Assembly
INSTALL THE TRAKS
Position the table base (A) at the corner of your workbench with the double
rows of bolt-hole counterbores facing down and the holes beyond the
edges of the bench surface. Insert truss-head bolts (B) from the bottom
through the holes. Thread on nuts (C) until the bolt ends are halfway
through the nuts.
Slide the long Clamp Trak (D) over the protruding nuts along the long
edge of the table base, pushing up the bolts from underneath and
rotating them to align the nut faces with the sides of the Trak slots. Use
a square to align the side of the Trak with the table base edge and the
end of the Trak with the base end. Tighten the bolts with a #3 Phillips
driver.
Using a procedure similar to one above, install the short Clamp Trak (E).
This time, align the Trak end with the edge of the table base and use a
square to ensure that the short Trak is perpendicular to the long Trak.
Tighten the bolts.
Place the table top (F), screw pilot holes down, on the table base. Push
the top into the corner formed by the two Traks and clamp the top to
the base. Turn the assembly over and use a #2 Phillips driver to drive
flathead wood screws (G) through the countersunk holes in the base
and into the pilot holes in the top.
Remove the clamps and turn the table assembly right-side up.
BENCH CLAMPS WITH AUTOMAXX™
Remove the clamps (H) from the plastic hanger card and the plastic tie
from the clamp handle.
Adjust the anchor screw on each clamp with a 3/16" hex wrench to leave
5/16" [8mm] between the clamp base and the bottom of the screw head.
Test-fit the clamp in the Clamp Trak T-slot. Adjust the screw so the
clamp is snug in the Trak but still slides easily.
To increase clamp pressure, turn the knurled-head screw to the left
(viewed from the handle-end of the clamp); for less pressure, turn the
screw to the right.
