Some assembly ste_s require two people.
Giving Yourself a Good Start
Before you begin the assembly process itself, take
the time to complete the steps outlined here.
Clearing the Workspace
Clear a workspace that is large enough to hold all
parts and allow you to walk all the way around the
assembled equipment.
Unpacking the Box
To make the assembly process as smooth as possi-
ble, we have broken it into separate stages. All parts
used in each stage are found in individual packages
in the shipping box. Place all parts in a cleared area
and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of
the packing materials until assembly is completed.
Important: Wait until you begin each assembly
stage to open the parts bag labeled for that
assembly stage.
Identifying Parts
To help you identify the small parts used in assem-
bly, we have included a PART IDENTIFICATION
CHART located in the center of this manual. Place
the chart on the floor or work table and use it to
quickly identify different parts for each step. Note:
Some small parts may have been pre-attached for
shipping. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to
see if it has been pre-attached.
Orienting Parts
As you assemble this product, be sure that all parls
are oriented as shown in the drawings.
Tightening Parts
Tighten all parts as you assemble them, unless
instructed to do otherwise.
Lining Up the Tools
Assembly requires the following tools (not included):
• Two (2) adjustable wrenches
• One (1) standard screwdriver _=._==,(_
• One (1) phillips screwdriver
• One (1) rubber mallet
• Lubricant, such as grease or petroleum jelly,
and soapy water
• Tape, such as clear tape or masking tape
Assembly will be more convenient if you have a
socket set, a set of open-end or closed-end wrenches
or aset of ratchet wrenches.
