FAQs

What is the maximum size artwork this easel can hold?

The Mabef M/34 is a table easel and is best suited for artworks that are manageable on a tabletop. While it doesn't have a strict weight limit listed, it's designed for display purposes, typically for pieces up to approximately 20-24 inches in height or width, depending on the piece's weight and how it's balanced.

Does the easel come assembled?

Yes, the Mabef M/34 table easel is designed to be used directly out of the box with no assembly required.

How do I adjust the angle of the easel?

To adjust the tilt, you typically loosen a knob or lever located on the back of the easel, move the display angle to your desired position, and then retighten the knob or lever to secure it.

What type of wood is the easel made from?

The easel is constructed from oiled, evaporated beech wood.

Is this easel suitable for heavy studio work?

This easel is primarily designed for displaying finished artwork or for presentations. For heavy-duty studio work involving wet paint or constant manipulation, a more robust studio easel might be more appropriate.

How should I clean the oiled beech wood?

Clean the easel with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents to preserve the oiled finish.

Troubleshooting

Easel is wobbly

Ensure the easel is placed on a flat, stable surface. Check that all adjustment mechanisms are securely tightened.

Tilt adjustment is stiff

Ensure the adjustment knob or lever is fully loosened before attempting to change the angle. If still stiff, check for any obstructions.

Wood finish appears dull

Wipe down with a clean cloth. Consider reapplying a suitable wood oil for beech to restore luster and protection.
