12. Slide center beam mounting bracket
C-clamps (F), (2) per center beam
mounting bracket (E), into slots on center
beam, pushing the C-clamps tightly
against the mounting brackets (E).
NOTE: The C-clamps (F) must be installed.
13. If applicable, attach suspended storage,
returns and/or electrical components at this
time. (see suspended storage, big table with
return and electrical installation instructions)
14. Lay tops on base assembly. Use install
gauge to properly position tops. See Install
Gauge Guidelines. Attach tops using (2)
#14 x 1" FH wood screws (M) per cradle
(A&H). Secure (2) flat brackets (J) to each
top-to-top connection using (4) #14 x 1"
FH wood screws (M) per flat bracket.
15. Surfaces 48" wide and greater require a spacer
(C) for additional support. When necessary,
a spacer should be placed between
the top of each rail and the underside of
the top, centered on the width of the top.
Spacers are attached to the top using (1) #12
X ¾" black wood screw (D) per spacer.
16. Install center beam end caps, as
needed, to finish beam ends. (See
Center Beam End Cap instructions.)
17. Adjust glides as needed to level big
table assembly.
Big Table with Inset Intermediate Leg
End legs for dual big tables are 25" high
inverted U-shape supports for use at the
ends of big table configurations. Big table
end legs include four cradles, support for
the center beam and two levelers. Cradles
are V-shaped connectors with clamps that
secure the rails at a diagonal over the leg
and fasten the legs and rails to the top.
Intermediate legs for big tables are 25" high
and are shared between adjacent tops.
Big table intermediate legs include four
cradles, support for the center beam, two
top to top brackets and two levelers.
Big table end legs and intermediate legs are
always 50 ½" deep, regardless of 24", 27" or
30" top depths. They are inset 1 ½" from front
edge of 24"D tops, 4 ½" from front edge of
27"D tops and 7 ½" from front of 30"D tops.
End legs can be positioned up to 6" in from the
ends of a big table and intermediate legs must
be mounted directly under the joint of two tops.
Inset intermediate legs for big tables are 25"
high and are shared between adjacent tops.
They offer more knee space than standard
intermediate legs. Big table inset intermediate
legs include four cradles, support for the
center beam, two top to top brackets and two
levelers. Inset intermediate leg overall depth
is 35 ½", regardless of 24", 27" or 30" top
depths. They are are recessed 9" from front
edge of 24"D tops, 12" from front edge of
27"D tops, and 15" from front of 30"D tops.
Desk height end legs, intermediate legs and
inset intermediate legs 25" high support a
worksurface height of 28 ½". Adjustable
height end legs, intermediate legs and
inset intermediate legs 24"H support
worksurface height from 27" to 30".
Construction
Big table end legs, intermediate legs and inset
intermediate legs are steel weldments with 1"
square legs and a 2 ½" horizontal rail. Legs
include 2 ½" levelers with 3/8" stems and
continuous 1 ½" adjustment range. Adjustable
back to back desk legs are 25 ½" - 28 ½"
high including levelers with 5/8" stems
and 3" continuous adjustment range.
Cradles and clamps are cast aluminum
with countersunk fasteners into
legs, mating parts and top.
Specification Options
Big table end legs, intermediate legs and inset
intermediate legs can be specified in any Knoll
core, Dark Red, or Slate Blue paint finish.
Specify cradle finish separately in any Knoll
core, Dark Red or Slate Blue paint finish.
