LINNMON / ADILS 100×60 step 1 of 3: Screw a mounting plate under each corner
Lay the tabletop upside down on a rug. Put a mounting plate (104217) on the five holes under a corner and fix it with 5 screws (108443) and a cross-head screwdriver. Do the same at the other three corners: 20 screws in all.
Tools: Cross-head screwdriver
Common mistake: driving the screws on with a drill. The tabletop is light, with a honeycomb inside: the screws hold in a strip of particleboard round its edge. A screw driven on with a drill or an impact driver after it is tight tears the wood round its thread, and then it just spins. Turn the screws in with a hand screwdriver and stop when the plate is held firm. The switch in the player shows what goes wrong.

Questions
What tools do I need for the LINNMON / ADILS table?
A cross-head screwdriver for the 20 screws. The legs turn into their plates by hand.
Can I use a drill?
Turn the screws in with a hand screwdriver. A drill or impact driver can turn them on after they are tight, which strips the holes in the tabletop.
The table rocks. What do I do?
Turn the foot at the bottom of the short leg to lower it until all four legs stand on the floor.
How much weight does the tabletop hold?
IKEA gives a maximum load of 50 kg spread evenly over it, and no more than 15 kg in one spot.
Should I tighten the screws again?
Yes: the manual says to re-tighten them about two weeks after assembly, and to check them a couple of times a year.
Safety
From the manual: for more stability, tighten the screws again about two weeks after assembly, and check them a couple of times a year. IKEA says the table is made for home use and is not suited to a screen stand.
About this guide
The steps, the part numbers, the counts and the order come from IKEA's assembly manual AA-844478-7 (2026-02-05). The outer size, 100 × 60 × 74 cm, is IKEA's published size. The tabletop’s size and thickness and the legs’ height and width are IKEA’s, the screws’ size a spare-parts seller’s; the plates’ size and where they sit are read off the manual’s drawings, so they are close, not measured. The 3D runs faster than real hands do.
IKEA gives the tabletop a maximum load of 50 kg spread evenly, and no more than 15 kg in one spot.
