STEP 4
A. Attach the Drawer Back to the Drawer Sides with two 1 1/2” #8 screws. There are left and right
drawer sides. Make sure the slots that run the length of the Sides are aligned with the slot in the
Drawer Back to accept the Drawer Bottom.
B. Slide in Drawer Bottom, best side up, to inside of drawer.
C. Take the 2 bastion posts, align the threaded end of the posts with the post holes located near the
ends of the inside of the Drawer Front. Tighten posts down until the solid shaft of the posts hits the
wood. Back post out until the hole/screwdriver slot in end of post is parallel and in direct line with the
long edges of the Drawer Front.
D. Insert the barrel nuts into the nut access holes on the inside of the Drawer Sides with the threaded
ends of the nuts facing out. Take the Drawer Front and carefully insert the posts into the ends of
the Drawer Sides, through the sides of the nuts until seated. Push nut snug up against the wood in
the nut access hole toward the inside of Drawer Front. Hole should be slightly off-center toward the
Drawer Front. Insert the set screw and tighten down. The ends of the sides should be tight against the
inside Drawer Front.
E. Attach the drawer handles with 7/8” Truss head machine screws.
F. Attach the drawer glides (left and right) to the Drawer Sides using two 5/8” #5 screws per side.
Wheels go toward Drawer Back and are up. The end with no wheels should touch the Drawer Front.
