PARTS

HELPFUL HINTS

PART IDENTIFICATION
Use “PART IDENTIFICATION” picture (in each step) and exploded view (on previous page) to identify parts!
Look for part letter “stamping” in unfinished edges of part.
Note overall shape of part. Count and locate holes in each part.

FINISHED VS. UNFINISHED
It is important to understand how finished edges go together. Take a moment to lay out all the wood pieces and note the finished and unfinished (raw wood) edges. Arrange pieces so all finished edges are facing the same way. While assembling, take care to note in each diagram which way finished edges are facing. In general, all finished edges will face forward and all finished sides (large area of piece) will face up when product is fully assembled and upright.
