OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Position the table in the location where it is to be used and adjust the levelers up or down to compensate for unlevel oors.
TILT ADJUSTMENT
Automatic stops are built into the sup­port channels for a minimum 7 degree tilt angle of the drawing board. If a 7 degree tilt is desired, simply lift the drawing board up about 5". The stops will automatically swing down into position and rest on the frame.
If a fl at position is desired, each stop can be swiveled off of the frame towards the rear of the table. Be sure to hold the drawing board up so you won’t injure your fi ngers. (see inset in step 9)
Increase the tilt angle on the drawing board by raising the Lift Bar and mov­ing the pins at the ends of the channel arms into the notched slots on the end frames.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
To elevate the entire work surface, loosen the adjustment knobs, lift draw­ing board by its front edge to desired height, then re-tighten the knobs (see
