Congratulations on the purchase of your new
ProTeak Butcher Block Cart!
With proper assembly, use, and care, we are certain
you will find many years of enjoyment with our product.
Tools required for assembly:
#2 Phillips screwgun or electric drill with a #2 Phillips tip
standard #2 Phillips screwdriver
Hex key or hex bit, size 5/32”
NOTE: You may want/need to have help available as the cart may be heavy.
Photos are for reference from a model 701 cart, other models similar.
STEP 1 Unpacking your cart
Set the shelf and legs aside. (and additional insert boards for 703 models). The
butcher block top of your cart may be left in the box during assembly.
BEFORE CONTINUING verify that you are viewing the underside of the “top”. There
should be 4 holes punched near each corner (fig 1.1) where the legs attach. On 701-
707 models you will also have a “ProTeak” logo on one end – this logo should be
upside-down (fig 1.2). If you are NOT viewing the underside of the “top” then you will
need to flip the “top” over. It is easiest to remove the “top” from the box at this point.
You should have 16 large “top” screws (20 screws for metal base models), and 4
smaller “shelf” screws. (fig 1.3)
1.1 notice the mounting holes 1.2 ProTeak logo is upside down 1.3 typical screw set

STEP 2 Attaching the legs
The legs and top of your cart model may be numbered. (fig 2.1) Match the correct leg
to the appropriate position. If the legs are not numbered on your cart model then they
can be attached at any corner HOWEVER take note below.
Each leg has a hole punched near the floor end. (fig 2.2) This hole must face the
opposing leg on the opposite end toward the center as shown. (fig 2.3) This is the hole
where the shelf will mount.
SPECIAL WARNING for model 703 cart with insert boards: on the 703 model you will
only install the 2 OUTSIDE screws on the leg nearest the lowest of the 3 accessory
board cut-outs. (fig 2.5 and 2.6) Failure to follow this instruction may cause damage to
the accessory board. The 2 screws, along with the shelf mounting screw, will hold the
leg securely.
Each leg will attach with 4 screws. (fig 2.4) Be careful not to over-tighten and possibly
strip-out the mounting holes. It is best to drive the screws in most of the way with the
power driver and hand tighten the last few turns. It may be easiest to start all 4
screws on each leg first and then tighten them as a set.
Repeat the process for the remaining 3 legs (noting the shelf mounting hole on each
one).
2.1 if numbered, numbers should
match 2.2 shelf mount hole (metal carts similar) 2.3 shelf hole location
2.4 driving screws 2.5 screws will penetrate the opening 2.6 correct - only 2 screws
STEP 3 Attaching the Handle
(This step is only applicable on models 701, 703, 713, and 715)
Attach the tubular handle at the location of the 4 handle holes with the remaining 4
large screws as provided.
* * IMPORTANT * *
Holes must face each other end to
end and be to the inside of cart

STEP 4 Attaching the Shelf
The shelf will slide down between the legs and may be a somewhat tight fit. Also, be
aware of the top-bottom orientation of the shelf (fig 4.1) so that the shelf is in the
correct position when the cart is turned upright. The underside of the shelf should be
“up” during assembly.
Align the holes in the shelf with the holes in the legs. (fig 4.2) Mount with the 4 small
screws as provided. Again, be cautious NOT to over-tighten the screws and strip the
holes. NOTE: this step may be easier if you attach the shelf at opposing corners first
and “squeeze” the leg against the shelf if necessary. (fig 4.3)
4.1 support bar “up” 4.2 align shelf to holes 4.3 “squeezing” the leg inward
STEP 5 Turn the cart upright
Assembly is complete though this may be the hardest part. Carefully turn your cart
upright taking care not to put excessive angular (side) force on the legs. This is best
achieved if you “tip out” one side of the carton to turn the cart on it’s side (fig 5.1),
then pull the cart outward, then lift the butcher block top into the upright position. (fig
5.2) NOTE: This step may also require the help of another person.
5.1 tip the cart and box over together 5.2 pull the cart out of the box and lift upright
STEP 7 Preparation for initial use
Rub down your new cart down with a food grade mineral oil prior to initial use for
better performance and durability.
(for 703 models also treat insert boards accordingly)
STEP 8 Install accessory boards
(this step is only applicable to model 703 with insert boards)
Verify that there is no debris or obstructions in the insert holes. Carefully slide the 3
insert cutting boards into place.
Your new ProTeak Butcher Block cart is now ready for use. Enjoy!
Thank you for choosing ProTeak
