Step-by-step assembly

Step 1
Lay the tabletop upside down on a rug.
A soft surface protects the top while you work.

Step 2 · manual step 1
Screw the 4 double-ended screws into the tabletop.
By hand, clockwise. Half of each screw stays sticking out.

Step 3 · manual step 2
Screw a leg onto a screw, turning it clockwise.
Turn by hand until the leg sits tight against the top.

Step 4 · manual step 2
Screw on the other 3 legs the same way.

Step 5
Turn the table upright.
Tips & safety
- Assemble on a soft surface. The manual warns: on a hard floor the tabletop can get damaged — use a rug or the flattened box.
