To replace the lock in your le cabinet you
must rst remove the old lock.

To remove the old lock:

1. Open the drawer and locate the Wing Clips
which hold the lock in place. (Figure 1)

2. With a athead screwdriver push the Wing
Clips toward the lock body and push the lock
body forward until the Wing Clip on that side is
slightly protruding out of the drawer front.

3. Again using the athead screwdriver push
the Wing Clip on the other side toward the lock
body and push forward until the lock can be
removed from the drawer.

To install the new lock:

1. Make sure that the cam is in the unlocked
position by turning the key counterclockwise
as far as it will go.

2. Feed the lock cam through the hole in the
dawer front so the Lock Cam is pointing
toward the center of the drawer (Figure 2) and
align the Wing Clips with the notches in the
drawer front (Figure 3).

3. Push the lock into the drawer front until the
Wing Clips pass through the drawer front and
snap into place behind the drawer front (Figure

4).

HANGING FOLDER SUPPORT INSTALLATION

This filing cabinet can be used with hanging file folders by simply

installing two folder supports per drawer as follows:

Step 1: Slide the drawer half way out of the
cabinet to allow access to the drawer sides.
Identify the two small square tabs on each
side of the drawer near the front. (See
Figure 1).

Step 2: From the outside of the drawer,
push the tabs inward until they are at
a 90 degree angle to the drawer side. (See
Figure 2).

Step 3: Install one folder support into each
drawer side through the top holes and then
through the square tab. (See Figure 2).
Note: After the installation of the support,
the bend in the support should remain
above the top of the drawer and should
point toward the center of the drawer.

Step 4: Place several hanging folders in the
drawer to ensure proper support positioning.

Step 5: Repeat steps 1-4 for each drawer.
