Step #7: Position the cross supports into the brackets
and loosely attach using 3/8-16 x 2” hex head cap
screws, 3/8 washers, and 3/8-16 hex nuts. Assure that
the cross supports are flush with the top to the sills and
tighten securely. If necessary, remove wood from the
bottom of the cross support or place shims in the bottom
of the brackets to obtain a flush fit.
Step #8: Square the table using a carpenter’s square
and assure that the baseframe is sitting flush on the leg
top and securely tighten all corner brackets. Firmly
push downward on the baseframe and securely tighten
the leg attach brackets.

Step #9: Position the corner post over the baseframe.
While using the two holes in the center of the corner
bracket, pilot drill 1/8” diameter holes into the corner
post. (Be careful not to drill all the way through.) Hold
the corner post firmly in position and attach using #8 x
1-1/4” round head screws and #8 washers.

Step #10: At each corner, adjust the legs to the desired
location and securely tighten the center bolt to the leg.
While using the three remaining holes in each leg attach
bracket as a template, pilot drill 1/8” diameter holes into
the legs approximately 1-1/2” deep. Complete the
attachment of the leg bracket using #10 x 1-1/2” hex
washer head self-tapping screws.
Step #11: Position the table in its permanent location.
We recommend a 60” clearance around perimeter of the
table. Proceed with leveling and slate installation.

SLATE ASSEMBLY AND LEVELING
IMPORTANT: Prior to installing the slate, it is
important to level the baseframe.
FIGURE ONE
Step #1: With a carpenter’s level, locate the highest
corner of the baseframe. Level the baseframe by
positioning shims (supplied with the table) underneath
the other three legs as necessary.
Step #2: Be sure that the top surfaces are absolutely
flush. Add shims under the legs as necessary to accom-
plish this.
Step #3: With the baseframe level and carefully
positioned in its permanent location, place the center
section of slate on the table. Be sure that the center
section is precisely square with the frame and an equal
amount of overhang exists on both sides of the table.
FIGURE ONE
FIGURE TWO
Step #4: Position the two end slate sections on the
baseframe. Be sure that the penciled arc forms a radius.
Step #5: Recheck to be sure that the slate has an equal
amount of overhang around the baseframe.
Step #6: Using the twelve (12) countersunk holes in the
slate as a template, pilot drill 5/32" diameter holes into
slate attach plate.
Step #7: Securely fasten the end slate section at both
ends of the table.

SLATE ASSEMBLY AND LEVELING
(CONTINUED)
FIGURE THREE
Step #8: With a precision level, level each end slate
section by driving wooden slate wedges (provided)
between the top of the baseframe and bottom of the
slate. Keep the wedges as close to the countersunk holes
as possible. (Loosen and tighten screw as required.)
Step #9: With both end slates perfectly level, continue
fastening the end slates at the joints. Recheck for
levelness and if necessary, back the screws out and
adjust the shim position, then retighten the slate
attaching screws.
Step #10: When satisfied that both end slates are level,
shim the center slate section as required to obtain a
flush fit at both joints, then screw the center slate down.
FIGURE THREE
FIGURE FOUR
Step #11: Slate joints can now be filled with fast setting
rock hard putty, bee’s wax or slate joint wax. Lightly
sand or scrape across joint after grouting.
Step #12: From the end of a bed cloth, cut strips of cloth
approximately 1-1/2" wide by approximately 8" long and
glue the strips to the pocket cutouts (3m Super 77 is
recommended for this step). This is important as this
will provide cushioning from ball impact and the bed
cloth will last much longer.

ATTACHING BED CLOTH
Before attaching bed cloth clean slate thoroughly:
FIGURE ONE
Step #1: Lay the bed cloth over the top of the slate, nap
side up. Leave an equal amount of cloth overhang at the
end and sides of the slate.
NOTE: In determining the direction of the nap, run
your hand lightly over the surface of the cloth. If it
meets resistance, it is going against the nap.
Step #2: Adjust cloth to leave only enough cloth
overhang at the head end and left side to permit tacking
into the wood slate frame. Leave the balance of cloth
overhang at the foot end and right side.
NOTE: Do not spread tacks or staples on the bed cloth
because it could cut the cloth. Keep them in a con-
tainer that slides over the cloth.
FIGURE ONE
FIGURE TWO
Step #3: Tack or staple the cloth securely to the wood
frame at location #1 with two tacks or staples approxi-
mately 2" apart.
Step #4: Stretch the cloth across the table and tack or
staple securely at location #2 with two tacks or staples
2" apart.
Step #5: Stretch the cloth from location #1 to location
#3 and tack or staple securely into the wood frame at
the left side of the table.
Step #6: Stretching the cloth across the table from
location #3 and pulling from location #2, tack or staple
the cloth at location #4.

2" centers also keeping the cloth even along the wood
frame.
Step #19: Stretch the cloth tightly toward the foot end of
the table, tacking or stapling on 2" centers along the
wood frame at the foot end.
Step #20: Stretch the cloth tightly across the table to
the right side, tacking or stapling on 2" centers all the
way along the wood frame at the right side.
FIGURE SEVEN
Step #21: Stretch the cloth into the corner pocket
openings and tack or staple to the wood slate frame.
Step #22: Trim off excess cloth around the perimeter of
the slate. Locate the eighteen (18) rail attach holes and
cut clearance holes in the cloth with a sharp knife.
NOTE: Occasionally cloth will stretch, leaving wrinkles at
the pockets. To retighten, remove apron, one end rail and
one side rail. Pull cloth taut, and retack or restaple along
the open end and side to restore original tightness.
