Before attempting to install your new Tuffy Drawer, it is necessary to remove the drawer from the
body. To do this, pull the drawer out as far as it can go then locate the small black plastic stops
visible on the ball bearing drawer slides. One of the black stops will need to be deactivated by
pressing down and the other one pulled up. Be careful not to break plastic stops. While deactivating
the stops pull the drawer out and the slides will separate. When you are finished installing your
drawer, line up the slides and push the drawer back in.

Washers #21.1. (See Figure 1)
