packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing
materials until assembly is completed.

parts are oriented as shown in the drawings.
• Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
• Assembly requires the following tools:
the included hex key(s)
two adjustable wrenches
