6.Remove the M8-1.25 x 30 cap screws, and 8mm flat washers and lock washers from the ends of the main table.

7.Inspect the extension wings and main table mating surfaces for burrs or foreign materials that may inhibit assembly.

The mating edges of the wings and the table must be clean, smooth, and flat. Use a wire brush or file if necessary to clean up the edges. This step will ensure that the wings mount properly to the main table.

8.While a helper holds the wings in place, attach each extension wing to the main table with the four M8-1.25 x 30 cap screws, 8mm lock washers and 8mm flat washers removed in Step 6 (Figure 16).

9.Place the straightedge across the extension wings and main table to make sure that the combined table surface is flat.

—If the combined table surface is flat, skip to the next step.

—If the outside end of the extension wing tilts down, use a strip of masking tape along the bottom edge of the main table to shim the extension wing up (Figure 17).
