Fix the second upper beam (3) in place using four short screws (5). Align the fixing holes in the lower beam (4) with the holes in the two leg frames and fix in place using four short screws (5). Refer to fig.3 Lay the bench top (1) face down on a smooth clean surface. Invert the assembled frame and place it centrally onto the bench top. Align the holes in the upper beams with the holes in the underside of the bench top and fix the frame onto the bench top using six short screws (5). Turn the assembled bench onto its feet. Site the bench in the workplace observing the advice given in section 1. Adjust the feet to compensate for uneven surfaces and lock each foot using the locking nut shown in fig.2.A.

6.2.

Take the three back panel supports and clamp them to the back edge of the

bench ensuring that a clamping plate is inserted between the clamping knob

spindle and the underside of the bench top as shown in fig.5. Adjust the

positions of the uprights until the tool panels can be slotted into position

followed by the bin panels above them as shown in fig.4 . On the outer

uprights the back panels should occupy the inner line of slots leaving one

row of slots visible.

8. VICE MOUNTING CLAMP ASS’Y

8.1.

A Vice Mounting Clamp API10 can be purchased as an optional extra to provide a base plate to which a vice can be mounted. The

mounting clamp also allows the vice to be stored out of the way, below the bench, when a full free work surface is required.

8.2.

Fig.7 below shows the clamp in the stowed away orientation. The mounting bars have to be removed from the clamp and positioned

under the bench as shown in fig.8-V. Place each bar in a diagonal orientation under the bench top then turn it so that the ends

are over the upper beams. Allow the slots in the ends of the mounting bars to rest over the upturned edges of the beams.

fig.8

fig.7

8.3.

The main clamp is attached to a tube which is a sliding fit inside

the main mounting tube. Withdraw the clamp from the mounting

tube and fix the mounting tube to the two bars `V’, under the

work top using four short bolts as shown in fig.9.

fig.9

fig.10

8.4.

Insert the clamp tube into the mounting tube as shown in fig.10-Y and rotate the clamp so that it is uppermost. Push the clamp tube into

the mounting tube until the clamp comes up against the edge of the bench and laps over the top of it as shown in fig.11.

8.5.

Loosen and remove the four bolts on the front of the clamp and lift the top plate away. Bolt the chosen vice to the top plate ensuring that

the fixings are within the depth of the plate. Place the vice and plate back onto the top of the bench over the lower part of the clamp and

bolt the two parts back together again. Tighten the clamping knob on the underside of the clamp assembly. See fig.10-Z.

8.6.

To stow the vice under the bench loosen the clamping knob

on the underside of the clamp assembly. See fig.10-Z. Keeping a firm hold on the assembly pull the vice and top plate forwards

fig.11

until they are clear of the bench edge. Allow the assembly to

slowly rotate through 180º until it is hanging downwards.

Push the assembly under the front edge of the bench until it is

in the orientation shown in fig.7.
