THANK YOU! ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
ATTACHING CLOTH TO RAILS
Corner Pockets:
1. Place rail cloth piece over rail with "face" side down. The cloth
should have an equal over-hang at each end of the rail and extend
approximately 1/2" over the featherstrip groove on the cushion side
(Figure 1).
2. Starting at the center of the rail, tap the featherstrip down to
within 1/16" above the rear side of the featherstrip (Figure 1)
using a wood block and hammer.
3. Stretching the cloth tightly from the center toward the ends,
tap the feather strip down to 1/16" while maintaining the half inch
over-hang to within approximately 3" from ends of the featherstrip.

cushion an additional 1/2" toward the cushion then tap the
featherstrip down (Figure 2).

6. Tap the entire length of the featherstrip flush with the top
of rail at the rear side of the featherstrip (Figure 4). Never try
to tap the feather strip flush with just a hammer as you will
dent the rail surface behind the featherstrip.
