STEP 1: LEG ASSEMBLY
Place a bench top (Item 1) on a flat surface with the four support angles facing up. Fasten LH and RH legs (Items 2 & 3) to
the outside angles using (10) 5/16-18 x 5/8 hex head bolts (Item 24) and (10) 5/16-18 keps nut (Item 23). If your bench has
an overhang then move the leg with holes in 12” to the inside support angle. Do not place bolt in hole closest to front of
bench until leg fillers are in place. Next, place LH and RH leg fillers (Items 4 & 5) to the inside of the legs as shown in
(Figure 1.). Use (1) 5/16-18 x 5/8 cap screw (Item 24) and (1) 5/16-18 keps nut (Item 23) per filler. Do not tighten fasteners.
Figure 1.

5
STEP 2: BASE SHELF ASSEMBLY
Place the base shelf (Item 6) between the leg fillers and the leg (Figure 2.) on both sides. Fasten base shelf to legs
and fillers by using (8) ¼-20 x 5/8 cap screws (Item 17), (16) ¼ flat washers (Item 15), & (8) ¼-20 keps nuts (Item
16). Next, position and fasten back stop chnl into place with (4) ¼-20 x 5/8 cap screws (Item 17), (8) ¼ flat washers
(Item 15), & (4) ¼-20 keps nuts (Item 16). Do not tighten
fasteners at this point.
Figure 2.

IF INSTALLING ROLLER BEARINGS THEN SKIP TO SECTION 2 BEFORE GOING TO STEP 3
STEP 3: FRONT FACE / DOOR TRACK
Place the front face (Item 12) in-between the leg fillers as is shown in (Figure 3). Line up the holes in the leg fillers with the
holes on the ends of the front face and fasten tight with (4) ¼-20 x ¾ hex head TFS (Item 32). Next, fasten the front edge of
the front face to the top using (1) #14x3/4 hex head SDS (Item 33) through the hole in the front face. Place the track cover
(Item 10) on the front face lining up the three holes, then place the track (Item 9) on top of the track cover keeping the three
holes lined up. Using (3) #10-24 x 3/8 Truss Hd Phil (Item 14) and (3) #10-24 keps nut (Item 13) fasten track & track cover
to front face.
Figure 3.

STEP 4: SQUARE AND TIGHTEN
Measure the distance from the back of the leg to the edge of the top. This distance needs to be 1/8” smaller than the depth of
the uni-strut being used to mount unit to the wall (Ex. Set distance to 1-1/2” if using 1-5/8” uni-strut). Next measure the
distance from the outside of the leg to the side edge of the top and make sure they are equal to ensure a square unit. NOTE:
IF BUILDING A 10FT BENCH WITH 24” CENTER SHELF SET DISTANCE FROM OUTSIDE OF LEG TO SIDE
EDGE OF BENCH TO 12-1/16”. Once both legs have been measured and set for square then tighten the (12) 5/16-18 x 5/8
cap screws (Item 24) that attach the top to the legs. Once those have been tightened everything else may be tightened at this
time. See (Figure 4).
Figure 4.
IF INSTALLING LIFT CABINET THEN SKIP TO SECTION 3 BEFORE GOING TO STEP 5

STEP 5: ATTACH BACKSPLASH
Remove protective film from backsplash and fasten to back of bench top using (4) 10-24 rolok screws (Item 27). See (Figure
5).
Figure 5.

9
STEP 6: MOUNT TO WALL
Set bench upright on floor. Cut (2) pieces of uni-strut to nominal length of bench. Attach first piece of uni-strut to wall 12”
above the floor. Attach second piece of uni-strut to wall 30” above floor. For proper alignment it’s very important that the
two pieces of uni-strut are mounted 18” center to center. Make sure uni-strut is parallel to floor and parallel to each other.
Place (2) spring loaded uni-strut nuts in the top and bottom uni-strut that will line up with the holes in the legs for mounting.
Using (4) 1-5/8 x 1-5/8 sq washers (Item 21) and (4) 3/8-16 x 1-1/4” cap screws (Item 22) attach unit to wall. Keep fasteners
loose until bench is in desired location and then tighten. See (Figure 6)
Figure 6.
NOTE: IF A BENCH TOP HEIGHT OF 36” IS NOT WANTED THEN ADJUST BOTTOM UNI-STRUT
ACCORDLYING BUT KEEP 18” DISTANCE BETWEEN THE TWO UNI-STRUTS

STEP 7: DOOR ASSEMBLY
Attach the handles (Item 25) to the doors using (2) M4-.7 x 8mm phil truss hd screws (Item 30) per door. Fasten (2) 5/8
offset wheel brackets (Item 28) to the front door using (4) 10-24 rolok screws (Item 27), make sure handle is on the right
hand side. Then fasten (2) straight wheel brackets (Item 29) to the back door using (4) 10-24 rolok screws (Item 27), make
sure when brackets are attached that handle is on the left hand side. Assemble (2) roller wheels (Item 26) to each door using
(2) 8-32 x 5/16” pnhd phil screw (Item 31). See (Figure 7).
Figure 7.
STEP 8: MOUNT DOORS
Hang back door first by tilting door outward at bottom and setting on the back track. Then hang the front door by tilting door
outward at the bottom and setting on the front track. Once both doors are hung then push both doors to one side and slide in
(1) double channel door guide (Item 18). Use (2) 8-32 x ¾ flat hd screw (Item 19) and (2) 8-32 keps nut (Item 20) to fasten
