This base can be used with 42", 48", or 60" wide top.

10 Inspect tabletop carefully and choose which side you want facing up for use. This side should be placed face-down on a carpeted or otherwise protected floor to avoid scratches.

11 Carefully turn base frame assembly upside down and

place on tabletop. This may require two people.

12 Position base assembly so that front hinges are 1½" from the front edge of the tabletop, as shown in diagram. Hinges should also be centered evenly between left and right sides of tabletop.

13 Adjust and position rear mounting brackets so they are 19½" from the front edge of the table top and centered evenly between left and right sides, as shown in diagram. Brackets should sit flush on the tabletop surface with the rods facing straight up and down.

14 Mark locations of all 12 holes with a dark pencil or marker and then use an awl or drill with 1⁄16" bit to make starter holes. Use care not to drill all the way through the tabletop.

15 Attach front hinges and rear brackets to tabletop using ¾" Phillips screws (I). Tighten securely but use care not to over tighten and strip.
