How to Operate Extension Table Lock Mechanism
Tools required
None
One leaf extension tables usually have two locking locations (
Figure 1
). The inner position is for
locking the table when the leaf is unfolded (
Figure 1-2
). The outer position is for locking the table
when the leaf is folded (
Figure 1-1
). Two leaf extension tables have three locking locations. Similar
to the one leaf table, the inner locking location is for when leaf is folded, the middle locking
position is for when one leaf is open, the outer locking location is for when two leafs are open.
