10. Attach upper cross bar-large "F" to front of upper leg frames
using 1 1/2" bolts "0".
11. Attach tilt mechanisms "I" to back of upper leg frames using
1 3/8" bolts "Y", nylon washers "T" and nuts "S". For ease of
handling keep mechanisms in folded position for time being
with elastic bands. Pay close attention to the correct orientation
of the mechanisms and be sure that nylon washer "T" is
positioned between mechanism and leg frame. Tighten nut "S"
securely. It has a built-in locking ring and you may prefer
using a standard wrench or pliers to drive the bolt all the way

to avoid scratches, with the pre-drilled holes facing up.
14. Choose either the pencil ledge "U" or pencil tray "V" ( not
both ) and attach using 5/8” Phillips screws "R” into pre-drilled
holes in front of tabletop. If attaching metal pencil ledge,
folded-over edge should be on the underside ( unfinished side )
of tabletop and should point towards back edge of board.

15. Carefully turn base assembly upside down and place on table
top (this may require two people ) Be sure that the two
threaded inserts near the back edge of the table top align with
the attachment holes in the tilt mechanisms "I" and the base is
centered left-to-right. The upper cross bar-large "F” should be
positioned between the 2 sets of pre-drilled holes.
16. Align table top brackets "M" with the 2 sets of pre-drilled
holes. These brackets should straddle and capture the upper
cross bar "F". Attach brackets using 5/8" phillips screws "R".
17. Attach tilt mechanisms "I" to tabletop using 1/2" alien bolts
"Q".
18. Carefully return assembled table to its upright position (this

19. Snap together the two drawer frame sets "J". This is best done with
the drawers removed. Note that sets consist of distinctive top, middle
and bottom pieces. (Middle piece has open top and open bottom.
Bottom piece has open top and solid bottom with 4 round feet. Top
piece has solid smooth top and open bottom.) TIP: When snapping
together, start simultaneously in the two front corners and slowly
work your way to the back corners making sure that each tab is
aligned before applying pressure. When complete, slightly loosen the
alien bolts holding the drawer support hangers "H" and slide each of
the drawer units into place. Retighten all drawer support bolts

To Adjust Tilt
The ratcheted tilt mechanisms allow you to set the table top at a variety
of comfortable working angles. Simply lift the table top from the back
edge until it clicks into the desired position. To return the top to the
flat position, raise the back edge as high as it will go. This will release
the ratchet mechanism.
To Adjust Height
It is suggested that the table height be set during initial assembly, prior
to attaching drawer units. To adjust the height at a later time, follow
these steps:
1. Please do not attempt to adjust the height with the table in the
3"
upright position
2. It is suggested that two people perform the height adjustment to
avoid damaging table
3. Return table top to flat, horizontal position
4. Remove drawers to avoid spilling contents. (It is ok for drawer
unit frames to remain in place)
5. Carefully lay table on its back. Be sure it is resting on a caipeted
or otherwise protected surface
6. Unscrew height adjustment knob "K" from both left and right
side frames and slide out adjustment rods. Align adjustment
holes and desired setting and reinsert rods. Screw adjustment
knobs onto ends of rods and return table to upright position.
