A few important pointers before you start:
• Please read the instructions right through before you start, and check
that all the components have been included in the pack; we nd
separating all the hardware into piles makes it easier to be sure that
everything is present and correct.
• Make sure you have the right tools.Allen keys are provided if required,
but screw drivers and other tools are not. You’ll nd details of the tools
you need at the beginning of the instructions.
• Do not throw away any packing materials until assembly is complete,
just in case you accidentally discard smaller parts or hardware.
Thank you for shopping with GLTC, we hope you enjoy
having this product in your home.
We know assembling furniture, toys or accessories is not everyone’s
favourite way to spend their time, so we’ve tried to make assembling
this item as quick and painless as possible.
Hopefully our efforts will have been worthwhile and you’ll sail
through the whole process. But if it all feels a bit too much
like hard work, then we do have an assembly company we
can recommend: the Flatpack Construction Company offers a
nationwide service and can be contacted on 0843 289 4951 or
