Components:
A—Outside leg section with 6 dowel rods
B—Inside leg section with white wipe-off markerboard
C—Big Book Lip
D—Center Rack with 2 dowel rods
Step 1—Open Hardware pack:
- Insert 2 dowel pins in Big Book Lip (C).
- Attach plastic locks to center rack (D) using small brass screws
(see inset).
- Use remaining bolts, washers and wing nuts for assembly.
Step 2—Assembly:
1. Lay inside section (B) flat on rug or carpet, white surface down.
2. Place outside section (A) on top of inside section, matching pre-
drilled holes near the top of each easel leg. (Note: dowel rods should
be oriented closer to you. If pre-drilled holes do not line up, reverse
section (A) and try again.)
3. Working from the outside inward, insert bolts through holes,
securing with washer and wing nut (see inset).
4. Stand easel upright, and separate legs to form a stable ‘A-frame’.
Slide Center Rack (D) over bottom dowels connecting each leg component.
Position notches over the dowels and lower into place. Secure by sliding plastic
locks under dowels (see inset).
5. Attach easel lip with remaining hardware, working from the front toward the
back. Orient pegs up for Big Book use, down for other easel uses.
6. To store easel, unlock one center rack side - lift, then lower rack so it hangs
down. Easel legs will easily fold together for storage.
Wipe-off Markerboard Surface: Choose high quality “dry erase wipe-off markers” for
your easel to get the best results. We suggest you test markers on a corner of the board to
insure easy erasure before general use, as individual markers vary. Be sure to clean the en-
tire surface regularly. Marker left on the surface for several days may leave a stain. Use
commercial board cleaners sparingly, avoiding abrasive cleaners.
Caution: Check all hardware regularly to insure tightness. Hardware parts are small, so
may pose a choking hazard to young children. We suggest supervising children under the
age of five.
