Wrenches 3/8" 1/2" 7/16" 3/8" drive with 3" to 6" extension Screwdrivers #2 Phillips Head Screwdriver Flat Head Screwdriver Drill Bits 7/32" (0.218") Worksurface Pilot holes for Lower Bench components 3/16" (0.187") Worksurface Pilot holes for Upper Bench components General Tools Center Punch and Flat Punch Hammer Electric Hand Drill Measuring Tape Before Assembling the Workbench If the Nexus Accessory System will be installed: Drill the worksurface and install inserts before assembling the workbench. See Nexus Accessory System, Instructions for Assembly. Read through the assembly instructions to familiarize yourself with the order in which the parts are assembled. It is suggested that you complete all types of assembly with the worksurface upside-down on top of the shipping carton. It is important to assemble the components in the same sequence as described in this manual. For technical support or questions, call 1-800-722-3020. The information listed in this document provides instructions for assembling Lista Workbenches. This document provides brief instructions for attaching worksurfaces made by other manufacturers. Refer to that manufacturer's instructions and requirements for specific drilling and assembly information. Lista is not responsible for the quality, construction, or assembly of other manufacturer's products used in conjunction with Lista products. Types of Worksurfaces and Hardware The following table describes the types of worksurfaces and the hardware used for attaching legs or cabinets. Type of Worksurface Butcher Block , Lista, Plastic, or ESD Phenolic Resin Hardware Used for Attaching Legs and Cabinets Six 5/16 x 1 ¼" Hex Flange screw Four #14 x 3/4" slotted hex screws with washers 4 Hardware Illustrations Refer to the following to help determine which hardware component to use when assembling a Lista workbench. Diameter - Pitch x Length and Type 5/16 x 1¼" Hex Flange Screw (for Butcher Block, Lista, Plastic, and ESD worksurfaces) 5/16 - 18 x 5/8" Hex Head Bolts (for use with Casters) Illustrations 3/8 - 16 x1¼" Hex Head Bolts (for use with Glides) 5/16 - 18 x ¾" Phillips Pan Head Screws ¼ - 20 x ½" Hex Head Bolts #10 x ½" Phillips Head Self-Tapping Screws #10 - 24 x ¼" Phillips Head Round Screws #14 x ¾" Slotted Hex Head Screws ¼ - 20 x ½" Phillips Head Round Screws ¼ - 20 Kep Nuts 5/16 ­ 18 x ¾" Hex Head Bolt and Kep Nuts 5/16 X 5/8" Washer 5 Assembling the Lista Workbench The following sections provide step-by-step instructions for assembling the Lista workbench, including attaching components such as Privacy Panels and various types of shelves. Assembling the Technical Legs Step 1a 1b 2 3 Action (Refer to Figure 1) Leveling Glides: Insert the Leveling Glides (two per leg) into the bottom of each foot, as shown. Casters: Secure each caster with four 5/16-18 x 5/8" bolts and square nuts. Make sure that the casters with brakes are installed on the front foot of each leg. Attach the Foot Cover (2 per leg) to each foot by engaging the small end of the Cover into the notches of the foot and snapping it down into place. Note: The tapered end of the Covers face away from the center of the leg. Snap the Toe Caps securely to each end of the foot. Note: If attaching a Stringer, refer to instructions below before proceeding with Steps 4 and 5. You will be required to punch through two knockouts for Stringer or Bottom Shelf installation. Choose knockouts equal in height to holes in the opposite Leg or Cabinet. Firmly snap the Handle into the Access Panel with the pocket facing up. Tilt the top of the Access Panel forward under the top of the leg, then angle the bottom so that it is parallel with the box. Make sure that the notches in the Panel can drop down into the lances of the leg. 4 5 Tip: If the lances of the Leg seem tight, use a flathead screwdriver to gently pry them open. Attaching Technical or Lista Legs to the Worksurface Most Lista worksurfaces are pre-drilled with pilot holes. Resin Tops are not pre-drilled at the factory. If you are using a worksurface from a different manufacturer or if you have a Resin Top, please refer to "Drilling Specifications for Non-Lista Worksurfaces" on page 16. Note: If you purchased a Leg/Cabinet, two-Cabinet configuration, or Hanging Drawer, refer to page 8 for instructions on attaching a cabinet to your worksurface. Attaching the Legs Step 1 2 Action Align the hole pattern of the legs with the hole pattern of the worksurface. Note: If attaching Lista Legs, the flange at the top of the leg should face out towards the edge or end of the worksurface. For Technical Legs, the smooth inside surface of the leg should face in towards the center of the workbench. 3 Insert six 5/16" x 1 ¼" Hex Flange screws to attach each leg to the worksurface. Screw until secure, but do not overtighten. For Resin Tops, use #14 x 3/4" Slotted Hex Head screws with washers. (Refer to Figure 1 ) Place the worksurface upside-down onto the corrugated cardboard (shipping carton) to protect the surface. Attaching a Stringer or Bottom Shelf Step 1 2 3 Action (Refer to Figure 2) Align the hole pattern of the Stringer (or Bottom Shelf) with the hole pattern of the Leg(s) so that it is centered. Insert two 5/16" Hex Head bolts through the Stringer (or ¼" - 20 Hex Head bolts for Bottom Shelf) and into the hole pattern of the Leg(s). Secure with two Kep nuts. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for other leg. For Technical Legs, install the Access Panel now. Refer to instructions above. Attaching a Hanging Cabinet Step Action (Refer to Figure 3) Note: The difference between a Hanging Cabinet and a Hanging Drawer is the size. Hanging cabinets are 13 3/4" or greater. If you purchased a Hanging Drawer, refer to "Attaching Hanging Drawer to Worksurface" on page 8. 1 2 Remove the drawer from the Hanging Cabinet and tap the knock-outs at each corner of the cabinet to open the holes. Place the Hanging Cabinet down into position with the drawer opening facing the front. Insert six 5/16" x 1 ¼" Hex Flange screws down through the inside top of the cabinet and into the worksurface. Screw until secure, but do not overtighten. 6 Figure 1 Technical Leg Assembly Figure 2 Stringer/Bottom Shelf Attachment (stringer shown) Figure 3 Legs and Hanging Cabinet Attachment 7 Attaching Cabinets to the Worksurface Step 1 2 3 Action (Refer to Figure 4) Remove the top drawer(s) from the cabinet to access the hole knock-outs at the top of the cabinet. Using a flat punch or other blunt object, tap the four knock-outs at each corner of the cabinet to open the holes. Place the worksurface upside-down on the shipping carton and position each cabinet on top of the workbench. Note: Make sure that the opening of the cabinet faces the front of the worksurface. Most worksurfaces are stamped with a "Front" marker. 4 5 6 7 From inside the open drawer area of the cabinet, align the hole patterns of the cabinet with the pre-drilled hole patterns in the worksurface. Insert four 5/16" x 1 ¼" Hex Flange screws down through the inside of the cabinet and into the worksurface. Screw until secure, but do not overtighten. For Resin Tops, use #14 x 3/4" Slotted Hex Head screws with washers. To install the Stringer (or Bottom Shelf), align the hole patterns of the Stringer (or Bottom Shelf) with the inner two hole patterns of the Cabinet(s). ...
