GENERAL INFORMATION
The following sections provide step-by-step instructions for attaching Starter and Adder sections to your work bench. A Starter consists of two uprights and a horizontal rail. The Starter can be used by itself on top of the work bench. The Adder is a unit that is attached to the Starter and to itself an infinite number of times. If you want to increase the length of the sytem, you simply attach an Adder to the Starter and continue to attach Adders onto existing Adders to lengthen. Adders consist of one upright and one horizontal rail. Before Assembling the Nexus Accessory System Before you begin assembling the Nexus Accessories you should read through the assembly instructions to familiarize yourself with order in which the parts are assembled. It is important to assemble the components in the same sequence as described in this manual.
