Operating Instructions

The COSTWAY easel offers adjustable features for optimal comfort and versatility during your creative process.

Adjusting Easel Height

The easel's overall height is adjustable from 151 cm to 194.5 cm. This allows you to comfortably paint whether standing or sitting. Loosen the adjustment knobs on the main vertical support, slide the upper section to your desired height, and then securely tighten the knobs.

Adjusting Canvas Support

The sliding canvas support can accommodate canvases up to 92 cm in height. To adjust the canvas tray, loosen the knob located on the side of the tray, slide it up or down to the desired position, and then tighten the knob firmly. The upper canvas clamp also features a pivoting knob to secure the top of your canvas.

Using the Storage Drawer and Tray

The easel includes a large drawer and a spacious tray for organizing your painting supplies. Use the drawer for storing paints, brushes, and other tools, keeping them within easy reach during your creative sessions.

Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity of your COSTWAY easel.

• Cleaning: Wipe the easel with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the beech wood finish.
• Wood Care: As the easel is made of natural beech wood, occasional treatment with wood oil or wax can help maintain its appearance and protect it from drying out.
• Hardware: Periodically check all screws and bolts and tighten them if necessary to maintain stability.
• Storage: When not in use, store the easel in a dry environment away from direct sunlight or extreme temperature fluctuations.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your easel, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Easel feels wobbly: Ensure all assembly screws and bolts are fully tightened. Check that the easel is placed on a level surface.
• Canvas support slides down: Make sure the adjustment knob for the canvas tray is securely tightened after setting the desired height.
• Drawer sticks or is difficult to open/close: Check for any obstructions in the drawer runners. Ensure the drawer was assembled correctly and is aligned within its slot.
• Difficulty adjusting height: Loosen the adjustment knobs sufficiently before attempting to slide the components. Ensure no paint or debris is obstructing the sliding mechanism.
