mounted prior to table leg installation.
Center of table leg will sit approximately 3-1/4″ from the edge of the raceway
cover. Route cables prior to installing the raceway cover.
NOTE: Desired hole in table should be offset from table leg center to
accommodate proper mounting of table leg.
Measure the height from the floor to the underside of the table. Channel
should be between 3-1/2″ and 4″ shorter than measured height.
If necessary, cut channel from bottom edge to accommodate.
NOTE: Desired hole in table should be offset from table leg center to
accommodate proper mounting of table leg.
Secure mounting brackets to top and bottom of channel using provided hardware.
Use the holes closest to the ends of the channel for assembly.
Do not fully tighten the mounting bracket at this time.
Pre-drill holes in infrastructure if necessary. Secure bottom mounting bracket
to floor with proper hardware.
(Concrete screws provided)
