M-1700 Rocker Assembly Instructions
NOTE: Please check contents and read directions carefully before assembly. If any items are missing
or damaged, do not take the product back to the store. Call Moon Valley customer service at
866.332.1616 and we will correct the problem as promptly and as efficiently as possible. Also,
checking or cracking of the logs is a natural part of the drying aspect of cedar. This does not affect the
structural integrity of the wood. This natural occurrence enhances the rustic beauty of the product.

Assembly
1. Insert doweled end of single-hole leg piece into double-hole leg piece.
Be sure that both remaining holes are facing the same direction (as
shown). Repeat process with remaining two leg pieces.
2. Attach leg assemblies to dowels on both sides of pre-assembled seat
(as shown). Use rubber mallet to ensure secure fit. If using a hammer,
be sure to pad impact area to prevent damage.
3. Insert doweled ends of pre-assembled seat back into the holes at the rear
of the seat assembly. If doweled ends do not line up, gently tap seat back
sidepieces in or out as needed. Tap top of seat back with rubber mallet or
hammer (with padding) to ensure secure fit (as shown).

4. Attach both arm pieces to exposed dowels on the leg assemblies (as
shown). At this point, set Rocker on a flat surface to ensure that all
components are aligned and the Rocker is level. Use rubber mallet or
hammer (with padding) to ensure all dowels are secure in each receiving
piece.
5. Using 2” screws, secure all doweled points (as shown in photo series).
Repeat process for both sides of Rocker.
6. Using pre-drilled holes on seat back side pieces, install a 3 3/8” lag
bolt to secure the arm pieces to the seat back (as shown). Note: It maybe
necessary to first adjust seat back angle according to customer
preference. Once angle is determined, insert 3 3/8” lag bolts, as well as
2” screws into dowels (shown below).
7. Use 2 ½” screws to attach each 9” brace to front of seat bottom and to
the leg assembly (as shown).

8. Lay the Rocker on its side and align the pre-drilled holes of the rocker
runner so they are centered on the front and back legs. Note: The
bottoms of the front and back legs should not extend below the bottom of
the rocker runner. Attach rocker runners to legs using 3 3/8” lag bolts
(as shown in both photos). .
