Before beginning assembly, please review these essential tips to ensure a smooth process:
- Check Parts: Verify all parts against the parts list before starting.
- Assembly Surface: Assemble the unit on a soft, smooth surface (like a rug) to prevent scratches.
- Tools: Hand tools are recommended. If using an electric screwdriver, reduce power and torque to avoid damaging the product.
- Alignment: Do not fully tighten screws until all parts are confirmed in place to avoid misalignment.
Parts and Hardware
The unit consists of various numbered board parts and labeled hardware (A-I). Ensure all items listed in the Parts List and Hardware List are present before assembly. Most board parts are labeled or stamped on the raw edge.
Assembly Preparation
The assembly relies heavily on a cam lock and pin system. Proper installation is critical:
- Cams and Pins: Screw the pin into the hole. Align the head of the cam with the lock pin. Turn the cam head with a screwdriver until tightened.
- Plastic Inserts: If a plastic part does not press into the mounting hole, loosen the screw counter-clockwise or remove it, then try again. Once in place, tighten the screw clockwise.
Step-by-Step Assembly
The assembly process is divided into 20 steps:
- Preparation: Install pins (A) into the main panels.
- Frame Assembly: Connect the side panels and shelves using the cam lock system (B) and wooden dowels (C).
- Structure: Assemble the main body, ensuring all cam locks are tightened correctly.
- Final Touches: Attach the footrest (17) and support legs (18) using the provided screws (D).
- Finishing: Apply protective covers (I) to exposed hardware where applicable.
