How to fold a small Lifetime table

Lifetime products fold-in-half tables are the perfect addition to your next barbecue, meeting, or family get-together. If you have questions on how to properly fold and unfold your table, we have just a few tips and instructions for you. Lifetime fold-in-half tables have two folding mechanisms, a locking clip and an automatic locking system. To unfold a Lifetime fold-in-half table with locking clip, locate the mullet hand-slot where the ends of the table are and pull the table open. Because of the durable design to keep the table securely closed, it may require a little extra pressure to open. Find the red tab clip at the center edge of the table and push it to the indicated lock position. Set each leg so they are straight and make sure the steel rings slide into place before setting the table upright. To fold a table when not in use, set the table on its side and slide the steel rings away from the leg hinges. Fold in one leg at a time. If the leg doesn't fold with a simple push, place a small amount of pressure on the hinge with your hand and it will fold easily. Unlock the clip by pushing it to the indicated unlock position and close the table, making sure it is tightly secured. Now you can carry it to storage with easy-carry handles on the side. To unfold a Lifetime self-locking fold-in-half table, rest the table on its side with the handles facing up and unfold. When opening both legs, the unique fixed position on the center bar will automatically lock the pin, keeping the table open. Unfold the second set of legs and set the table upright. When it comes time to fold the table after use, simply fold the legs inward once more. By folding the legs, the pin in the center automatically releases and you can fold the table in half to store it away. So whether it is an outdoor work table or you just need a little extra space around the house, with the innovative designs of Lifetime fold-in-half tables, you'll love the convenience and quality that make your events even simpler.

Lifetime started business in 1972 with its line of durable, movable basketball rims. Since then, the company has focused on becoming the world's leading manufacturer of folding tables and chairs. As of 2009, it has two versions of the folding table: the ordinary rectangular and round tables and the fold-in-half tables, all of which are easy to fold open for use and then close for storage.

Rectangular and Round Tables--Opening

To open Lifetime rectangular and round tables, set either table on its side and hold it there with one hand. With your other, pull the two sets of legs from underneath the table as far as they can go until they lock in the open position. Then secure the loose metal latch to hold the legs in place. Either by yourself or with a partner, lift the table and stand it on its legs.

Rectangular and Round Tables--Closing

To close the tables, simply reverse the process. Place a table on its side, slide the metal latch down towards the table, and fold the legs back in. When you hear the legs lock, your table is ready to be transported.

Fold-in-Half Tables--Opening

Spread open the table's legs by pulling the two halves of the table apart. This will give you a base to hold the table in place. Next, reach under the side of the table and press the release button. Pull up both sides of the table. You'll feel them lock into place. Stand the table on its legs.

Fold-in-Half Tables--Closing

Place the table on its side and press the latch release button found underneath the table. The two sides of the table will easily fold together, pushing the legs in as they do to make the table thin and easy to transport and store.
