CONTENTS
Open the carton and lay out the components carefully, identifying them
according to the parts list and diagram on pages 6 and 7.
Should any part be damaged or missing, please contact your Clarke dealer
immediately for replacement.
The cabinet body is constructed from 5 panels plus the door. The top and
bottom panels are identical, as are the side panels. Care must be taken to
ensure they are assembled correctly by taking note of the instructions and
referring to the appropriate diagram.
All fixing screws should be entered from the outside and secured on the inside
by the flat washers and nuts provided.
Assembly should be carried out with all nuts finger tight only - DO NOT tighten
the nuts until the structure is fully assembled as described in the instructions.
You will find it easier and more comfortable to assemble the cabinet,
complete with legs, on a workbench. Additionally, it is easier and quicker if an
assistant screws on the nuts from inside the cabinet whilst the screw is held on
the outside.
NOTES:
1. Assembly is simplified if an extra pair of hands is available.
2. All fixing screws should be finger tight ONLY, until the complete structure is
assembled.
3. Assemble on a workbench with suitable free working area.
The assembly procedure is as follows:
THE CABINET
The front of each panel is the end
where a channel is formed, as
shown in fig 1.
1. Lay one such panel, (channel
down), with a side panel
positioned alongside as shown.
The bottom panel should sit on
top of the lower lip of the side
panel.
2. Secure with two screws, flat
washers and nuts.
3. Attach the opposite side panel
in a similar manner.
4. Locate the door lower hinge pin into the
hole in the lower panel, then place the top
panel on top of the two side panels as
shown in Fig 2, locating the door top hinge
pin in the hole in the upper panel as you
do so.
Secure the panel to the sides with screws,
nuts & washers in the holes shown arrowed
in Fig 2.
5. Position the structure so that the front of it
hangs over the edge of your workbench so
that you can easily bolt on the front right
hand leg, as indicated in Fig 3.
6. Before you can bolt on the front left hand
leg, the door closing plate must first be
bolted to it. This is also indicated in Fig.3.
FIG 2
Bolt on the retaining plate using the centre
hole only at (A), then offer up
the leg to the box and fit the
bolts at the top and bottom (B),
and finally on to the right hand
side panel (C).
7. With the two front legs bolted
on, turn the structure so that it is
lying on one side.
Place the back panel in
position and hold in place by
entering a screw through the
centre hole only on the top and
bottom panels, and securing
with a washer and nut from
inside the box.
FIG 3
8. Bolt on the rear leg.
9. Turn the structure over onto its opposite side and bolt on the other leg.
10. Stand the structure on its feet and rock it to ensure that no particular part
is under strain, and so that it stands evenly. Check the angle which the top
and bottom panels make with ther side panels using the door as a
template....(it should be right angles). If not adjust the structure by hand,
so that it is square, then proceed to tighten all the securing nuts.
11. Finally place the structure on its feet and test for stability, adjust the bolts,
as necessary, and secure by tightening the nuts.
1. Turn the table top face down and attach the two drawer runners as
shown in fig 4, using three screws each side, entering them in the preĀdrilled holes in the tabletop.
2. The table is now ready to
be assembled to the
FIG 4
cabinet.
3. With the table top
remaining face down,
position the cabinet on
top, with the feet
uppermost.
NOTE: The front of the table top is the edge closest to the drawer runners. Take
care to align this with the front of the cabinet.
4. Line up the holes in the legs with the pre-drilled holes in the table top, and
locate with screws. Tighten fully.
5. Turn the structure back onto its feet.
THE DRAWER
The drawer comprises:
2 x Side panels, I x Front panel, 1 x Back panel, 1 x Bottom panel
1. Having identified the various parts as in Fig 5, bolt the side panels to the
front panel as shown, then add the back panel with all screws only finger
tight.
2. Drop in the bottom panel and
secure with screws, nuts and
washers.
3. Ensure the drawer is square
before tightening all the nuts.
4. Slide the drawer into place
beneath the table.
Your workbench is now fully
assembled and ready for use.
