non-abrasive cleaner.
Assembly requires the included hex keys and your own Phillips screwdriver ,
adjustable wrench , rubber mallet , and needlenose pliers .
Use the drawings below to identify the assembly hardware. The number in parentheses below each drawing is
the key number of the part, from the PART LIST near the end of this manual. The number after the parentheses
is the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it is preattached to
one of the parts to be assembled. To avoid damaging plastic parts, do not use power tools for assembly.
Extra hardware may be included.
