This guide provides essential instructions for the assembly and safe operation of your Husky 27 in. 11-Drawer Chest and Cabinet. Before beginning, ensure you have a 10 mm and 13 mm wrench or socket. Assemble the unit near its final intended location, as it is heavy and difficult to move once fully assembled. Always load the cabinet from the bottom to the top to prevent tipping hazards.
Safety Information
- Moving: Always push the unit, never pull it. Use the brakes when the unit is stationary to prevent rolling.
- Stability: Do not stand on the unit. Load from bottom to top to maintain stability.
- Operation: Lock drawers before moving the unit. Be careful when opening more than one drawer at a time.
- Restrictions: Do not attach or mount this product to a vehicle; doing so voids the warranty. Do not tow with power equipment.
- Handle Usage: The side handle is for moving the unit on casters only; do not use it for vertical lifting.
Assembly

Attaching the cabinet handle
Position the cabinet handle (C) over the holes on the cabinet (B). Secure it using the provided bolts (AA) and tighten with the supplied wrench (BB). The holes in the cabinet are tapped and do not require nuts.

Attaching the casters

- Lock the drawers and lay the cabinet (B) on its top, using packaging material to protect the finish.
- Attach the swivel casters (E) to the unit on the same side as the handle, inserting bolts (AA) through the casters into the cabinet.
- Repeat the process for the fixed casters (D) on the opposite side.
- Tighten all bolts with the supplied wrench (BB) or a 13 mm wrench/socket. Do not overtighten.
- Return the cabinet to its upright position.
Operation
Removing the drawers

- Fully extend the empty drawer.
- Push up on one release lever while pulling down on the other release lever.
- Pull the drawer outward until it is released from the slide.
Re-inserting the drawers

- Extend the drawer slides.
- Insert the brackets on each side of the drawer into the slots in the slides, ensuring they are properly positioned.
- Once inserted, close the drawer completely to set the slides.
Maintenance
- Casters: Grease the casters annually using high-quality bearing grease.
- Slides: Lubricate the slides semi-annually with high-quality bearing grease.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean drawer fronts and trim with mild detergent and water. Use auto wax to preserve the finish and protect against scratches. Remove grease and oil with a standard nonflammable cleaning fluid.
