Level the Cabinet

Note The cabinet should be leveled only after it has been located in the
s
desired working location.
For cabinets without a stand, place a bubble level onto the work tray
surface and adjust the cabinet until the level indicates an absolutely
horizontal position in all directions.
For cabinets with an optional stand, place a bubble level onto the work
tray and adjust the four levelers of the stand using an open end or
adjustable wrench until the bubble level indicates an absolutely horizontal
position in all directions. Check from right to left, and from back to front.
