Get Ready to Start
Before assembly, use scissors to unwrap the parts from the packaging. DO NOT use a box cutter or
Step 1 | Step 1 |
Locate the base and place it on the floor. Do not put it up against the wall at this point in the assembly, as you need to get in behind the mantel to insert several wingnuts, lock washers and firebox screws.
Step 2
Locate the left side panel and the left front panel. Facing the front of the base, take the left side panel, positioning it so the holes in the blocks on the bottom line up with the holes on the base. Position the left front panel next to the left side panel, lining up the holes in the blocks with the holes on the base. Attach the left front and side panel to the base by inserting and tightening 1 wingnut and 1 lock washer to each piece. Attach the left side and front panels together by inserting and tightening 2 wingnuts and 2 lock washers.
Step 3
Repeat Step 2, but with the right side panel and the right front panel.
Step 4
Locate the central header that will be attached to the left and right legs and will sit above the firebox. Position this panel with the finished side facing the front of the mantel. Line up the holes on each side and insert and tighten 1 wingnut and 1 lock washer on each side.
Step 5
Get your assistant and locate the top of your mantel. This top is very heavy. It will take 2 people to lift and position it in place. Ensure the top goes over the positioning guide located on the header. The top must go over this guide to be positioned correctly. Line up the holes on the top of the mantel, insert and tighten 5 wing nuts and lock washers.
