Step 3:
Align the workbench pedestals over the ends of the support beams and lower them down over the beam
connector plates so that the plates are on the inside of the pedestal tubing. Align the slots in the pedestal
support beam over the inserts in the worksurface and thread the 1/4-20 x .75 HH bolts with the 1/4 washers
into the inserts. Tighten the beam connector hardware. The frame should now be aligned on the worksurface
to even the overhangs on the right and left sides Tighten the beam attachment and the pedestal support
beam hardware. NOTE: Do not over tighten the hardware that goes into the threaded inserts in the
worksurface as this could cause the insert to pull out.
Step 4:
Slide the workbench leg extender into the pedestal tube making sure the plastic insert in the end of the leg
extender is exposed. Align the threads of the leg extender with the holes in the pedestal tube and select the
desired height of the bench. Thread the 1/4-20 x .75 HH bolts with the 1/4 washers into the threaded holes in
the leg extender and tighten. Thread the floor glide into the plastic insert of the leg extender. The floor glides
are used to level the bench when assembly is complete and it is put into position.

Q.S. Plate Caster Leg Extender Kit
HARDWARE KIT QS-HWR0135
For easier installation, it is best to install the plate caster leg extenders while bench in upside down.
Note: If this kit is for an excising bench the leg extenders in that bench will have to be removed.
Slide the plate caster leg extender into the pedestal tube making sure the threaded holes on the plate caster
leg extender tube are on the same side as the holes in the pedestal tube. Align the threads of the leg
extender with the holes in the pedestal tube and select the desired height of the bench. Thread the 1/4-20 x
.75 HHW bolts with the 1/4 flat washers into the threaded holes, two per plate caster leg extender, and
tighten. Install a caster wheel per plate caster leg extender, using four 1/4-20 x 75 HH bolts and eight of the
1/4 flat washers with four 1/4-20 hex keps nuts then tighten.

ESD GROUNDING
HARDWARE KIT QS-HWR 014 and QS-HWR 122
Step 1 Note: do not use power tools for this installation
For ESD worksurfaces and instrument shelves to dissipate static electricity they require the connection of a
ground cord to an earth ground. IAC install grounding studs on each rear corner of all ESD worksurfaces and
instrument shelves. Thread the 1/4-20 coupler nut onto one of these ground studs and tighten it being careful not
to over tighten. Over tightening this coupler nut can cause damage to the connection between the ground stud
and the laminate. Place the eyelet of the ground cord (or cords if you are also grounding an instrument shelf to
the same ground stud) over the 1/4-20 x 1/2" bolt and thread the bolt into the coupler nut. The alligator clip must
attach to an earth ground.
ESD Laminate Testing:
Although IAC conducts connectivity and surface resistance tests at the factory on all ESD worksurfaces and
instrument shelves, IAC recommends that customers conduct their own tests on all ESD worksurfaces and
instrument shelves to ensure that the ground cord installation has been completed correctly and that the ESD
material is working properly.
Cleaning ESD Materials:
ESD laminates are designed to resist abrasion, scuffing, scorching, and most solvents. Intense exposure to
any of these conditions can damage the ESD properties of the laminate and will require the replacement of
the worksurface or instrument shelf. ESD laminate worksurfaces and instrument shelves are cleaned much
the same as non ESD laminated surfaces with a damp cloth and light soapy cleanser. A mild chemical
cleaner can also be used as long as the laminate is not exposed to the chemical for long periods of time.
Stains can be removed with a two minute exposure to a 5% hypo chloride bleach solution immediately
followed by a light soapy cleanser.
ESD Ground Precautions:
1) Connect each workbench worksurface individually to the earth ground.
2) The green wire in a standard wall duplex can be used if it has been absolutely determined that it is
attached to an earth ground.
3) Do not use power tools to install grounding hardware and components.
4) If benches are relocated IAC recommends the ground cords connections be re-tested.
5) Never use abrasive pads or cleansers to clean ESD surfaces.
6) Never wax ESD surfaces and avoid cleaners with wax-based properties.
7) Test ESD worksurfaces and instrument shelves frequently to ensure it is working properly.
