Black Snap frame sign stand

Specification and how to use

The black A2 or A1 snap frame has a 25mm (1") wide border. The front profiles of the snap frame are painted black - the rear is silver/white.  The stand is supplied with one snap frame.  The Panel Clamp mechanism will support two snap frames for a two-sided display as long as the frames are the same size.

The top of the snap frame can be adjusted in height up to a maximum of 1.8m (about 6ft) in the case of the A1 frame - a little lower with the A2 frame as the bottom clamp bar should be fitted on the lower part of the telescopic pole for best results.

This product is intended for indoor use away from high traffic areas as the sign could topple over if knocked hard by passers by.  In very busy areas where jostling is a risk we have a more substantial base and pole combination called an InfoColumn (only stocked in silver).

Assembly Instructions

1. The pole is telescopic for height adjustment – use the parasol style lever to clamp the frame at the required height.  
2. The Panel Clamp unit is supplied with two clamp bars between which the snap frame is ‘pinched’.
3. The lower clamp bar (with hand-wheel towards the top of the fitting) is threaded onto the bottom pole, facing upwards.  The bottom of the snap frame sits on this lower clamp bar.  Set it to the required height - the lower clamp bar is normally positioned just below the lever of the pole.
4. The lower pole can now be inserted into the 2-part base (it is a firm push fit).
5. The top clamp bar (facing downwards to engage the top of the snap frame) is attached with a round black knob onto the top of the upper pole. 
6. Insert your poster into the frame and use the lever on the pole to bring down the top bar to clamp the snap frame in place.

7. Note: The poster should be inserted in the snap frame before clamping in position.  Once the frame is clamped onto the stand the poster is secure as the top and bottom snap edges cannot be opened.  To change the poster just remove the frame from the stand by unscrewing the ball finial at the top of the pole.

How to fit the pole into the base

Ensure this step is done on firm ground, such as a concrete floor. 
The bottom panel clamp followed by the base cover should be threaded onto the pole and held out of the way until the pole has been properly secured into the base.

The pole is a firm push fit into the heavy base (no bolts are required). 
First it needs to be introduced a short way into the base (enough to grip).  
Then lift the pole to raise the base off the ground and bring it down firmly on the floor.
Repeat until the pole is securely fixed into the base.
