
- Extend the adjustable guide rail and insert the rear positioning pins into the square holes on the rear mounting bar.
- Secure the adjustable guide rails with M6 screws, as shown in Figure 5-18.
When securing an adjustable guide rail, attach one M6 screw to the specified position at the front side of the rail, as shown in Figure 5-18. Using extra M6 screws or attaching the screw to other positions will cause collision with the device, resulting in device damage.
