CARE AND MAINTENANCE
You have purchased a quality product that will give you years of enjoyment. By following these simple maintenance steps, you will add to the life of
your new table.
THE TABLE TOP
The top (playing surface) of your table is made of particle board. Like all products made of wood, it can be affected by atmospheric changes in both
temperature and humidity. This may cause a slight sag or distortion as the top expands or contracts. This is normal and should not cause concern
as it does not detract from the play or utility value of the table. After assembly of the table, you can minimize the effects of temperature and humidity
changes by storing the table in the folded up position in a dry area when table is not in use.
STORAGE OF YOUR TABLE
This table must be stored indoors to prevent damage to the playing surface. Dampness and extreme temperature changes can cause the wood to
warp, swell, crack or blister. When your table is not in use, it should be folded up in a dry area. Due to the nature of particle board, table top may
bow. Damp and humid conditions will amplify this. This is normal and will not affect playability of table.
CLEANING YOUR TABLE
To clean your table use a soft, damp (NOT WET) cloth only. To prevent damage to your table's playing surface, DO NOT USE ANY CHEMICALS,
ABRASIVE OR CLEANING PRODUCTS on your table's playing surface.
MAINTENANCE OF YOUR TABLE
Be sure to oil all moving parts of your table including the pivot points. This will insure the safety and ease of use of your table.
This table must be kept indoors to prevent damage to the playing surface. Dampness and extreme temperature changes which occur on patios or
similar areas can cause wood to warp, swell, crack or blister.
UNLEVEL FLOORS
If table does not seem level, it is probably due to uneven or unlevel floors. Set the table in its PLAYING POSITION and move table several inches in
different directions to find the best location for the table. If the floor is extremely unlevel, table may not play or operate properly. If table is high in
the center, shim up under the outer U-legs.
