3. Package Contents

Please verify that all components are present before beginning assembly:

• 1x Desk (Tabletop)
• 1x Assembly Instruction Manual
• Installation Tools (Allen wrench, small wrench)
• Steel Frame Components (legs, support bars)
• Four 1.5 inch Casters with Stop Plugs

4. Setup and Assembly

Assembly is designed to be straightforward, typically taking about 10 minutes with the included tools. For best results, it is recommended to have two people for certain steps, especially when attaching the tabletop.

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches.
2. Attach Casters: Screw the four 1.5-inch casters into the bottom of the leg frames. Ensure two casters with brakes are placed on one side and two without brakes on the other, or as preferred for functionality. Tighten them securely using the provided small wrench.
3. Assemble Leg Frames: Connect the vertical and horizontal steel frame components to form the two side leg assemblies. Ensure all connections are firm.
4. Attach Top Support Bars: Insert the curved top support bars into the top of the assembled leg frames. These bars will extend over the bed.
5. Mount Tabletop: With assistance, carefully place the tabletop onto the top support bars. Align the pre-drilled holes on the tabletop with the holes on the support bars. Secure the tabletop using the provided screws and Allen wrench. Ensure all screws are tightened evenly to prevent wobbling.
6. Install Side Panels (if applicable): Attach any decorative or functional side panels to the tabletop using the remaining screws and Allen wrench.

5. Operating Instructions

The TigerDad Overbed Table is designed for flexible use and easy adjustments.

5.1 Adjusting Height and Length

• Height Adjustment: Locate the adjustment knobs on the vertical support bars of the leg frames. Loosen these knobs, adjust the table to your desired height (between 25.6 and 37.4 inches), and then firmly tighten the knobs to secure the position.
• Length Adjustment: The table's length can be adjusted by sliding the main tabletop frame along the curved support bars. Loosen the securing mechanisms (usually knobs or clamps) on the main frame, extend or retract the table to fit your bed (between 55.1 and 82.7 inches), and then re-tighten the mechanisms.

5.2 Mobility and Stability

• Moving the Table: To move the table, ensure all wheel brakes are disengaged. Gently push or pull the table to its desired location.
• Securing the Table: Once the table is in position, engage the brakes on the casters to prevent unwanted movement.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the tabletop and frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
• Fastener Check: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary.
• Caster Care: Keep the casters free of debris (hair, dust, etc.) to ensure smooth rolling. Lubricate if needed.
• Storage: If storing the table, ensure it is clean and dry. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.

7. Troubleshooting

• Table is Wobbly: Check all assembly screws and adjustment knobs. Ensure they are fully tightened. Verify that the table is on a flat, even surface.
• Difficulty Adjusting Height/Length: Loosen the adjustment knobs sufficiently before attempting to slide the components. Ensure no obstructions are present in the adjustment mechanisms.
• Casters Not Rolling Smoothly: Check for hair or debris wrapped around the wheels. Clean the casters thoroughly. Ensure brakes are disengaged.
• Tabletop Scratches: While the MDF panel is durable, avoid dragging sharp objects across the surface. Use coasters for drinks and protective mats for heavy items.
