Important Safety Information
Always follow these safety guidelines to prevent injury or damage to the product:
- Weight Capacity: Do not exceed the maximum recommended weight of 25 pounds on the table surface. Overloading can cause the table to collapse.
- Stable Surface: Always set up the table on a flat, stable, and level surface to prevent tipping.
- Pinch Points: Exercise caution when folding and unfolding the table to avoid pinching fingers or hands in the folding mechanisms.
- Children: Keep children away from the table during setup and folding. Do not allow children to climb on or play under the table.
- Heat Sources: Do not place hot items directly on the table surface without adequate protection, as this may damage the polyethylene top.
- Cleaning: Use only mild cleaning agents. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface.
Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to properly set up your STAPLES 8-Ft Folding Table:
- Unpack: Carefully remove the table from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage.
- Position: Place the folded table on a clear, flat area with the tabletop facing down.
- Unfold Legs: Locate the leg assemblies. Gently swing each leg assembly outwards until it is fully extended.
- Lock Legs: Ensure that the locking mechanisms on each leg are fully engaged. You should hear a click or feel the mechanism lock into place. This prevents accidental folding.
- Upright Table: With assistance if needed due to the table's size, carefully flip the table upright onto its legs.
- Verify Stability: Gently push down on the table surface to ensure all legs are firmly on the ground and the table is stable before placing any items on it.
