Thank you for your recent purchase from Lion’s Wood Banquet Furniture. Lion’s Wood has provided you with quality products made in the United States. We hope that you and your team enjoy the benefits of our collection of Presentation tables, Mobile Action Stations, and Portable Bars. Please find the surface option type that you have purchased in the following guide and read the following Care and Maintenance procedures carefully before assembling your tables and using your equipment, including the instructions on this page. We encourage you to also share these care and maintenance instructions with your staff members, banquet set-up members, and any other employees that will play a role in the transportation, care, and usage of your equipment. There are a few simple instructions to follow for all collections. 1. Never stand on the table. Your tables are designed and intended to be used as a piece of furniture. Place food and beverage items on the tabletops only. 2. Do not use your tables as a “Battering Ram” to open doors, or push other tables. Rolling tables into walls and other objects will damage your tables. 3. Do not leave standing water on any wood portion of your tables. 4. Tighten the exterior screws on your table including the screw plate that connects the wheel to the table leg, semi-annually. 5. Caution should always be used when utilizing a rolling table as items can shift in transit or when maneuvering over floor transitions and elevator shafts.
