Drawing Table Assembly Instructions
•
Lay the table on its back before making height adjustments.
•
It is critical that the five bolts connecting each foot piece to the uprights are kept securely tightened
to ensure lasting strength and stability. We recommend that you retighten these seasonally.
•
The easiest way to “seat” the heads of the bolts into the wood for the assemblies that include
butterfly nuts is to temporarily replace the butterfly nut with one of the black adjustment knobs.
This will give you the grip you need to pull the bolt head into the wood.
