ASSEMBLY
TOOLS REQUIRED
• Rubber mallet or hammer
• Protective cloth/wood block
ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
1. Assemble on a firm, level surface. Avoid assembly on a domestic carpet.
2. Always ensure that the tabs sit at the bottom of the slots.
3. It is recommended that the assembly should be done by two persons.
4. Use a cloth or softwood block to
protect the surface finish of the
product when using a mallet.
5. The tabs of the beams will often
enter the slots fully using just firm
hand pressure but if they are too
tight, you may require a rubber
mallet to assist. If so, always use a
cloth to protect the product paint
finish.
6. Tap gently with the mallet to drive the tabs of the beams fully into the slots
in the corner post. Always strike the edge close to the post.
7. Decide how high you want the lower beams to be, relative to the floor,
noting that the lower beams should never be more than half height from
the bottom of the corner posts.
8. Use the short support beams (D) to
connect the front and rear corner
posts together. Ensure the beam
(D) is in the highest possible
position.
NOTE: The beam edge with the
wider flange should be
installed uppermost to
support the worktop.
9. Add the lower end beam (E) with
the two connecting slots). Repeat this again for the other end assembly,
making sure that the corresponding lower end beams are at the same
height.
