ASSEMBLY OF UNASSEMBLED BOOKCASE
T
wo people are recommended for assembly. Approximate assembly time: 15-20 minutes.
Tools Required: A Phillips head screwdriver insert and 3/8” nut driver (included).
The reference numbers used throughout this sheet refer to the illustration on the back cover.
This is to help you to identify the various parts as they are mentioned.
3.
Fasten each upright to the back using Tinnerman clips (Ref. No. 7).
Place one Tinnerman clip over each of the slotted holes.
4.
Place the bottom shelf (Ref. No. 4) into position by slipping
into slots on uprights. It may be necessary to pry uprights
apart slightly to move bottom shelf into position.
1.
Place the back (Ref. No. 1) on a flat surface.
NOTE: There is no “right” or “left” upright; both uprights
are the same. There is a small unslotted area at the end
of each upright; when properly installed, these will not
be directly across from each other, but on opposite ends
of the unit.
NOTE: Do not place the screws into the Tinnerman
clips yet. The back will be screwed into place in step 7.
NOTE: As mentioned in Step 2, the uprights have
an unslotted area at one end which will be at
the top of the unit on one side and at the
bottom of the unit on the other side. This means
that the bottom shelf will be inserted in the
second slot from the bottom on the upright with
slots all the way to the bottom, but in the first slot
from the bottom on the opposite upright (the one
with the slotless area at the bottom).
5.
Secure the bottom shelf to the uprights with two 10-24 x
1/2” bolts and two nuts (Ref. No. 9) on each end.
Then insert one 10-24 x 1/2” bolt and nut into the center
of each end of the bottom shelf and upright. Next, bolt the
bottom shelf to the back of the bookcase with three
10-24 x 1/2” bolts and nuts.
6.
Temporarily insert the shelf (Ref. No. 6) near the top of
the unit to keep uprights stationary after unit is turned
on it’s side.
2.
Place the upright (Ref. No. 2)
on either side of the back. Be
sure that the flat edge of
the upright is facing
outward as shown.
