A mounting system applied to a cabinet with feet comprising
- a left side (1a) comprising of U-shaped bends (1c), the U-shaped bends (1c) receiving a forward part of a left side (2b) of a double tubular rear feet (2a), the double tubular rear feet (2a) being of square sections welded in an H-shape, the forward part of the left side (2b) of the double tubular rear feet (2a) being fitted to the U-shaped bends (1c) of the left side (1a), the left side (1a) and the double tubular rear feet (2a) being locked by manually bending a tab (1b) of the left side (1a) on a hole (2c) of the double tubular rear feet (2a);
- a right side (4a) comprising U-shaped bends (4c), the U-shaped bends (4c) receiving a forward part of a right side (2b) of the double tubular rear feet (2a), the forward part of the right side (2b) of the double tubular rear feet (2a) being fitted to the U-shaped bends (4c) of the right side (4a), the right side (4a) and the double tubular rear feet (2a) being locked by manually bending a tab (4b) of the right side (4a) on a hole (2c) of the double tubular rear feet (2a);
- the left side (1a) receiving a forward part of a left side (2b) of a double tubular front feet (2a), the forward part of the left side (2b) of the double tubular front feet (2a) being fitted to the U-shaped bends (1c) of the left side (1a), the left side (1a) and the double tubular front feet (2a) being locked by manually bending a tab (1h) of the left side (1a) on a hole (2c) of the double tubular front feet (2a);
- the right side (4a) receiving a forward part of a right side (2b) of the double tubular front feet (2a), the forward part of the right side (2b) of the double tubular front feet (2a) being fitted to the U-shaped bends (4c) of the right side (4a), the right side (4a) and the double tubular front feet (2a) being locked by manually bending a tab (4h) of the right side (4a) on a hole (2c) of the double tubular front feet (2a), wherein after locking the tab (4h) on the hole (2c), the cabinet with feet is configured to be placed upright;
- and
- a lower part (9a) of a back section of the cabinet being fitted over one of the U-shaped bends (1c) of the left side (1a), one of the U-shaped bends (4c) of the right side (4a), and the double tubular rear feet (2a), the lower part (9a) being locked by manually bending tabs (9f and 9g) on holes (1e and 4e) of the left side (1a) and the right side (4a).
