Screws For Assembly
Do NOT Overtighten The Screws! — Stop turning once resistance is felt; do not exceed one-quarter turn
🧭 Tip: Fasteners differ in length and head shape - lining them up side by side can help with identification
Use The Mat

Dust filters are also available as an accessory for this type of airflow setup
