INSTALLATION OF 1480 CABINETS
Tools Needed: A free 11/32" nut driver is provided with each Tennsco cabinet (Ref. No. 17). In addition,
you will need a flathead screwdriver. A hammer is required to install the hinge pin and lock bar.
Two people recommended for installation. Approximate assembly time: 15 to 25 minutes.
1. The reference numbers used throughout this
sheet refer to the illustration on the back cover.
This is to help you to identify the various parts as
they are mentioned.
2. Place the cabinet back (Ref. No. 1) on a
protected surface to prevent
scratching the paint. The
flange on the
bottom of
the back
should be facing
upward.
Flange faces upward
3. Attach the left side (Ref. No. 2) to the back by
placing flange (A) around the back and
bolting the back and
side together with
seven bolts
and nuts
(Ref.
Nos.
18 &19).
Be sure
that the lances
on all shelf
adjustment
strips (B) point
in the same
direction.
All lances point UP
B
on both back
and side.

Flange goes
under back
5. To help hold the sides in position, insert one
shelf (Ref. No. 4) into the approximate center of
the unit, inserting the shelf edges into the
lances on all
four shelf
adjustment strips.
Be sure that the
channeled edge of
the shelf
is toward
the cabinet
front. If
a lance
is too
tight, it
may be
helpful to use
a screwdriver to
SLIGHTLY pry it open.
6. Insert bolts into the outside
holes on the header (Ref.
No. 5), placing two on each end
as shown in Inset A. Attach
the nuts, but do not tighten. Next, insert
the loose bolt heads on the
header into the large
end of the
keyhole
slots
at the
top of
each
side panel.
Slide the bolt
heads securely into the
smaller end
of the keyhole slot, and tighten the
four nuts securely.

4. Attach the right side (Ref. No. 3) to the back in
the same manner as you did in step 3,
again making sure that
the flange is around the
back and that the lances
on the
and left side.
shelf adjustment
strips are
pointed
in the
same
direction as
those on the back
7. Attach the sill (Ref. No. 6) to the two holes on
each side of the cabinet bottom, using the same
technique you used to attach
the header in step 6.
Inset A
Loosely place
two bolts and
nuts on each
side, then
slide into
keyhole slots
and secure.
Place bolt heads into
keyhole slots, slide to
narrow end, and
secure nuts.
