RIGHT END FRAME INSERTS LEFT END FRAME
BACKS SEAT FRAME
* NOTE
A TENON
B MORTISE HOLE
STEP-I
Unpack, inspect and lay the parts on
a clean, flat, soft surface to avoid
marring the wood.
MIDDLE LEG
NOTE: During assembly of the furniture please match joints with the corresponding letters
or numbers stamped on the wood.
STEP-II
Gently lay the END FRAME with the stamps near the
mortise holes on a clean, flat surface and fit the first
BACK tenons into the END FRAME mortise holes, fit
the MIDDLE LEG into the first BACK. If necessary,
gently rock the parts while pushing down on them until
all the joints fit snugly together.

STEP-III
Carefully fit the SEAT into the END FRAME and secure the MIDDLE LEG to the SEAT
with the KD BOLT provided (this will balance the assembly so it won’t fall over) tighten
with Allen Key. Fit the second BACK tenons into the MIDDLE LEG mortise holes and
gently push into place. Fit the remaining END FRAME mortise holes over all exposed
tenons and using a rubber mallet or a regular hammer with the sanding block between the
hammer and the wood, gently drive all the mortise holes onto the tenons until all joints fit
snugly together.
STEP-IV
Carefully hammer the
proper dowels into the
pre-drilled holes of the
assembly, details are
shown in photographs and
all dowels (and/or dowel bags) are marked to match where they go. NOTE: DO NOT
FORCE THE DOWELS; ANY EXCESS CAN EASILY BE SANDED AWAY. IF THE
DOWELS ARE NOT FLUSH DO NOT CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE DOWELS, YOU
MIGHT DAMAGE THE ITEM.
STEP-V
Upright Settee by lifting it and setting it down; this is a heavy item
and rolling it over to the upright position could put un-necessary
pressure on the joints. Place INSERTS into SEAT FRAME as shown
in photograph.

STEP-VII
***OPTIONAL***
Rubber glides are
provided for your items
but are not necessary.
Secure them to the
bottom of the legs using a proper, hand held screw driver. Using a power driver
might strip the head of the screw or damage the glide. Starter holes are visible as
shown in the first photograph.
