Operating Instructions

Lift-Top Function

The coffee table features a hydraulic lift-top mechanism, allowing the tabletop to be raised to a height of 22.6 inches, suitable for use as a workspace or dining surface.

• To Raise: Gently lift the front section of the tabletop upwards. The hydraulic mechanism will assist in a smooth, controlled ascent.
• To Lower: Apply gentle downward pressure to the raised tabletop. The hydraulic mechanism will ensure a slow and controlled descent back to the original coffee table height (18.1 inches).
• Caution: Ensure no objects or body parts are in the path of the lift-top when raising or lowering.

Hidden Storage and Flip Drawer

The table provides ample hidden storage space beneath the lift-top and a convenient flip drawer for easy access.

• Hidden Storage: When the lift-top is raised, the large compartment beneath becomes accessible for storing blankets, books, or other items.
• Flip Drawer: The additional flip drawer allows for easy storage and retrieval of items without needing to move the main desktop. Simply pull the handle to open the drawer.
