Setup Instructions

Assembly typically requires two adults. Ensure you have adequate space and the necessary tools (usually included or standard household tools).

  1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches. Keep all packaging materials until assembly is complete.
  2. Assemble Table Base: Attach the pedestal legs to the central column of the table base using the provided hardware. Ensure all bolts are tightened securely, but do not overtighten.
  3. Attach Table Base to Playfield: Carefully place the bumper pool playfield upside down on a protected surface. Align the assembled table base with the pre-drilled holes on the underside of the playfield. Secure the base to the playfield using the designated bolts and washers.
  4. Position the Table: With assistance, carefully flip the table upright and move it to its desired location. Ensure the table is level.
  5. Place Table Top: The reversible table top has a dining surface on one side and a poker surface on the other. Place the desired side facing up onto the bumper pool playfield. The top should sit securely.

Operating Instructions

To use the table as a dining surface, ensure the reversible table top is placed with the smooth, finished side facing upwards. This mode is suitable for meals, board games, or general use.

2. Poker Table Mode

To convert to poker mode, carefully lift and flip the table top so the padded, leatherette playing surface with chip racks and cup holders is facing upwards. The table is designed to accommodate up to 8 players for card games.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning the Wood Finish: Wipe the wood surfaces with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the finish.
  • Cleaning the Poker Surface: The padded leatherette surface can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Dry immediately.
  • Cleaning the Bumper Pool Felt: Use the included table brush to gently remove dust and debris from the felt. For deeper cleaning, a specialized billiard cloth cleaner may be used sparingly, following product instructions.
  • Accessory Care: Store pool cues straight to prevent warping. Keep balls clean.
