4. Attach the G12/G12x platform to the platform
mounting brackets after removing the rubber feet
(Figure C).
NOTE: If you are installing a cable tray or instrument
brackets, do not attach the platform until those
accessories are installed.
5. Pull the receiver out as far as possible. The slides
will lock in position. Push the blue tabs located on
the middle section of the slides (Figure D). Apply
pressure to push the receiver back in toward the
rack. The smaller inner slides move into the middle
section, which should not move. Push receiver until
it backs into the rack. The mounting screws can now
be used.
Figure C. Use the existing #8-32 at head screws, washers, and hex nuts to
secure the platform to the brackets.

ensure proper support when extending the
receiver and table away from the rack, stop
the receiver and platform at approximately 6” from the
rack. Reach around to the rear of the receiver to the
slides underneath on both sides. Manually extend the
middle section of the slides forward until fully underneath
the platform. The receiver and platform may then be
extended while holding this middle slide in place. If
completed properly, the middle section of the slides will
remain underneath the platform and offer the strongest
support.

5. Reinstall the inner slides.
• Slide the left mid-section of the slide all the way out, you will feel it
lock into position.
• Feed the matching inner slide into position and ensure the inner
section rides into place with the roller bearings seated into the
groove.
• Push the inner slide in about 6-8 inches and then pull out the right
side. Slide the track of the mid-section over the right side of the
inner slide.
• Pull the slide out until the position matches the left side.
• Reach to the back of the middle slides and release the spr ing
locking mechanism (Figure C).
NOTE: At this time, both sides should be partially installed when it will
no longer proceed into the rack because the support tab on the
instrument brackets will hit the slide mounting bracket.
6. Rotate both instrument brackets inward so the support tabs
can pass the mounting brackets. Continue to push (install slides
simultaneously) into position. Remember to push the blue tabs
to allow the inner slide to continue to travel into the middle slide
section.
NOTE: The middle section will not go into the outer section until the
inner section has been fully installed into the middle section.
7. Tighten the slide mounting screws.
MAKE SURE ALL SCREW HEADS HAVE BEEN SECURELY
TIGHTENED. ONLY USE 8-32 BUTTON HEAD SCREWS.
