Operating the Drawer Slides

These undermount drawer slides feature a soft-close mechanism. When closing the drawer, gently push it until the soft-close mechanism engages. The drawer will then pull itself shut quietly and smoothly, preventing slamming.

• Tiefeneinstellung: Adjusted via a screw or lever on the lock device.
• Seitliche Anpassung: Adjusted via a screw or lever on the lock device.

Consult the specific markings on the lock devices for the exact adjustment points. After making adjustments, ensure all locking mechanisms are secure.

• Drawer not aligning properly: Use the 3D adjustment features on the lock devices to correct height, depth, or side-to-side alignment.
• Drawer difficult to open/close: Ensure all mounting screws are tightened appropriately. Check if the slides are installed level and parallel.
