Installation Guide
Step 1
Inspect all parts and read all instructions
prior to beginning assembly and
installation.
Step 2
Place left half of the mechanism along the
inner cabinet wall (Figure 1), with the front
edge of mechanism 1/2" from the edge
of cabinet opening or face frame and
the top edge of mechanism 1/2" below
cabinet opening. Mark each of the 6 hole
locations with a pencil.
Note:
Face frame style cabinets may require
the installation of wood support blocks
behind the face frame to allow the secure
attachment of the lift arms to the side of
the cabinet.
Step 3
Using the 1/16" drill bit, drill pilot holes
for inserting the mounting screws in the
marked locations. Fasten the lift arm
mechanism in place by using 6 of the #8 x
1/2" phillips truss head screws, starting with
hole location #1 and continuing through to
#4 (Figure 2). Then lower the arm to access
and fasten #5 & #6 hole locations.
Step 4
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the right half of
the mechanism, making sure the location
of both of the lift arms brackets are level
and parallel with each other.
Step 5
Raise both mechanisms to the open
position. Using either the optional maple
platform or a custom platform, center
platform on mounting brackets and attach
using 10 screws (Figure 3).
Step 6
Lift up on release levers (Figure 4) and
lower appliance lift into the cabinet,
checking for proper fit and clearance.
Optional
To adjust for open position height, you may
move both (left and right) adjustment pins
to one of two hole positions (Figure 5).
With the stock platform, the top pin position
places the platform at approximate
countertop level. The other position places
the platform 2" below the countertop.
NOTE
Maximum load rating is 30 lbs.
