Assembly

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury from unex-
pected starting or electrical shock, never connect
plug to outlet until all assembly steps are com-
pleted and you read and understand all instruc-
tions.

Assembly of Base/Column

1. Locate four (4) 10mm dia. x 40mm long bolts among
loose parts bag.
2. Position base on floor. Remove protective covering and
discard.
3. Remove protective sleeve from column tube and dis-
card. Place column assembly on base, and align holes
in column support with holes in base.
4. Install a bolt in each hole through column support and
base and tighten with adjustable wrench.
5. Locate table crank and support lock in loose parts box.
6. Install support lock from left side into table support and
tighten by hand.
7. Install table crank assembly and tighten set screw with
a 3mm hex "L" wrench. Do not overtighten. Set screw
should be tightened against the flat section of the
shaft.
NOTE: To minimize crank backlash, tighten support lock,
rotate elevation worm shaft clockwise, then assemble
crank tight against table support and tighten set screw.
8. Check column collar for proper adjustment. Collar
should not be angled on the column and it should be
positioned so rack will slide freely in collar when table
is rotated 360° around column tube. If readjusted, only
tighten set screw enough to keep collar in place.
NOTE: To reduce the risk of column or collar damage, do
not overtighten set screw.
