- Assemble the Base Frame: Connect the base frame panels (B) using the provided hardware from pack (E). Ensure all connections are secure.
- Attach the Legs: Securely attach the four table legs (C) to the assembled base frame using the appropriate hardware. Ensure the angled legs are oriented correctly for stability.

4. Operating Instructions
The Shintenchi CJ001 coffee table features a versatile lift-top design and hidden storage.
4.1. Using the Lift-Top Function
To raise the tabletop, gently pull the front edge of the table upwards. The hydraulic lifter will assist in a smooth and quiet ascent. To lower, gently push the tabletop down until it rests in its original position. Ensure no objects are obstructing the mechanism during movement.

5. Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity of your coffee table.
- Cleaning: The smooth tabletop is waterproof and easy to clean. Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Spills: Wipe up spills immediately to prevent staining.
- Protection: Use coasters for drinks and placemats for hot items to protect the surface.
- Inspections: Periodically check all screws and bolts for tightness and re-tighten as necessary.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your coffee table, refer to the following common solutions:
- Tabletop is wobbly: Ensure all leg and frame connections are securely tightened. Check that the table is on a level surface.
- Lift mechanism is stiff or uneven: Ensure no objects are caught in the mechanism. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the moving parts if necessary. If the issue persists, re-check the installation of the lift mechanism.
- Scratches on surface: While the material is scratch-resistant, deep scratches can occur. Use furniture repair kits for minor damage.
