Lay assembled seat on ground. Insert doweled ends of
uprights of the assembled back into the 1 1/4” holes in the
back rail of the seat (adjusting uprights in or out as needed
to align properly with holes). Do not tap on seat back
with hammer.
To keep the back rail from splitting, lay the back on
the ground and drive the seat on by hitting the bottom of
the seat assembly. Figure 1.
Insert the 12” arm support into the 1 1/2” hole in the arm,
then insert other end of arm support into the hole of the
seat end. Drive dowels in as far as possible.
Fasten arm to back frame. Align the predrilled hole in the
back of the arm with the predrilled hole of the back up-
right . The back upright has a preinstalled lag bolt, tighten
the 1/4” x 5” lag screw into the pilot hole of the arm with a
wrench, socket, or power drill. Repeat process for the
other arm. Figure 2.

Measure 15” from the back of each arm and mark

You may change the pitch by altering the location of
the lag screw in the arm.) With hammer, tap a 5” hex
washer head screw through the bottom hole in swing
bar and into pilot hole on seat end. Tap a 5” hex
washer head screw through the upper hole in the
swing bar and into the arm about 1/2” deep at the pen-
cil marked position on the arm. Tighten down lag
screws.
