Secure all fasteners: Double-check that all screws are tight and legs are stable.
Flip table upright: Carefully turn the table right-side up with assistance.

CAUTION! Use two people when flipping the table to avoid injury or damage.

Extending the Table

To use the extra leaf, follow these steps.

Clear items from the table surface.
Pull the two halves of the tabletop apart gently using the handles or edges.
Insert the extension leaf into the gap, aligning it with the tabletop surface.
Push the table halves together until they lock securely against the leaf.
To return to original size, reverse the process and store the leaf in a safe place.

Note: Do not force the mechanism. If resistance is felt, check for obstructions.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will maintain appearance and longevity.

Clean with a damp, soft cloth. Dry immediately.
Use mild soap if needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Protect from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent fading or warping.
Use coasters and placemats to prevent scratches and water rings.
Tighten screws periodically if the table becomes wobbly.

CAUTION! Do not use wax, polish, or silicone-based products as they may damage the finish.

Safety Information

Ensure safe usage, especially around children.

Assemble on a flat, stable surface.
Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 50 kg.
Do not allow children to climb or hang on the table.
Ensure the extension mechanism is fully locked before placing items on the table.
Keep the extension leaf stored safely when not in use.

WARNING! The table is heavy. Lift with your legs, not your back, when moving.
