CAUTION:

DO NOT MOVE TABLE TOP HALF SECTIONS
UNTIL AFTER THE U-LEGS AND U-SUPPORTS
ARE INSTALLED! MOVING TABLE TOP
SECTIONS WITH ONLY CONNECTING PLATES
INSTALLED WILL CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE!

1. Lay two table top sections #1 (painted side down,
U-leg and U-support mounting holes aligned) on
a smooth, flat surface. Use the shipping con­tainer to protect the painted surface of the table
top sections. NOTE: It is very important that the
surface you are working on is flat. If it isn't, the
table top sections may not line up properly.

DO NOT PUT YOUR ENTIRE WEIGHT ON
TABLE TOP BOARDS WHEN ASSEMBLING
TOP. YOU COULD DAMAGE BOARDS.

2. Align holes in connecting plates #26 with pilot
holes in boards #1 and attach with six screws
#20 each. Do not overtighten screws causing
them to strip out pilot holes.

3. Put plastic caps #13 on the end of U-leg #2.

4. Lay one U-leg #2 and one U-support #7 on the first table top
assembly as shown. (U-leg is wider than U-support. The dis­tance between the edge of the U-leg and the end of the
table top assembly measures approximately 7 inches. The
distance between the edge of the U-support and the end of
the table top assembly measures approximately 9½ inches.)

5. Align the holes in the long stiffener #3 and the U-clips
#6 with pilot holes in table top assembly and secure
with eleven screws #20 as shown.

IMPORTANT:

Be sure the slot in the four U-clips #6 all face the same
direction (toward the end of the table with the U-support)
as shown.

Figure 2

IMPORTANT: U-Leg is wider than U-support.
Make sure they are assembled exactly as
shown. If not, there will be a large gap
between table halves and table will not
operate properly!

6. Rotate U-support #7 until you see the screw hole
in the slot of U-clip # 6. Slide U-support #7 side
to side if necessary. NOTE: Screw hole may be
in either U-clip. If you don't see hole in slot of
one U-clip, look for it in the other U-clip.

7. Insert screw #19 through slot in U-clip #6 and
into U-support #7. Thread it all the way into U­support #7 until it touches the back of the tube.
There should be about 3/8 inch of screw #19
left sticking out.

8. Attach linkages #4 to INSIDE of U-leg #2 in the hole
shown in Figure 5 (the hole closest to the table top).
Secure with screws #17, locknuts #15 and plastic wash­ers #25. Tighten hardware snug enough to keep table
stable but do not overtighten. Tubes must pivot. NOTE:
Plastic washers go between linkages #4 and U-leg #2.

9. Attach leg stop screws #17 to U-leg #2 in the hole

shown in Figure 4 (the hole closest to the end of tube
#2). NOTE: THESE SCREWS ARE LEG STOP SCREWS.
NOTHING IS ATTACHED TO THEM. Secure with lock­nuts #15 and thread protectors #23.

10. Attach other end of linkages #4 to OUTSIDE of U-sup-

port #7 with screws #14 and plastic washers #25.
Then slide braces #9 onto the same screws #14 on

INSIDE of U-support #7.
NOTE: Dimples in brace tubes #9 must face in to­ward the center of the table as shown in Figure 4.

Secure with locknuts #15. Tighten hardware until snug
but do not overtighten. Tubes must pivot freely.
