6. Do I need other things?
We recommend that you buy a brush to improve the lifetime of your cloth (see "Table maintenance"), and lights. You can also look at our cues for a higher quality cue and our cue racks and scorers. If you are creating a games room don´t hesitate to call for advice.
The installation is usually quite straightforward although we would always recommend our own installation by our own trained fitters as the slate bed tables are very heavy. Our fitters would position the table, level it and leave it ready for play. If you choose our installation we will also give you a free accessory pack worth £50
Levelling a table is dependent on the type of table. On some tables the bottom foot plate that meets the floor turns and screws in and out, allowing you to change the table level with a twist of that foot. On other tables you have to slide a thin piece of material (shim) under the leg.
Generally, if you have a few strong people and a level, levelling a table is not very complicated. Have two strong people raise up the side on which the leg is that you need to adjust and slip your shim under or screw the leg up or down. Place a spirit level across the width of the table at one end and screw the table feet up or down until level. Repeat at the other end of the table, across the width, corner to corner. Finally place the level down the length of the table and raise or lower one end of the table by means of the levelling screws, adjusting both feet at one end by equal amounts until level along the table. Check levels again and repeat if necessary.
Now that you have the table fairly level, you can test it by rolling a cue ball slowly at various places on the table and see if it rolls true. Make your final adjustments based on the roll.
If you put your pool table on a carpet, wait some time for the table to settle into it before levelling.
Caution: Do not try to do this without the proper number
of people in the proper physical condition to help. Even a "light"
table is quite heavy and you could harm somebody. If you are
not sure call us.
After your table is installed, regular maintenance
will maintain the quality of the cloth. It is recommended that
the table be fitted with a cover to protect the table when in
not in use. The cloth should be brushed regularly, always brushing
from the baulk end, down the length of the table in the direction
of the nap. Return to top
