TOOLS & MATERIALS NEEDED:

• Drill
• 1/8″ Drill Bit
• 8 mm Socket
• Stud Finder

Screwdriver| QTY DESCRIPTION
1 Wood Top
2 Mounting Brackets

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Determine and mark the desired height of the workbench on the wall with a pencil. (NOTE: The bench is designed to operate at a height of 30″ to 72″.)

2. Use a stud finder to find the closest stud and mark the location. Then measure 2-1/4″ down from your predetermined workbench height and predrill a hole with the 1/8″ bit.

3. When the hole is predrilled, fold down the spring support plate and secure the top bolt and washer using your 8 mm socket through the bracket and into the stud behind the wall. Make sure the support plate is all the way down so it does not create a pinch point.

4. Measure 24″ or 32″ to the left or right from your first located stud and locate your other mounting position using the stud finder. (NOTE: Stud spacing in American Residential Settings is 16″ or 24″ on center and your New Quick Bench must be anchored to the center of the Studs.)

5. Repeat the previous process and install the top bolt on the second mounting bracket.

6. Use a level to make sure both brackets are level, and then pre drill the remaining holes on each bracket.

7.  Make sure all 6 anchor screws and washers are fastened securely into studs on the vertical walls before continuing.

8. Lift the brackets into the UP position with the latches set at a right angle and the locking bracket LOCKED as seen below.

9. Place the countertop on the brackets with the back edge securely against the stop tab on the bracket. (NOTE: This will leave a 1/4″ space between the wood top and the wall.)

10.  Center wood top between the brackets.
    ( NOTE: If the brackets are placed 16″ apart, the ends of the bench will be 16″ from the outside of the brackets. If the brackets are placed 24″ apart, there will be 12″ from the ends to the outside of the brackets.)

11. Have a second person hold the board in place to make sure it does not move or fall. Mark the desired screw locations and predrill holes not more than 1″ deep with 1/8″ bit. Screw the 6 – 1″ screws into the underside of the countertop to fasten the board in place.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:

PLEASE NOTE: AFTER THE ASSEMBLY IS COMPLETE AND BEFORE USING YOUR BENCH, IT IS IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND LOCATIONS IN AND AROUND YOUR HINGES WILL CREATE PINCH POINTS.

1. Ensure the bench is clear of all items that could interfere with the bench’s range of motion and that all bolts and screws are securely fastened to the studs and the countertop.
2. To raise the bench, lift the bench upward until you hear the brackets click and lock into place.
3. To lower the bench, stand in front of the bench and use your fingers to locate the release on the end of both brackets. Slightly lift then press the releases and lower the bench to the wall. When you lower the bench it will fit flush against the wall.
