INSTALLING THE SEPARATOR CHANNEL
See Figure 18.
The separator channel keeps the front and rear rails
straight. Separator channel must be properly installed
to prevent workpiece from binding.
• Locate the separator channel and the following
hardware:
4 brackets
4 square head bolts (5/16-18 x 1 in.)
8 hex bolts (5/16-18 x 3/4 in.)
12 hex nuts (5/16 in.)
• Place the brackets on the channel, aligning the
holes. Install the hex head bolts in the pair of holes
on each bracket. From inside the channel, add a
hex nut and finger tighten.
• Install the square head bolts in the single slots on
the end of each bracket. Add the nuts and partially
tighten, leaving a small gap between the bolt and
the bracket.
