[. . . ] LEATHER DROP POCKET POOL TABLE MODEL NO. READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING ASSEMBLY. Read each step completely before beginning each step. SOME SMALLER PARTS MAY BE SHIPPED INSIDE LARGER PARTS. CHECK INSIDE ALL PARTS AND CARTONS BEFORE ASSEMBLING OR ORDERING PARTS. [. . . ] Any dirt and debris will prevent end sections from aligning properly. Place end sections #9 back on slats and secure using screws #31 (five screws per end section). NOTE: Be sure there are no gaps between end sections #9 and slats. Run your finger across the two seams between center section #10 and end sections #9 to check for any uneven areas. You should not need shims to even up the table top sections #9 and #10, so if the sections do not align, first try loosening screws and brush out underneath to remove chips etc. . Then check under table to make sure there are no gaps between the table top sections and the slats. However, do not tighten screws so much that the sections begin to crush or crack. Top edges of seams must be precisely level and even with one another. If you need to use shims, read the shimming instructions on the following page. 6 SHIMMING INSTRUCTIONS General Rules !Accomplish the leveling of slate with as few shims as possible. Do not tap with a hammer or tighten screws unreasonable tight. You will not be able to compress the slate. Shims #30 are meant only to raise the low places at the seams and ends. Very short and low places should be grouted. Most leveling can be accomplished by working with the frame. If power tools are used, be sure only enough torque is used to do the job. Seams can best be checked by passing your finger over the seam joint and feeling if it is flush. All screws must be tightened after shimming. Some sets require more, or less, shimming than others. Figure 10 20. STEP BY STEP SHIMMING PROCEDURE A) Be sure table is set in its final location. B) Table must be as level as possible before shimming. Large differences in levelness must be corrected by raising or lowering frame with shim stock. [. . . ] NOTE: If plugs are loose a little wood glue can be used to hold them in place. Figure 20 Page 10 Figure 21 47. Attach side aprons #11 to side rails the same way as described in steps 45 and 46. Place playfield spots #1 on table as shown in figure 22. A day later the table may have settled so check the levelness of the table the same way you did earlier. [. . . ]
