Troubleshooting
Legs appear wobbly after installation
Ensure all mounting screws/bolts are fully tightened. Check that the bench top surface is completely flat and that the legs are seated evenly. Consider using washers if necessary.
Rust spots appearing on the surface
This may occur with prolonged outdoor exposure. Clean the affected area gently with a soft cloth and apply a thin coat of black metal paint or lacquer specifically designed for cast iron or outdoor furniture.
Difficulty aligning pre-drilled holes
Double-check the placement and orientation of the legs against the bench top. Minor adjustments to the position of the top or the legs might be needed before final tightening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up your A-frame bench legs, align the pre-drilled holes on the mounting plates with your desired bench top or table surface. Secure the legs using appropriate screws or bolts (not included) suitable for the material of your top. Ensure all connections are tight before placing any weight on the furniture.
Compatibility: These legs are compatible with a wide range of bench tops, side table surfaces, and end table materials, including solid wood, composite boards, and other rigid materials. They are designed for flat-surface applications.
Care: To maintain the finish and longevity of the cast iron legs, wipe them clean with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the polished, painted, and lacquered surface. For outdoor use, periodic checks for any signs of wear or corrosion are recommended, with touch-up paint available if necessary.
