ASSEMBLY OF IMPERIAL OPEN SHELF FILES

Tools Needed: A rubber mallet is helpful for seating shelf supports. Requires one or two people for assembly.

The first seven steps are easier with two people assembling. Approximate assembly time: 20 to 40 minutes.

1. Unpack all items and carefully compare the

items you received with the packing list on the
back page.

2. Determine whether you will be assembling a

single unit, or multiple units joined together. For
a single unit, use two L uprights (Ref. No. 1a).
For multiple units, use one L upright and one
T upright (Ref. No. 1b).

3. Examine the slots on the two uprights

you have selected. When an upright
is standing up on end, the narrow part
of the keyhole slots should be toward
the floor, while the wide part should be
toward the top.

4. After determining which end

of the upright is the bottom,
attach a plastic foot (Ref. No.
8 or 9) to the bottom of each upright
by pressing it into place.
Note the difference at right
between a foot for an "L" upright
and a foot for a "T" upright.

5. Lean one L

upright against a
wall, and
temporarily place
one shelf support
(Ref. No. 4) at
approximately eye
level to properly
space the uprights.
Make sure both
rivets on the shelf
support are fully
inserted into the
keyhole slots, and
are firmly seated at
the bottom of the
keyhole as shown in
step 6.

6. PLEASE NOTE: To firmly seat shelf supports

and backstops, make sure both rivets are fully
inserted in the keyhole slots, and firmly seated
in the bottom of the slot. A rubber mallet can
be helpful in accomplishing this. Supports are

not fully seated unless you can see an
open space through the hole in the shelf
support as shown below.

7. Hold a second L upright

(or a T upright if you are
assembling multiple units)
approximately 36" away.
Pull the first upright away
from the wall using the
shelf support you attached
in step 3, and insert the
other end of the shelf
support into the second
upright. NOTE: Take care

not to let the uprights
fall, as they are not
stable until step 7 is
completed.

8. Place a shelf support at the rear of the unit in

the bottom keyhole slots, in the same way you
placed the shelf support in steps 4 through 6.
Then, place a second shelf support at bottom
front of unit.
