Install one of the leveling feet at the bottom of each adjustable leg section.
Slide each adjustable leg section onto a main leg section until you reach the desired
height. Remember that the wood work top is 1.25" thick, so you will need to reduce the
leg length by the 1.25" to hit your targeted height. Make sure the length of each leg is the
same.
Insert one cross brace so that it can be fastened together with the adjustable leg section
and main leg section at the desired height, making sure all holes are lined up. Use four (4)
nuts and bolts to secure the cross brace. Repeat to connect a second leg, which creates
one leg assembly.
Secure the leg assembly with another cross brace at the top of the legs using four (4)
bolts and nuts per leg.
Tighten all nuts and bolts.
Repeat to create the second leg assembly, which will form the other end of the workbench.

7
Line up the holes in the two cross bars with the holes in the top of the leg assemblies.
The cross bar flange will overlap the legs at each end. Secure each cross bar to the top
of each leg using two (2) nuts and bolts.
Connect the braces from the front cross bar to the leg assemblies to improve stability,
using two (2) nuts and bolts for each brace.
Do not tighten fasteners until all legs are connected to the cross bars and braces. Once
all legs are connected, use a level to make sure the frame is straight, then tighten all nuts
and bolts.
Attach the bottom shelf to the bottom cross braces using two (2) nuts and bolts on either
side. The shelf is recessed so that a stool can be tucked under the workbench.

CAUTION: You may require the assistance of a second person to complete this step.
Place the work top on a soft mat with the finished top surface facing down.
Place the steel frame upside down on the work top. The work top should be flush with the
back of the frame – this would be the back of your workbench. It will allow the workbench
to be pushed close to the wall and leave an overhang on the front of the workbench.
Center the frame, right to left.
Mark the holes on the steel frame onto the bottom of the work top. Remove the steel
frame. Drill pilot holds in the bottom of the work top at the locations you have marked.
Place the steel frame back on the work top and secure using the screws that are
included. Six screws are used to attach the work top to each long cross bar and four
screws are used to attach the work top to each short cross brace.
Turn the workbench upright and place in the location it will be used. Check to make sure
the workbench is still level. If you need to adjust, use the leveling feet.
Attach the Montezuma Nameplate to the right hand side of the front cross bar using the
self-adhesive backing.

CAUTION: You may require the assistance of a second person to complete this step.
Build the back wall onto the workbench by slipping a column onto one back corner of the
work top. The column should be nested above and below the work top. Mark the location
of the holes in the bottom of the column on the bottom of the work top. Remove the
column and drill pilot holes in the bottom of the work top. Set the column back in place so
the work top is nested into the column and secure the column in place using the four (4)
lag screws. Repeat on the other side with the remaining column.
Attach the top shelf by nesting it down in the tops of each of the columns. The columns have
been designed with notches to help locate the top shelf into place. Fasten the top shelf to
each of the columns using two (2) nuts and bolts in the side and back of the columns.
Place the column cross brace under the top shelf and secure it to each column with one
(1) nut and bolt. The cross brace is notched so it will set under the top shelf and the end
of the cross brace will overlap the front of each column.
On the back side of the workbench, lift the pegboard panel into place. Line up the holes
of the pegboard panel with the holes in the inside edge of the columns. Secure with three
(3) nuts and bolts. It may be easier to complete this step with one person inserting the
bolts into the holes from the front and another person in back tightening the nut. Secure
the top of the pegboard panel to the top shelf with two (2) nuts and bolts. Repeat this
assembly with the other side of the pegboard panel.
Carefully drill pilot holes in the top of the work top that line up with the holes in the bottom of
the pegboard panel. Screw the bottom of the pegboard panel into place using lag screws.
Check one more time to make sure your workbench and back wall are level. Secure all
fasteners and move into place. Make sure it is level in the area it will be used.
