Installation
The following tools/accessories are required to mount the shelves:
- Work gloves
- Mallet or hammer
- Flat piece of wood
Follow the diagrams in these operating instructions!
-
Place the feet onto the eight upright braces. Four feet should be placed in orientation A, and the other four feet should be placed on the other four upright braces in orientation B.
-
On the bottom the rubber corners function as feet, and on the top they cover the edges of the upright braces.
-
Take two upright braces in orientation A and connect them to two cross braces at the desired height. The feet should be level with the floor.
-
Start by inserting the lower cross brace first.
-
After inserting the cross brace into the first keyhole, insert the other end into the opposite keyhole that is at exactly the same height (the cross brace must be in a horizontal position).
-
Repeat these steps to assemble the other two upright braces in orientation A.
-
Take two longitudinal braces and connect them to the first set of braces. Each longitudinal brace should be inserted at the same height as the corresponding cross brace. Ensure that there is sufficient ground clearance for the first shelf.
-
Connect the longitudinal braces to the second set of upright braces, ensuring that they are inserted at the same height.
-
Use a mallet or hammer to secure the longitudinal braces to the keyholes. To avoid damaging the braces, place a flat piece of wood underneath the hammer. Place the piece of wood diagonally across two braces to ensure that the force from the hammer is spread evenly across the top of each brace (see diagram).
-
Repeat this for all four corners.
-
Repeat these steps to install additional braces at the desired height (not all braces are shown in the diagrams).
-
Insert the shelves into the braces.
-
To install the top section of the rack, take two longitudinal braces and two cross braces, and then gently insert the lower knob on each brace into the top keyhole on the lower section of the rack. Do not lock the braces in place. Take an upright brace in orientation B with the foot facing upwards and insert it into the top knob on the longitudinal and cross brace. Repeat this step for all three ends with the other upright braces. Start by inserting the cross braces, and then insert the longitudinal braces.
-
Use a mallet or hammer to ensure that the braces are fully inserted into the keyholes.
To avoid damaging the braces, place a flat piece of wood underneath the hammer. Place the piece of wood diagonally across two braces to ensure that the force from the hammer is spread evenly across the top of each brace (see diagram above).
Make sure that the ends of both upright braces are level and that they are vertically aligned. -
Repeat the above steps to insert the remaining cross/longitudinal braces and shelves.
-
Insert the braces for the top level first before installing additional shelves.
-
This keeps the rack stable and makes it easier to install the remaining shelves.
-
After you have finished assembling the shelves, you can stand the rack on a floor or fix it to a wall or vertical support using screws and/or dowels (not included).
-
Drill holes into the wall and screw the rack to the wall using the remaining keyholes. Use screws and dowels (not included) to give the rack additional stability.
Ensure that no existing cables or pipes (including water pipes) are damaged when drilling mounting holes or securing screws. -
To disassemble the rack, repeat the above steps in the reverse order. Start by removing all of the shelves.
-
Press the shelves out from underneath to remove them from the rack.
Care and cleaning
- Never use aggressive detergents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions, as these could damage the casing or cause the product to malfunction.
- Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
