LEVELING BASE FRAME
Use a carpenter's level to level table as close as possible.
It is easier to do it now rather than after the playfield has been
attached to the frame.
12. Determine the highest corner of the frame by placing the
level in following two ways:
nCheck frame from end to end as shown in figure 6.
nThen check the table diagonally as shown in figure 7.
13. Once you have determined the highest corner, raise
other three corners by shimming. To do this place
one shim at a time under the lower corners until the
table is level. Leg shim stock is provided in the
slatron bed kit and must be cut to the desired size.
Shims must be placed directly under leg post.

10. Square up long slats #6 by measuring diago-
nally as shown in figure 5. Diagonals should be the
same length within 1/8". Check to make sure the
table is square. If frame is not square, the adjust-
ment can be made by moving table beams #4 in
opposite directions. Usually only a slight adjust-
ment if any should be required.
11. Once frame is square, tighten screws #24
holding slats to beams. Note: Be sure the heads
of screws #24 are flush with or below the top
of the slats.
