Viceversa® Bridges Installation Sequence
STEP 1: LAYOUT ORIENTATION
Orient the layout plan within the installation area, determine the location of table
assemblies, power source and main storage components; establish the highest point
on the floor.
STEP 2: SUPPORTING STRUCTURE - legs, supporting beams
Identify type and size of required components and position them in accordance with
layout plans. Proceed with connecting legs and structural beams (see the following
pages for detailed instructions). Make sure that all rails are leveled and securely connected before proceeding with installation of work.
Wrench Flathead Screwdriver Phillips Screwdriver
STEP 4: ACCESSORIES - task and paper organizers
Determine type and location of accessories fitting into either top or bottom of the rail
as specified in floor plans. Proceed with installation of accessories.
STEP 5: STORAGE
STEP 6: ELECTRICS and DATA / COMMUNICATION - cable routing; cable management
Connect power feed harness to building power supply; check circuit assignments and
functionality of power delivery at each duplex receptacle.

STEP 3: WORKSURFACES
Supporting Structure Height Adjustment
Set the legs to desired height.
The inner leg has two threaded holes.
STEP 1: The top threaded hole is typically used to secure legs with levelers.
STEP 2: The lower threaded hole is used for securing legs with casters.

STEP 7: WALK THROUGH / INSTALLATION INSPECTION
STEP 3: If the desired top surface height is 29” from the floor, for instance, and the
table structure is to be on levelers, align top threaded hole in the inner leg (1) with the
fourth hole in the table leg (3) as illustrated. When installing legs on casters, align the
lower (2) threaded hole in the inner leg with the same fourth hole (3) in the table leg
and secure with provided screws.
STEP 4: The height adjustment screws must be only used with the provided,
translucent cup/washer.

Supporting Structure Height Adjustment
Legs are connected with supporting beams. There is one beam for a single
line of tables while two beams connect back-to-back table structures.
There are three types of beams whose application principles are common to building
support for single-line and back-to-back table assemblies: Standard Beam, Interconnect Beam and Telescopic Beam
STANDARD BEAM
Designed to bridge two or three legs to form support for a single table, or for two
adjacent table assemblies.
INTERCONNECT BEAM
Designed to bridge space between two table assemblies. Because the interconnect
beam is 4” longer than the standard beam, it spreads supporting legs apart so that
they can be shared by adjacent worksurfaces. A typical, multiple surface table run
begins with a standard beam, continues with required number of interconnect beams
and ends with a standard beam at the opposite end of the run.
• Spring 2011
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
To connect a beam to a leg, identify the correct type (Standard or Interconnect) first in accordance with your desired table configuration.
STEP 1: Position beam’s end bracket over leg’s horizontal, rectangular tube.
STEP 2: Space cord bumpers along beam. A 72” beam should have 2
STEP 3: Secure top and bottom bracket ends with two supplied screws.
Level the whole assembly.
STEP 4: Install worksurfaces and secure with supplied screws by proceeding from the
central, shared leg to the outside of the assembly in both directions.

Legs and Beams
TELESCOPIC BEAM
Designed to provide support for worksurfaces perpendicularly connected to a primary
table run. The telescopic beam is connected to the leg’s horizontal, rectangular tube
on one side, while the opposite side is secured off module to the perpendicular,
central beam and can be adjusted to accommodate 24” and 30” deep primary
worksurfaces.
STEP 1: Position beam’s end bracket over leg’s horizontal, rectangular tube.
STEP 2: Secure top and bottom bracket ends with two supplied screws.
STEP 3: Adjust the length of the telescopic beam in accordance with the depth of
primary worksurface.

TELESCOPIC BEAM
STEP 4: Position end bracket of the telescopic beam over the primary, perpendicular
beam. Level the whole assembly.
STEP 5: Install primary worksurface.
STEP 6: Secure the secondary worksurface to legs first.
STEP 7: Adjust the secondary worksurface/telescopic beam position.
STEP 8: Secure the worksurfaces with flat brackets.

GENERAL INFORMATION
120º Beam Support
Designed to connect “A” frame legs with 120º “corner” leg to form support for a
single table, or for adjacent table assemblies.
• January 2010
The integrated 120ª beam bracket allows for the beam to be mounted in two positions:
A) end of run leg placement
B) shared leg placement
Identify the desired leg position (A or B)
STEP 1: Align two mounting holes in beam with two holes in the integrated 120º
beam bracket. Position beam’s end bracket over leg’s horizontal, rectangular tube.
STEP 2: Secure both beams to the integrated 120º beam bracket with four supplied screws.
STEP 3: Position beam’s end bracket over leg’s horizontal rectangular tube.
STEP 4: Secure top and bottom bracket ends with two supplied screws.
STEP 5: Level the whole assembly.
STEP 6: Install work surfaces and secure with supplied screws by proceeding
from the central, 120º leg to the outside of the assembly in both directions.
NOTE: 24” deep worksurfaces are mounted centrally on top of the table structure. 30” deep worksurfaces are mounted off center, with a longer overhang
facing the user.

Sliding Return
Ensure that back-to-back table installation is complete, level and structurally
sound. Installation of Sliding Rail requires a special degree of accuracy of work
surface alignment. Failure to do so may result in binding of the sliding mechanism on the Sliding Rail.
Establish range of the Sliding Return.
STEP 1: Mark a line 3” in from (and parallel with) the front edge of work
surface.
STEP 2: Position the Sliding Rail and secure it with supplied screws. Always proceed from the second hole, leaving the first hole for installation of the Rail stop.
NOTE: the pair of screws provided to secure the rubber rail stops at either
end of the rail are longer than the screws for securing the rail to the work
surface. Do not use these longer screws to secure the rail as the screws may
penetrate through the top of the work surface.
STEP 3: Secure leg support bracket to a leg frame with supplied machine
screws (wide flat allen head).
STEP 4: Place the Sliding Return work surface upside down on a clean surface.
Secure the leg assembly to the work surface with supplied wood screws.
Ensure that the legs are set to the same height as the legs supporting the rest
of the table installation.

STEP 5: Place eight supplied rubber spacers over pre-drilled holes. If you are
converting an existing Return work surface to a Sliding Return, mark a line 1”
in from (and parallel with) the edge of the Return work surface.
STEP 6: Align supporting brackets with rubber spacers / pre-drilled holes (or
the marked line) and secure both brackets with supplied wood screws.
NOTE: In order to ensure a smooth sliding action, both brackets must be
perfectly perpendicular to the edge of the return work surface.
STEP 7: Slide the two glide blocks with bushings carefully onto the Rail as
illustrated.
STEP 8: This step requires two people:
While the leg supported side of the Return rests on the floor have an assistant
position supporting brackets under sliding glide blocks, align the holes and
gently drive in two machine screws (metric M6 as provided). Do not tighten. In
the same manner secure the second bracket to the second glide block and test
smoothness of the slide. Carefully tighten all four metric screws while repeatedly testing smoothness of the slide. If the return binds on the Sliding Rail, then
your support bracket(s) are not perpendicular to the rail - causing the
glide blocks to jam.
STEP 9: Secure rail stops to both ends of the rail with supplied (longer) srews
to prevent disengagement.
