ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
USE THE PARTS DIAGRAM AND TABLE AS YOUR GUIDE FOR THIS ASSEMBLY. ASSEMBLY WITH
TWO OR MORE PEOPLE IS MUCH SAFER AND EASIER THAN ASSEMBLING THIS PRESS ALONE!
1. Lay out all the pieces in front of you in an organized fashion so that you can easily access them
throughout assembly.
2. Start at the bottom by assembling the base sections to the frame supports, followed by the
bottom frame support and the base section supports. Use the bolts, washers, and nuts as
numbered in the parts diagram.
3. At this stage, place the base of your press in the location where it will be used, and bolt it to the
floor using appropriate hardware (not included) using the pre-drilled holes in the base
sections. Appropriate hardware will be dependent on what type of floor you are Ensure that
your base is stable prior to proceeding with the assembly.
4. Next, install the upper beam using the bolts, washers, spring washers, and nuts as shown in
the parts diagram. BEFORE TIGHTENING FULLY: check to make sure the assembly is square.
5. Put your support pins into the holes on the frame posts. Note: put them somewhere below the
top holes in the initial set up so that you have room to install your jack plate.
6. Set the press apron on top of your support pins – you will have to angle the press apron to
make it fit inside your frame posts, leveling it out as you lower it onto the support pins.
7. Secure the eye bolts to the jack plate PRIOR to installation of the jack plate. Then, put the jack
plate (with eye bolts installed) onto the press apron – you will again have to angle it initially to
make it fit between your frame posts, leveling it out as you lower it onto the press apron.
8. Hang your springs onto the spring hangers on the upper beam.
9. Be sure to check fluid levels, bleed, and fully test your bottle jack prior to installation.
10. Place the bottle jack on the center of the jack plate, aligning it with the two mounting holes.
Secure it with the two bolts as shown in the parts diagram.
11. Now, slide your jack plate into place and secure the springs to the eye bolts. Note: the bottle
jack will fit in the bracket on the bottom of the upper beam.
