is an incredible value.

Leveling Lateral File Cabinets

Leveling Lateral File Cabinets

3 Steps to Level the Files

1. Open the bottom drawer.

2. Locate the 3/4" dia. hole in the bottom of the drawer, and align with the glide hole in the bottom of the file cabinet.

3. Use a flat-head (blade) screwdriver to level the front glides so that the file cabinet is even side-to-side.

Repeat this step with the read glides, ensuring that the rear of the file cabinet is1/8" lower that the front.
