Assembling Mantel

WARNING: Use only 1/2" screws to attach metal angle brackets. Damage to mantel will result if other screws are used for this purpose.

IMPORTANT: More than one person is required to lift assembledmantel. Liftmantelbylegassemblies. Lifting by header or mantel top could damage mantel.

When assembling mantel do not tighten screws completely until told to do so. There should be some play in the pieces to allow for proper alignment and best possible fit. It is very important that more than one person assemble mantel. Panels must be held in proper alignment to each other while tightening screws to assure fewer gaps and proper surface align- ment. When tightening screws, do not over tighten. This may cause threads to strip. The supplied Allen wrench should be used rather than a power screwdriver. Panels have threaded inserts installed at screw locations. Screws should start and turn easily in threaded holes when assembled according to instructions. Do not force screws into holes.

IMPORTANT: A serial number label is located inside of right side panel and on outside package. When calling to request technical assistance or for replacement parts please have serial number ready.
