INDIVIDUAL LOCATION SHIMMING
Individual location shimming can be done, IF
NECESSARY, by following the following steps.
Detail A

B) Table must be as level as possible before shimming. Large
differences in levelness must be corrected by raising or lowering
frame with shim stock.

Loosen screws from underneath, at these points and see if slatron

shipped with this table and place under these areas. Place shims
next to screws.
D) Lay a straight edge across bed to be sure it pieces is flat.
