Package Contents

Verify that all parts are present before beginning assembly. Refer to the assembly diagram for component identification.

• Wooden frame components (various sizes for cabinet, shelves, and back panel)
• Galvanized metal tabletop
• Adjustable plastic feet covers
• Lockable metal latch (lock not included)
• Hardware pack (screws, hinges, etc.)

Note: Some pilot holes may not be pre-drilled. An electric drill with appropriate bits may be required.

Setup and Assembly

Assembly typically requires two people and takes approximately 2 hours. A power screwdriver with low torque settings is recommended.

1. Unpack and Identify Parts: Carefully unpack all components and lay them out. Compare them against the parts list in your included assembly diagram. Pay close attention to similar-looking pieces, as some may be "handed" (left/right specific).
2. Assemble Base Frame: Begin by assembling the main base frame of the potting bench. Ensure the correct orientation of the side panels and support beams. Attach the adjustable plastic feet covers to the bottom of the legs.
3. Install Cabinet and Shelves:
   • Assemble the cabinet structure, attaching the door with hinges.
   • Insert the cabinet shelf. This shelf is removable for larger items.
   • Install the open shelves on the right side of the bench.
4. Attach Galvanized Metal Tabletop: Secure the galvanized metal tabletop to the assembled base. Ensure it is flush and evenly positioned.
5. Assemble Upper Back Panel: Attach the upper back panel with its integrated shelves and hooks to the main tabletop section.
6. Install Latch: Secure the lockable metal latch to the cabinet door and frame. Note that a lock is not included.
7. Final Check: Verify that all screws are tightened and the structure is stable. Adjust the feet covers to level the bench on uneven surfaces.

Operating Instructions

The GDLF Potting Bench Table is designed for various gardening and outdoor tasks.

• Work Surface: Utilize the galvanized metal tabletop for potting plants, mixing soil, or other gardening activities. The metal surface is easy to clean.
• Upper Shelves and Hooks: Store smaller tools, seed packets, or decorative items on the upper shelves. Use the integrated hooks for hanging hand tools, gloves, or other accessories for easy access.
• Cabinet Storage: The enclosed cabinet provides secure storage for items you wish to protect from elements or curious hands. The metal latch allows for a padlock (not included) for added security. The internal shelf can be removed to accommodate taller items.
• Open Shelves: The open shelves on the right side are suitable for larger items like watering cans, buckets, or bags of soil.
• Adjustable Feet: If the bench is placed on uneven ground, adjust the plastic feet covers to ensure stability and prevent wobbling.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your potting bench.

• Galvanized Tabletop: Clean with water and a cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild cleanser can be used.
• Fir Wood Body: Wipe with a damp cloth and mild cleanser as needed. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Weather Protection: Although designed for outdoor use, covering the bench during prolonged periods of rain, snow, or extreme weather conditions is recommended to preserve the wood and finish.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
