F. FASTENING UPPER CABINET BASE TO LOWER CABINET TOP
1. Locate the 7/16 Inch (1.11cm) diameter hole in the four corners of the base of the upper cabinet.
2. Using this hole as a guide, carefully drill a 7/16 Inch (1.11cm) diameter hole through sheet metal on the top of
the lower cabinet.
3. The base of each stacked cabinet should be securely fastened, in each corner, to the cabinet below it. Use a
3/8 Inch (.953cm) diameter hexagon-cap screw, length as required, two 3/8 Inch (.953cm) diameter heavy-
duty flat washers, and a 3/8 Inch (.953cm) lock nut. The hexagon-cap screw with one flat washer should be
installed through the 7/16 Inch (1.11cm) diameter hole and into the lower cabinet. The other flat washer and
lock nut should be securely tightened on to the hexagon-cap screw. A total of four fasteners should be used.
(A standard 3/8 Inch (.953cm) lock washer and a 3/8 Inch (.953cm) standard nut may be used in place of
the lock nut.)

trailer's side-wall tapping plates using a 5/16 Inch (.794cm) diameter hexagon-cap self-tapping screw 3/4
Inch (1.905cm) long, a 5/16 Inch (.794cm) diameter heavy duty washer, and a 5/16 Inch (.794cm) diameter
