===== Step 6.2 – Insert the front posts =====

From the front of the unit, the arrows will be visible and point towards each other.

<WRAP important>
When inserting the posts, hold them firmly as low as possible while inserting them.  Torquing them in any horizontal direction can cause them to break.
