• WARNING: This product is not designed to replace good caregiving practices, including, but not
limited to:

• Direct patient and resident supervision

• Inspection and testing before use

• WARNING: Never use your Maxwell Thomas dining tabletop or table base with a non-Direct

Supply tabletop or table base. Unapproved product combinations may result in bodily harm
and void your warranty.

• WARNING: If your Maxwell Thomas dining table has table leaves, use extreme caution
when adjusting the table leaves, as fingers or other body parts may become pinched
between the tabletop and the table leaves. Only your staff should adjust the table leaves up
or down. Always ensure residents are a safe distance from the table when the table leaves
are being adjusted.

• WARNING: Table base and tabletop sizes are predetermined and should not be interchanged.
Incorrect base/top combinations could cause instability and lead to serious injury.

• CAUTION: Do not place items weighing more than 50 lbs. (22.5 kilograms) on table leaves, if

• WARNING: If your Maxwell Thomas dining table has adjustable-height capabilities, it requires
at least two people to adjust the height. Adjusting the height of the table without assistance

could result in bodily harm, as the tabletop will not be self-supported during adjustment.
Always ensure the table column is locked in place before returning it to service. Always ensure

everything is removed from the tabletop before adjusting the height. Always ensure residents are a
safe distance away from the table when the height is being adjusted.
