KENDALL HOWARD Assembly and Maintenance Manual Workbenches LAN Stations And Accessories
Your New Performance Workstation Congratulations on your new Kendall Howard Performance LAN Station Workbench. This manual will step you through the assembly process. If you have trouble, please feel free to call our customer service department from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM CST. Step 1. Inventory Please be sure that you unpack the crate completely and take a complete inventory of what you have received. This will save you much time if parts are missing and you have to stop in the middle of the build process.
Step 2. Assemble the Upper Shelves Place the upper shelves so that the hardware inserts are facing up. Next, place one of the cross bars on the shelf lining up the holes on the shelf with the brackets on the cross bar. Insert (2) cross head screws but DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN. You will notice a small gap between the bracket and the shelf. This was designed so that after the bench is assembled, you will tighten all the cross head screws which will pull the shelf down tight against the frame.
Step 3. Assemble the Work Surface With the work surface placed with the hardware inserts facing up, attach 2 cross bars to the shelf with (4) cross head screws but DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN. You will notice a small gap between the bracket and the shelf. This was designed so that after the bench is assembled, you will tighten all the cross head screws which will pull the shelf down tight against the frame.
Step 4. Assemble the Lower Shelf Place the lower shelf so that the hardware inserts are facing up. Next, place two of the cross bars on the shelf lining up the holes on the shelf with the brackets on the cross bar. Insert (4) cross head screws but DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN. You will notice that one of the crossbars will overlap the shelf. This feature will be used if you purchased the bottom add-on shelf.
Step 5. Frame Assembly On this step you may want to have someone help you with the assembly. Attach the Lower shelf to left side with (2) 1 ½ Hex Drive Bolts. Next assemble the Right side in the same way. DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN YET. Screw in the (4) Levelers provided into the bottom of the frame (Not shown in the picture). If you purchased the optional caster kit, you may replace the levelers with the casters at this point.
Step 6. Attach the Work Surface Stand the bench in its upright position and place the work surface on top of the bench. Attach work surface with (4) 1 ½ Hex Drive Bolts on each side. You may now tighten both the Hex Drive Bolts and the cross head screws on both the work surface and the lower shelf.
Step 7. Attach Cable Tray and Shelf Channels Place the Cable Tray/Shelf Support in the correct position and insert (4) 2 ½” Hex Drive Bolts. Next, turn the Channel Nut onto each of the 4 bolts just until the nut is flush with the end of the bolt and pointing up. IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE THAT THE GROOVES IN THE CHANNEL NUT ARE FACING THE BENCH. There should be about 1” of space between the nut and the frame. .
Step 8. Attach Upper Shelves Insert a 1 ½ Hex Drive Bolt into each shelf support hole and place a channel nut onto the bolt as you did for step 9. Remember to keep the hex bolt facing up and down. Place the shelf on the shelf channel with the channel nuts inside. Tighten the bolts and cross head screws. Make sure these bolts are very tight.
Step 9. Add the Plastic End Caps Insert the plastic end ¾” round caps into the left and right side frames as well as the upper shelf supports.
